🏡 Interested in Building an ADU in Andover, Massachusetts?

An Accessory Dwelling Unit can create valuable additional living space while helping homeowners prepare for changing family, housing, and financial needs.

An ADU can be used as:

✅ Housing for aging parents
✅ A private space for adult children
✅ A long-term rental unit
✅ A guest suite
✅ A multigenerational living arrangement
✅ An investment in your property’s future

Andover currently allows qualifying ADUs by right in zoning districts where single-family residences are permitted, subject to the Town’s zoning bylaw, site-plan review process, building requirements, setbacks, parking rules, and other applicable regulations. The protected ADU size is generally limited to 900 square feet or 50% of the principal dwelling’s gross floor area, whichever is smaller.

The approval process may involve:

✅ An initial property and zoning review
✅ Preparation of a site plan
✅ Architectural and building plans
✅ ADU site-plan review
✅ Building, electrical, plumbing, and mechanical permits
✅ Construction inspections
✅ Final approval and Certificate of Occupancy

At SAS Contracting & Development, we help coordinate the entire project—from the first property evaluation through permitting, engineering, construction, and final inspections.

Before beginning an ADU project, the property should be reviewed for zoning compliance, setbacks, lot coverage, parking, utilities, wetlands, septic or sewer capacity, and access requirements.

🏡 Thinking About Adding an Accessory Dwelling Unit to Your Haverhill Property?

An Accessory Dwelling Unit, commonly known as an ADU, can be one of the smartest investments a homeowner makes.

An ADU may help you:

✅ Increase your property’s value
✅ Generate long-term rental income
✅ Create comfortable housing for parents or adult children
✅ Add flexibility for changing family needs
✅ Make better use of your existing property
✅ Build long-term equity and investment value

Haverhill has an established development, application, and permitting process for ADUs. Depending on the size of the proposed unit, the property’s zoning, lot configuration, setbacks, utility connections, and other site conditions, additional local reviews or approvals may be required.

At SAS Contracting & Development, we help homeowners navigate the entire process—from the initial property evaluation and zoning review through design, engineering coordination, permitting, construction, inspections, and the Certificate of Occupancy.

Not every property is the same. Before investing in plans or construction, it is important to determine what type of ADU may be allowed and whether the existing property conforms to applicable zoning and dimensional requirements.

🏡 Could Your North Andover Property Qualify for an ADU?

North Andover homeowners now have more opportunities to add an Accessory Dwelling Unit to a property containing a principal residence.

An ADU can be created as:

✅ An attached addition

An ADU may provide:

✅ Additional rental income

At SAS Contracting & Development, we can assist with:

🏡 PROJECT UPDATE | WHITTIER STREET | ANDOVER, MA

Another successful project completed by SAS Contracting & Development LLC.

We’re proud to announce the successful completion of our portion of this custom dormer addition, transforming previously unused attic space into a future livable master bedroom while adding valuable square footage and long-term value to the home.

✅ Dormer rough framing completed
✅ New windows professionally installed
✅ Weathertight ZIP System sheathing completed
✅ Architectural asphalt shingle installation completed
✅ All framing completed in full compliance with the IRC (International Residential Code)
✅ Passed Rough Framing Inspection

From careful planning to precision framing and roofing, our team focused on delivering a structurally sound, weather-tight, and code-compliant addition built to last. Every detail was completed with quality craftsmanship and attention to detail to ensure a seamless integration with the existing home.

We’d like to thank our client for trusting us with this project. It was a pleasure bringing this vision to life, and we look forward to seeing the finished master bedroom once the remaining trades complete the interior finishes.

🚧 PROJECT UPDATE | 139 Ferry Rd, Haverhill, MA 🚧

Another major milestone has been completed as we continue preparing this property for demolition.

Over the past several weeks, we’ve been working through each required phase to ensure this demolition is completed safely, professionally, and in full compliance with Massachusetts regulations.

Here’s where the project stands:

✅ Hazardous materials (asbestos) abatement completed
✅ Rodent and pest abatement completed
✅ Water service disconnected, capped, and abandoned
✅ Sewer service disconnected, capped, and abandoned
✅ Utility excavations completed and inspected
✅ Environmental and site preparation completed

At this point, everything is in place. We are now waiting on National Grid to disconnect and remove the electrical service and overhead power line, along with the City of Haverhill issuing the final demolition permit. Once those final approvals are received, the old farmhouse will officially come down.

Many people think demolition starts when the excavator arrives, but in reality, that’s the final step of a much larger process. It requires extensive planning, environmental compliance, utility coordination, permitting, inspections, and attention to detail before a structure can be safely removed.

At SAS Contracting & Development, we’re committed to doing every project the right way—not the easy way. From environmental protection and utility coordination to final site restoration, our goal is to deliver safe, code-compliant, and professionally managed projects from start to finish.

We’re looking forward to sharing the next update when demolition officially begins. Stay tuned!

🚧 PROJECT UPDATE | Haverhill, Massachusetts 🚧

Demolition is much more than tearing down a structure—it’s a carefully planned process that begins long before the first piece of equipment arrives.

At SAS Contracting & Development, every demolition project starts with a strategic plan focused on safety, environmental responsibility, and full regulatory compliance.

Before demolition begins, our team ensures every required step is completed, including:
✔️ Certified asbestos abatement
✔️ Utility locating and coordination
✔️ Water and sewer cut & cap
✔️ Electrical disconnects
✔️ Rodent abatement
✔️ Environmental compliance
✔️ Permits, inspections, and documentation

From there, we implement a controlled dismantling strategy, separating materials such as concrete, wood, metals, asphalt, roofing, and other recyclable debris to maximize recycling and ensure every material is transported to the appropriate licensed recycling or disposal facility.

Our commitment is to protect our workers, our clients, our neighbors, and the environment while delivering demolition projects that are safe, efficient, and fully compliant with all Massachusetts state and local regulations.

We don’t believe in simply tearing buildings down—we believe in planning every step, executing with precision, and leaving every site ready for what’s next.

Thank you to our hardworking crews and project partners for another successful project.

Another project successfully completed by SAS Contracting & Development.

We performed a full driveway rip-out, installed a new crushed stone base, and finished it with 3 inches of fresh hot asphalt for a clean, durable surface. The project also included a brand-new front walkway with a granite step, along with a rear walkway seamlessly tied into the driveway for a cohesive look.

From start to finish, this transformation delivered both function and curb appeal—and another satisfied client.

Take a look at the before, during, and after photos to see the difference.
