Size of Buildings:

Lot 1: 4,901± SF footprint, Lot 2: 2,428± SF footprint

Size of Project:

Lot 1: 1.50± acres, Lot 2: 1.15± acres

This project involved the construction of a new 5-bedroom, residential dwelling and pool on a steeply graded lot with signification ledge, and the relocation and expansion of an existing 4-bedroom dwelling on another lot. The existing house was picked up and rotated onto a new foundation within the extents of the old foundation to correct a non-conformance to the front yard setback.

Supporting site infrastructure including a stormwater management system, utilities, pavement (Lot 1), porous paver driveway (Lot 2), and landscaping. We designed a large underground drainage system that would collect runoff for both sites and filed a joint stormwater report for the two sites. CDG also navigated the permitting process with the Hingham Historic District, combining modern designs while also staying true to the historic character of the area.

Over the past 25 years, I have worked with dozens of engineering firms ranging in size, as well as specialty. In that time, I have come to consider Crocker Design Group as a real standout in the industry. I particularly appreciate the company’s responsiveness and competence, as well as their overall attitude and commitment to problem-solving. Gabe and his team have been a pleasure to work with, their dedication to providing solutions, no matter the challenge, is a testament to the culture and ethics of Crocker Design. As a developer, I can say with honesty that they are incredibly talented and a true pleasure to work with.

I have worked with Gabe Crocker of the Crocker Design Group on various projects for the last five years. I am counsel to a large company that has worked with Mr. Crocker and his team on 5 or 6 development projects in Massachusetts. In each instance, Gabe Crocker and his team fulfill their responsibilities as Civil Engineers, but in most cases go much further. If we need research on local zoning or other ordinances the Crocker team is ready to get the information we need. If we need someone to step forward and coordinate the activities of other design professionals, Crocker is ready to fill that role and do it very well. Gabe also has the unique ability to make effective public presentations during the permitting process. Not all engineers can provide both technical knowledge and good “people skills”. It is a pleasure to work with Crocker Design.

I contracted with Crocker Design Group to have my home residence surveyed and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Gabe, Shane, Vinny and Chris are the ultimate professionals. As an individual homeowner, I was worried that my job wouldn’t get much attention due to larger development projects taking precedence, but this wasn’t the case at all. The team was prompt, thorough, and explained every step of the process carefully, including walking the property with me to explain the nuances of the survey. The plot plan was very detailed and delivered promptly. I’m recommending Crocker Design to my friends with similar residential survey needs.

I’ve experienced Crocker Design’s passion for problem solving in several successful Real Estate Development projects in Eastern Massachusetts. Gabe and his team consistently go “above and beyond” to help us present our projects in the best possible light to Planning Boards, ZBAs, Conservation Commissions, and all related town government officials.

CDG’s work is regarded highly by permitting authorities that we appear before. CDG invests the time to thoroughly understand each assignment and delivers solutions that are on point, on time and on budget.
