House Pilot
by AtlanticCribworks
Coastal homes require more than occasional maintenance — they require knowledgeable oversight.
House Pilot is boutique property stewardship for coastal homes led by residential architect Chris Bailow with more than twenty-five years working on houses across the Massachusetts shoreline.
Through periodic site visits and a structured observation process, we review building conditions, document changes over time, and help homeowners stay ahead of maintenance, repairs, and contractor decisions.

Atlantic Cribworks | House Pilot
Thoughtful stewardship for coastal homes.
Owning a home near the ocean means living with wind, salt, shifting weather, and long maintenance cycles that most houses never face.
House Pilot provides ongoing architectural oversight for coastal properties across the South Shore — helping homeowners stay ahead of maintenance, storm impacts, contractor decisions, and long-term resilience planning.
Through periodic site visits and structured observation, we document building conditions, track changes over time, and provide clear guidance so small issues don’t quietly become expensive ones.
Whether you live here year-round or manage a seasonal property, House Pilot gives you an experienced set of eyes on the house — and a trusted advisor when decisions need to be made.

In-person and remote options
Rooted in the South Shore. Built for coastal homeowners.
I live and work right here in Green Harbor, raising my kids on the same shoreline I’m designing to protect. I grew up on an island in Casco Bay, so coastal life isn’t an abstraction for me—it’s my entire frame of reference.
Whether you’re in Marshfield, Duxbury, Scituate, Hull, or anywhere along the South Shore, you’re working with someone who understands tides, storms, and flood maps because they’re part of my daily life, too.
Can’t meet in person? No problem. We can walk through your property, grant questions, and elevation pathways over Zoom, with the same clarity and fixed-fee structure.
