He a very old school honest guy who does excellent work for the right price (not high and not low, just right for the quality) and sticks to his values. I would recommend him to anyone who needs projects done right even if it's not only carpentry as he's got contacts who he believes does the same quality work so he also does general contractor works and kitchen, baths, and interior remodeling.

We were initially introduced to Lenny through a friend when we were having a home inspection done…read moreon a home that we ultimately didn't end up buying. Lenny helped us to avoid what could have been a really big problem. A few years later, we finally bought our dream home and we hired Lenny to fix our family room addition. It needed new joists, subfloor, insulation, floor, drywall and plaster, etc. Lenny's crew did a fantastic job for us, at what I consider a very fair price. If you are looking for an honest contractor who does great work, give him a call.

We needed a new porch for our 1920's colonial. Mike from LJR met with us, analyzed the situation in…read moredetail, and gave us well-explained options regarding materials, timelines and aesthetics. Friendly, professional, and efficient, Mike and his crew gave us a result that was even better than we expected. As a favor to us, he also recommended an electrician for a separate issue and we were completely pleased with his work, too. Most importantly, we are very happy with our new porch, recommend LJR highly, and would happily work with them again on any project!

I have used LJR for many projects over the years and they have always done exceptional work. From…read morejobs as small as installing a new bedroom door to as large as overhauling an entire commercial building they can do it all. My favorite thing about working with them is they ask me about every detail down to the exact placement of mirror or the color/type of a light switch. I hate when contractors make decisions without asking the property owner's opinion and with LJR you will always have the final say. They are also very neat and clean and always put down tarps and keep the dust down to a minimum. Most importantly they are meticulous with finishes and will not cut corners. I highly recommend them for any job and I will use them again and again for future work.

We recently had our deck completely rebuilt by Boston Framers and we couldn't be happier with how…read moreit came out. We actually got their name directly from the deck manufacturer, who told us Boston Framers was excellent and highly recommended them. After working with them, I can see why. They started exactly when they said they would and showed up every day to keep the job moving. They even worked some weekends to get everything completed, which we really appreciated. Their carpenters were excellent. The workmanship was meticulous, the materials were all top quality, and you could tell they really cared about doing the job right. The price was very competitive, especially for the quality of work we received. I also made a few minor changes along the way, and they were very easy to work with and accommodated the changes without adding extra charges. It's not easy to find a contractor that is reliable, fairly priced, uses quality materials, and takes this much pride in their work. Boston Framers checked all those boxes for us. We're extremely happy with our new deck and would absolutely recommend Boston Framers to anyone considering a deck or other construction project. Five stars without hesitation.

Brutal experience with them back in 2022-2024. Would take weeks and, more than once, even months…read moreto get them to come back and do any work (see screenshots of my text interactions with them -- note the dates). They were supposed to build a new rubber roof. It started leaking on 3 separate occasions (which btw was never fully fixed -- we moved on to different contractors who did address the issues). And like I said, it would take months for them to actually come back and attempt to fix anything. Often they'd come by, look at the damage, then I wouldn't hear from them for multiple weeks. Meanwhile, more damage continues to accrue to the walls and ceilings. The internal fixes they applied for the water damage were just patch jobs. They just plastered and painted over. Meanwhile, the insulation behind the wall was soaked and accrued black mold that we had to address later. Also worth pointing out a major blunder at the beginning of the project (see attached videos and pics). They opened up the roof, and left it open for multiple days without doing any work. Well of course a major rainstorm came by (which was on the weather forecast well in advance). Alll that water poured into the house in the middle of the night setting off fire alarms. It was a nightmare to deal with on my end.

I had no idea if this was a huge issue or a small one. I called Mr. Handyman and the staff is so very professional. They explain how they work and how much it costs by the hour. They sent Amir who was very kind and professional. He showed up on time. He worked quite quickly. He found the problem, bought the parts, and fixed my issue. He had to come back to grout as the tiles needed to dry. He showed up on time the second time and also worked quickly. Luckily the issue was just in the baseboard and Amir explained how the damage happened and made sure to seal everything well. They are licensed and insured and all the workers have a minimum of 15 years of experience. I felt very safe hiring them. I am happy with the end result. Thank you, Mr. Handyman and Amir!

Paul helped us remove a stuck broken dishwasher without destroying our island, something the…read more"professional installers" could not seem to do. While this work did not involve a lot of carpentry, I'll share that Paul was: - Incredibly responsive. He answered my call asap and came the next day to help as planned. - Persistent. This thing was really stuck and Paul would not give up. He got it out after an incredible amount of work. - Courteous. Paul cleaned up everything after the job very thoroughly. - Went the extra mile. Paul noticed that we were missing a plug on our disposal so he drove to the hardware store, bought one, and came back to install it, saving me the trouble. All of this speaks to Paul's character and work ethic. Should I have any carpentry work, I would not hesitate to call Paul. In fact, now that I have his number, I'm dreaming up carpentry jobs!

Throughout the process he was highly professional, communicated with me regularly, and made me feel at ease. I would highly recommend Carlos & Alcantara Contractor for any general contracting needs!

We were so impressed with their services that we asked to work with them for some additional work after the initial project was completed. The project involved redoing our kitchen and bathroom. We used a 3rd party to design and purchase the items through them and relied on Marcelino and his team to demo and install the new fixtures, cabinets and appliances! Although there were hiccups along the way (something to expect when it comes to any renovation work), Marcelino ensured that issues were had were addressed promptly. Marcelino was upfront during our initial walkthrough quote and gave an accurate timeframe when the project could be completed. The second phase involved the installation of some recessed lights which was completed within 1-2 weeks. Very happy with the results! There were some minor issues after the project's completion but after mentioning these concerns Marcelino had his team stop by our place with a very quick turnaround time to address our concerns. Overall Marcelino and his team were professional and respectful of our property (made sure to cover our exposed furniture during the painting/demolition phases). Their price was also reasonable for the Boston area. I would strongly recommend Alcantara for any renovation projects you may have! We would use them again for any future projects we may have planned.

What a miserable experience. Pete was never on time, and cancelled last minute constantly whenever…read morehe was supposed to come and complete work usually while other workers were already at our house waiting for him (which we still had to pay for there time). He took thousands of dollars from us for a deposit and then said that our project would be delayed because he needed to move shops. He had already demoed our living room at that point which left us staring at a gaping hole in our living room for months. He would say that we were the next project in line and then would tell our designer that he had five projects ahead of us. He strung us along for months until we finally fired him. We had to go to court to secure some resemblance of our deposit back because he refused to give any of it back.
