My family had the tools but NOT the know-how to build up-to-code stairs for the public. We called upon our 2015 porch 'hero' company, Progress Contracting Corp., owned by Tim & Nicole Fiorillo to ask if they could somehow give my husband and son the ins and outs to do goabout building the stairs. While this company may build high-end homes, Tim knows the value of mentoring others to build well-structured safe things that stand the test of time--Progress Contracting listens and they make their clients happy. West Roxbury's Stratford Street Church was over-the-moon grateful to get Progress Contracting Corp's gift of time and assistance with the measuring, mitering, sawing, mentoring, etc. that allowed my husband, Peter Low, and our son, Aidan, to construct them a set of amazing 'rolling/locking' stairs for the Church. Years ago, Progress Contracting Corp. saved my family from a $50K porch disaster and they became extended family to us. With their help this much-needed project cost my family $150-ish but it was a priceless gift to the Stratford Street Church near us. Good contractors are out there so make some progress on your home improvements--call Progress Contracting the first time. They're based in Franklin but they're often building in Westwood and West Roxbury. You won't be sorry; they're just good people building great things.

He communicated with us throughout the project of installing a new Timberteck deck. His crew worked straight on through from start to finish without empty lapses of time. The men are so highly skilled. We continue to be happy with our beautiful deck. Therefore, we asked Ruy to install a Timberteck stair rail at our front doors, which also has withstood the test of time. We'd been concerned that installments like this would compromise the brick, whereby requiring a total rebuild, but a rebuild wasn't necessary. He also advise us on an easy and effective fix to divert water from flowing from the gutter and freezing to ice on those brick steps in winter. Based on the outcome of these projects, and our experience in their progression, we highly recommend this company.

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.

We intended to have McInnis refinish approximately 1,600 sqft wood floors for us. Agree upon 50% down, 25% on final coat and final 25% after completion and drying of entire project. Have a SIGNED contract by both parties to this. My husband met with McInnis, showed him our house, gave him a check for 50% of the total job up front. McInnis indicated he would start on the Saturday after we closed on our house. We thought it was great because that meant we could move in that much faster. Day 1: No Show - texted hours later saying he'd be in the next day. Day 2: McInnis and one helper arrive, indicate they will stay for as long as it takes to make up for the previous day to keep us on our timeline. Husband and I leave, return 12 hours later to find only 30 minutes of work had been done. Day 3: Helper arrives alone. I ask if anyone is joining him and if he could call them on speaker so I could hear for myself they were indeed coming. "Other person" confirmed they were on their way. We call McInnis, he says he's on his way. We say we're picking up some breakfast and will be back in 25 minutes. We get back and all the equipment is GONE. Helper is GONE. I immediately call him. **He then proceeds to ignore my calls, sends a text informing me all communication will be via text "So there's no.** He agrees to come back and continue the work, work which he's already been paid to do. He does a rough sand (does not include edges) of two out of the 8 spaces. As we found out that evening when we came back to inspect the progress. We had other sub contractors coming in to do work once the floors were completed. Day 4: "Don't rush over (to let us in), no one is answering my calls." - McInnis talking about his helpers. Day 5: Morning text - demands we give him more money, otherwise he's not coming back. He is NO WHERE NEAR the 50% deposit. No to mention, this is not what we agreed upon in our contract. At all times we were more than happy to pay him. He just didn't do it or show up. Long story short: - He stopped replying to texts. - We had to find another contractor - New contractor estimated McInnis performed about $500 worth of work - We had to pay additional $7000, on top of the $3000 deposit I paid McInnis, to finish the floors - Went to small claims court to try to recoup any of our money. SAVE YOUR MONEY. Hire a reputable hardwood floor installer. We have not seen a single dime returned from McInnis.
