The owner of Maize Restoration does not take criticism well.

Shame on Google for allowing negative reviews to be deleted. The contractor license number he lists (#192899) is not registered to him or his company!! A quick search on the official Massachusetts contractor portal (https://contractorhub.mass.gov/s/hic-contractor-search) shows that this license belongs to a completely different company elsewhere in the state, not in Framingham. That alone should be a serious red flag. My wife and I paid nearly $15,000 for what was sold as a "Comprehensive Project Evaluation," which was supposed to include architectural plans, engineering, cost analysis, and fully rendered 3D designs. Instead, all we got was one useless Zoom call, no plans, no engineering, and an inflated proposal padded with double charges and outrageous labor rates (for example, $130 for just two hours to hang a mirror). What we ended up with was nothing of value for our money: shady paperwork, inflated fees, and dishonest practices. If you are considering doing business with this company, take this as your warning: don't let him fool you. Run.

DO NOT HIRE. We should have known after they no-showed our pre-construction meeting. But at that…read morepoint we had shelled out $5500 for a "comprehensive project evaluation" where the owner Chase didn't listen at all to what we wanted and we felt stuck going forward or we would lose our $. We were supposed to be under contractor Eddie but at the last minute were switched to Chase's little brother, Andrew, as the contractor, and let me just say, his online reviews spoke for themselves and I should have refused to work with him. Not that he ever really showed up to check on things after the first week and didn't communicate how we asked him to (email) until after the project was basically done. But he made a fuss when I communicated with the subcontractors who were constantly in my house bothering me with questions while I was trying to work from home and when he wouldn't respond to me. He regularly forgot to invoice us, and still hasn't sent us our last invoice despite our project being "finished" 3 months ago. We had problems with basically every subcontractor. Plumber's apprentice didn't listen to his boss and cut a hole in the middle of our closet floor before double checking what the plan was or talking about alternatives. Didn't tell us what he was doing or when, so we weren't able to move all of our baby gifts and he just did his work on top of our unborn baby's clothes and toys getting spray foam and debris all over everything. Ruined the stain on the wood floor of the closet too and just generally made a mess around the house everywhere he went. We really liked how thorough the electrician was at first and ended up having to expand the scope of the work to remediate our remaining knob and tube which we were happy to get done. But then he showed up unannounced weeks after the project had been substantially completed to finish one last small thing and used our spare key to let himself into our house and didn't say ANYTHING until he was standing behind me at my office door and I was in the middle of a visit with a patient, whoaaa boy THAT IS ABSOLUTELY NOT OKAY. We were supposed to have a $700+ final cleaning the day before our housewarming party to show off the new bathroom, confirmed by Andrew himself and guess who no-showed that too?? My family spent 12 hours cleaning up all of the construction area and then Andrew had the nerve to say we weren't supposed to have a cleaning that day. We had the email records of him confirming the date and time of the cleaning which is why I had demanded to communicate through email in the first place because Andrew couldn't keep track of anything. He blamed the Tile Shop for losing our order because it took him over a month to pay for it and get it processed. After the project was "substantially completed" we were asked to provide a punch list of the things that needed to be finished or fixed, so we did, and my husband spoke with Andrew and came to an agreement about how and what would be handled. Andrew and Julio then came and did 2 of the 5 things agreed upon, ruined the stain on our hand-built antique vanity in the process and broke the wires on our brand new washing machine stacker kit rendering the unit controls unusable. Andrew then proceeded to ignore two emails over the course of the month asking when they were coming back to finish things. Nelson and his team were the only good thing about this project. Nelson's eye for detail caught things (like a really bad paint job) before I could even bring it up, and he was consistently paying attention to things that needed to be fixed. He truly cared about the outcome of the project whereas Andrew clearly did not and Chase was not involved at all despite being copied on every text and email. I think I can sum up Maize's overall ineptitude and lack of attention to detail by telling you that they put up a construction advertisement sign several weeks after the project was done, in our NEIGHBORS yard instead of ours. Not that I would want to advertise their work even if they had gotten it right.

I tried them originally through their introductory furnace inspection. They came out and inspected…read morethe furnace, and said the furnace was fine but our thermostat was broken and they'd replace it for $300. I told them I would do it myself, and reinstalled the original thermostat, which worked fine. 2 months later (in December) the furnace stopped. I called them, they said they would try to get here that day. We waited all day with no response. They came the day after and said they needed to order a part, but could not tell us when it would arrive. Into the weekend, after 2 full days without heat, they said to get heat on the weekend would cost $1200, or $700 if we waited until Monday or Tuesday. We chucked them and called another company. That company said this was a common problem and should have been caught in the inspection. They could come on the weekend to do it for $1000, or do it on Monday for $500. I shouldn't have called back after the thermostat issue, but I sure won't call again, and recommend anyone else also look elsewhere
