We hired Boston Best Construction (BBC) to complete a kitchen island and small remodel project in…read moreour Boston condo. We consulted with several contractors and ultimately settled on BBC due to the competitive price, references, and availability. We worked with Eduardo and his team throughout the duration of the project. We are very happy with the outcome. The Quote & Final Price. Of those we contacted, BBC took the least amount of time to get us a quote. The quote was also the most detailed of the ones we received. Eduardo included renderings of the island remodel and surrounding space as well as a detailed breakdown of materials and labor. The quoted price was very competitive -- it was among the lowest. BBC completed the project for the quoted price in spite of a few unexpected complications we encountered along the way. Quality of work. We are extremely happy with the quality of the work performed. We were very up front about certain key requirements going into the project and Eduardo did a very good job making sure to adhere to them. For example, we wanted to make sure the island cabinetry matched our older, discontinued, cabinetry. Eduardo was able to match our own cabinets very closely without impacting the price. We also had a number of other very specific requirements regarding cabinetry arrangement and Eduardo stuck to it perfectly. We got what we asked for. Communication and experience. Eduardo and his crew kept the dialogue going throughout the project. We spoke regularly via telephone, email, and text message. They listened to our questions and concerns along the way and made adjustments based on our input. They were very good at explaining when certain things made sense and when they didn't. Eduardo and his team were not afraid to speak up when they thought their input would lead to a better result. For example, Eduardo and one of his team members (Daniel) had some suggestions about how to cut the granite to wrap around some steam pipes adjacent to the island. This resulted in a much better finished appearance and the additional cost was negligible. We are glad we listened to their suggestions as the final result is better than we had expected. We had a great experience with BBC and would use them again. We recommend them for anyone considering any type of project for their home.

Furthermore, they were kind enough to keep their dust and debris to an absolute minimum while my family and I were living through the renovation!!

My husband and I used Sergio's Renovations to completely renovate our second floor, and we are…read moreabsolutely thrilled with his work and with the process of working with him. Sergio is smart, honest, hard working, a good problem solver, and really listened to us about what we wanted, even when we changed our minds about details along the way. His team did fantastic work, and he took care of all of the aspects of the construction for us (plumber, electrician, tile work, glass work, painting, etc). All of his employees were trustworthy and considerate. The scope of the project was converting our second floor into 3 rooms plus a bathroom. Sergio did a great job of offering good ideas for layout, materials, etc, but also being very responsive to our ideas and feedback. He stayed in regular contact throughout the whole job, stopping by regularly, and finished the work very close to the original timeline (he said around 2 months, and it might've been 2.5 months, but we also added on a couple little things to the project). He also stayed on budget! We loved working with him so much that we immediately hired him to overhaul our basement, which is a slightly bigger project, and he's started on that already. I very highly recommend Sergio!

Victor and his team did a terrible job working on our house. We contracted them to remove all of…read morethe paneling and replace it with drywall, as well as remove and replace all of the doors in 4 rooms of our house. Not only do the doors not work, meaning that they don't close all the way - if at all, but they didn't remove all of the paneling from the rooms we contracted them to remove it from either. In addition, they also painted some rough drywall around one of the doors as though it was door trim, in the hopes that we wouldn't notice the fact that they didn't even bother to complete putting the trim on the door. Now that we've started working on having the poor work done by Home Verse completed by someone else, we've also found numerous instances where the paneling wasn't removed either. I've attached photos of the paneling we've found in various rooms, as well as some of the drywall issues we've encountered, and a photo of the painted drywall next to the door frame that they didn't install the trim on. Stay away from this company, and hire a different contractor. When contacted about the issues listed, and sent the following photos of what we found, no refunds or compensation of any kind were offered.
