I hired A&C Painting for a fairly large interior painting job. I was not dissapointed!…read more Pricing was extremely reasonable... I got 3 quotes from 3 different companies. Claudiney and his staff were professional, clean, punctual and detailed. I will use A&C for all future painting needs.

Terrible project manager…read more We had Claudiney replace our deck, fence and basement windows in 2023. The deck and fence came out okay but we had a really hard time with Claudiney. First, he wasn't clear on what is required for permits. We had to find land surveyor ourselves and spend ~$2300 outside of the quote for land survey and architect drawing. During the project, he doesn't communicate well and he seems to get annoyed when we reach out to him. He didn't give us any heads-up about final walkthrough and when he needs to collect his final check. We had to take a Uber to get home just to meet his schedule. Last but not least, their workers damaged our foundation. We have asked him to fix this for 1 month. He said he is going to fix it but he never comes. Yes, he will lie to you! Overall, Claudiney is a terrible manager. Stay away from him!

This past summer, Custom Contracting did a huge amount of work on our house. They built a new deck,…read morerevamped our bedroom, remodelled two bathrooms and a kitchen, and did a lot of painting. We were very pleased with the outcome. I want to especially recognize the stellar work done by Bryan Lamoureux, head carpenter. For years, I had nightmares that the second floor of the house was going to collapse. When Bryan took the kitchen ceiling back to the bare joists, he found out that somebody had cut massive holes in those joists to run a pipe through them. This made the house structurally unsound. Bryan showed us the holes and proposed a solution to make the house sound. The "bounce" that we experienced while walking around on the second floor disappeared, and so did my nightmares. Bryan is a superb young carpenter with old-school knowledge and values. Thank you, Bryan! I also want to recognize kitchen designer Jane Scammon. We told her what we wanted, and she immediately drew up an inspired design proposal for us. We bought tiles and cabinets based on her design, and we love the new look. Thank you, Jane!

He didn't disappoint the house came out beautiful and the doors were put in perfectly. Before he was done we had our AC leak from the attic and stained the ceiling. It was a mess but Alex said he could take care of it a little later on because he had to go to another job. He text me came back and finished the ceiling and painted some old chairs. He is a man of his word and a great carpenter and painter. He will be working on my house for years to come it's nice you can have someone who does a great job and is trusting nowadays that's hard to find!!! Thanks Green Mountain Painting you're the best!!

This is now the second time we've worked with Rod and his crew. After interviewing several…read morecontractors to gut our small bathroom with a non-ideal layout, we ultimately went with Rod. Rod renovated our bathroom in May of 2017 and we were so delighted with the result (he turned it into our dream bathroom that we thought wasn't possible given the poor layout of the original), that we ended up hiring Rod to also renovate our kitchen in May of 2018. Neither of these were easy tasks since we live in an old Cambridge home that was built in 1916, but we couldn't be happier with the quality of Rod's work. The best thing about Rod is that he is reliable, he does what he says he will, and he will not stop until you are happy with the finished product. He is also just a really good guy. For example, he helped us repair some nursery furniture when it arrived damaged, just because he is a nice guy. If you're looking for a reliable contractor that does great work, look no further than Cambridge Home Renovations.

Unfortunately we had a very unpleasant experience with Rod Vaca and Cambridge Home Renovations…read more This was surprising since we had a positive first impression of Rod, and were impressed with his reviews online. I strongly recommend against using Rod's services. We paid an unnecessarily high price for our reno, yet received low quality work, and went through an exhausting and unpleasant process. After more than 8 months, our renovation is still unfinished and Rod stopped responding. We are now pursuing legal action. We hired Rod in September 2020 to renovate our home. Rod's team worked on multiple rooms, doing woodwork, painting, and finally, doing a small remodel of our kitchen. Rod charged a high price for our kitchen, but he assured us of high quality workmanship. Then we went out of town and Cambridge Home Renovations performed poor quality work while we were gone. Our kitchen shelves were not level, the window trim had gaps, our range hood was twisted and not level, and they left an electric plate in the middle of our wall. Rod said deficiencies would be fixed later on the "Punch List" and told us our payment for the kitchen was due immediately. We trusted him and we paid him. It is 8 months later and Rod has not returned to fix the Punch List items. In addition to the kitchen deficiencies, he also left gaps in our expensive wainscoting, peeling paint in our bathroom, and a light switch that doesn't work. Sadly, Rod is attempting to gaslight us and tell us these deficiencies are not his responsibility. For example, he said the kitchen shelves are fine, yet they are very slanted. Rod refuses to acknowledge that they are not level. We cannot believe the thousands of dollars we paid for these low quality, slanted shelves. It has been a sad and exhausting experience. It's not worth your risk to work with him. If you do hire Rod Vaca, be prepared to actively manage his team and regularly perform QC checks on their work, otherwise they will cut corners. You will need to confront Rod regularly about the workmanship. Do not pay him until everything is adequate. Do not believe him when he says things will be fixed "on the Punch List". He will simply stop responding and leave your Punch List money behind. The most disappointing part is how Rod repeatedly gaslighted us. He will say that the deficiencies are due to problems with your home. He will make you feel uncomfortable and unreasonable when you highlight deficiencies. But unless you do this, Rod's team will do sloppy work whenever possible.

I was referred to The Corner Cabinet by the tile store I was using for my bathroom renovation…read more When I called, Gerry answered. I explained my predicament. I was in Mexico on vacation & my bathroom renovation was in progress. I'd intended to reuse my existing vanity but it turned out the old vanity had water damage. I explained my taste & what I was interested in (Shaker style,dark wood furniture style vanity with matching mirror). Gerry quickly directed me to look at a few styles online. He then met with my contractor & the final selection was made. The vanity came in very quickly. It's in place and it's just perfect.

Once the project started all efforts were made to furnish superior workmanship and excellent professional results. Always paying attention to details and offering useful suggestions showing how much they all were invested in making the best results. Great people and we have found a solution for any future projects. We expressed how grateful we were for the end result. You would be advised to seek this contractor if for nothing else peace of mind and a project within your budget.

What can you say about a complete bathroom renovation project that was completely without stress…read morefor the home owner? From Chris's first site-visit that included clipboard notations and photos I was impressed. The entire process was so well managed with timely notification of the project start, the multiple subcontractor visits, and handling of permitting and city inspections. What a pleasure to deal with a contactor who is inherently honest with great communication skills! The quality of the work was first rate, and any difficulties in the project were pointed out in advance to allow for the proper solution, and without additional cost. Chris used multiple subcontractors for all specialty work that included electrical, plumbing, sheetrock, plastering, and floor/wall tile. Ergo, the finished product was pure quality. The work space was cleaned daily and all workers were very respectful and polite. Assuredly I would use Chris for any and all future projects.

Designworks Company has given us outstanding service and finished products. We are customizing and…read moreupdating our condo. Designworks gave us a sparkling new hardwood floor and cushiony top-of-the line carpeting on the 2nd floor for the first job. Paul came highly recommended by friends and quite frankly when you see his work it sells itself. We went with them even though the estimate was higher than another contractor because this company bases their estimates off the costs of the highest priced supplies. The real cost depends on the quality of product you choose to have installed. So these estimates are truely accurate if you want the best product in your property investment. Given the amount of stress I was under due to planning our wedding in 3 months, moving and changing employers, working with Designworks was a stress relief. When the work was complete my house was sparkling. They vacuumed the entire house, no foot prints, saw dust or any trace of their presence was left behind! They handled demolition, moving heavy appliances out of the kitchen and recommended tiling for the entryways to preserve the life of the wood. Being a new homeowner I was so thankful for Paul's knowledge. He clearly communicated all costs and any decisions we had to make. We just hired Designworks to update our bathroom venthilation system and toilets this past April,2012. Again, so happy with the work. For all our future home improvement and customizations, I know where I'm taking my business.
