"Job took approximately 3 weeks for a full overhaul of our front and back yards. Performed all of the necessary demolition (removed old bushes/plants, decayed fences, loose stone retaining wall) over the first couple days. When unforeseen overages occurred, such as repaired rotten wood on the house so the deck couple be attached or shifting and already installed section of the fence based on neighbor request, he was more then willing to swallow the costs and keep everyone happy. There was a delay of a few weeks to get the gates installed on the fences and deck but that was due to issues with the fabricator and not this contractor. While the job was more then I was hoping to spend, I'm extremely happy with the end result."

"Moreau Boas actually tore down my chimney from the roofline and up and did an outstanding job. Their quote was fair, their work was excellent, they finished the job on time and within budget, and they had a wonderful crew. One of the crew - Richard Gentry went out of his way to ensure the site was perfectly cleaned and spotless after the work was completed. I will gladly use them in the future for my roof and masonry needs."

"We had 4 large, and in various stages of dead, locust trees that we have been concerned would take out our roof if the wind blew the wrong way. They have been dropping larger and larger branches over the last few years. Called Jose a few weeks ago for an estimate and he came right out and gave me one. Decided to use him and he got his crew out the next day. Took the trees down without incident. Took the wood away that I didn't want. Left me with the wood I wanted and stacked it neatly where I wanted. My neighbor had a dead tree in his yard and they took care of him while they were here. I would definitely use him again."

I’ve spent over 15 years doing hands-on work in home services, mixing classic handyman skills with strong IT and home technology experience. I handle residential repairs, installations, and troubleshooting, along with computer setup, home networking, Wi-Fi optimization, TV mounting, AV systems, and smart-home devices. I’ve owned and operated multiple businesses, so clear communication, reliability, and clean work are just how I operate.\n\nI’m based in Central Massachusetts and work throughout Worcester County, Middlesex County, MetroWest, and nearby areas. If you’re not sure whether I travel to your town, just ask.\n\nMy goal is simple: show up on time, do the job right, explain what I’m doing, and leave your home better than I found it. I don’t upsell work you don’t need, and I don’t cut corners. If you’re looking for someone dependable who can handle both hands-on work and tech without bouncing you between contractors, I’m happy to help.

General handy man happy to help with all interior or exterior repairs/ replacements. Well versed in all landscaping and hardscaping at an affordable price
Start with a professional inspection. If damage is limited to a few bricks or the crown, a targeted repair helps keep costs and disruption to a minimum. Severe leaning, widespread mortar failure, or major fire damage usually signals it’s time for a complete teardown and rebuild. Your contractor will outline both price tags, but remember that rebuilding a failing stack is often cheaper than repeated patch jobs and the water leaks or fire hazards they allow.
Cracks provide water with an easy path into the masonry, weakening the bricks and mortar and increasing the risk of collapse or fire. Gaps can also let hot gases and sparks escape into attic spaces. Call a chimney pro as soon as you see cracking so they can seal small joints or recommend a larger rebuild before minor damage turns into a costly emergency.
Smoke rolling back into the room often indicates a blocked flue, a broken damper, or a drafting issue. Have a sweep inspect the damper, flue liner, and any obstructions right away. Most fixes involve clearing debris, repairing the liner, or adjusting the damper so the fireplace pulls air correctly. Don’t light another fire until a professional pinpoints the cause and confirms your system is venting safely.
Most policies cover chimney repairs caused by a sudden, covered event, such as lightning, a fallen tree, or a house fire. They won’t cover damage that stems from neglected maintenance or everyday wear. Review your policy or contact your agent before scheduling work to determine what documentation your insurer requires and what costs you will be responsible for.
Component life spans vary. Clay tile or cast-in-place liners last close to 50 years, while stainless-steel liners last 15 to 20 years. Mortar requires attention every 25 to 30 years, while crowns last 50 to 75 years. Use these numbers as a maintenance roadmap: schedule regular inspections, budget for future upgrades, and replace parts before age-related cracks develop into more significant problems.
