"I contacted Crystal General Contracting to repaint my house on short notice as I was preparing to put it on the market. Leonardo was extremely flexible in fitting my project into his schedule and exceeded my expectations. He and his team completed the work on time with great professionalism, and even took care of some light carpentry along the way. I will definitely be reaching out to them again for future projects in my new home."

"The Perry Brothers Construction team was outstanding at providing exactly what my family needed. Bill Perry, the owner, always listened carefully to any questions or concerns I had throughout the entire window replacement process. I never felt pressured to purchase products or services I wasn't looking for and was extremely happy with the results. Perry Brothers Construction is the only general contractor in Massachusetts and New Hampshire who I'd confidently reccomend to my friends and family. It was a pleasure to have Bill and his crew work on our home."

"JR and his crew were such a pleasure to work with. They were responsive, prompt, and hard working professionals. Our project involved replacement of soffits and eaves, replacement of two windows and a door, ceiling repair, sheet rock work, painting, and whole house pressure washing. We could not be happier. I would highly recommend JR and his crew for any of your home renovation/maintenance needs, big or small. They are the best!"

"Coming from a long line of builders, I couldn't recommend Joe and his team more highly. I've worked with Joe on a number of projects he is the best general contractor I have ever worked with. He is professional, communicative, incredibly talented, hardworking, and above all an honest person and a joy to work with. I've never worked with a general contractor that I've trusted more, his prices are fair and he always solves for the customer. The bathroom looks incredible! The quality is exceptional and we get tons of compliments on it."

"I highly recommend using Scott Curtice for any renovation project no matter how complex it is. We bought a house that was over a hundred years old that had not been renovated for decades. Starting from the planning stage, Scott was wonderful about redesigning the house in order to open up the space and bring it into a more modern look. He spent several sessions reworking his plan always taking into account our needs and desires. Once the actual renovation began, we ran into a number of complex structural issues with the house itself. No matter what obstacle came up, Scott and his team were able to find solutions. His team was efficient in their work and they were all always reliable. In fact, many of our neighbors were astounded that all subcontractors worked on the home daily and that they actually were busy the entire time they were at our house. In addition, the lines of communication between ourselves and Scott, as well as his subcontractors, were always open. They kept us abreast of the project's updates and always made suggestions for ways to improve the work for aesthetics and/or cost savings ideas. Scott’s work was beautiful and he and his crew paid attention to every detail. The majority of the house required a gut renovation and it came out exquisite. Even after the job was complete, he was always available for questions. I would highly recommend using them for any job you have."

Customers say: True professional

"We are so thrilled that we chose Joe and Jonathan from Home Pro Services for such a major home construction project! We had TWO bathrooms that were circa 1980s in our home and BOTH needed a gutting renovation. We had solicited several quotes, but Joe and Jonathan of Home Pro Services came as a personal recommendation from a friend, and we had already seen the beautiful work they had done. Home Pro's prices seemed lower/in line with market prices. We needed gutting of the existing spaces, some revision of electrical and plumbing, installation of walls, ceiling, floors, fans, tile work, fixtures. Joe made himself incredibly available. He is pleasant to work with. He is very responsive! He is highly attentive to details. He dispelled all of our myths of "the absent contractor". Instead, he updated us regularly with progress, by email and text, and we saw him nearly daily. Through these communications he helped us make intelligent decisions about the project. We appreciated his knowledge and level of care. He often had more than one solution or suggestions for a single problem, and let us talk things over with him before making a decision. As expected there were some unforeseen construction issues having to do with water damage etc. we faced along the way, but Joe helped us address these in a fair and equitable way. We also appreciated, given the timing of our project which was during the COVID outbreak, that he did not bring large teams of people into our home. The plumbers, electricians and painters he referred for our project were also highly qualified and respectful. The quality of Home Pro services by far exceeded our expectations! As my husband said early on, "Joe is an artisan". There was nothing we would change about our project. We can't wait to hire Joe and Home Pro Services again!"

"It is surprisingly difficult to find reliable contractors with good communication skills that do quality work, especially for these smaller projects. So I was pleased with how smoothly this project went from start to finish. A formal written quote was provided via email which I accepted and he scheduled the work for the following week. They completed it in less time than I thought it would take and did a great job. I will definitely use them again for future projects."

FAQs for major home repair (general contractor) projects in Arlington, MA

In many cases, it’s much less expensive to convert a bus than to buy an RV, especially if you’re considering a newer RV model, which can exceed $100,000.

Another huge benefit of school bus conversion is that you are in control of the renovation project. You get to pick your camper's new layout and all the appliances and furniture.

While school buses can easily cost $300,000 when they're new, you can often find used buses for just a few thousand dollars. These vehicles experience extreme depreciation due to government regulations; they can only be used for so long before they must be replaced. Due to those same regulations, other government agencies cannot purchase them for their own uses, so the consumer market is the only place they can go.

The length of time it takes to convert a bus depends on the scope of the project (and size of the bus), how much work is DIY vs. done by a professional contractor, and how much work you’re doing up front.

In general, expect at least a couple of months for a conversion, but larger conversions could take six months to a year. Remember: You can tackle projects as you go: Get the basic work done so that it’s livable, and then continue to enhance your living space over time.
