Get matched with top wood stairs and railings installers and replacers in Ashby, MA

"The project went extremely well. Gaby is a consummate craftsman and finish carpenter. As someone who built custom furniture in my early days, I am very familiar with woodworking and can immediately distinguish between good, quality work and Excellent craftsmanship. Gaby fits the latter! He does all the work himself and takes incredible pride in the quality of his work. He built out the shelving in our pantry and when completed, there was an issue with the height of each of the shelves. When I brought the issue to his attention, Gaby apologized profusely and was back at my house within 48 hours to remedy the situation. This is a situation where you get what you pay for! His pricing was a bit high but fair as custom-built cabinets go. The difference is justified in the quality of materials he uses and the attention to every little detail during installation. During COVID, we paid 50% up front so he could purchase the materials right away as the cost of aLL MATERIALS CONTINUED TO SOAR. Gaby is honest, friendly, highly skilled and fin to work with. The only criticism I have is every decision made and agreement made was on a handshake (Old-school). There was not a formal quote or any paperwork other than the drawings from our designer that I provided. He gave me a range on price and of course, when the work was done, it was the higher of the range. We had initially planned for 2 pantries built by Gaby but ended up only needing shelves in a modified pantry that had already existed which my builder had modified. There were no adjustments in his verbal quote or final price. I had wished at the time that it was in writing. Good communication. Always on time and said what he would do and did what he said! Always cleaned up and left the work space ready and clean for the next guy. I would be happy to speak with anyone or send photos of before and after. You can reach me at captainrogerk@gmail.com. Great work Gaby! Thank you."

"Kenny did an absolutely excellent job installing our sliding door. He hit some emerging challenges along the way and adapted to the circumstances beautifully. We are saving up for a window project and hope to hire him to complete the installation."

"Job done with care by Tim and at a reasonable cost. Will contact him and if and when I need future carpentry work."

"We could not be happier with Brandon's work, punctuality, cleanliness, personality, communication, honesty, pricing, and overall character. We actually had contracted to do some extra work for a few thousand. Day 1 of the job, Brandon calls to let us know that we do not need to do the work as he took the time and effort to get other opinions on the installation of a beam. Again, character. He could have easily installed, but he took the time to do right by his customer and that, in our experience, is essentially unheard of. The work he completed for us-on schedule-was more than we could have hoped for. He really does great work, listens to the customer (we are guilty of making many changes and talking far too much), but Brandon is beyond patient and willing to work with you. If you are looking to remodel a kitchen, bath, or in general, look no further than Superior. You are hiring someone who truly cares about his work and the customer. Rare in any business these days. We will definitely hire Brandon when the time comes for our next project-no hesitation."

"Fantastic. Anything unexpected was dealt with thoughtful and thorough consideration. I had very particular requests needed in the remodel and Mike Tran worked through every detail with me in a professional manner, even if my requests were a bit particular. He did a wonderful job slightly tinting my new floor in the kitchen to match the rest of the floor. My basement flooring needed a large patch replaced and he did that right away and tinted that beautifully as well. In addition, his crew were always efficient, considerate, and polite. I highly recommend Universal Hardwood Flooring. You can't go wrong. The pricing was fair. I had a lot of work done in my remodel and renovation of multiple spaces."

"The experience was mediocre. The owner was the employee, and he did a mediocre job. He was okay as a person, but I would expect him to be able to fix the garage door. But he came in to lubricate the rollers and to replace whatever he needed to replace. He just couldn't get the external key pad to function. He wasn't abrasive or anything.  They were okay. I wouldn't rush to use them."

"Needed walls painted in an open kitchen+living room space. About 100 linear feet of 12-ft-high walls. Rodolfo and his team were there at 8am that day as promised and finished the job (3 coats of paint) in one day. It looks great! Rodolfo is cool and easy to work with, as was his team. And unless I'm imagining things, my (wood) floors were actually a little cleaner after they were done than before they started. Price was very reasonable and I would definitely hire them again."

"Sam is a consummate professional and perfectionist that takes great pride in his work. His employees are equally skilled, polite and professional. When Sam commits to doing a new job he schedules the start date upon completion of his existing job. He starts a job and finishes it and does not bounce around from one job to another. The guys started working everyday at 7am/7:30am and worked until 5pm/6pm weather permitting. This work cannot be done in the rain and the temperature must be consistently above 45 degrees to start. We met Sam at the stone place to pick the veneers and bluestone for the steps and pavers for the walkway. Sam started demolition on April 17th and finished on May 3rd, 2018. Sharing a couple photos of the old stairs (Sam is the guy in the lower left of one of the photos) and the new stairs. I have absolutely no hesitation recommending Sam and his guys. They were a pleasure to work with. In case anyone is wondering, a railing is being made and will be installed (not by Sam). :)"

"Colonial Restorations was superb.   Our family very much enjoyed working with Brad Green and Tom Green.  

At the outset, they made thorough assessments of our family's barn, identifying several problem areas and offering multiple proposals for how best to address each (including strategies and estimates).  They walked through the different proposals with us, addressing all questions and discussing different options.  This was extremely constructive and important to the process. 

They demonstrated very clear understanding of post-and-beam wood construction.  They displayed great expertise in working with wood (white oak, red oak, hemlock) and with the tools, jacks and cribbing needed for this work.  They worked carefully, always putting in place the necessary jacks and cribbing in advance of each phase of this project.

They were clear about their schedule and were very responsible about communicating with us.  If there were a day that they would not be on site, they let us know ahead of time.  With the exception of a snow storm and an illness, they were on site five days a week from the first week in January till the second week in February, 2016.  

By the completion of this project, Colonial Restorations had made significant and important structural repairs to our barn.  This work was done with care, craft, accuracy, and to code.  (All elements of this project were examined and passed by the building inspector.)  Most important, these repairs respected and worked with the existing structure and materials of the barn.

We could not be happier with these repairs or with the work done by Colonial Restorations.  It was a pleasure working with Brad and Tom."

"I am grateful that I received a referral for Gabe's painting services. I needed to have my upstairs bedroom ceiling, a high stairway ceiling, and walls painted. Gabe's response time was quick, and he and his crew arrived on time. They were all very professional throughout the entire process. The price was affordable and fair, and to my surprise, they even painted the trim along the windows, floor and doors without charging me extra. Gabe ensured that the work was done professionally, and I am very pleased with the results. I will definitely be working with him again in the future."
