"I couldn’t be happier with the custom bookcase Gaby built for me! From start to finish, he was incredibly professional, punctual, and a true pleasure to work with. The finished product exceeded all my expectations. the color, the quality, and the attention to detail were all absolutely perfect. You can tell he takes real pride in his work, and it shows in every inch of the shelves. Highly recommend if you're looking for craftsmanship that’s not only beautiful but built to last."

"Beto (Humberto Morais) Beto built a staircase and replaced and my home soffits. He explained the work he was doing and completed the work on the exact days he told me. He built the stairs very strong with excellent heavy duty wood. He also replaced all the roof soffits and made repairs as needed. I have already received complements on the work he has done and the looks of it. The price was very reasonable also. Beto was extremely polite, professional and pleasant working in his job. I will definitely hire him again. Marty Dunlavey"

"The cabinets themselves were very well made, but the process and other aspects of the experience were less than great. Michael didn't pay much attention to the detailed drawings or project parameters provided by the designer, and didn't verify as-built conditions. As a result one of the cabinets was incorrectly sized and some floating shelves I provided were incorrectly installed. Because they hadn’t been included in the original quote, I had to pay an additional fee. Additionally ,communication and adherence to promised schedule and deadlines was inconsistent. Michael is a nice guy and I can tell he’s capable of doing some very good work, but I wouldn’t hire him again based on this experience."

"We recently completed a gut reno and second story addition. After engaging 10 different contractors, MP was the most communicative, interested, flexible and competitively priced. MP has a large in-house team of experts that work efficiently and adapt to the home owner’s needs and preferences. The employees worked 6 days a week and took great pride in their work. They were personally invested in our project and wanted to make it the home of our dreams. The team includes an amazing designer, Nataly, who helped with selecting finishes. The onsite foreman, Adriano, demonstrated expertise and kindness. Seichelle and Marco did an excellent job with operations, ordering materials and problem-solving. We have been back in our home for 10 months. Anytime I have an issue, Seichelle and the team have addressed it. They have gone above and beyond what is expected. We could not be more pleased with our project. We strongly recommend MP for your next project!"

"We’ve been working with Jorge and his team for about two months now on a major two-family full gut / reconstruction project in Watertown. The property was in serious disrepair (not a light renovation) and the scope has been complex — demo, excavation coordination, permitting, and preparing for framing and full rebuild. So far, Jorge has been excellent. His team has moved with real speed and professionalism, and he’s been extremely responsive throughout the process. What stands out is that he takes the job seriously — he’s organized, communicates clearly, and is willing to work through creative solutions when the project throws curveballs (which always happens on a heavy renovation like this). He also has a strong design eye and gives practical feedback on what will actually work in the field, not just what looks good on paper. As a licensed GC myself, I wanted to partner with someone I could rely on to help manage a project of this size and complexity, and Jorge has delivered. We’ve"

FAQs for arbor, pergola or trellis custom build projects in Cambridge, MA

Pergolas and gazebos are both outdoor structures, but there are differences between the two. A pergola has a slatted roof that allows partial sunlight to filter through, creating a light and airy space. In contrast, a gazebo features a solid roof that provides complete shade. This key difference influences the comfort and visual appeal of your outdoor space.

Prefabricated pergola kits require one to four hours of assembly, while custom pergola designs take an average of eight to 16 hours. Additional groundwork, such as pouring a concrete slab, leveling the site, and removing obstructions, may extend the installation process to several weeks, ensuring a secure and long-lasting build.

A standard pergola kit ships with everything you need—four support posts, rafters, top runners, support beams, and hardware for anchoring the frame to a concrete pad. Many manufacturers also bundle add-ons like retractable canopies, privacy screens, or modular sections that let you tweak the footprint. Because each part is pre-cut and labeled, the kit helps you—or your contractor—assemble a sturdy, attractive structure without extra trips to the hardware store.
