Get matched with top major renovation multiple room pros in Concord, NH

"As a testament to how happy we were with our first renovation provided by the Curtice Group in 2021, which provided completely new kitchen/dining/mudroom/bath, we hired Scott and his team again in 2024-25 for another major renovation. This job was composed of 3 main parts: a gut remodel of our main bathroom, renovation of a large attic space (about 700 sq ft), and whole-home conversion from steam radiators (gas) to heat pumps including removal of all radiators and a chimney. The bathroom now is attractive and more functional, the attic adds a large amount of useful space as an office/kid room/guest area, and central air makes a more comfortable climate. I’m a big fan of the design/build concept, because you really don’t want to separate those two elements into different contractors, and if you find a talented company, they can handle all aspects of the job fluidly. Scott Curtice has a real knack for design, he is attentive and cares about details, and he will perform carpentry and touch-up work as needed. Moreover, he handled all the project coordination so that we could do the jobs that we do well, which do not include home renovation."

"We had the need to renovate/remodel our Master Bathroom, 1st floor bathroom, and our kitchen. We started interviewing prospective contractors, which in its own is a challenging experience. Some people acted like they wanted the job, others postponed appointments or cancelled all together. Bob Ayotte came to our home, sat down with my wife and I and listened to what we wanted, or at least what we thought we wanted at that point. He offered some ideas and concepts, but deferred to our vision. He took the time to visit each room, the spaces below them, the spaces above them, the wiring, the plumbing, the ventilation, etc. with an attention to detail. He asked lots of questions, took in my answers and my wife’s answers, which at times opened our eyes because our answers didn’t always match. There was never a sales approach, just a consultative approach. By the time he left, I said to my wife, “If his price is in the ballpark, and his communication and follow up on the proposal is professional, we have found our contractor.” Indeed, the price was in the right range, and the communication and follow up could not have been more professional. Bob delivered everything when he said that he would. He took the time to walk us through the proposal and answer a great number of questions. We came to agreement and decided to move forward. My experience with people who own their own companies is that I run into many people who are either “artists”: people who gifted in their craft who fail at running the business aspect including communication, or “business people” who are great at running the business, but fail at the art of their craft. Bob was so good at the business aspect, that I legitimately worried about his ability to deliver on the art. If you share that concern, or my view on artists vs business people, let me assure you that Bob is both. We tackled the master bath first, as a separate project. Everything went exactly according to schedule. We met with Bob’s tile subcontractor, Brian at Nashua Tile Center. We picked out what we wanted, and awaited his estimate. My wife chose some very nice tile, and we ended up $900 over our expected budget…$900 over Bob’s original estimate. Over the course of the remainder of the projects, this would be the only cost over-run which was not due to us adding some new scope of work, like deciding on a bench for the shower, or for a glass shower door instead of the original shower curtain concept. We more than made up for that budget over-run in credits that came back to us in other areas, including being under budget on tile for our kitchen and 1st floor bath (which of course, allowed us to add more scope to the job anyhow). All in all, aside for things that we CHOSE to add to the project, we were roughly $200 over budget for all three rooms: Master Bath, 1st Floor Bath, and Kitchen combined! The Master Bath Project from start to end took 4 weeks, just as Bob had outlined for us. It was delivered on time, and within budget. Further, his sub-contractors for tile, electrical, plumbing, plaster, painting and floor refinishing treated our home with great respect throughout the process, always taking time to prepare the area for work, protect our floors, take precautions to control dirt and dust, and to clean up every day when the work was done. Bob’s crew of himself, Mike, and Austin were friendly, knowledgeable, and hard working. I worked from home throughout the entire project, so I saw first-hand how they went about their business each day. The finished product, our Master Bath, is amazing. Friends who have seen it say that it looks like something they would find in a spa. The work was fantastic. All permits and inspections were handled by Bob and team, and they were flawless. We were excited to move on to the kitchen and first floor bath. A friend of mine had helped me with my kitchen cabinets, so they were supplied independently. Everything else went according to plan. As I stated above, the same crew from Ayotte Home Improvements, and the same sub-contractors came in, treated my home and my family with great respect, and delivered the job on budget, and on time. Bob went out of his way on several occasions to help me out with items that came up where he could either save me some money on something, save me time on something, or just help me to move a fridge, or remove a fridge, just a bunch of items that he really didn’t have to do, but he did because I believe he is just genuinely a nice guy who wants happy customers and successful projects. Toward the end of the kitchen and bath project, it became evident that we would be foolish to not extend our new colors and woodwork into our dining room and living room. Bob just rolled with the changes, managed his sub-contractors and adjusted accordingly as we added scope (and cost). He was incredibly patient with us. Throughout the entire process, the professionalism and communication never waned. Bob and I exchanged emails and text messages on a regular basis. The artist and the business person never conflicted. The project plan was accurate each week. The payments and dollars owed were always correct. This project went so well, we have Bob and his team back to add a two car garage and mud room now."

"Wallpaper removal = A; plastering = A-; painting: C+. We were disappointed in the overall experience. They were kind enough and their wallpaper removal and plastering was great, really solid—but on the final day, they rushed with the painting to get it done on the original time frame, and while one room was top notch, another was above average, and the bathroom was very sloppy. There was wall paint on our bathroom tiles, vanity, and shower; unsanded/unsmoothed plaster chunks that were just painted right over and were unsightly and lumpy; peeling caulking; parts where the paint was crooked or misaligned with baseboards; paint dribbles on floor and utensils on counter; and they did a poor job cleaning up, with plaster dust everywhere, paint to be cleaned up in the bathroom, and paint and plaster dust in, on, and around our cabinets. One of the crew members’ painting skills was just rushed and poor and it detracted from the others’ skills. By the time the job was over they rushed to get out of the house and did not carefully complete a walkthrough."

"Pedro renovated about 80% of our 1890s 5-bedroom Victorian home. The work was uniformly excellent and completed on schedule, despite the interruptions caused by the early phases of the pandemic. Pedro is an absolute pleasure to work with, and he maintained excellent relationships with us, the architect, and his subcontractors. His estimate was reasonable as were the change orders. We were lucky to find him!"

"Back room looks beautiful! During demo, room was sealed off from rest of the house to keep dust and debris contained. Tom and Eric always made sure things were cleaned up at the end of the day. Kitchen project, my husband and I picked cabinets out and T & E worked with us and were great when we needed modifications to make it all work. They were here longer than expected and that was due to some surprises on our end and they handled it amazingly since I'm sure we upset other timelines for their next projects! The price was very reasonable and approximate date was end of May 2015."

"Monique, Eduardo and their team were amazing to work with. I would recommend them to anyone. They did an incredible job on my house renovation. Everything was organized efficiently making it easy and hassle-free. They took care of it all: plumbing, electrical, painting, floor sanding and finishing, carpentry, guttering repairs, etc. The project was on budget and on schedule. The whole team were professional, courteous and punctual. They went above and beyond to make a 160 year old house look beautiful."

"
Antonio communicated clearly with me, every step of the construction process.  After removing the siding, there was additional water damage underneath that required additional work.  He carefully showed me and explained what had to be done, and we revised the scope of the work.  My husband and I felt that he showed a lot of honesty and integrity in carefully outlining and showing us additional work needed, that could not be seen until the siding was removed. We felt he was very fair with us in his pricing for the scope of the work.

He helped us review the composite siding options and warranties, and brought us samples for the siding and decking, at different price points and explained in detail differences between each. He and his crew came punctually and on the schedule that Antonio had laid out for us.  They were meticulous in their clean-up as well.

The quality of Antonio's work, as well as his careful product research and commitment to our satisfaction, totally surpassed our expectations.  We do not hesitate in recommending Antonio, and plan to have him renovate our bathroom in the Spring."

"This is the second time we have used MMP Construction for a large-scale renovation and both times, we were thrilled with the results and with the service level. Matt (the owner) is friendly, fair, and quick to communicate. I would (and do!) recommend MMP for any renovation you plan to undertake."

"Vinny is a fantastic contractor to work with. I have had Vinny work on multiple renovation projects at our home over the last year and half, and have had nothing but positive experience. He is humble, very professional, responsive, no shortcuts, hard working, and perfection in every work he does. He is punctual and prompt on his schedule. He has a great network of contacts for other trades (plumbing, electrical, plastering, hvac, you name it) and helps identify the right people to use for the job. Based on my experience, every single one of them that came with his recommendation were great to work with. I would absolutely recommend Vinny and VC Construction for any home renovation projects, and would not hesitate a bit to hire him for any future projects."

"This was my second time working with Diorio Builders and again they were stellar! We hired them to finish our large unfinished basement into a rec room, bedroom, bar, and bathroom. This was a big project that covered a lot of areas and Derek and James excelled at every stage. They were always straightforward, polite, and very hard working. They wrote up a detailed contract describing the entire project in phases so everyone's expectations were clear, and kept me updated as to their progress through each phase. They brought issues they found to my attention right away along with ready options for how to fix them. Their attention to detail is superb - their team tiled almost a thousand square feet and there isn't a single one out of place. They have an excellent eye for aesthetics and offered ideas when I was unsure how to integrate the existing structure including a gorgeous and functional knee wall with trim around the edge of the new bedroom, and elegant columns enclosing the rec room supports. They always offered ideas without any pressure or upselling. I was very impressed and happy we picked them and highly recommend their work."
