"I had an outstanding experience with Real Painting and could not be happier with the results. The painting looks fabulous, and the service was of the highest quality. I received quotes from four painters, and Carlos compared very favorably in both price and expertise. Carlos accommodated every request I had to make adjustments to my project and made himself available whenever I tried to reach him. He was extremely knowledgeable about which paints would work best for walls, cabinets, ceilings, and the moisture levels in each room, as well as ways he might work with me to maximize efficiency while reducing costs. His team was highly professional, courteous, and skilled. They carefully wrapped and taped my furniture and home items in every room, always removed their shoes when in carpeted areas, and took great care to protect my home throughout the process. Carlos was referred to me by my realtor, who has had him paint her properties twice. After seeing the excellent work he and his t"

The team was friendly and worked quickly and efficiently to get it done before it got dark, and the quality of their work was excellent. Matt was very friendly and nice to communicate with as well, and always responded right away. I highly recommend MMP Construction to anyone looking for great quality work and excellent customer service."

"In 2021, I hired Eric to fix a water leak in my basement. I paid approximately $8000. Three months after the work was done, there was leaking again. He came over and told me that this was a different leak. After I saved up enough money, I was referred to an expert in basement leaks/foundations. He came over and completed the work. When he was doing the work, he proactively asked me who did the work previously. He said he was clearly not done by someone with knowledge of foundations. I have tried to resolve with Eric. At a minimum, I deserve a refund"

"RC Works did our bathroom renovation. We are happy with the process and the beautiful results! Andrey, Mariano and the team are professional, kind and easy to work with. Andrey is a wonderful listener and communicator. He responded to us promptly, managed the project efficiently and transparently, and kept us updated on the work and timeline. Big praises also to Mariano and Neto, who did the carpentry work, glass shower installation, among other tasks. They went above and beyond to deliver high-quality work, arriving on site with bright smiles and hard-working attitudes. We are also happy with the other team members, who are friendly and competent: tile installer for beautiful tiling, plumbers, electrician, painters and cleaners. Overall, we would highly recommend RC works."

"I recently hired Coen Brothers Construction on a thorough bathroom renovation, and the outcome was outstanding. Their quality was excellent, and I am delighted with the final result. Their sub-contractors were also great and worked at the same high standards as the Coen Brothers. Although we faced some communication issues at the outset, we eventually worked through them, and it significantly improved throughout the project. They paid attention to detail; when my project manager saw me stripping the trim for reuse, they recommended buying new trim and a lumber yard to get it. And it makes a big difference having new trim with clean, sharp lines. Their tile work took longer than expected, but the miter cuts the trim cuts, and the finish is excellent. They were consistently punctual, respectful of my home, and very tidy - tidying up at the end of each day. While the project took longer than anticipated, the reasonable cost and the team's meticulous attention to detail compensated for it. Coen Brothers Construction also expertly handled all necessary permits and inspections, keeping me informed every step of the way. Overall, I am satisfied with their work and would hire them again for my 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"
