Brusa Home Improvement, formerly known as "Central Mass Handyman" is owned and operated by Chris Brusa. Established in 1994. Licensed, and Insured. Excellent references. Jobs are priced by the job, or as some customers prefer by the hour. Flexible hours, and rates.
"Overall Rating is an A+++. Project came out significantly better than we could have wished for. Chris Brusa , owner of Brusa Home Improvement was phenomenal, both as a contractor and as a person. We had a soaking tub and small shower stall removed. Chris created a linen closet where the shower was, installed a new 60" X 36" walk-in shower, porcelain wall and floor tiles, niche's, accent tiling, grab bar and exhaust fan. We purchased most of the materials since we wanted some very specific colors and materials. Of course there were a few challenges - like the pocket door became unattached and the accent tile was not your standard mesh-backed tile. We also added custom shelves in the niche's as well as installing a new exhaust fan in the second bath with insulated ducting and new external vents. Amazing how scope creep can happen. Chris took it all in stride. Chris managed and scheduled the work and the few subcontractors (i.e. plasterer and plumber). All were high quality craftsmen and genuinely nice people. Very accommodating. His fees were very competitive but we found that initial scheduling with contractors will require a wait. One that we found to be very much worth it. No only would we hire Chris again, we will recommend him and his subcontractors to anyone needing their services."

We provide services in all aspects of home improvement but tend to specialize in decks, siding, paver, patio, and basement remodeling and installation. RORHI has been awarded the #1 Trex deck installers for the last 4 yrs.
"I was with the contractor that made me think that because my good credit I was getting a good financing interest around 7% and he did not tell me that my granite steps had to be removed, he told me after the loan went through at a rate of almost 14% at this moment I would like to cancel the project, I am under a lot of stress and having back issues I am afraid that because I take time off from work I am not going to be able to pay for this high interest loan."

With more than 15 years in the market, working in the construction area, we have a good experience in New construction and remodeling, this includes kitchens, bathrooms, floors, decking, painting and more:
Measure the length of each section in inches, add 1½ inches of overhang at both ends, then divide by 12 to get linear feet. Repeat for depth (standard depth is about 25 inches). Multiply length and depth in linear feet to find the square footage you’ll need. Accurate figures help you order the right amount of material and avoid costly returns.
You determine the replacement frequency by assessing the durability and maintenance requirements of your countertop. Countertops constructed with laminate require replacement after 10 to 20 years, while countertops made of concrete, marble, or stainless steel remain in service for 50 years or more when maintained properly. Regular upkeep and high-quality materials extend lifespan and ensure lasting performance.
Kitchen countertop replacement takes one to three days to complete. Projects with a few large countertop slabs finish within one day, while installations that involve several custom shapes or extensive cutouts require additional time. A professional team removes the old countertop and installs the new one in a precise, systematic process that guarantees a secure and flawless result.
The average labor cost to replace kitchen countertops is $15 to $30 per square foot. This cost increases when installing complex materials such as porcelain or poured-in-place concrete. Contractors charge for both installation and additional services like cabinet support and precise cutting. Skilled professionals complete all work efficiently, ensuring that each countertop is securely and neatly fitted.
The best countertop material for your kitchen depends on your usage, design preferences, and maintenance requirements. Quartz counters offer superior stain resistance and low maintenance, making them ideal for everyday cooking. Granite counters provide exceptional heat resistance and a distinctive natural look, though they demand regular sealing. Choose the material that aligns with your lifestyle and kitchen design goals.
