Get matched with top major home repair pros (general contractors) in Salem, MA

"I have found Perry Brothers Construction on Angie's List last year when I needed someone to install replacement windows in my 110 year old home. Because their bid was the most competitive and their work exceptional, I have since hired them to do a number of other home projects for me. Their work is impeccable, the crew is outgoing, friendly and respectful of my home, they clean up after themselves, and they go out of their way to ensure satisfaction. Bill (one of the owners) even talked me out of buying an expensive wooden beam for my living room ceiling. Instead, his crew built one for me using antique barn wood. Not only is the beam beautiful, Bill saved me $1.2k as well! I have already referred Perry Brothers to my neighbor who has since hired them to renovate her bathroom. And I am happy to refer them to anyone else looking for a reliable contractor."

"I called Richard to help me and my mother with our basement, which was damaged by water. She and I did not agree on what had to be done or the order, and she had been talking with contractors, which only confused her more. Richard advised me to contact the building department rst to make sure that the repair work would meet code for insulaon. He said that our insurance company probably did not allow for closed cell insulaon, which is very expensive compared to ba!s, so we will probably need to rele our claim. He then sent me a checklist, two chapters from his book that related to the insulaon, and referred me to two subcontractors. I have communicated with him by phone and email, and he responds almost immediately, something most contractors never do. Richard met with us to discuss our next steps so that we would know what to do and did not charge us for his me. Without his guidance, we probably would have go!en nowhere but frustrated. I know from another Angie’s List review of iCornerstone, that Richard is a good-hearted person who wants to help people, especially when they seem to be without resources. Richard is kind, generous, thoughtful, and respectful, and I wish that he could do the work for us, but he had other commitments and no longer does physical work for his clients. It’s sad because they rave about his skill, experience, and ethics. I was fortunate to meet a true professional who was only interested in helping me and my mother see our way through a difficult situation."

"Bob was able to repair the 3 doors in my home that were not closing correctly. Additionally he had time after the initial repair and was able to fix a few other doors that were also giving me some problems. You can tell by the quality of his work that he is very skilled and experienced."

"David and his construction team, were the best hire to do work in my home I honestly have ever had. They were professional, did nice work, courteous, and gave me a very fair price. They cleaned up even after I explained that I would take care of it ! Angie’s List should make special note of this feedback for quality recommendations for future customers seeking construction work. Thank you for allowing me to give you this positive feedback on Deyvin’s Construction. Mike Annese of Peabody, Ma."

"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."

"We recommend Carlos Real and his company, “Real Painting and Home Improvement”, without reservation for painting and home renovation projects. They do superior work for a reasonable price. Carlos is wonderful to work with. He develops a very realistic schedule and sticks to it. He is communicative, takes time to understand the needs of the homeowner, ensures that his crew is punctual and oversees the quality of their labors. The crew are polite, neat and very competent at their respective jobs. Last year we had “Real Painting” paint the exterior of our house. They were efficient, prompt and did an excellent job on our house and deck. We were so impressed that we hired them this year to renovate our guest bathroom. This consisted of tiling the tub area, putting on the fixtures, installing a vanity and toilet, and tiling the floor. We couldn’t be happier with the result! Thank you Real Painting and Home Improvement!"

"The workers came on the appointed day with a longer ladder, as suggested.    Terry called to ask if he and an assistant could come by earlier than the original appointment time because they had finished work scheduled in the area earlier than expected; that certainly worked for me.    He surveyed the roof, took pictures and reattached a loose shingle that had fallen into the gutter.   Terry showed me the pictures of the roof from many angles; they showed no other repairs were necessary at this time.  Terry asked if there was anything else that required attention, but nothing else was immediately apparent.  He gave me his card and explained that the company does general contacting work.  
I am very impressed with the speed and efficiency shown today and won't hesitate to call MMP Construction in future if I need general contracting work done.

"DiOrio Builders & Designers has been excellent to work with on several projects around our 1890s colonial home in Boston. Over the last few years, they have painted the interior of our house, installed hardwood flooring, rebuilt our front porch, installed French drains in the back, reinforced and repointed our granite foundation, rebuilt our kitchen floor and tiled it, and installed numerous lights and a range hood. The quality of work is top-notch and they were great to work with. Pricing was fair, communication was professional and timelines were met. I recommend them to all my friends."

"We recently completed a kitchen and bathroom renovation and are very pleased. Having previously practiced construction law, I was particularly impressed with Eric's communication skills, responsiveness, and willingness to answer any and all questions we had without getting defensive. I think that is a rare quality in the construction profession. His crew Mike and Dave always were pleasant and friendly with my kids and me in the mornings and were incredibly hard workers - working through that awful heat wave in mid June and finishing the job on time."

"We acquired a condominium on the 2nd floor of a 2 family house in Arlington. MA. The existing hardwood floors were beyond repair and we wanted to add a 2nd bathroom. In addition we wanted to integrate the existing sun porch into the living room to more than recover the area lost to the new bathroom, and install central A/C. We had estimates from three other contractors before we met with Pedro from Crystal Renovations. His pricing was very competitive relative to the other contractors, but that was mostly due to the others trying to add work that we didn't want or need. Pedro listened to what we wanted and worked with us to accomplish it. From the very beginning of the project until the end Pedro was always responsive and answered, emails, texts, and phone messages in a very timely fashion. He and his crew and subs were a pleasure to work with and any issues that arose were dealt with in a calm and professional manner. Before and during the project Pedro made several design suggestions such as recessed lighting on the sun porch, shower stall light, and new bath layout that definitely improved on our original thoughts. In the end the project came in on time and with a very small increase to the original estimate despite some challenges he and his crew had to work through. The best part, though, is the absolute impeccable quality of the finished product. We highly recommend Pedro and Crystal Renovations and plan to use them again in the near future."
