"We experienced a house fire and needed a tremendous amount of work done inside our home to make it safe and liveable again. From the beginning, Rich and his team were very professional and understanding of our situation. They worked with us and our insurance company to make sure everything was done right and brought up to code. We ended up with the most beautiful home and a lot of peace of mind, as it is much safer now than before the fire. Our family is so grateful to 3 G's Construction for their hard work and patience throughout the process."

"I hired WR Builders Inc. for a major renovation of our home’s exterior, including new siding and windows. The team did an outstanding job, delivering high-quality work with a focus on detail. They were respectful of our property and worked diligently to complete the project on time. The new exterior looks fantastic and has greatly enhanced the curb appeal of our home. Their professionalism and the quality of their work have earned them my highest recommendation."

"Take home message: Joe DaSilva from SILMAC Construction is a reliable contractor who produces a great result and is easy to work with. We purchased an older home this summer and worked with SILMAC on a major renovation including full kitchen and 1.5 bathroom renovations, as well as updates, structural work and repairs throughout the home. Joe has been responsive from the start and worked with us on our timeline, starting work as soon as we purchased the home. We are now on week 16 of SILMAC's quoted 8 week turnaround time, but this is largely due to change orders we have made as we learned more about the home. Joe has brought in a talented team to do the work. Joe is knowledgeable and has good advice, and is willing to discuss and price out different scenarios for you before you make a decision about what to move forward with. He was an excellent resource when considering multiple options and saying "we can do it, but I don't think it's worth it for you." This really helped us stay on budget! Overall, our new home is completely transformed and we are very happy with the result. Communication has been by phone, text and email, which overall has worked well for us, but occasionally things have been miscommunicated or misunderstood. Just general advice for any construction project, keep in mind that your contractor is busy and to make your expectations clear, send reminders and document decisions. Overall, Joe was very reliable and easy to talk to and clarified anything we asked about. Everyone on his crew was very nice to work with, but specifically we wanted to mention Antonio, who may be one of the nicest people we've ever worked with! Joe's billing process was clear, transparent and if he left anything out or if we requested clarification or corrections, they were worked out quickly. We have completed several renovations in a smaller home with different contractors over the years, and this overall experience with SILMAC was better than any of our other renovations. We would work with SILMAC again and have already started discussing work that we hope to do sometime in 2020/2021. We are working through our punch list right now and will update this post or add another review if anything changes from what we've written here."

"We wanted a design and build firm to make design/cost tradeoffs. It went great as the project was done well, under budget, and quicker than expected. They act as a general contractor and you can be as little or as much as involved as you want. For things we had strong opinions on we met with the subs also. We've been in the space 6+ months and haven't had any problems. Our basement has been dry (they installed a perimeter drain)."

"It is surprisingly difficult to find reliable contractors with good communication skills that do quality work, especially for these smaller projects. So I was pleased with how smoothly this project went from start to finish. A formal written quote was provided via email which I accepted and he scheduled the work for the following week. They completed it in less time than I thought it would take and did a great job. I will definitely use them again for future projects."

"Sanfer was the general contractor and worked on the project diligently. He was very responsive throughout the project. Painting and plastering was outsourced to a sub contractor. However, Sanfer’s crew worked on remodeling the kitchen and bathroom. There were some delays as we made changes in scope of the work. Overall, I was happy with their work."

Customers say: True professional

"I was going replace the existing decking because of never ending maintenance. I looked into the various types of decking and rail systems available and found it to be very confusing, the material is very expensive and not a simple install. Having used iCornerstone before I contacted Richard as to the best way to go. Richard cam up and photographed and measured the deck and then arranged for a visit to the Cape Cod Lumber showroom to view the various systems and styles. After selecting what we wanted Richard wrote a specification for us with drawings to obtain quotations for the material that would be required to complete the work. After purchasing the material Richard had recommend a contractor that was familiar with this type of work and we decided to hire him. The work was done in about 16 hours time and I could not have been happier. The work included the removal of the old deck floor, railing on stairs and railing on the front side of the deck. There was very little waste when the job was completed which is important due the cost of material. All the old material was disposed of properly and the site cleaned before the contractor left. All in all I could not have been happier as there no headaches on my part."

FAQs for major home repair (general contractor) projects in Watertown, MA

In many cases, it’s much less expensive to convert a bus than to buy an RV, especially if you’re considering a newer RV model, which can exceed $100,000.

Another huge benefit of school bus conversion is that you are in control of the renovation project. You get to pick your camper's new layout and all the appliances and furniture.

While school buses can easily cost $300,000 when they're new, you can often find used buses for just a few thousand dollars. These vehicles experience extreme depreciation due to government regulations; they can only be used for so long before they must be replaced. Due to those same regulations, other government agencies cannot purchase them for their own uses, so the consumer market is the only place they can go.

The length of time it takes to convert a bus depends on the scope of the project (and size of the bus), how much work is DIY vs. done by a professional contractor, and how much work you’re doing up front.

In general, expect at least a couple of months for a conversion, but larger conversions could take six months to a year. Remember: You can tackle projects as you go: Get the basic work done so that it’s livable, and then continue to enhance your living space over time.
