The team at Mitchell is very friendly and responsive, but we ended up not moving past the design…read morephase. When we signed the design contract, we agreed to a budget range that included three pieces of work. The designs we got far exceeded the budget range. And the design with all the pieces of work we had discussed, was twice the cost of the TOP of the initial budget range. We felt a bit hoodwinked- they quote far lower prices so that you've already started the process (and paid a sizeable design fee) making it harder to start working with someone else. As a young family, we couldn't make doubling the budget work. If you have a budget you need to stick to, I definitely recommend finding another firm with more accurate quotes. We ended up working with a different firm that stuck to their quotes making everything much less stressful. We also felt that the other firm was more creative in their solutions. For example, we wanted to build an addition. The Mitchell designs all included building off the kitchen, essentially making our kitchen super dark. The other first gave us three designs, with only one building off the kitchen.

I called Hurley Testa to receive a quote on some minor repairs as well as a bathroom remodel and…read morebasement finishing. They responded timely to my request, spent a good amount of time assessing the damages and our ideas for the bathroom and basement and then NOTHING! No phone call, no email, NOTHING. I left multiple messages on the owner's cell phone voice mail, the company voice mail and email. Still NOTHING. After weeks of attempting to get in contact with the owner or anyone with the company, I have given up. Too bad for them and for those who plan to use this company, be forewarned.

I contacted Hurley-Testa Construction Co. to see what they could do. They were very prompt in setting up an appointment. Greg came out and evaluated the bedroom. He recommended building new walls with insulation (the two exterior walls had no insulation), adding another heating strip, and then would paint the whole room. Within three days we had a detailed estimate and the following week construction began. Greg estimated the project would take two weeks, however, they got everything done in a week and a half. Greg and his staff were very friendly and would call daily with updates. If there was ever a decision to be made, Greg would call and discuss before proceeding. He would update the contract with any changes, so the cost of the project was always transparent. After completion of the project, they cleaned the room and moved the furniture back. I am very pleased with the work of Hurley-Tesa Constuction Co. and I would hire them without a second thought for any future project. My bedroom is toasty warm and everything was done to my wishes.

Bryan and the entire team were very professional and supportive throughout the entire process. Bryan and Andre, our site manager, checked in regularly throughout the project and were very responsive.

He communicated with us throughout the project of installing a new Timberteck deck. His crew worked straight on through from start to finish without empty lapses of time. The men are so highly skilled. We continue to be happy with our beautiful deck. Therefore, we asked Ruy to install a Timberteck stair rail at our front doors, which also has withstood the test of time. We'd been concerned that installments like this would compromise the brick, whereby requiring a total rebuild, but a rebuild wasn't necessary. He also advise us on an easy and effective fix to divert water from flowing from the gutter and freezing to ice on those brick steps in winter. Based on the outcome of these projects, and our experience in their progression, we highly recommend this company.

Brutal experience with them back in 2022-2024. Would take weeks and, more than once, even months…read moreto get them to come back and do any work (see screenshots of my text interactions with them -- note the dates). They were supposed to build a new rubber roof. It started leaking on 3 separate occasions (which btw was never fully fixed -- we moved on to different contractors who did address the issues). And like I said, it would take months for them to actually come back and attempt to fix anything. Often they'd come by, look at the damage, then I wouldn't hear from them for multiple weeks. Meanwhile, more damage continues to accrue to the walls and ceilings. The internal fixes they applied for the water damage were just patch jobs. They just plastered and painted over. Meanwhile, the insulation behind the wall was soaked and accrued black mold that we had to address later. Also worth pointing out a major blunder at the beginning of the project (see attached videos and pics). They opened up the roof, and left it open for multiple days without doing any work. Well of course a major rainstorm came by (which was on the weather forecast well in advance). Alll that water poured into the house in the middle of the night setting off fire alarms. It was a nightmare to deal with on my end.

Mike was a consummate professional and does incredible work. I hired him for 5 custom radiator…read morecovers. He does Shaker-style, and they're beautiful. The quality is much better than the semi-custom made-to-order delivery options. It's a little more money but they came fully assembled, delivered up the stairs by Mike himself, and he made a few adjustments for my floors and moldings. What service! He prefers to deliver and work closer to his place so he can do measurements himself. I'd use him again!

Mike built and installed a custom vanity for us (photos attached). We have a very small bathroom…read moreand the available styles and sizes of vanities at Home Depot didn't match what we wanted, so I reached out to Mike, he came over to take a look, and provided a quote for the work. Building a custom vanity was a little more expensive, but we got so much more for what we paid. I selected Mike in part because when he came to look at the configuration of my existing vanity and plumbing, he had a clearer vision that he articulated for how he could build and install the vanity, and what the options were given the positioning of the plumbing. The other contractors I had come and look didn't mention the relationship between the dimensions of the drawers and open space and the existing plumbing in the wall. We also asked Mike if it would be possible to build a pull out step under the vanity that our 1.5 year old daughter could use to step up and use the sink (probably when she gets to be 2 years old or so). He explained his vision for that and it was perfect. Mike also built the style of the doors and drawers to match a style we had seen, and as you'll see in the pictures, it looks amazing. Mike was super easy to work with, very responsive, and provided a documented design spec that he sent to me for approval (which we made a few tweaks to). He delivered the piece on time and was flexible with his schedule in matching to mine to install it. He expected half of the price of the piece as a down payment, very reasonable, and received the rest upon delivery and installation. I ordered the vanity top custom from home depot and I selected the handles I wanted Mike to install. He used the top to ensure that the piece he built would conform to fit. I also ordered the tread for the step after brainstorming ideas with Mike. I personally removed the old vanity and disconnected the old plumbing, but that could be done by a plumber as well. Mike installed the new vanity against the wall, and I had my plumber connect the plumbing to the new faucet we bought after Mike had left. Overall, I can't recommend Mike highly enough. He is professional, creative, responsible, and I can tell he takes pride in his work. Thank you Mike, we are already enjoying the transformation to our bathroom that you helped make possible!

I figured it would add value to our home. They did an outstanding job. I was pleased at their response time and quickness to schedule the job. Last month, I called Brad about a leak, unrelated to his work, but needed help in solving this issue. He answered the phone promptly and we met the next day about my situation. Turns out, a previous contractor did some substandard work on a flat roof overhang, causing my leak. Brad was very thorough in evaluating my predicament. He explained what was wrong and the steps needed to correct the problem. Their skill set and carpentry knowledge saved the day. In my opinion, they are not just a gutter company. I believe they are a full service company that can correct any issue that may arise in replacing your gutters and downspouts. They listen to you "the customer" and apply over 30 years of construction/building knowledge to find a solution to your unique issue. I endorse B.A. Harris whole heartedly to solve your gutter needs & value them as a trusted contractor to work on your home. Thank you again for salvaging a bad situation in a timely, professional and quality manner.

Neal was clearly the most thoughtful of the contractors we had talked to and gave us some very sound recommendations. Everyone we know is jealous of our garage. We were so happy, we asked them back to do a kitchen/home remodel. Kim and Neal came to the house and spent time with us looking over everything and sketching out a tentative plan to do the job, promising more complete details and some tentative estimates "in a few days." Those days turned into weeks and my calls and e-mails went unanswered. Then I got an e-mail, apologizing for the delay and promising to get the project back on track. That was three months ago.

The job located in Medfield, MA was completed on June 7, 2014. Phone messages, emails with attached copies of the invoice asking for payment had fallen on deaf ears since then with Charles River Contracting. The homeowner, herself, who felt bad - was nice enough to offer full payment for the materials and installation. I thanked her and refused her payment since it was not her responsibility. I would never take advantage of an individual - whether a homeowner or tradesperson! A registered letter was then sent and signed for on August 5, 2014 by Neal himself, with no response. Another call was placed on August 19, 2014, to the business office and answered by the representative who first contacted me, she stated she would discuss with Neal and call back. "No" call back. Contractors and Home Owners please "BEWARE" of doing business with Charles River Contracting!!!
