We bought a foreclosure in Beacon Hill that was a disaster. It was totally unlivable and everyone…read morethought we were crazy for thinking we could renovate it except Matt. He was confident he could pull it off and his assurance was a relief. It seemed like every corner we turned there was a problem with asbestos, old pipes, structural floor damage or wiring in the way. Matt was extremely adaptive and creative on the fly. His communication through everything was our saving grace. From steam pipes in the way or the floors caving in, it was extremely impressive to watch the solutions come into play. He had pipes rerouted or removed altogether and completely re-framed portions of our floors. One part of the floor was a brick floor over a basement that had started to cave in. Matt knocked out all the loose brick and poured a slab that tied into the solid brick. I had no idea how a giant hole in our brick floor was going to be fixed but he adapted seemingly without a hitch in the entire project. I would highly recommend Matt and his company Exedra!

Matt is amazing; I could not recommend his services more! My husband and I knew Matt through a…read morefriend and hired him to renovate our NYC apartment (kitchen and 2 bathrooms) after seeing the incredible work he's done on other projects, including his own homes. Matt is a true partner throughout the process, and gave me great advice every step of the way. This was my first remodeling experience, and his guidance was both invaluable and comforting - I felt like I was in really good hands. He worked closely with me in designing our space, and then handled every single aspect of our renovation - from sourcing materials, to demolition, to coordinating with the plumber and electrician, to installing our kitchen cabinets and appliances, and re-tiling and re-grouting both of our bathrooms with new fixtures and lighting. My apartment is pre-war and therefore a little tricky when it comes to making things look level and even, however, Matt figured out how to make everything look flawless and brand new. He always remained within my budget, and continually offered solutions for how to trim costs or source materials for less. Matt is also incredibly responsive; he and I communicated frequently throughout the day when he was working in my apartment, which I really appreciated. He was a pleasure to work with, and I definitely plan on hiring Matt again if I move (although he's made my current space so wonderful, I'm not sure that will happen any time soon!). Matt is a total professional - his work turns out beautifully, and he's a pleasure to work with.

He did all the work by himself which took a lot longer than we hoped. The only other downside was he didn't clean up a lot of the old hardware/nails before he installed the new deck.

He helped me to remove a load bearing wall in my kitchen, tile the floor to marry the two rooms, paint kitchen cabinets, build an island, remove a door and patch up with drywall, match existing molding that is 100 years old, custom build a closet. Greg is amazing. Amazingly strong, hard working, knowledgeable and tidy. He always puts down construction blankets so he doesn't walk on my floors. He is very personable and kind. The best thing about Greg is that he will fix things with long lasting solutions even if it takes more work or better material. You can trust his work. If I could give him 100 stars, I would because he also explains every step of the way so you know what was done. Lastly it is so easy to work with Greg because he is like a gentle giant. He really listens to the problem at hand and comes up with thoughtful solutions to with his vast knowledge of construction.

I've included photos of the end result for reference. I realize they may seem like small projects, but as new homeowners, my husband and I were so nervous about drilling through marble. Both installations were done perfectly and precisely on time. I forgot the name of the colleague who performed the work, but he was fantastic, too. After mounting the TV, he took the time to help my husband take the TV back down and attach all the cables and Apple TV before re-mounting it. I'm so happy to have found a local JC pro for home projects! I will definitely hire them again.

We recently had both a full bathroom and half bathroom renovated by Agalliu Contracting. We'd met…read morewith the owner, Matt, a few years back to quote the same, but were tripped up with life and not in a position to proceed. During the quoting process, Matt was very transparent in informing us about a variable plumbing cost that could exist based on the building's management and their requirements. It was more than a marginal increase to say the least. However, none of the other contracting companies even mentioned this; they built it into their pricing regardless of whether it was necessary or not. In addition to our research, this honestly was why we chose to reach out only to Agalliu when we were ready to proceed. In keeping with his transparency, Matt was up front in telling us during the re-quoting that we would have been better off financially to have done the work when we first met as everything had increased. Given the economy, this wasn't exactly news. That said, the price adjustment was actually less than we'd expected and the same 8-10 week timeline was quoted for the down-to-studs effort. Every phase of the project went well. The contractors were all polite and pleasant. They cleaned up well and clearly worked to avoid any collateral damage to any other areas of the apartment. The only schedule disruption was due to a condition with the building's pipes and not the responsibility of Agalliu Contracting. In short, after demolition Matt had strongly suggested we have our building's Super look over the other exposed pipes that were outside of our commitment to fix to ensure he did not have any issues or concerns that may be the building's responsibility to repair. In doing so, a pipe was identified as overly weathered and could possibly fail at some point in the future, jeopardizing the work we'd done (yes, we and the building have insurance but who wants to deal with that headache). After discussing with Agalliu, the Super, and the Building Management, we all agreed the piping needed to be replaced. Unfortunately, this was right at the point where the wall needed to be closed, so we encountered a minor delay. Again, definitely not the fault of Agalliu, who enthusiastically favored getting the repair done to avoid future problems even if this delayed the effort. Even with the delay, they still finished a week early. My wife and I were very happy with not only the end result, but also the process. The tile work is beautiful and thoughtfully applied, such as making sure cut pieces are the same size and symmetric. The finishes were also installed quickly and with consideration to our desired positioning. Matt was never more than a call or text away and visited most every day. He engaged with the Superintendent directly to minimize or avoid any impact to our neighbors and other tenants. If we had any questions, he was very quick to address and let us know our options if there was any downstream impact. We will recommend to anyone who asks and even discussed other projects as this one was completing. Thank you again.
