They were incredibly quick (responding within the first 45 mins of my Yelp request ) to respond when I discovered a water leak coming from outside. Since the source wasn't obvious (potentially an ice dam, roof issue, etc.), I really appreciated how quickly and thoroughly they assessed the situation. They were able to identify both how far the water had spread inside and pinpoint the exact source of entry from outside. Once the issue was identified, they moved fast to fix it properly. After repairing the exterior source, they took extra precautions inside, treating the affected area to prevent any potential mold, installing new insulation, replacing the ceiling and smoothing everything out, and finishing with a clean paint job. You'd never know there had been an issue as it was repaired well. Jean, in particular, was fantastic to work with. He was very accommodating to my schedule, acted with urgency throughout the entire process, and made a stressful situation feel manageable. He clearly explained the plan, the reasoning behind each step, and made sure I felt confident that the problem was fully resolved. Overall, a smooth, professional, and high-quality experience from start to finish. I wouldn't hesitate to use Trust Contractors again.

I had trouble finding a contractor due to demand with Covid. Whatever you do, don't do what I did!…read more Do not enter any contract with Everett Mitchell Design and Construction! Everett Mitchell, like other reviewers say, seemed reasonable and personable UNTIL the contract was signed. Then the nightmare began. I became physically ill from my interactions with him. Work started Oct. 1. He knew I lived out of state! He knew his project had to be completed before my contract with a siding company could start! It's Oct and siding needed to be completed before Thanksgiving. First invoice demanded payment within 24 hours and said I had to sign and signature meant happy with work. Also, contract did not follow the payment schedule required by MA law - he received payments before the law says he could charge for it. Within the first few days of starting work, he had a 20% increase in the costs of an already expensive project i.e. "extra work orders." I think he knew that this additional work would be needed and deliberately did not include it in the contract. I had no choice. Then because I did not send the additional 20% check overnight he stopped work for 5 days and I did not know if he would return until 10:30 the day he returned. No work being done, construction all over the front yard, the tenants using the back door...5 days! When he changed how the work would be done because of errors caused by his inability to understand the work required (2 half posts against the house were not constructed) and the design had to be changed, I accepted that a lot less work to be done. Frankly, I would have preferred that he complete the work as stated in the contract, but at this point, 2 weeks in, I could not wait for him to be gone! I asked for the credit to be determined immediately , like he asked for extra work order and checks within 24 hours. He said credits would be calculated at the end of the project! Well, it was Everett's way or no way - the credits he provided during his "final contract audit" were, as he would say, a "joke". Everett Mitchell has no employees - everyone was a subcontractor. The only reason the project looks good is because of the skills of the carpentry subcontractor he hired. I had discussed at length that he was planning for more steps than needed to the porch - he charged me for 6 - turned out to be only 3! When I asked him how the walkway would be constructed, I found out that he had not taken into account the slope and sent him calculations showing a step would be needed to have a flat and safe walkway. Well, he demanded a change order and more money to make the walkway safe. At this point I was not going to give him any more money. So he built an unsafe walkway from the porch to the sidewalk with a dangerous slope in winter. He was constantly telling me how wonderful he is and how I was so lucky to have him to do the work. I should be "grateful." With the final contract "audit", when I was supposed to get credits, the credits were ridiculously low. I think the credits for work not completed were much more money than the small payment that he had scheduled at the end (less than $2000.) I agreed to send him more money, but not the amount he requested which was $3,500 !?! I had spent 3 hours writing up my explanation of the amount of money I was willing to pay to get this behind me - his response that it was a "joke." Then he told me he had not paid the mason (note another reviewer said the same thing.) Property owners have to pay subcontractors when contractors do not. He also said he'd put a LIEN on my property. I became so stressed that I began to become physically sick whenever I interacted with him. It was always "his" way and you are expected to be grateful. I was way out of his league. And, the sad thing is, he knows what he is doing, it is deliberate and he is happy to do it! Apparently he has been able to get away with it. Don't become the next victim! I do not recommend that you hire Everett Mitchell Design & Construction.

I…read morechose Everett over other contractors because of his innovativeness, problem solving, and professionalism. One example is I had an issue with my jacuzzi tub in that if anything went wrong mechanically I wouldn't be able to fix it without breaking down the wall my neighbors and I share. Everett was able to come up with a solution so that I can get to the motor without any hassle. Everett knew this was my only bathroom to shower in and he had the project done in 1.5 weeks! I thought I was going to have to live in a hotel for a month or so! Everett and his workers were very thorough, respectful (wore masks the whole time in a room without air conditioning), efficient, and clean. Even though it wasn't a huge project Everett treated it like it was, which I appreciated. His costs were very reasonable too despite the increase in materials these days. I look forward to having him do other renovations this summer! I highly recommend Mitchell Design & Construction for any home projects.

The on-site manager, Jonathan, was great, and they gracefully and quickly responded to additional requests and changes of plans we requested, including entirely changing one of the windows. Even our neighbor reached out to tell us how nice and respectful they were and asked us how we found them. The answer is that I just saw that they were well-reviewed on Yelp, so I'm adding my review here too. Their pricing was very reasonable, and their work was exceptional. They replaced a shower system, which involved breaking existing tile and seamlessly re-tiling the affected section after the new shower was installed. During the process, they covered the opening with plastic so we could continue using the shower (even though it only took a couple of days). The re-tiled area blends perfectly with the rest of the shower (see attached pic). You'd never know it was repaired. They also repaired significant water damage from burst pipes, replacing and adding insulation and drywall, installed recessed lighting with dimmers, replaced a window and glass shower doors, swapped out an awkward set of swinging bathroom doors for a proper door, and took care of several long-overdue household repairs. Everything was completed quickly, quietly, and efficiently. If we ever need renovations in the future, we'll definitely be using them again.

We used Essex restoration for some renovation work in our condo in 2011 and were really pleased…read morewith the results. Walter (the owner) is a very down to earth guy who tells it like it is. I never felt that he was trying to "sell" me anything. His team of carpenters are all craftsmen and do a very good job. They also all seemed very nice. Walter gave us a price for the job, and that is what we ended up paying - the price didn't creep up in mysterious ways. We interviewed a number of contractors for this job, and Essex's quote came in somewhere in the middle. While they are not cheap, they were by no means the most expensive contractor out there.

Walter and his team did a great job on our kitchen renovation. The project was a complete gut job…read moreand took about three months, from Jan - March 2015. The project only went about 2-3 weeks over the original estimated time period, which was miraculous considering we had record snow fall that winter. The project included new cabinets and lighting (including recessed lighting), the removal of one wall and a pantry, and installation of a new pantry, sink and breakfast bar. Walter took a few weeks before the project started to plan the renovation according to our budget. We went through several design options before we arrived at a plan that we liked and that worked with our budget. Once the old kitchen was out, the team got to work with the re-build. The lead carpenter, John, all too happily shoveled his way into the condo the minute any snow-induced parking ban was lifted, and he did a great job with all the carpentry work and provided overall general support of all pieces of the project. Eric was the project manager, and he and Walter (the owner of the company) met with us at least once a week to check on the progress of the project, and to check in on decision points as they came up. Walter provided invaluable advice when it came to picking the tile and the granite, the floors, the lights and even the appliances. When we were slow or just overwhelmed with too many options, Walter met us at the tile store and then at the lighting store to help guide the process along. We kept our old Wolf stove, and John took the filthiest pieces of the exhaust fan to his house and washed them in his own dishwasher before reinstalling the stove. He did this on his own accord- I was all ready to clean them myself and could not figure out how they got so clean overnight, until he told me. I was so happily surprised and touched at this gesture. We also kept our Bosch dishwasher (against Walter's advice) and Eric worked and worked to get it reinstalled and working again, and I thought for sure we would be replacing that dishwasher within the year, but we have not ever had one problem with the dishwasher. It still works perfectly. When our refrigerator was delivered in 5 feet of snow (in the middle of the street), and the delivery guy tried to tell me the refrigerator wouldn't fit into the kitchen and I insisted that it would because we picked the refrigerator precisely because it would fit, I made him wait while I called Eric, and while the delivery guy was telling me that my contractor wasn't going to answer the phone, Eric DID answer the phone and calmed me down and told me to just accept the fridge and keep it in the living room and we would work it out. And he was right, we did work it out and the refrigerator did fit in the end. The final product turned out great and we could not be happier. All our friends are super impressed at how great it turned out and much bigger the kitchen looks, and the breakfast bar has been a life changing addition to the kitchen. We asked Walter to help us remodel our main bathroom, and that project is ongoing now. I will write a separate review for that project...but so far so good. It is almost done.

Working with Masonworks has been a roller coaster. They are very, very good at the masonry aspect,…read morebut we had a negative experience with everything outside of the excellent stone walls and patio they built for us. They have built beautiful flat stone walls for us in our front and back yards. We were very impressed with them after the first job they did for us in our front yard a few years ago, so we did not even look at other companies when we wanted to spruce up our backyard this year. The garden walls they built in the backyard were once again beautiful. However, as a gardener, I was disappointed and frustrated by the following things: - Our contract included 50/50 loam compost for the new garden beds. During the job, we caught them filling the beds with the grass they had pulled up from our old lawn and asked them to stop doing that. - When I went to start planting, I found that the garden beds had only a layer of new soil but that my shovel quickly hit a lot of big rocks and uncovered old soil, debris, and trash. - They completely trampled and destroyed my established perennial garden, which was located in a garden bed above where the new beds were built. They also broke several pavers in a little garden path I had and removed them without replacing them. - They recommended microclover for my lawn and seeded it for us as part of the contract, but it grew in quite spotty despite us maintaining it properly with daily waterings. I contacted them about the first issue and their initial response was to tell me that the stones I was finding were part of the wall construction - this was not the case. They had someone come out to take a look and concluded that the soil did need to be replaced, which they finally did. It is much better now, though I still have found some large stones in it. However, in the process of solving that issue, they caused the second one - many of the perennials that my mother and I had worked to plant over the past four years were totally destroyed. They offered me a credit to compensate for the loss, or the option to have them reinstall new flowers, but by that point I just didn't want them near my garden anymore so accepted the credit. I didn't bother contacting them about the spotty lawn - I threw down some grass seeds yesterday to try and fill in the gaps. While I appreciated that they did eventually take steps to resolve the issues, I found it quite frustrating to have to keep reaching out just to get them to do what they really should have done in the first place. They never did a final walkthrough as I've seen other contractors do. No apology for destroying my garden. They have a Benjamin Franklin quote, "The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten" - I definitely felt some of that bitterness throughout this process. My conclusion is that they are really excellent masons but do not understand or respect gardens. If you hire them, be prepared to have to deal with that.
