Once we got the quote, which was more reasonable than other contractors, it was very quick for his team to get going. It was within 5 days that they scheduled a time, and then completed the works within 3 days. They found further rot in the wood of the frame so while we were stuck in somewhat of a tough place since they already removed the chimney, we had no choice but to fix it, but I felt James gave us a fair price and didn't abuse the situation. I would highly recommend them and would use them in the future if I have any additional works needed.

I am so grateful to have found James and Keystone.

James assured me that no job is too small, he was always available, he provided a written quotation and a ten year guarantee. His colleagues completed the work early, on the brink of bad weather, repointing the interior walls of our fieldstone basement, which had been shedding mortar and paint for more than five years. It looks great, and I am delighted. C Page, Waltham

I hired Sean Douglas (aka Michael) of Corleone Concrete and Masonry for a new foundation, footings,…read morewaterproofing, and a concrete staircase (quoted at $55k; $18k deposit). He convinced me the work would be by code and that all permits would be pulled by him, including structural, plumbing, and demolition permits. In reality, no permits were obtained by Sean. He started demolition without a permit. Work was minimal and inconsistent, with questionable structural adds. The crew was unreliable--late, few on site, and sometimes unproductive. Sean doesn't own the equipment expected for this job. You would think someone who specializes in concrete would have the tools to break up concrete but not Sean. Site safety was a concern (no portable toilet; a worker was observed smoking marijuana on site on 12/13/25; odd behavior from Sean). I paid $18k by check, which was cashed at a pawn/check-cashing location, not deposited to a business account. After termination, there were safety and security issues (a break-in to remove tools on 12/14/25 at 10pm; debris and a trailer abandoned on my property; unauthorized access through a window on 12/19/25). Police were notified. Sean has blocked me and offered various unfulfilled excuses about refunds via his colleague which is a lawyer. I was fooled because of this connection but dont fall for his lies. He has failed to provide an invoice, failed to provide any refund, and disappeared after being fired. Bottom line: significant deposit lost ($18k), no permits, poor workmanship, safety concerns, and poor communication. He shared a photo of my check image with a stranger, which is highly inappropriate and raises additional security concerns. DO NOT HIRE. Please question the credibility of these other positive reviews, as a business with decades in operation as he will tell you typically has a longer history of feedback. I have since learned he has several small claims filed against him. Douglas Concrete on BBB is also him. I have no doubt this current company will not be his last. He has a clothing line bostonhard where he states to "represent the 1% that follow no rules that society inflicts on us." He certainly believes this. I write this review in the hopes that others do not get taken advantage of as I have. I have proof for all these statements.

They left the workspace immaculate and were highly professional throughout the day.

It's rare to find a company that combines skill, honesty, and great customer service, but Guardian truly delivers.

The roofing material they use is CertainTeed ( best product on the market). The new skylights started leaking after the first snowstorm. We needed buckets, and a plastic sled under multiple leaks in our kitchen and porch. We tried contacting them 3 times and got no response. The material and work is less than 2 years old and ALL of it needs to be replaced. Improving communication with customers would benefit everyone, especially since this happened to a senior citizen who is a veteran. This company is not part of the Better Business Bureau.

He then helped me by emailing directly with the insurance company to point out where their estimates for what it would cost to replace my roof were too low, and they eventually came up by several thousand to match his estimate. He also replaced my skylights and advised me on how to get tax credits for the new, energy efficient ones. His team was polite, worked really hard, and got it done before the cold winter weather set in, working through the weekend when it snowed during the week. They also cleaned up very well afterwards and warned me to check my driveway for nails after the dumpster was hauled away (there were over 20 that had fallen through the container so that was a key piece of advice). He and his foreman were both easy to contact by text and phone throughout the process. Overall, I am an extremely happy customer, both because I have a new roof that looks great, and also because my homeowners insurance picked up most of the cost, thanks to Shawn's willingness to wrangle with them.

Where other contractors canceled appointments, arrived late, or were just no-shows - Mikel (out of their Hudson office) arrived on time and did a thorough assessment of the roof including taking drone footage. He sat with me and walked me through the whole process clearly, explaining all my choices in materials and didn't push any product or add-on. I did receive marginally cheaper quotes, but they did not leave me feeling like my home was in good hands in the same way that Mikel did, and I felt the extra money was likely to be worth it. Once I decided to go ahead with them, again, everything was done very professionally. I was kept informed of times and everybody showed up exactly when they said they would. I made a small change to the scope of the work in replacing additional plywood sections of the roof, and these were easily accommodated on short notice. On the day of the work, the crew showed up on time and Jurgan (the site foreman) kept everything moving with minimal disruption to us. I was working from home, and my wife and kids were in and out of the house for school and errands. Despite replacing the entire roof of the main building and two additions over approximately 9 hours, there was minimal disruption to our days. The house was protected during the work, and even with snow still on the ground, their cleanup crew constantly walked the property picking up and disposing of any debris, nails, old material etc. Ultimately the roof was replaced successfully and looks good. Every step of the job was explained to me, every question answered, and every decision explained. The team was professional, punctual and courteous throughout. A couple of weeks in and we've had snow, rain and strong winds. Everything is still perfect. I can highly recommend Mikel and Jurgan from Golden Group, Hudson.
