“After owning my condo on Beacon Hill for 20 years, I decided to do a complete down to the studs renovation. MARS was recommended to me by a friend/neighbor who said they had a great experience with Sal and Edgar and their crew. I’ve recommended them to 8 people in my building.MARS is very professional, responsive and polite. I’d never done a renovation before and they educated me on the process as we worked together to make it all come together. They were patient with me when I had questions or wanted something changed and there was no mansplaining.Go into the experience knowing it’s a team effort and you have to be available to answer questions, make decisions. It’s how you’ll be happiest with the end result.My project was finished on time and on budget. There were no surprises because I was always kept informed. I had to move out of my unit and rented a place for three months and MARS was aware of my timeframe and we met the deadline no problem.If you don’t use MARS for your renovation. You’re crazy. They are the best. I hated to see them go. I wanted to find another project for them. Great team. I can’t say enough about them.“

“I work in the trades and will always recommend using the crew at Village Woodworking. They never disappoint. From the design, to the building and the install I’m always left very impressed. They’re very attentive to whatever my needs are whether I need a couple doors made or have a customer looking for a top of the line kitchen.“

“I ordered a small vanity here for a powder room. We wanted something very narrow but had room width wise. I liked that we were able to customize the piece. The woman who assisted us was very friendly and helpful. The owner let us borrow the paint sample for a few hours to match paint for our trim which was appreciated. The piece took longer than we originally thought, but because of COVID, I do not blame the store. I would absolutely use them again for my next project.“

“Matt is the best communicating contractor I’ve met so far. This is one of the best parts of this kitchen remodel project. I’ve contacted at least 7 or 8 contractors before finding Kitchen Tune Up with Matt. Previously I could hardly even get a ballpark quote, never mind a detailed quote according to the scope of work. Matt was able to get that to me in a week that included everything we talked about. Another convenience is that its price includes cabinets. Almost all the previous contractors said they only quote me the job but I have to go find and buy my own cabinets. There could be more options if you go to a cabinet dealer, but I was able to find the cabinets that I’m happy with from the Kitchen Tune Up selection. The quote and final price was all very reasonable.Matt and his team are very courteous, professional, and effective. The team has a great chemistry, which is always important for getting a project done well. They set up dividers and floor covering to keep everything as clean as possible, and also clean up after every workday; and they are not noisy since my husband and I work from home. They are very helpful to answer questions, and flexible to work around issues and requests. Schedule wise it was very efficient. Groups of workers showed up and finished on all the dates previously scheduled, no endless delays. Matt subcontracted the floor repair for me, which is included in the quote. It was a bit tricky to work on my tiles but in the end the tile floor came out nicely. Matt also contracted electricians (Wetmore Electric, separate review on them), which is quoted and paid separately. But two teams worked well together. I did find my own guy to come in during an in-between week to do a separate wall/ceiling repair and painting job (Atmosphere Painting and Plastering, separate review on them). Matt as able to schedule his team around my schedule, too, which I really appreciate.The final piece was I had a matching countertop that is to be moved and cut and reinstalled on a new base cabinet. This piece took a long time. Because the job was small, the countertop company didn’t want to spend the time to come to pick up the granite. So Matt’s team did the extra work to bring the countertop to them, have it cut, then bring it back to install it themselves. Even though this is not their usual job, the work came out beautifully, including covering a weird corner that has a funky whole.Again, Matt’s team is amazing, I would recommend them to anyone who wants to do a kitchen job of any size.“
