Constraction reviews in Reading, Massachusetts

Bancroft did a complete gut of our first floor powder room, replaced ceiling in our living room and also completed a replacement of all first floor door and window trim with a farmhouse style. The work was done professionally and done with good detail. the end product was exactly what we had envisioned for the look and feel of the spaces renovated. we were very happy with Bancroft's team that did the work and finishing up on the timeline we needed. we will be scheduling our master bathroom renvo with them as well.

Bancroft construction came to our home to fix a problematic toilet in our bathroom that was causing floor damage that could ultimately result in mold and a large Reno project. With the help of Paul and his staff he was able to fix the problem effectively and in a very timely manner. He was professional and reliable and saved us a lot of money if we had not fixed this issue when he found it! We are thankful for his work and will have him back for more household projects and renovations!

My Fiancé and I are so grateful to Paul and the team at Bancroft construction for helping us with our bathroom remodel project! Our previous bathroom had a leak that spread into other parts of the home. Paul was able to repair the damage and give us the master bathroom of our dreams. He and his staff were always prompt , available to answer questions, and polite. His tile work was masterful along with installation of a large glass shower door and fixtures. Paul and his team left such a great impression we decided to re-hire Bancroft Construction for a kitchen remodel to start 2021 which we are excited for the work to begin !!

As the owner of an interior design studio; Amy Lynn Interiors, we always enjoy the partnership with the team at Bancroft. Their exemplary communication skills, professionalism, and client-centric approach have made each project a seamless and enjoyable experience. We appreciate the proactive updates on site progress, keeping us well-informed and allowing for effective planning. Their commitment to transparency, education on project decisions, and overall excellence makes them our preferred builder. Looking forward to continued success together!!!

Simply put, Paul and his team at Bancroft are the BEST. They provide exceptional service, creative building ideas, high quality craftsmanship, and a range of options for renovations and new construction projects. I have been a real estate professional for over a decide and never met a more helpful, dedicated team. Paul is my first call for ALL client construction needs.

The BEST company we have ever worked with. They did a complete renovation of a condo and the craftsmanship and attention to detail is unlike any other company. We will definitely be hiring them again!

We have had a relationship with Kimball Kitchens for over 25 years. We have only the highest praise for them. Bruce and his team guided us through our remodeling project patiently, always listening to our concerns no matter how trivial they were.
After 25 years, we needed some slight updates and they came back to help us with the same patience and expertise they had 25 years ago.
This is a business who cares for its clients as tho we were part of their extended family.

If there were more stars to award, I would give infinity! Where to begin to talk about Gregg and Bruce Johnson, brothers and owners of this company. We began our conversations with not a very clear picture of what we wanted, but because Gregg and Bruce listened, got to know our needs for the present and future use of our house, they were able to visualize the home of our dreams that would be with our family for what we hope is generations to come. They were sensitive to financial boundaries, never going above the ceiling. You want to do business with the kindest and most thoughtful people, who understand how important the project is...they went above and beyond. Gregg and Bruce wanted it as much as we did and were just as excited about it coming to completion. The planning process with our fantastic architect, Nancy Twomey was nothing short of miraculous. Nancy is well versed in Town bylaws and in fact, co-authored the bylaws in our Town; when we needed to go back to the drawing board, she was nothing if not so creative and we wound up with the best plan we could have ever imagined. Nancy remained engaged throughout the project and was always available for questions and consultation. Madison Cota (now Madison Jackson) made the design process so much less overwhelming than we thought it would be. She listened, understood our tastes and was very honest when we chose something that wouldn't work with the overall design, and of course gave workable alternatives. Each appointment was focused on one thing - plumbing fixtures, light fixtures, finishes, etc.- and was enjoyable every step of the way. You hear horror stories about contractors not showing up or communicating when they say they will. This was NEVER the case at Lee Kimball. From the time ground was broken, a day didn't go by that there wasn't someone working on the project. Everything was ordered well beforehand so there were no hold-ups with scheduling. The whole experience was seamless. The people coming into my house - Kevin, Mike, Lucio, Roger, Brad (I'm sure I'm missing some and I apologize in advance!) - were all respectful and kind and truly became part of our extended family. Not one mess was left by anyone at the end of any day. The communication via the online portal for everything was so handy. There were NO change orders that came from Lee Kimball's end - there were few, but they were all generated by us because we wanted to change a few things, not for any other reason. I can never say enough about Gregg and Bruce and their whole team at Lee Kimball. We are so glad to know them and honored to call them our friends and trusted them implicitly with our project. We are so happy with the result!

We had an excellent experience with Lee Kimball. They were communicative throughout the renovation process, collaborative and receptive to feedback, and finished the project well within the projected timeframe.

We worked with the team at Lee Kimball from the initial idea stage through the design process and construction on a large renovation project. The experience and results were fantastic. Each member of the team is knowledgeable and dedicated to a positive client experience, and this extends to their selection of sub-contractors. We are glad that we chose to work with Lee Kimball and recommend them for anyone considering a home renovation.

We just celebrated 20 years with our wonderful Lee Kimball kitchen, and it’s as impressive today as when it was first designed & built. The thoughtful, well-executed design remains functional on every level, showcasing timeless attention to detail. The flawless infrastructure endures, makes swapping out appliances seamless and effortless. The mahogany cabinets are as stunning now as the day they were installed.
Every deadline was met, and the team’s professionalism made the entire process a great experience. No corners were cut. The many custom details and craftsmanship take it to the next level, and Lee Kimball's logistical expertise is second to none. It’s truly a pleasure to enjoy a kitchen that has stood the test of time. It has become a timeless, classic centerpiece of our home.

This summer I completed a small addition (mud room and walk in closet), and total external renovation of my 105 year old home (hardscape, landscape, siding, front and back entrance, and roof line). It completely changed every component of the outside of the house and both entrances and it is GORGEOUS. I have people I have never spoken to, stop me when I am walking my dog to tell me home much they love the new curb appeal of my home. I am 100% thrilled with the design, and each and every member of the Lee Kimble team approached my project with professionalism and care. Lee Kimble lines up supplies and trusted contractors so that every day of the project is used well. My project was completed on time and I am thrilled with the final result.

We hired Mike to renovate two bathrooms and couldn't be happier. We had talked to other contractors and what set Mike apart from the beginning was his knowledge, attention to detail, and that he listened to what was important to us and gave us ideas based upon what we needed.

Once the construction started, Mike was professional, communicated clearly and let us know what to expect. He thought through each decision with us and the bathrooms look and work beautifully. We've already talked to him about our next project!

Prompt and professional with a wide variety of skills allowing for multiple projects to be completed without having to look elsewhere. Extremely fair pricing as well.

Top notch construction company, Mike is the guy to call if your looking for a super dependable contractor, very professional, great to work with, they did an awesome job on our kitchen and half bath renovation, looks beautiful, my wife and I are very lucky to have worked with a honest and dependable company, would definitely use again for home improvement..

Mike recently completed a main floor bathroom remodel and replaced interior doors and windows for us. His attention to detail, checkins about important considerations throughout the process and efficiency with scheduling of subcontractors were all pluses. It was a pleasure to work with him. We plan to have hire him for additional projects and highly recommend him for your next project.

My wife and I contracted Mike to convert our home's old three-season porch into a new guest room, and to add an adjacent outdoor patio. The quality of the work was excellent; Mike is both a skilled worker and extremely knowledgeable as a general contractor. With that said, what really set Mike apart was how he communicated with us and how he managed the project.

From the first day we met him, he spoke to us as partners, not just as clients. He was friendly, transparent, and thorough in answering our questions, and proactively shared information with us as the project progressed. He was always responsive via text, and we always felt "in the loop". When a local vendor accidentally sent a bundle of lumber through our garage door, Mike held the vendor accountable and made sure that the garage door was replaced.

We'll likely be doing more work on our home in the next few years, and Mike will be the first person we call.

We were extremely happy with our kitchen renovation project by Mike at One Source. Mike was easy to work with and had great communication and responsiveness. His attention to detail and professional workmanship was very much appreciated. Multiple subs were well managed and scheduled. We would absolutely recommend One Source for any future projects!

Excellent

I am not satisfied with the installation, as there are significant issues where the carpet is crooked on all three doorways. The workers were very sloppy and did not cover the steps leading up to the bedroom. They also didn't tidy up after themselves and there was lack of communication since neither one spoke English.

The installation crew did a great job and cleaned up after the work was done. Thank you
