Ben Brown of Bostonian Renovations with homeowners Phillip MaCarthur and Amy Meltzer	"Bostonian Renovations was great to work with. Ben Brown and his crew are a talented and interesting bunch of guys with excellent skills, and their sub-contractors all did high quality work as well. They renovated two bathrooms, created new closets and shelving, built a new back porch with a second floor balcony, installed skylights, hardwood floors, and re-sided the house. Ben was calm, thoughtful and reliable, and was committed to making sure they were creating what we wanted. He talked everything over with us, clearly laying out design options, taking into account cost, time, practicality and esthetics. We are very happy we hired Bostonian Renovations. Our house is more beautiful, comfortable and functional because of their work." -Amy Meltzer and Phillip MaCarthur, Cambridge, Ma.	"We have worked with many different contractors over the years in two different homes and Bostonian Renovations is by far the best. First and foremost is the GREAT crew led by Ben Brown. Not only are they honest, hard-working and talented, but they are wonderful to have around. This makes the inherant upheaval of renovation/construction a pleasure to come home to. Ben was available in every way for conversations and concerns and was always up front about job duration and budget issues. The workmanship and attention to detail was outstanding, and the follow-up, over three years later, is extremely rare in the construction business. We actually missed them when our job was finished. In fact, we are planning to hire them again to build an addition and remodel our kitchen in the next year." -Abby and Guy Rordorf, Newton, Ma.
"We were looking for someone who would partner with us as we went about our remodeling projects, and we found that in Bostonian Renovations. They listen well, translate and incorporate ideas and then execute the work with attention to detail. Ben Brown and his superb crew are true crafts-people who know what they are doing and delivered what was promised, on time and at fair prices. We are thrilled with the extensive work they did and look forward to having them back." -Gil Williams and Susanne Rheault, Lincoln, Ma. "My wife and I had to completely remodel the main living space, kitchen and bath of a beautiful 2-family in Brookline on a tight time-frame. Bostonian Renovations responded quickly with an intellegent and thorough assesment of the project, followed up with a realistic, competitive estimate. We felt very good about hiring them, and that feeling turned out to be well-founded. Ben and his team did first-rate work, keeping right on schedule, helping us through numerous challenges, and they were always respectful of the home and family members. The results were outstanding. We would hire them again in a flash, and would recommend them unhesitatingly for any building project." -Tom Marton, Brookline, Ma.	"We're currently in mid-project with Bostonian Renovations, and working with these guys has been a dream. They are exceptionally skilled, not just as craftsmen, but in they way they deal with us as customers. They understand that renovations can be very disruptive and go out of their way to make the process more comfortable. This shows up with how careful they are with our house and belongings, how well they clean up at the end of the day, and even how they interact with curious toddlers. In short, they not only do great work but are also a genuine pleasure to have around the house." -Chris Gardner, Natick, Ma.	"Our architect recommended Bostonian Renovations and we hired them to build our split-level addition connecting the main house to our garage. We could not have been happier with their work. We found Ben to be honest and professional and his team a pleasure to work with. We were especially grateful for the extra effort they took to keep our house sealed from the construction. It made living through the project so much easier. We subsequently hired them to do additional work, renovating a second floor bathroom and bedroom." -Ann Levin, Newton, Ma. "Bostonian Renovations delivered as promised with the quality of a prestige contractor at reasonable rates and customer care that was second to none. The owner, Ben Brown provided us with an estimate of project cost and completion that was easy to understand. It was a positive, pleasant and totally satisfying experience from start to finish." -Kevin B. McKelvey, Selectman- Burlington, Ma. "Over the past 20 years I've owned three homes and completed many renovations, large and small, working with various contractors on each project. Ben Brown and his colleagues are one of the few companies I would gladly work with again. Their work was exemplary, and Ben called each day with a progress update and consulted with me whenever suprises came up as is always the case on any home renovation. I particularly liked the custom vanity that is more a work of art than a bathroom cabinet!" Audrey Haas- Newton, Ma.

"Not only was our large addition finished on time and on budget, it was filled with all sorts of crafty details we wouldn't have expected. Ben and the great guys from Bostonian Renovations were fantastic to work with from the beginning of the project straight through to it's completion. Our project was a sizable one and fairly daunting at the onset, but they helped us manage the details and costs, and any issues that arose during construction were resolved quickly and professionally. We decided to live in the house through the renovation which could have been difficult for our family and pets, but the guys were very mindful of our needs and kept the job site very clean which was a huge relief. The collective imput from Bostonian Renovations combined with our vision helped us transform a small and tired farm-house into a lovely 3000 sqft home that reflects who we are and how we like to live. We look forward to having Ben, Bruce, Johnathan and Jack back to work on future projects." -Randall and Amanda Elkin, Natick, Ma.	We rely on Bostonian Renovations for all of our important construction projects. With all of the potential stresses of home improvement, it is an enormous relief not to have to worry about contractor problems. Their workmanship is first rate and they are dependable, trustworthy, helpful and friendly. Ben makes us feel that the results of the projects are as important to him as they are to us. In the course of each project he has made suggestions, both structural and aesthetic, that have improved the end results. We have recommended Bostonian Renovations to friends, family and acquaintances many times and will continue to do so. -Larry Litwak and Debby Faber- Newton ,Ma.
"We hired Ben and Bostonian Renovations to remodel our kitchen and bathroom, re-plaster the ceilings and refinish all of the hardwood floors in the house. We had them do the improvements because we know that they do it right. Ben and his crew are so honest and hard-working. We had no problem leaving for the day and having them work in the house. They are neat and always cleaned up perfectly after each workday was done. Ben's suggestions for our kitchen were what made it come out more beautiful than we expected. I would recommend Bostonian Renovations to anyone, and we did recommend him to our neighbors, who hired them to remodel their bathroom. We are so happy with all of the improvements in our home and if we do anything else in the house, we will always get Ben and his company to do the job. Laura Burian- Waltham, Ma.
