Anyone renovate lately? Need GC reccomendation
Hi ladies! I live in Brookline and we bought our first home a few years ago- we're looking to renovate our bathroom this summer now that we've finally saved up enough money, and while I would have loved to go the partially DIY route (oversee the project ourselves, do what we can, and bring in professionals- plumbler, eletcrician, etc.- as needed) but since we're a condo, we need a permit from the town, and that requires a licensed contractor to oversee everything.
I have no idea where to start. Obviously I can google someone, but I'd prefer a recommendation. We're the first of our friends to buy, I polled some neighbors, and I'm coming up empty (although I do have a growing list of GCs to avoid, which is disheartening). So even though I don't post a lot here I thought I'd try you ladies. Anyone renovate lately? Preferably in the Boston/metro west area? Would love any and all leads!
Re: Anyone renovate lately? Need GC reccomendation
We used Eddie Pendleton for our kitchen remodel and he was GREAT. I honestly can't say enough good things about him. Our bathroom remodel with a different GC was a NIGHTMARE. I was SO happy we had Eddie do our kitchen. He showed up on time, kept us informed every step of the way and his finish work was nothing less than perfect. He was a bit more expensive than other quotes we received but it was totally worth it to have a competent, professional person do the work. His subcontractors were also great. His info from Angie's list...I should really write a review for him.
