I live in a two bedroom apartment in downtown Boston that is approximately 1,000 square feet. The apartment has always had shared laundry service on the first floor but I was determined to get a washer and dryer installed in the apartment somehow. The best place to put things was in a closet that neither had any existing plumbing nor was near any other plumbing. Putting it anywhere else would have required knocking down some walls and would have been much less convenient. The two ways to get plumbing into this closet were to go through the floor or the ceiling. Going through the floor would have been a huge project because the hardwood would have needed to be pulled up and there was no guarantee that we would have gotten the pitch we needed for the drainage. The ceiling was difficult because the drainage would also have to go through the ceiling, meaning we needed some sort of pump to get the drainage water pushed up 10 feet in the air to meet up with the existing drain pipes. I had two contractors look at this job prior to reaching out to Rob. One told me it would cost $6,000 and the other said it was too complicated and they didn't want to touch it. Rob came in, told me that it was complicated but also outlined what could go wrong and how we would address it f it did. He spent about a week crawling around in a drop ceiling, tapping into existing pipes and getting everything set up exactly right. I think what I really appreciated was the calm handling of everything and the open and honest communication. He got everything done correctly and charged less than I had been quoted previously but the real charm was the methodical approach to everything. Really, I can't say enough good things about him and plan to use him for all of my future plumbing. 5 stars across the board.

The stairway project had wide stripes that were done by hand and came out perfectly, despite being a challenging layout with angles, curves and different ceiling heights. John is very thorough in his initial consultation, and will help you select a paint if that is needed. When we moved into a new condo, we hired them to initially repaint just one floor, but eventually brought them back several times to continue throughout the whole condo. They are also very good about returning later on to touch up any nicks or dings (after we moved furniture in we had some)."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/ma/wellesley/lewis-f-perry-and-sons-painting-reviews-407933.htm"},"position":10}]}
Popcorn Ceiling Service reviews from real Angi homeowners in Charlestown, MA
These guys were responsive, fast, and clean. They were in and out within an hour or so, and they installed everything perfectly, moved our smoke detector, and even patched the ceiling hole from the old light fixture by reusing bits of drywall from their installation. They were perfect.

"Pedro and his team were excellent. They were professional and timely, hard-working and meticulous, and trustworthy. Best of all (at least for me), is that Pedro is VERY responsive and his team is assigned to get your job done and done correctly. They show up on time every day, and were willing to work late into the evening to hit the project milestones. Pedro was 100% clear about the costs, and he made sure I fully understood the areas where the costs were not known or where the costs could possibly change. For example, he said, "If you open up this wall, I'm not sure what we are going to find." I told him to proceed and his team opened up that wall and found that the previous contractor had installed literally zero insulation. Pedro met with me, reviewed what his team had found, went over all of our options, gave me his recommendation, and only proceeded when I completely approved the additional work that would be done and the additional cost entailed. Pedro is a true partner and his team does great work. I cannot recommend them enough. My wife and I have already booked them for another job renovating a first floor porch and creating a roof over the open-air second floor porch."

"Veglia Remodeling was wonderful to work with. Jeff gave me an estimate for the labor/work on my bathroom remodel. He also suggested vendors to work with and suggested meeting them to choose materials (which was the other cost of course). That was very helpful. Jeff was always available via text or phone. Mostly text. He was the point person if I had concerns. Always gracious. Happy to weigh in if I wasn't sure about something. He has a number of people who he works with and they were all very professional and everyone always cleaned up when they left for the day. I felt very fortunate to have Jeff commit to my project since my bathroom is extremely small (two people standing in it is a crowd) and it can be tough to find someone who will work on a small project."
