Get matched with top architects in Newton Upper Falls, MA

"Alan Taylor is a horrible professional to work with. We hired him as an architect for our project and regretted it bitterly. Alan caused numerous delays, exploiting the fact that we simply were dependent on him once the design was approved by Boston building department. Each interraction with Alan took forever and his endless requests to get directly in touch with various committees, professionals working on the project, were absolutely not necessary, exclusively justifying Alan's overbilling. I will give 2 examples: my son was scammed out of $11k when he maid a payment to Alan, who then insisted that it was not him giving the bank info for money transfer, but hackers of his email. It took my son 4 months to get the money back, thanks to his bank, with Alan demanding a full payment over and over again, which resulted in almost 6 months delay. At the final stage of the project,while preparation of the condo association documents, Alan had to prepare as is building plan. One does not need to be an architect to realize that 1 site visit for measurements and max a couple of hours to review the engineering plans and add 8 annotations should not take 2.5 months and be billed $3680. I would strongly encourage everyone to stay away from this person."

"Working with John and his team was an absolute pleasure. I truly can't speak highly enough of their professionalism and dedication. Kim’s communication about John and the rest of the team was also outstanding—clear, timely, and helpful throughout. John stood out for his flexibility and responsiveness, always ready to answer questions or consider suggestions. Fortunately, our project only encountered a few minor curveballs, all of which were handled smoothly and confidently. What impressed me most was John’s pride in his work. One day, he noticed a small detail that most wouldn’t have caught—but it bothered him enough to rebuild it until it was perfect. That kind of care and commitment is exactly what you want in someone working on your home."

"I highly recommend Sanfer Rocha and D.S. Partners Construction for a bathroom remodel. Sanfer was professional, transparent with costs, and responsive to questions during the whole renovation process. His workers were skilled, prompt, and friendly. Sanfer also suggested vendors and provided helpful tips. I am very happy with our beautiful bathroom and would hire him again for another renovation."

"We had a terrific experience. John was very helpful and responsive and we highly recommend using them."

"Went very well. On time, very professional. Very clean, finished the job on time and surprisingly under original budget."

"Great, Dave stayed within our budget and our addition looks like it was part of a whole new home construction. We were really impressed with Dave Kinsella's design concepts and the workmanship was high quality even though we were on a tight budget. Dave comes from a big family so he understands money and time constraints plus he wants his projects to look as aesthetically pleasing to his clients as possible. We would definitely hire Dave again."

"Hossein Vahedi of CLASSICAL HOMES LLC designed our house and supervised the construction process. He was friendly and easy to work with, had many creative ideas, and really tried to understand our needs. He worked well with our general contractor. His price is very reasonable. I highly recommend him to people who want to create their own dream house, but need professional help to translate their ideas to doable project."

"Joe and his team did an incredible job, the work was excellent and I appreciated the workmanship and the creative trouble-shooting (it's an old house!) to get excellent results. Everyone on his team was great: skilled, hard-working, friendly, and kind/respectful. Pricing was very reasonable and allowed me to upgrade items like appliances without sacrificing the scope of the remodel, quality, or workmanship. My house is transformed and I could not be happier with the results."

"I wanted a shower expanded. George Mavridis's estimate was very competitive but I hired him because I knew he was honest, quality focused and an open communicator. He has a small crew and excellent subs so he's not super fast. But Mavridis is excellent. One example: The shower needed a new fan, vented through the attic roof. The attic boards were all cut (before my time) in half when insulation was installed. The attic floor was unstable and unsafe. George was very busy but he had his team replace the boards with plywood panels...for 20% less than I expected. Why? Because he wanted to make sure I would be happy when the job was done. I could give 4-5 other examples but you get the point. If you hire George, you'll be pleased."

"Fearghal Kenny turned our 130-year-old Victorian attic into a beautiful living space with modern aesthetics and time-period sensibilities. He is a highly skilled craftsman with years of experience and a fantastic eye for detail. He managed his team of quality subcontractors beautifully. He was flexible, responded immediately to inquiries, and was respectful of requests. Our new living space, which includes a bathroom, is absolutely beautiful! We highly recommend Kenny Builders and plan to hire him for our next project."
