Customer Review
“This was just about the best contractor experience I have ever had. (And I have had many.) I found Baystate via an internet search. From the first call with Ray, I immediately felt comfortable. The first meeting confirmed these were the contractors for this job.
The work was done almost exactly according to the schedule we originally discussed, even considering a number of additions along the way. They made their jobs seem easy to me – and I know there were a number of issues to deal with in the design.
Overall, the team was AMAZING. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend them. Thank you ALL!”
