About Watertown
Known as one of the best places to live in the Boston area, Watertown resides in Middlesex County. One of the original Massachusetts Bay Colonies settled by English Puritans in 1630, Watertown has a true old New England feel. The town is known for drawing commuters who work in Boston given its bustling suburban/urban feel and lively restaurant and bar scene.
At Bay State Refinishing & Remodeling, we love working with Watertown homeowners and their always interesting and often historic homes.
Watertown-area Home Remodeling Project
This Watertown-area client wanted a fresh, modern bathroom. In addition to an upgraded aesthetic, they wanted a more functional bathroom for their morning and evening routines. To accomplish this, they wanted a new walk-in closet as well as a connecting pathway between the bathroom, walk-in closet, and adjacent room.
Bay State Refinishing & Remodeling jumped in to help. First, our design team worked with the client to develop a modern design. Our team then helped select the perfect finishing touches for countertops, cabinets, and more to meet the client’s style and taste.
Once the planning was finalized, the crew at Bay State Refinishing & Remodeling got to work. In only 9 weeks, our team created a beautiful bathroom the client loves.

What Our Clients Say
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!”
