ABALIA Construction is a design-build general contractor run personally by its owner, Khaled (spelled Khalid in some reviews), who takes on the kind of project that involves permits, subcontractors and a town building department — two-car and two-story garage additions, a custom three-season sunroom with a sunken hot tub, and whole-house renovations touching the kitchen, bathrooms, basement, heating, electrical and plumbing all at once. Its written record runs from 2021 to 2024, with nothing more recent on file. Across most of that record, the same things come up: Khaled personally walking customers through design decisions, staying responsive during the build, and flagging any cost overage before it happens rather than after. One customer's two-story garage build ran longer than planned while Khaled coordinated multiple subcontractors and the town's building department, but the result came out as wanted. Another, replacing deck railings, had the crew finish in two days. A 2021 customer who wasn't happy with part of the outcome said Khaled had it redone to their satisfaction. One project stands apart from the rest. In a 2021 review, a customer describes a $25,000 half-bathroom build with communication they called absent or dishonest, poor time management, and finished quality below what they expected, saying they needed to hire someone else to fix it. That's the one clearly negative account on file, against a much longer run of five-star jobs on additions, basements, decks and full-house renovations. For a Massachusetts homeowner planning a larger custom project — an addition, a garage, a full renovation — ABALIA is worth a call given how consistently Khaled's design input and communication are praised; it's fair to ask for recent references given how long it's been since the last review on file, and to get a firm timeline in writing for anything involving permits or multiple subcontractors.

Khalid and his team were great to work with throughout a challenging project in an older home. He was responsive and provided many different cost effective ideas & recommendations. I would recommend their services + be happy to provide a reference as needed! ($12,000)
Khaled's team was a pleasure to work with. They kept us looped in at every stage of the project, they were incredibly organized, and really made it a point to minimize any impact to us. We are very happy with the project and would highly recommend Abalia. (Foundation, Basement or Crawlspace - Waterproofing / Encapsulation, $45,000)
Huge thank you to Abalia Construction! Khaled, the general contractor/owner made our home renovation dreams come true! Seriously, this guy went above and beyond. We had this huge house project on our hands and a short timeline to get everything done. But Khaled? He's like a magician. Somehow, he managed to keep us on track, while also balancing our vision and our budget! I'm talking about creative solutions that we never would've thought of ourselves. And the best part? He made it all happen without sacrificing quality. Our home looks absolutely stunning now, thanks to Abalia Construction. Highly recommend!
I recently contracted with Abalia Construction to finish my basement, and overall, my experience was great! Things that stand out for working with Khaled are his communication style, his ownership/creativity to meet the design in delivering the end-product and his efforts to keep our project timeline and budget. He provided a realistic cost estimate from the beginning which they stuck to. There were still some unforeseen delays to the project due to either material back-order or unavailability of workers, but still Khaled worked personally to keep the project on task. While the basement looks great quality there were still instances where attention to detail seemed lacking. The subcontractors and workers employed were also skilled professionals however their attention to details could have been better. Moreover, communication with workers/sub-contractors was little challenging due to fact them not speaking English. However, Khaled overcame these challenges by taking an active role in addressing any issues even when it meant that he had to re-do some of the activities again. Without any doubt, they will be the first I reach out to for my next project. (Basement - Remodel)
Thank you Khaled for everything, you and your workers were nothing but professional. Clear, concise, very neat and eager to please. I highly recommend Abalia construction for any project.
