# Akor Homes **Trade:** General Contractor / Remodeling · **Phone:** (978) 763-0516 · **Website:** http://www.akorhomes.com/ · **Languages:** English **Rating: 4.5/5** (medium confidence) — from 14 reviews across 4 sources. 100% of sentiment-scored reviews read net-positive. Last 6 months: 0 reviews, 0 negative. ## The honest read Akor Homes is a Massachusetts carpentry and remodeling business run by Gabriel Brito, verified active for its home improvement contractor registration with the state. Most of its written reviews were left under the business's former name, GM Home Construction — the same owner and crew, just a different name today. Fourteen Google reviews from 2021 through this year are five stars without exception, and the range of work is wide: full bathroom remodels, deck rebuilds, built-in cabinetry, mudroom and pantry conversions, and finish carpentry that shows up in nearly every account. A 2021 review described rebuilding a second-story deck with arched columns, an oversized staircase and a half-circle design, calling it amazing work kept on budget. Another 2021 review described converting part of a house into a mudroom and walk-in pantry, praising the carpentry as fantastic. A 2023 review described transforming an outdated bathroom into a stunning, functional space with strong communication throughout, and a separate 2023 review described custom built-in bookshelves, window seats, and a new window and door added to a full room renovation. One 2023 review described the crew stepping in quickly, starting within a week, after a previous contractor had bailed on a hardscaping project at the last minute. The picture is less perfectly clean elsewhere: Angi and HomeAdvisor both show a 4.0 rating built from just four reviews, one of them one star, though no text is available to explain what happened there. Against fourteen detailed, glowing Google reviews, it's worth knowing about even without more detail to go on. For bathroom remodels, decks, built-ins or finish carpentry in Massachusetts, the Google reviews here are deep and consistently strong, and the state registration checks out — just note the business went by GM Home Construction until recently if searching for it elsewhere. **Strengths:** - Deep, consistent record — 14 Google reviews from 2021 to 2026 are all five stars - Skilled finish carpentry — decks, built-ins and stairs praised repeatedly - Full bathroom remodels — reviewers describe stunning, functional transformations - Steps in fast — a 2023 review described starting within a week after another contractor bailed **Concerns:** - One low rating elsewhere — Angi and HomeAdvisor show a 1-star among four reviews, no detail available **Where sources disagree:** - Google shows a perfect 5.0 across 14 detailed reviews while Angi and HomeAdvisor show a lower 4.0 with an undocumented 1-star among just four reviews — a real gap between platforms ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - MA registry verifies the company's home improvement contractor registration (HIC 219315) as active _(confidence: high)_ - [State License Registry](https://contractorhub.mass.gov/s/hic-contractor-search) — “MA hic license 219315 registry-verified active — registry holder of record: Akor Homes LLC” - Most Google reviews refer to the business by its former name, GM Home Construction, and its owner Gabriel Brito; Angi and HomeAdvisor list the same company as Akor Homes _(confidence: medium)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sChZDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUNYdFBuQ1RnEAE!2m1!1s0x0:0xf875a620a13c4cbb!3m1!1s2@1:CIHM0ogKEICAgICXtPnCTg%7C%7C?hl=en) — “5★ GM home construction is a solution driven, detail oriented, beauty creating firm.
