A Medford general contractor whose crews will gut a kitchen — and also show up to shovel your driveway. During the 2026 blizzard, a customer wrote in February that Carlos and his team arrived promptly and dug them out; another reviewer that same day said Carlos got back to him immediately with pricing and a timeframe. A February 2026 Angi reviewer whose rear door and frame were ripped off the house by a refrigerator delivery crew got an estimate $200 under the other bids, and wrote that the door and frame were fixed in a few hours and that no bill ever came. The company says it has worked across Greater Boston since 2001 — 25 years, by its own count — out of Medford, on kitchen and bathroom remodeling, gut renovations, carpentry, ADU construction and exterior work. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, #165490, is active, and its Better Business Bureau page is an accredited A+. The bigger projects are where the detail sits. A May 2024 customer described a kitchen gutted, a wall taken down and a structural support beam installed, with both bathrooms rebuilt and one and a half baths turned into two. In November 2024 a North Andover homeowner had a spare living room converted into a bedroom, bathroom and office with laundry over three months. A February 2025 review describes a first-floor apartment in a two-family gutted and rebuilt after a fire, with Carlos handling the private adjuster along the way. An April 2026 customer got a detailed scope of work with a quote, work starting within days of approval and daily progress updates, and a May 2026 customer's basement, unfinished for years, is now a room they use. Two accounts run the other way. An August 2025 reviewer wrote that the company did not show up on time and sometimes not at all, and that calls to the office ended with a promised call back that never came. A customer whose dormer was built the length of the second floor wrote in February 2026 that the work took about six months and ran longer than they had hoped against the three to six months they were told, while still calling Carlos and Odair good to work with. For a whole-room or whole-floor renovation — the kind with a beam, a permit and a hundred decisions — customers describe estimates they found honest and a site kept clean. For a small emergency, this crew turns up for that too. Get the scope of work in writing with a date range you can hold them to, and agree at the start how often you will hear from them while the job runs.
We had an extremely positive experience with Alcantara Contractors. A large part of our basement had remained unfinished for years, and now it is completely transformed into a beautiful and usable space that we are very happy with. The team was professional and polite, stuck to the budget, and didn’t pressure us to add things at a higher cost. They paid great attention to detail, and took care of things that I didn’t even notice. They finished the work earlier than I expected, and cleaned up after themselves perfectly. Highly recommended!

Carlos and his team promptly delivered a detailed scope of work with a reasonable quote. Within days of approval, work began and was completed in just a couple of days. The workmanship was outstanding, the job site was kept clean, and Carlos provided daily progress updates. When the garage doors needed a post-completion adjustment, I notified Carlos and he came out quickly to resolve the issue. What sets Carlos's team apart: 1. Fast response — he returns calls quickly 2. Quick, fair quotes — reasonably priced every time 3. Rapid start — work begins within a day or two of the go-ahead 4. Excellent execution — completed quickly with top-quality workmanship I'll definitely be calling Carlos and his crew for future projects.
During our recent blizzard it became clear to me that my wife and I had hours of back breaking work ahead to dig us out! We were not looking forward to it! Then I contacted alcantara for assistance. Carlos immediately got back to me with pricing and timeframe of when his team could be there. They were awesome to deal with! Dug as out, cleared off our cars, porches, driveway and steps. We didn’t have to do a thing! Remember to contact Alcantara for any needs you may have renovations, construction, snow removal, etc. Alcantara is the best!!
Carlos and his team came to help shovel us out of 2026 blizzard/snowstorm. They were an Incredible team that arrived promptly and got the job done better than we ever could. Thank you !
