# Altair Construction

**Trade:** General Contractor / Remodeling · **Address:** 130 Rumford Ave #116, Auburndale, MA 02466, USA · **Phone:** (617) 614-0595 · **Website:** http://www.altair-construction.com/ · **Languages:** English

**Rating: 3.2/5** (low confidence) — from 1 reviews across 5 sources. A 0–5 star rating built from what customers and the public say (every review and mention weighted by where it was posted, how old, how detailed and how credible it is, shrunk toward a 3.5★ baseline when evidence is thin) plus what the record shows (Reddit recommendations or warnings, a registry-verified licence, how recently they were reviewed, customer work photos, BBB grade, negative news, a revoked licence). Positive record counts only as far as the reviews have earned it; penalties count in full. Confidence describes how much weighted evidence stands behind the number, never the number itself: low when fewer than about five normal reviews' worth of weight (or mentions only) support it, medium up to about twenty, high beyond that across at least two sources. An operator flag for a suspicious review pattern caps a rating at 3.5★ and marks it low.

## The honest read

Altair Construction is an Auburndale, MA general contracting and remodeling company with an extensive Houzz-listed service area across Newton and Greater Boston. The Better Business Bureau gives it an A+ grade and lists nine years in business, though the company isn't BBB accredited.

The one detailed review on file, from 2025, describes a home repair completed by three workers who were "pleasant, friendly, and helpful" and left the homeowner "thoroughly impressed" with detail-oriented, considerate work.

Worth knowing before calling: the company's Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration is currently expired according to the state registry, so it's worth asking about its current licensing status directly.

**Strengths:**
- Detail-oriented crew — a 2025 repair called considerate and well-done
- A+ BBB grade — nine years in business per BBB

**Concerns:**
- Expired HIC license — Massachusetts registration lapsed
