A small aging front porch turned into a larger covered porch: that is the job a 2025 customer described after hiring Matt of Begin Subcontracting. That 2025 customer said Matt was detailed in his updates, and wrote that they hired him again a few months later to finish and stain the porch and add lattice ceiling detail. On its BBB page, the company describes itself as a renovation company whose residential work runs from painting and power washing to flooring replacement, finish carpentry and handyman jobs. Its BBB grade is A+. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, number 184381, is active on the state registry, held in the name of Matthew Begin.
Matt with Begin Subcontracting is friendly, personable, thorough, timely, and very skilled. Early this year we had our small aging front porch rebuilt to a beautiful covered larger porch. We’ve enjoyed it so much for sitting, and a wonderful buffer into the home. Matt was detailed in his updates, and a lovely contractor to work with. We hired him again to finish, stain, and add lattice ceiling detail, a few months later. And we will certainly hire again for any future needs!
