## The honest read

Boston Best Construction is a Wakefield general contractor run by Eduardo Muniz, whose name anchors a review history that runs back to 2015 — eleven years, 51 reviews, across eight different platforms. Repeat customers and industry partners are a recurring theme: a kitchen designer wrote in an early-2025 review that she'd worked with Eduardo's crew "many times over the last 15 years," and several reviewers describe hiring the company for a second or third project after an earlier one went well.

Bathroom and kitchen remodels are what the record documents most: full bathroom guts, a dormer addition paired with a bathroom renovation finished with zero change orders, a kitchen rebuilt with new cabinets, countertop, backsplash, hardwood floor and island, and — in a 2022 review — a full repair of a previous contractor's shoddy work (crooked walls, unflush baseboards, uneven doors) on a 2,500-square-foot home. Roofing, siding and window replacement, and carpentry work (built-in cabinets, staircase paneling) show up as well, alongside a couple of reviews describing HVAC and electrical-panel work bundled into larger remodels.

Two things are worth knowing before calling. First, the Massachusetts Attorney General's office has cited the company for failing to furnish accurate payroll records, misclassifying employees as independent contractors, and denying employees earned sick time — a labor-practices finding, not a complaint about workmanship. Second, the review record isn't uniformly smooth: a May 2026 review describes a project abandoned partway through, incomplete work, an upfront payment the company allegedly kept without finishing or refunding, and a threat of legal action after the customer asked for an adjustment. Two older reviews — 2021 and 2023 — describe a similar pattern on a smaller scale: attentive during the sales process, then hard to reach once a contract was signed, with one customer saying calls and texts went unanswered for weeks. These sit alongside a much larger body of specific, positive accounts spanning over a decade, including several long, detailed multi-year relationships.

The company's Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration is active, and it carries strong platform ratings — 4.8★ on Google (54 ratings), 5.0★ on Houzz (23 ratings), and 4.6★ on Thumbtack (49 ratings).

**Strengths:**
- Long track record — owner praised consistently across eleven years of projects
- MA HIC license — verified active
- Bathroom and kitchen remodels — repeatedly praised for detail and craftsmanship

**Concerns:**
- Labor law citation — AG cites payroll and misclassification violations
- 2026 review — describes an abandoned project and withheld refund
- Post-contract responsiveness — two dated reviews cite communication dropping off
