In a January 2026 review, a homeowner described converting a section of their bottom floor into a master bedroom suite with Brothers Remodeling & Design. That is the size of job this Gardner, Massachusetts design-build company takes on — kitchens, additions, bathrooms, basements, decks and roofs, by its own description. Customers writing between 2020 and 2025 name Art, listed as president Arthur Aponte on the company's BBB profile, as the person they dealt with, sometimes alongside Scott. The written accounts run from 2019 into early 2026 across Angi, HomeAdvisor, Google and BBB, with 4.9 stars from 18 ratings on Angi and the same figure on HomeAdvisor. A homeowner writing in April 2024 had a kitchen remodeled and expanded by removing a wall for an open floor plan, and said the site was kept immaculately clean while the family went on living in the house. In a December 2023 review, a couple who had just finished remodeling their home credited the craftsmanship and the design ideas that came up mid-project. Two July 2019 customers singled out the cleanup, one adding that the company left the property very clean and followed up afterwards to check they were satisfied with the work. On money, a February 2022 customer said there were no hidden costs and the company was up front about what to expect; a June 2020 reviewer said they were given a credit when the job finished ahead of schedule. A July 2021 homeowner was pleased enough with basement work to plan a kitchen with them next. The snag comes from the most recent detailed account. A November 2025 customer, having a small room off the kitchen remodeled for a stackable washer and dryer, said Art and his crew were pleasant and did a fine job, but that getting permits was slow and inspections added time to finishing the project. Two other things to pin down: the company's own site prints 213 School Street and 978.955.2260 while its BBB profile lists 115 Jonathan St and (978) 549-0727, and its Google profile averages 3 stars across two ratings, under the 4.9 it carries on Angi and HomeAdvisor. Its site lists HIC #196086 and construction supervisor licence CS #083490, BuildZoom lists the same HIC number, and BuildZoom shows 21 permitted projects across central Massachusetts towns between 2020 and 2025. For a Gardner-area homeowner planning a kitchen, a basement conversion or a remodel they will be living through, Brothers is a sensible call. Get the permit timeline written into the schedule at the start — that is where the one recent complaint landed — and confirm the office address and licence numbers on the contract.
Actually, we converted a section of the bottom floor into a master bedroom suite. Can't say enough about the excellence of this team. From their outstanding communication skills, professional attitude and performance, willingness to go the extra mile to support and provide guidance. We have worked with a number of contractors at various homes over the years and they are by far the best we have ever had the pleasure of working with. We would have no hesitation about having them work on another project for us. Excellent team!
Remodel a small room off kitchen to put in a stackable washer and dryer. Art and his crew were always pleasant and respectful. They all did a fine job. Getting permits was slow and inspections added time to finishing the project. In my opinion, letting a client know at least a day ahead when someone was coming to do work on the project would be nice for the client for planning their day. The room looks nice. Thanks to Art and his crew for their nice work. Linda
We recently had our kitchen remodeled and expanded by removing a wall to create an open floor plan. The contractor did an outstanding job. Throughout the renovation, they kept the site immaculately clean, which was much appreciated as we were living in the house at the time. They were always respectful of our space and provided knowledgeable recommendations for suppliers and installers. The entire process was handled professionally, and we are thrilled with the results. Highly recommend!
My wife and I have recently completed a remodel of our home with Brothers Remodeling. The finished product was more than we expected! The craftmanship, mindfulness, communication throughout the project, and the design ideas and improvements during the project from Art and his team turned our vision into a reality. We could not have been more satisfied with the finished product! Please do not make the mistake I made. About 3 years prior, I decided to install new floors and chose one of those big TV companies to perform the work. After Art's team came in and started working, I realized even more how much of a mistake it was to choose the TV company. I end up tearing out and replacing the TV company's floors and wasted money in the process. The TV company's craftsmanship was poor at best. I had to have the kitchen floors torn out twice and replaced. Art and his team at Brothers Remodeling are truly consummate professionals!! All the sub-contractors such as plumbers, tile & floor installers, painters, and electricians treated our home throughout the process with respect and professionalism. I was never concerned about having people in my home while I was not there, and neither should you! If you need or want work performed on your home, you must go with Brothers Remodeling!! You will not regret it! As they say, measure twice, and cut once, well, with Brothers Remodeling, you only need to measure once, and cut once!
Amazing crew to work with. Professional and courteous.
