Two names show up in nearly every review of Cape Cod Remodeling: Richard and Leo. Richard Avery and Leo Sampaio run this Cape Cod design-build outfit as business partners, and their Houzz profile says the company has been at it for 27 years, taking on whole-home remodels, large additions and accessory dwelling units at a typical job cost of $250,000 to $1 million. The work people describe is the big, complicated kind. In April 2026 a homeowner walked through an 800-square-foot one-bedroom ADU built on a lot where "the design, permitting, inspections. etc were difficult" — new kitchen, living room, office and bathroom, plus a new septic system and roof for both houses and an upgraded electrical service, delivered in the time the contract said. Another April 2026 review covers a whole-house remodel and addition originally estimated at nine months that came in just shy of seven. A Mashpee homeowner writing the same month described three bedrooms, two and a half baths, a kitchen, a fireplace and floors sanded and stained, staying on budget through a run of severe snow and wind storms. Schedule and money are the through-line. A 2022 reviewer put an eight-month renovation-plus-garage-and-guest-suite project "on schedule and on budget" and credited the pair with coordinating every subcontractor so they actually showed up; a 2020 reviewer said the final cost "did not change from his original proposal" on a 2012 job and that Richard won a later addition bid on a fair price and a realistic timeframe. Houzz averages 5.0 across 36 ratings, with equal 5.0 subscores for work quality, communication and value, and BuildZoom's permit records show 66 permitted projects across Cape Cod and Plymouth — an independent trace of the same work. One thing to settle before signing. BuildZoom lists three Massachusetts home improvement contractor registrations for the company — #134351, #108115 and #162187 — all shown as inactive, with #134351 recorded as expired since 11-01-2003 and the status noted as cancelled at some point. Houzz separately lists a construction supervisor number, CSL 084771. Neither was confirmed against the state registry here, so ask them directly for a current HIC registration number and check it on the Office of Consumer Affairs site — Massachusetts remodelers doing this scale of work are normally registered. Every written account sits on Houzz, so there is no second platform to cross-check against. That said, if you're planning an addition, an in-law ADU or a gut remodel on the Cape and want the same two people on the job from design through punch list, this is the profile that keeps describing exactly that.
Our daughter who was living with us has started a family and needed a place of their own. We decided an Assessory Dwelling Unit would make the most sense for all of us. The design, permitting, inspections. etc were difficult for our lot. Richard & Leo were recommended to me by my future son-in law who has an HVAC company on Cape Cod. He has worked with many contractors and introduced us. We have been very happy with every step of the way. They built for us a one bedroom ADU, aprox 800 sq ft.. Nice big kitchen, Living room, office and bathroom. New septic system and roof for both houses. The time it took matched the contract. The price was fair and as agreed to. We only decided to upgrade our new stove to Induction and added tiles in the kitchen. The quality of workmanship from start to finish was excellent. They also helped with removing a wall in the existing house so we kept the homes to three bedrooms total. Upgraded the electrical service to handle both homes. Leo is the best! he responds immediately if you call. His experience, dedication and friendly attitude is impressive. Richard's design skills helped us so much.
We are finishing up a whole house remodel with an addition. This was a huge project, and our initial estimates for completion was 9 months. It's just shy of 7 months, and we are almost done! Leo and his crew worked day and night to make this happen. From our first design meetings until the end, Leo and Richard guided us through everything. They were always responsive with our questions and concerns, and helped us keep costs down whenever possible. Our 1970s ranch is now a beautiful modern showplace! Cape Cod Remodeling was highly recommended to us by friends, and now I am happy to recommend them to others.
My husband and I are having our home in Mashpee MA remodeled by Cape Cod Remodeling. Richard and Leo have been fabulous to work with on this project. They have communicated with us the entire time. If I had a question, I would receive a call or text immediately. I knew where we were every step of the way. The workmanship is superb. We are having 3 bedrooms, 2 1/2 bathrooms, the kitchen, fireplace, all the floors sanded and stained. We also had new treads put on the staircase . One of the best features we added was nickel shiplap. I am extremely pleased with the results. The home is now 50% complete. In spite of several severe snow and wind storms throughout the remodel, they have stayed on budget and have met all of our expectations. I would highly recommend hiring Cape Cod Remodeling.
I want to express my appreciation for Richard and Leo from Cape Cod Remodeling LLC for their excellent work renovating my house. From start to finish, they demonstrated professionalism and skill. Their attention to detail, craftsmanship, and clear communication made the process smooth and stress-free. The final result (delivered on time and on budget!) exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend Cape Cod Remodeling LLC for their top-notch service and dedication to quality work.
Cape Cod remodeling helped me completely renovate my Wellfleet, Cape Cod home. They were a pleasure to work with, had excellent subcontractors, responded in a timely manner and kept me completely up-to-date on the project. Any issues that arose were handled professionally and fairly. I had so much peace of mind working with Leo and Richard because they truly cared about the project and wanted to make sure I was happy with the results. I am. I am beyond happy with the final result. I have no reservations about recommending them for your project. They can do anything!
