CHARLES RIVER CONTRACTING, INC.

Charles River Contracting is a Medfield general contracting company run by Neil O'Connor — the kind of outfit someone calls for a genuine room-by-room remodel rather than a quick patch job. The one customer account on file is a full kitchen and dining room remodel in West Roxbury. The homeowner said they weren't sure what they wanted going in, and that O'Connor walked them through the design and build process, kept the home noticeably cleaner than expected during construction, and finished under budget and on time — a five-star Houzz review from late 2022. Worth asking about before booking: BuildZoom's tracking shows the company's Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor / General Contractor registration (#131664) listed as inactive, with an expiration date in August 2024 — worth confirming current licensing and insurance directly rather than relying on the directory listing. Beyond that one project, there isn't much of a public review history to go on. A reasonable call for a homeowner planning a full kitchen or room remodel who wants a hands-on design conversation before the build starts, as long as the license status gets checked first.
