D'Alelio Construction Company, Inc.

D'Alelio Construction, run by owner Anthony D'Alelio, built a reputation in Massachusetts for drainage and exterior work — an interior French drain, patios, retaining walls, stairs, and foundation estimates all show up in customer reviews. In a 2010 review, one homeowner described Anthony arriving on time and doing a "great job" installing an interior French drain. Another, also in 2010, said he finished a patio in time for a wedding with days to spare, and a third the same year praised a retaining wall and stairs completed on short notice before a family event. A 2008 account recounts landscape work delayed by frozen winter ground, then completed the following spring exactly as promised. Across those 2008–2011 reviews, the recurring themes are punctuality, clear communication, and cleanup — customers said the crew, from the person answering the phone to the guys on the job, were "pleasant and easy to work with", and several said they'd use the company again. Two accounts stand out as concerns. A 2010 review described cement work that cracked within months of completion, with the customer saying the company blamed road salt rather than taking responsibility, though the cracks were later patched. A 2009 review reported repeated missed appointments with no call to explain the absence. Both are worth asking about, especially since there's no review or account newer than 2011 to say whether these patterns continued. For a homeowner considering a French drain, retaining wall, or patio job, the 2008–2011 reviews point to a company that generally delivered as promised and communicated well — but given how old this written history is, it's worth confirming current licensing, availability, and how the two negative accounts were resolved before booking.
