EM Remodeling is the kind of contractor homeowners call for a kitchen or bath overhaul and keep calling for the next project. The Groton company says it is owner-operated by Edson and has been in business for 15 years, with work spanning carpentry, interior and exterior remodeling, decks, and custom pieces. The recent reviews are unusually consistent about the working relationship as well as the finished work. In 2026, homeowners described a bathroom remodel paired with a structural floor repair, and a 2025 shower remodel; both accounts mention careful work, communication, and a clean, respectful jobsite. Other recent Google reviews describe basement remodels, a kitchen and half-bath renovation, permitting help, and deck and porch work, repeatedly crediting Edson with detailed craftsmanship, practical recommendations, and timely updates. The longer history fills in the range: reviews from 2024 describe full kitchen and bath remodels, a mudroom addition, closet work, siding repair, and living-room lighting, while 2023 reviews mention windows, tile, a half-wall, staircase railing, and porch steps. Older Thumbtack accounts, dated 2016–2020, describe a deck rebuild, finished basement, painting, railing, shed removal, and carpentry completed on schedule or within budget. The written history is overwhelmingly positive: 28 reviews from 2016 through 2026, including 23 Google ratings at 5 stars and 16 Thumbtack ratings at 5.0. Before booking, confirm the exact scope, permitting responsibilities, schedule, and which portions Edson or his team will handle, especially on a whole-room renovation. EM Remodeling looks best suited to homeowners who want one carpentry-led partner for a substantial remodel, detailed finish work, or a sequence of projects; get the materials, milestones, and change-order process in writing.

EM Remodeling did an outstanding job on our renovation. The team was professional, reliable, and paid close attention to every detail throughout the project. Communication was excellent, the work was completed on schedule, and the finished results exceeded our expectations. The quality of craftsmanship is top-notch, and they left everything clean and organized. I highly recommend EM Remodeling to anyone looking for dependable, high-quality remodeling services.
We hired Edson to remodel our bathroom and fix a structural issue with our floor. He gave very good recommendations that saved us a lot of money and did an exceptional job building it. He is extremely detailed oriented and has great experience and taste. Whenever we had questions, he took the time to explain it to us in detail. Another great thing by is that he was willing to work with our own electrician so he is very flexible. We’re definitely going to hire him for other projects around our house.
Edson and Mike were great to work with and did a very nice job with our shower remodel. They were communicative, respectful, and kept the work area clean throughout the project. We would definitely work with them again and recommend them to others!
Our basement remodel came out fantastic! After having a series of bad interactions with contractors, EM Remodeling has restored my faith that good companies do exist. Communication was constant, the owner is a pleasure to work with, and the prices are very reasonable. I will be recommending them to anyone who needs work done.
We hired Edson for our basement remodel project. We are delighted with the result and even more with how the project was managed. Edson is one of the best contractors we have ever worked with and would recommend him to anyone. He is pleasant, respectful, extremely reliable, and he communicates every step of the way. He takes pride in his work and it shows.
