What does a remodeling project cost in Greater Boston?
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Forty One Construction. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
— demolition through tile, electrical and paint in a month
Decks and siding — new deck, back-wall siding and patio on one job
Owner on site — Daniel quotes the work and reviewers deal with him
Itemised estimates — a customer contrasted them with cookie-cutter pitches
Small jobs welcome — a porch swing hung, a storm door fitted at the quoted price
Price accounts differ — one reviewer found them well above competing quotes
Missed proposal meetings — a Yahoo listing reports two that did not happen
Review burst — thirteen one-line reviews landed across two days in July 2024
Tenure claims disagree — BBB says four years, Thumbtack says eleven
Two dated 1987 bathrooms dragged into this century, a shared wall shifted to buy a bigger shower, heated floors put in underneath — that account, written in 2026, is the kind of job Forty One Construction gets written up for most. It is a fair picture of the range too: bathrooms and kitchens inside, decks and siding outside, from a Hyannis shop working Cape Cod and the Boston area.
Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration is active. Its Better Business Bureau page is an A+ and accredited, and the BBB file also lists a Construction Supervisor licence, CS-123114, running to 2030 — that one is the BBB's record rather than something checked against the state here.
One name runs through nearly every review: Daniel, with Felipe and Ariane turning up beside him. A customer writing in 2025 contracted a new deck, replacement siding across the back of the house and a new patio, and said the crews "show up when they say their going to be on the job and stay until the work is done." Another in 2026 called them for something as small as hanging a porch swing, and a 2025 reviewer had a storm door fitted for the price quoted.
Price is where accounts pull apart. A reviewer in late 2025 said the team was "significantly higher priced than other quotes I received" — and hired them anyway. Others across the same stretch called the pricing fair and reasonable, and a 2026 customer specifically praised an itemised estimate against rivals who offered only cookie-cutter options. Ask for that itemisation.
The review history also has a shape worth knowing before you read the numbers. Thirteen reviews landed across two days in July 2024 and are almost all one-line endorsements; the detailed, job-specific accounts start after that and run to now. Weigh the 2025 and 2026 write-ups, not the total. There is one dissenting voice outside the review platforms as well: a Yahoo local listing carries a complaint from a would-be customer who says the owner twice set up a meeting to deliver a proposal and it did not happen.
Sources also disagree about how old and how big this company is — the BBB file says four years and two employees, the Thumbtack profile says eleven years and fourteen. The registry record and the review history both start recently, so treat the longer claim carefully.
For a bathroom, a kitchen or a deck on the Cape, this is a credible call, and the recent write-ups are unusually specific about what was actually built. Get the estimate itemised and confirm who will be on site each day.

“Unfortunately for me i did not have a good experience with Forty One Construction. On two separate occasions, the owner Daniel scheduled appointments to meet about a job and to give me a proposal....”
We hired Forty One to resurface our deck and to replace stairs and railings. Their work is fantastic. Very detailed and you can tell they have pride in their work. Daniel and his crew worked every day, amazing long hours and showed up when they said they would. We could not be more pleased with the outcome. So much so that we hired them to do some additional small projects. Give them a call - you won’t be disappointed!
Daniel and Felipe are great to work with and their employees are extremely skilled. Highly recommend and I will be using them again for projects in the future.
I reached out to 41 Construction for a small job to hang my porch swing. They were very responsive, professional & did great quality work. I must say it was a great value!! We just moved into our home & will have many more projects that we will be using 41 Construction for going forward. Thank you
