FS Construction & Remodeling, based in Lancaster, MA, holds a Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, HIC #197632, active on the state registry. In 2026, reviews describe a kitchen remodel and first-floor bathroom addition in an 1880 house where an out-of-code electrical system led to the whole first floor being gutted and redone, along with rotted wood trim replaced on a house front and a renovation/addition project the reviewer called efficient and responsive. Earlier reviews describe similar scope: a 2026 review about wall molding as part of a larger home remodel, a 2025 review about a kitchen remodel that grew into a bigger project finished on time and on budget, and a 2022 review describing major additions — a new basement room, a garage addition with a new primary bedroom and bath, a full kitchen renovation and a new fireplace. A 2026 review said FS ordered the wrong specification of exterior doors, including wrong hinges and no adjustable threshold, and disputed the company's explanation that the configuration was no longer made. Its website says it has more than 20 years of experience, handling projects from renovations to new home construction.
Fernando was a pleasure to work with. His team was efficient and very responsive. They did a fantastic job with our renovation/addition project. Highly recommend.
Fernando made the project so easy from start to finish. I had them replace rotted wood trim with compost around the front of the house and they did a great job. Very thankful and will be using them again for more projects.
Hired fs to install two exterior doors and ordered the wrong doors. Gave them all the specs on doors I picked out. First the therma true doors was ordered wrong, hinges were wrong and no Adjustable threshold. Was told they don’t make it like that anymore. LIED called therma true and they still make it. Installed the guts in the door and chipped a piece of the door and said nothing hoping I would not notice. Once I saw what was wrong they sent someone to fix it and it didn’t work, so he came back with car bondo to fix it. So far it worked. But the other side is cracked and was not repaired. Also when they ordered the storm door it was wrong so I waited for them to get the new door. Had to point out mistakes to installer so door would fit. Also damage to wall inside house and contract says to leave in a paintable condition. This did not happen. Now I have to hire a painter to paint my kitchen with semi gloss paint. AlsoI have to buy another door for $600.00 and pay for someone to install it. They use a lot of caulking to hide their mistakes. Screw holes were not filled properly. In my experience I would NOT recommend this company. Very expensive and D level work. Find someone else that returns calls and shows up when they say. Paid in full with CASH and have to call several times to get a receipt that says paid in full.
Originally, I had Fernando and his crew come in to remodel my kitchen and add a bathroom to the first floor of my 1880 old house. When we ran into an electrical system that was not up to code, the whole first floor got gutted and redone. His crew worked fast and were so accommodating to anything I suggested, but also were good at suggesting a better way to do things. Once the first floor was done, we decided to do the second floor since the house was already upside down. We ran into problems with a new steam boiler that was put in, but Fernando was flexible and came up with a hydronic boiler instead, super quiet and efficient! So, in total they added a walk in shower bathroom addition to the first floor, remodeled the kitchen, dining room, and living room (taking down two walls), added a gas fireplace and a bulkhead, and turned a bedroom/bath on the 2nd floor into a full bath and an additional bedroom. I can't say enough about how easy they were to work with and how nice my whole place turned out in just a little over 6 months (and a few snowstorms). I would highly recommend this crew for any job, large or small -- they can handle it!
FS Construction and Remodeling did an outstanding job. Professional, on time, and the final result looks amazing. Highly recommended!
