G&M Home Improvements Services is a two-person Framingham general contractor run by Alexandre Silva — Alex to his customers — trading at 118 Union Ave Ste 13 and also known as G&M Home Improvements Co. and G & M Services Company. The Better Business Bureau records the business as established in Massachusetts in 2001 with a start date of January 2002, and HomeAdvisor carries the company's own description of itself as family owned and operated, in business since 2001, with Spanish spoken. The work described across the directories is small-to-mid residential: kitchen and bathroom remodeling, carpentry, deck and step repair, painting and drywall, plus masonry — retaining walls, walkways, patios and stone driveways. What customers write about is Alex himself. A 2022 Google reviewer had a medicine cabinet and vanity light installed and wrote that he also repaired a badly damaged wall and refused any extra money for it. Four Angi reviews from November 2019 tell the same kind of story: rotted wood above new steps fixed without it having been in the estimate, the best solution at the best price, easy to work with, versatile and affordable. A 2006 HomeAdvisor customer praised the workmanship. Google shows 5 stars from 8 ratings and Angi 5.0 from 4. Two things are worth knowing before booking. First, the written record is dated — the newest written account on file is from 2022 and the four Angi reviews are all from November 2019, so there is little recent detail about how the business runs today. Second, the Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor registration the company advertises is real but lapsed: the state registry shows registration 173830, filed in Framingham to Alexandre Da Silva at this business's own address and phone, issued in October 2023 and expired on 25 October 2025. Angi still displays it as a current licence. Ask whether it has since been renewed, and get the answer before signing, since HIC registration is what gives a homeowner access to the state Guaranty Fund. For a small remodel or repair where the owner does the work himself, the accounts on file are consistently warm. For anything larger, confirm the registration status and ask for recent references.
Alex went above and beyond for us with his professionalism and craftsmanship. He installed a medicine Cabinet and a vanity light in our bathroom. He not only performed those tasks but he repaired a badly damaged wall and did not want any more money for the extra work. Alex did an outstanding job and we will be using his services in the future. I highly recommend Alex for any home project, big or small. Ted Geller Framingham, MA
Alex did a great. He is versatile, creative and affordable
It went great. The person that I spoke to the phone was professional, timely and good communicating.
It went very well. He came out with the best solution and best price. He's easy to work with.
All the work was completed with excellent results. Alex is courteous and responsive to suggestions and requests. For example, some wood above the new steps had rotted out. "No problem," Alex said. "I can fix that," even though this was a job we'd never discussed in our estimate. This is his typical response. I assume his prices are in line with other contractors. However, I never asked others for estimates because he seemed knowledgeable and only worked with one helper at most. I'm glad I chose him and will call on him again, I'm sure.
