Customers of GM Carpentry & Remodeling write about Marcelo by name. The Danbury, Connecticut carpentry outfit holds a 5.0-star average across 21 ratings on both HomeAdvisor and Angi. Those reviews run from 2021 to January 2026 and cover doors, decks, porches, siding, a garage and a kitchen. The longer accounts tell the story. In an October 2023 review, a homeowner said Marcelo gave a quick estimate, ordered materials, was at the house every morning and even on a Saturday, and left the new deck and yard spotless. Another that month hired the team to replace siding that turned into a partial roof replacement, and said Marcelo and Henry finished all of it in four days. A January 2022 customer, new to Connecticut, said Marcelo removed, sanded and painted the kitchen cabinets and installed a new wall oven and dishwasher within the agreed deadline, in time to host family for Christmas. In April 2025, customers who hired him to find a leak said he patiently diagnosed it, replaced a window, and charged a fair price; they have used the company for big and small jobs since. An October 2024 reviewer had a side porch and picket fence installed and noted the company carried insurance including workers' compensation. Two reviews flag friction. A July 2024 customer said the original project was done as bid, but extensive hidden rot led to major extras, and a May 2021 reviewer said he could sometimes be hard to reach for a call back. Its Connecticut home improvement registration, HIC.0663012, is active under GM Carpentry & Remodeling LLC.
Marcelo and his team did an exceptional job. Marcelo is a craftsman and very detail oriented. Marcelo is also very professional and prompt and I appreciated the open communication on project status and when he and his team would be on site.
Marcello did a beautiful job installing a new door. He clearly loves what he does. Highly recommend
We hired Marcelo and his team to find and fix a leak. It involved assessing the problem which he patiently did and determined the best fix which involved a window replacement. His work was professional, efficient and fairly priced. We have been using GM Carpentry and remodeling for both big and small jobs ever since.
Marcelo was a joy to work with! He installed a new side porch for us and a new picket fence. Both jobs were done perfectly and he and his employees were very neat. (Also, had all the necessary insurance coverage, including WC.) Highly recommend!
Original project was done just as bid. Extensive latent rot led to major extras.
