GN Exteriors, run out of Braintree by owner Manny, has built one of the deepest and most consistent records in this corpus — 178 reviews since 2020, all five stars, with 26 more landing in just the last six months and zero negative accounts anywhere in that span. The company holds an active Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, and BBB has it at an A+, accredited rating. The range of work is wide, but the throughline is speed and communication under pressure. A 2026 review described a plumbing vent with a damaged seal: Manny called back within an hour of being contacted and had a crew member assessing the problem that same day. Another 2026 account described a three-season porch badly damaged in a windstorm, where the crew put together a repair plan on the spot and started immediately, covering both the roof and the interior wall damage. Storm and emergency calls come up again and again — ice dam removal, nor'easter damage, a shattered skylight fixed the day after a fallen tree branch — and reviewers consistently note a same-day or next-day response. The bigger jobs show real range too. A 2026 review described an extensive, multi-contractor search that ended with GN taking on a three-story, 19th-century Victorian split into seven oceanfront condo units — work the reviewer called truly challenging. A 2025 review described an 11-unit condo association re-roof in Jamaica Plain that spanned three different roofing materials — asphalt shingle, rubber, and slate — on one building. And a 2023 review described a 1905 house with a steep, high main roof plus four smaller roof sections and three layers of old material to strip, a job the crew worked steadily for two full days to get through. Beyond roofs, siding and gutters are a real second leg of the business — reviews describe full siding replacements, a gutter system resized after the original builder under-specified it for the house, and repeat customers who've had GN back for multiple projects over several years. Manny himself comes up in nearly every account: inspecting jobs personally, explaining costs and options upfront, and following up after the work is done. Get the full scope, materials, and timeline spelled out in the written estimate before work starts — standard practice for a project at this scale.
GN Exteriors replaced our roof for us. I looked at multiple quotes and ultimately, Manny's knowledge of the job, understanding of materials, honest, and communication was so compelling that I went with GN Exteriors even over other contractors that I'd worked with before or came in lower. I was not disappointed. The job was done quickly and with excellence. They communicated well at every stage and even provided the step-by-step drone photos attached so I could understand and approve each decision. When we had small changes to the original scope — e.g. clearing some downspouts, they were very reasonable. Great experience with the GN crew. Would recommend without reservation for your roofing job!
After an extensive and detailed search which included interviewing multiple contractors, we selected GN EXTERIORS. Given the scope of the work on a three story 19th century Victorian, with seven condominiums, located alongside the Atlantic Ocean, the job was truly challenging. GN was extremely responsive and knowledgeable throughout the entire project using all of their expertise in doing a superlative job. It doesn’t get any better! All the owners could not be happier with the result. Recommended them highly without any reservation.
GN exteriors was excellent to work with. Manny responded very quickly and was very accommodating setting up appointment. His crew was very professional and worked very hard from setup and replacing the roof to cleanup afterwards. They did an excellent job and would highly recommend
The team was quick, responsive and explained everything thoroughly. We didn’t have to think about anything. Highly recommend!
GN Exteriors just completed a large siding project for our condominium association - we have a complicated large beach house that contains 7 units. From the very beginning, Manny was incredible. He had very good recommendations and his price was extremely reasonable. The entire process went very smoothly and all of us (7 individual condos in the building) were very happy with the result. Manny was extremely responsive, answering calls and emails very quickly and with good explanations. In fact, several of us had him do some extra work for individual units and people were thrilled with the work and results. I couldn't recommend him more highly.
