HJR Construction is a Dedham-based contractor that describes itself as a Massachusetts custom home builder focused on high-end new construction, home additions and renovations, working across Boston, Lexington, Brookline, Needham, Natick, Wellesley, Sharon and Wayland. Its handful of on-record jobs lean toward the kind of call that comes in after something goes wrong — a burst pipe, a flooded basement — as much as planned remodeling. The written record is five Thumbtack reviews, all five-star, from March through June 2023. Two describe flood and water-damage rebuilds: in one, a customer's water pipe burst and flooded their condo, and the crew — reviewers name Robin as the point of contact — fixed the leak within a day and wrapped the surrounding construction work within a week; in another from the same stretch, a homeowner needed open walls closed up, new insulation, a new floor and a new vanity installed after a flood, with the ceiling patched to match. A third 2023 review describes turning an unfinished basement into a finished office and workout space, and a fourth describes a straightforward kitchen range-hood swap. Across all of them, reviewers call the crew responsive, clean and efficient. What's worth asking about: the record stops there. Nothing has been added since mid-2023, and its HomeAdvisor and Angi profiles are both still marked as new with no reviews yet. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration (HIC #208626) is verified active, and Thumbtack lists the crew as background-checked. For a flood or water-damage repair, or a coordinated small remodel, the 2023 reviews are a reassuring start — just ask for a few more recent references before booking, since nothing has been added to the record in over two years.
Awesome to work with! Very clean and efficient work. Will be using them again in the near future.
Friendly, responsive and good value. They removed my above the range microwave, replaced it with a range hood and installed the vent required.
It was a pleasure working with Robin and their team. Our water pipe burst and flooded my entire condo. Robin and his team came and fixed everything in a week with a fair price. Their plumber first came over and fixed the leakage in one day, then the construction team came the next day, ripped all the junk off and installed new vanities, put in new insulation, new drywall, new flooring and baseboard.
Working with Robin was a delight! They were all very professional and efficient. They took our vision of an unfinished basement and transformed it into an elegant living space. They were able to transform a single wide open space into a cozy office, and an encouraging workout room. We are so pleased with the outcome of our basement that at times we forget that we have other floors available. I would (and already have) recommend HJR construction to anyone.
HJR was a great help to me during the post-flood rebuilding process. They were able to expertly close up the open walls, install new insulation, lay down a new floor, and install a new vanity. Additionally, they skillfully patched up the ceiling to leave it looking as good as new. Thanks to HJR's expertise and professionalism, my home was able to make a full recovery from the damage caused by the flood. I was struck by the speed at which HJR was able to complete the project within 2.5 days, and I'm thoroughly impressed with HJR's work ethic, as they consistently produce satisfactory results without any need for supervision from me. Because of their professionalism and reliability, my work has not been affected in any way. As a customer, I appreciated that HJR understood the importance of completing the project on time, and they delivered on that promise. Jamie was exceptional in communicating with me throughout the project. From the start, Jamie was attentive to my needs and concerns and made sure to keep me updated on the progress of the project. Whenever I had questions or issues, Jamie was quick to respond and resolve them, which made the entire process much smoother and less stressful. The quality of HJR's work was exceptional. The finished product was exactly what I had envisioned and more, and I was impressed by the attention to detail and level of craftsmanship that HJR brought to the project. It was clear that HJR takes pride in their work and is committed to delivering the best possible results for their clients.
