Home Options General Contractors, LLC is a Hopkinton, Massachusetts general contracting company owned by Oren Shahar. It's a young business -- incorporated in late 2023 -- and holds an active Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor license (#210470), verified independently on both BuildZoom and Angi/HomeAdvisor. The company's self-reported work covers kitchen, bathroom, basement, and garage remodeling, home additions, and sunroom or patio enclosures, serving Hopkinton and towns across Middlesex and Norfolk counties.
The bulk of the customer record is strongly positive. Angi and HomeAdvisor both show a 5.0 rating from 7 reviews, every one five stars, and several describe specific, dated projects rather than vague praise. A November 2024 review called the entire remodeling experience professional, efficient, and hassle-free, with excellent and responsive communication throughout. An August 2024 review credited owner Oren and on-site project manager El with handling both personalization work and emergency repairs on a recently flipped house, contrasting the experience favorably with prior contractors the homeowner called unreliable. Other 2024 reviews describe a $33,000 kitchen remodel completed on time with no hassles, a $30,000 kitchen remodel finished on schedule and under budget, and an $80,000 garage build completed ahead of schedule. A BuildZoom review from January 2024 describes turning a deck into a three-season room.
Worth asking about before booking: a Better Business Bureau review on file describes a different experience -- poor communication, lack of accountability, and inconsistent workmanship on that project. BBB's own A+ grade for the company is explicitly based on how long it has been operating rather than on customer satisfaction, so it shouldn't be read as vouching for the work itself. Angi and HomeAdvisor both state the company offers free estimates and warranties, but does not offer emergency services.
Home Options looks like a reasonable fit for a Hopkinton-area homeowner planning a defined remodeling project -- a kitchen, bathroom, basement, or garage -- who wants a small, owner-involved company: the reviews repeatedly credit Oren personally with hands-on attention. Given the one negative account alongside a strong run of detailed, positive ones, it's worth asking for recent references and a clear written scope before signing, as with any young company.
