Roofs are what people hire Italian Construction Company for. The Marlborough company, which says it has been in business 18 years, holds 4.9 stars from 94 ratings on Google, and many of its written reviews describe a new roof, several of them finished in a day. Customers name Alberto as the owner; in several reviews he climbed up and photographed the roof before quoting. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration is active. The roofing accounts are specific. In a May 2025 review, a homeowner said the crew removed and replaced the roof and installed new gutters in one day; another May 2025 customer had two roofs replaced and said damage found in a corner under the old roof was repaired at no extra cost. A September 2025 review describes an emergency repair call that became a full roof replacement on an 1860s house in Cambridge. In a March 2024 review, a homeowner said the reroof was done in one day, the bay window work the next day, and that many of the crew had been with Alberto over 10 years. Two early-2023 HomeAdvisor reviews describe chimney repointing and new skylights along with a roof; one customer, who had four skylights installed, called them a bit expensive. The work goes past roofing, and the Better Business Bureau gives the company an A+. A December 2025 review describes Alberto acting as general contractor on a new gas fireplace, finished within a tight timeframe; a May 2026 customer had exterior stairwells and fences repaired; and in a June 2024 review a Needham homeowner had the wood soffit, fascia and trim replaced with PVC boards along with the roof. The two newest reviews are complaints. In September 2026 and August 2026, two Google reviewers gave one star over a structure Alberto built in their yard without a permit. One said the town posted a stop-work notice and told them pulling the permit was the contractor's job, and that Alberto said he would charge them to take it down and refused a refund. The other, describing a carport, said the town made them take it down, that Alberto said he'd have to charge again, and that the structure had been leveled with nuts and washers. By contrast, a September 2025 customer whose historic building got two big projects wrote that the company got all permits from the city.
Alberto built a structure in our yard. One day, we received a stop work notice on our door from the town. We reached out to the town who asked for the contractor's name. The town indicated "it is the contractor's job to pull the permit for the work he does and he should've known better." We reached out to ask Alberto to help us take it down and he said he would charge us and then began avoiding our calls. We then reached out to see if we could come to a fair resolution via a refund for the work and he said "no way." Would not recommend utilizing this contractor for work.
This guy put up a carport for us without pulling permits and the town made me and my wife who (was post-partum with a c-section) take it down after Alberto said he'd have to re-charge me when it was his mistake for not pulling the permit in the first place!!!! Upon taking it apart, I noticed he "leveled" the structure with nuts and washers!!!! Not only did I lose money on the job but also on the materials I then had to disassemble and store under my shed!! Extremely unprofessional, untrustworthy, and dangerous.
Italian Construction recently replaced our roof and did a wonderful job. They were on time, on budget, neat and clean and reasonably priced. They came very well recommended from a few references, and we highly recommend them to other home owners.
Very , hardworking team, good staff, fast and accurate working, highly recommended
This company repaired our exterior stairwells and fences with quality workmanship, thoroughness and fair pricing. Highly recommended.
