KSC Contractors

KSC Contractors is a Waltham, MA renovation company run by Ken Corb, and its written record — which stretches from 2013 through 2024 — centers on one specialty above all: safely removing lead paint from older New England homes. The Better Business Bureau lists the company as a full service renovation shop offering remodeling services and general home repairs, and gives it an A+ rating. The deleading reviews are detailed and span more than a decade. In a 2024 review, a customer said Ken 'helped remove and cover up lead paint in our house,' got the job done in two days, and 'passed a state mandated lead dust wipe test on the first try.' In a 2020 review, another homeowner described 'lead abatement work which meant he had to replace a significant number of windows (15) in our very old house built in 1700s.' In a 2016 review, someone who needed lead-painted cedar shakes stripped before residing wrote that 'One layer of paint contained lead so I obtained several quotations from lead paint contractors to remove the shakes' and picked Ken because his was the lowest. A separate 2016 reviewer who hired him to de-lead a house in Brookline called him 'an expert in his field,' and a 2014 review described him as 'a master tradesman.' The one thing worth flagging on timing: nothing in the written record shown here is newer than October 2024, so it's worth confirming the company is still actively taking on lead-abatement work before relying on the star average alone. For safely removing lead paint from an older home — including the state clearance testing that comes with it — this is a contractor with a long, well-documented history of doing exactly that; confirm current availability and scheduling directly given the gap since the newest review on file.
