Loureiro Co - Building Your Dream

Loureiro Co - Building Your Dream is a Hudson general contractor whose reviews keep circling back to one name: Rafael. Homeowners describe him running additions, kitchen and bathroom remodels, and outdoor builds — including a 2022 porch and outdoor kitchen project — with hands-on involvement rather than overseeing subcontractors from a distance. The company's Google page shows 4.9 stars across 27 ratings, and the written record behind that runs from December 2021 to October 2025. The earlier reviews carry the most detail: in a February 2022 review, a homeowner described a full kitchen renovation that turned the dining and living rooms into one open space, with the crew showing up on time every day. A November 2022 review of a master bedroom and bathroom addition said Rafael's team "kept us informed each step of the way" and stayed responsive to questions. A December 2021 reviewer specifically called out reasonable rates. A run of shorter reviews from May 2025 adds more praise for professionalism, though with less specific detail than the earlier accounts. The record isn't spotless. In a September 2024 review, a homeowner described jack studs cut incorrectly under a door header — a measurement error by the crew — and said more problems kept surfacing the closer they looked at the finished work. It's the one substantive complaint in an otherwise consistent history, and worth raising directly: what happens when something is measured or built wrong, and how a callback gets handled. On Houzz, the company lists an OSHA 30 certification and training from Boston's carpentry school, and shows ten completed projects spanning decking, framing, additions, and full remodels. For someone planning an addition, a full remodel, or a larger outdoor build, that mix of a hands-on owner and a real multi-year project history is the case for hiring them — just get the measurements and scope nailed down in writing before work starts.
