In July 2026 a customer had the upper level of their barn turned into usable space: new flooring, replacement windows, insulation, a custom bar built into the room, and the old wiring that fed the building replaced. Makeover and Finishes Group is an Acton company set up for exactly that spread of work — its site describes ground-up builds, additions, full-scale home renovations, kitchen and bathroom remodels and decks across Greater Boston, lists Igor Almeida as CEO and Leila Almeida as CNO, and claims more than 10 years in the area. Where the jobs get complicated, what customers describe is the paperwork and the trades being run for them. A February 2026 customer renovating in Andover said the company pulled the permits, coordinated and supervised all the subcontractors, and kept the project running from start to finish. On Angi in May 2026, a homeowner said dealing with the town of Weston over permitting for their addition was hard going, and that Igor and Lucas took it in stride and managed the details down to the seams on the shiplap. Google sits at 5 stars across 64 ratings, and several of those are the same households coming back. An April 2026 reviewer has had bathrooms, a kitchen and most recently a finished basement done by this team. A May 2026 customer in Saugus had several rooms remodeled and said the job site was kept clean. In a May 2023 review, a homeowner said they had used the company over five years across two homes they own. When a June 2025 basement remodel and addition ran into issues, that customer said Igor came back quickly with a range of solutions. Price is part of why some people called. A July 2026 customer found the company through Angie's list after other contractors quoted much higher, and a July 2025 attic renovation customer who had started looking in mid-2024 described running into shockingly high bids elsewhere. The company's Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration is active, and it is certified as a Minority Business Enterprise by the state's Supplier Diversity Office. On timing, the accounts differ. A June 2024 guest bathroom customer said the process was mostly smooth but there were a few minor delays; a May 2024 customer said their project came in on time and within budget, and a May 2024 bathroom renovation finished on time with the work area kept clean. For a whole-house renovation, an addition, or a basement or attic that needs a general contractor to run both the trades and the town, this is a reasonable call. Get the schedule written down with its milestones, and if your house is old, ask how surprises get handled once walls are open — a May 2024 reviewer's 1838 home needed external repairs, and the June 2025 customer above is the one who described being given options when things went sideways.
A very easy to work with team; they handle everything quickly and professionally. We simply love the project they delivered. I would definitely recommend them.
Been great experience since the start of the project and looking forward to completing it in near future.
We cannot say enough positive things about Makeover Finishes. I found them through Angie’s list, and when all the other contractors quoted us much higher prices, we took a chance on Igor and Lucas and were so pleased with the process, pricing, and level of detail. A tree had fallen on our garage, and we had to deal with permitting because we live on wetlands in a town that has a reputation for being difficult. They took on the project with such a positive attitude and went above and beyond to attend to every detail while keeping our costs down. We are so grateful to have found them.
We hired Maize to renovate our barn and make better use of the upper level. The project included installing new flooring, replacing the windows, adding insulation, and building a custom bar in the space. They also replaced the old electrical wiring that was feeding the barn and completed the necessary electrical updates inside. Everything was well coordinated, and the team kept us informed throughout the project. The upper level looks completely different now. It is comfortable, functional, and much more inviting than before. We are very happy with the final result and would definitely work with Maize again in the future.
I couldn’t be happier with the work that Makeover and Finishes Group did. From the very beginning, the entire process was incredibly organized and professional. Their team listened carefully to my ideas, respected every decision I made, and kept me informed throughout the entire project. One thing I truly appreciated was how well they stayed within the budget we had planned. Every change was clearly explained before moving forward, so there were never any surprises. They also maintained an excellent timeline and delivered exactly what they promised. Their craftsmanship, attention to detail, and professionalism exceeded my expectations. This powder room is only the beginning of our home renovation, and I honestly can’t wait to share the other rooms they are remodeling for us. If you’re looking for a trustworthy contractor who communicates well, respects your budget, delivers beautiful work, and truly cares about their clients, I highly recommend Makeover and Finishes Group. They have earned our trust, and we will continue working with them throughout our renovation. Thank you to the entire team for making the first finished room in our home so beautiful!
