MARS Contracting in Lynn looks like a whole-project remodeler, not a one-trade crew. The company says it handles bathroom and kitchen remodels, additions, decks and porches, siding, windows, and painting across Massachusetts. It also says it grew out of cabinet making and has been in business for 30 years; its Massachusetts home improvement contractor license is active. The public ratings jump out: Google shows 5 stars from 15 ratings, Houzz shows 5.0 from 10, and BBB shows 5.0 with an A+ grade. That is a consistent picture across more than one site, not just a single listing. The review pool is still modest for a company that presents itself as long-running, so the stars tell you more here than a long trail of detailed job stories. The part to pin down before signing is the company profile. BBB lists 24 years in business, not 30, and it says MARS is not BBB accredited even though the website uses the word "Accredited." One Houzz directory blurb also appears to describe a Pittsburgh remodeler rather than this Lynn contractor, so confirm any badges, memberships, or affiliations directly. MARS fits a homeowner planning a remodel or exterior upgrade, especially if they want one contractor covering several scopes instead of lining up separate trades. Before booking, ask which parts of the job it will self-perform, who will manage the project day to day, and which business-history and accreditation details are current.

It was an absolute pleasure to work with this team, and Jorge was an absolute perfectionist when it came to finishing our powder room and leveling our basement. They were easy to work with, very responsive, and everything was done to an absolute “t,” we couldn’t be happier with the results!! 10/10 would recommend.

MARS Contracting exceeded expectations for the small tile reflooring job I needed. They came in on time and budget, worked around a few challenges and came up with a very good result. I highly recommend MARS for small and I believe, larger construction jobs. We plan to call on them for our next project.

After owning my condo on Beacon Hill for 20 years, I decided to do a complete down to the studs renovation. MARS was recommended to me by a friend/neighbor who said they had a great experience with Sal and Edgar and their crew. I’ve recommended them to 8 people in my building.<br><br>MARS is very professional, responsive and polite. I’d never done a renovation before and they educated me on the process as we worked together to make it all come together. They were patient with me when I had questions or wanted something changed and there was no mansplaining.<br><br>Go into the experience knowing it’s a team effort and you have to be available to answer questions, make decisions. It’s how you’ll be happiest with the end result.<br><br>My project was finished on time and on budget. There were no surprises because I was always kept informed. I had to move out of my unit and rented a place for three months and MARS was aware of my timeframe and we met the deadline no problem.<br><br>If you don’t use MARS for your renovation. You’re crazy. They are the best. I hated to see them go. I wanted to find another project for them. Great team. I can’t say enough about them.

Sal and his crew replaced my 30 year old deck railings. They did a beautiful job bringing my deck back to life. The crew was punctual, respectful and cleaned up each day before they left the property. The job was estimated to last three days and in fact it did. I would definitely hire Mars Contracting , LLC in the future.

I used Mars Construction for a living room renovation last fall where I had 3 old sliders and a front door replaced with new Harvey windows and a slider ...new walls were erected and drywall installed and finally the room was painted ... the work was well done and the room came out beautifully ... Just this past May I had them come and paint my house and repair whatever damaged or rotted wood they found ... The work is impeccable, sanding and scraping, repaired rotted wood and painted the complete exterior. Their workers are polite and professional and very hard workers. They were on time and kept in touch with their timeline so I knew when to expect them and when not ... I woild highly recommend Mars Contracting ...
