A 2019 customer whose home was destroyed by fire said Pete and Phil's proposal detailed everything discussed at the walk-through, and that Phil's team rebuilt the house with a redesigned layout, paying attention to every detail. Martelly Building & Design's website says Phil J. Martelly is the fifth generation of carpenters in the Martelly family of Swansea, Massachusetts, and started his own construction company in 2003. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration is active on the state registry. A 2020 customer said that after a house fire, Phil, Pete, Mike, Gerry, Kevin and others helped build the family's home and fixed things the customer had not noticed. A 2021 customer wrote that Phil's team added 400 square feet to the back of the house to enlarge the kitchen, plus a mud room. A 2019 customer said the company replaced most of the exterior wood with PVC, reshingled much of two sides of the house, replaced 6 windows and 4 exterior doors, and remodeled the kitchen and pantry. A 2018 customer said Phil got their kitchen renovation done in 3 weeks and kept them aware of progress each day. A 2018 customer said Pete, Phil and their team tore down multiple levels of ceiling, found and repaired the source of a leak, and put the living room back together. A 2019 customer said the Martelly crew tore down and rebuilt a staircase in their garage. A 2019 customer said Phil's team completely renovated a storefront on Thayer Street in Providence, with the final cost right around the overall budget. On Houzz the company holds 4.8 stars from 18 ratings; Google shows 4.2 stars from 9. A 2021 customer, whose window installation was assigned to Martelly by the window manufacturer, said the crew showed up an hour later than promised, ignored a request, and left without saying they were finished or closing the front door.
Great job highly recommended. Prompt professional service. Quality craftsmanship. Check out his work at the Red Door in Providence. RI You won't be disappointed.
Martelly was chosen by my windows manufacturer for my installation. It started with difficulty in scheduling. The foreman of the project assured me it would be done and timely and the installers would so a great job. On the day of installation, the foreman was there and the crew showed up an hour later than promised. One crewman said hello snd introduced himself and the others just ignored me. I had one request which Rick agreed too only to find that was ignored too. Obviously the three were having a bad day. When they left, they just left. The crew did not tell me they were finished or even bother to close my front door. They just left. If I had known this would’ve been the service I’d receive, I would have bought elsewhere.
My husband and I interviewed six contractors and made a great decision going with Phil and his team. They added 400 square feet on the back side of our house to enlarge the kitchen space and also added a spacious mud room. The entire crew who worked on the house were superb! They were always quick to respond to any questions we had or changes we wanted to make and they worked with us every step of the way. I especially loved their attention to detail and the pride that was taken in their work. We now have a beautiful kitchen area and new open space that was created. If we tackle another project, we know who we will call! December 30th 2020.
Great guys ! Very professional you won’t be disappointed .A pleasure to do business with .Loyal to their customers , they go above and beyond for you!
Phil and his crew were wonderful to work with. They definitely went above and beyond to help us with our not-so-typical vision when it came to our total house rebuild. He truly cared about making us happy and he went out of his way to do so. We’d use them again in a heartbeat.
