A 2026 review says Jay and his crew at Mass Improvement LLC "have completed a project to renovate my Laundry room, a gut and remodel of our downstairs living space, demolition of our back stairs and building a new deck, framing and building a full bathroom in our basement level, building a new 24x36 garage with a 10x20 lean too" over the past 5 months. In a separate 2026 review, a customer praises the job of modifying the soffits on their gable dormers, writing that Jay provided a clear understanding of the work scope upfront and that the crew worked efficiently, which led to a shorter time frame than expected. In an earlier 2026 review, a customer wrote that the company repaired rotten sections of the post and beam frame of their barn and that the guys replaced a good number of clapboards and corner trim boards and sealed it all up neatly. A 2026 review described a 15x20 deck project that stayed on budget and was completed on time, with the team keeping the job site clean every day. In another 2026 review, a customer wrote that Jay's team created built-ins around and above the fireplace as part of a home office remodel. In a 2025 review, a customer wrote that the crew was on time, that everything was measured to perfection, and that Mass Improvement secured all the permits and was there when the different inspectors came. In a 2025 review, a customer wrote that Jay installed a storm door and gave them the information and diagrams they needed for their HOA. In a 2022 review, a customer wrote that they had used Jay twice for hanging mirrors, installing towel bars and other bathroom items, assembling furniture and installing wall sconces, and that, based on the amount and quality of work, they felt his price was reasonable.
I've used Mass Improvement for several projects and highly recommend them. Before and after of most recent project
Excellent job of modifying the soffits on my gable dormers. Mass Improvement was recommended to me and I was glad they were. Jay was very attentive and responsive to my questions during the initial project review and provided a clear understanding of the work scope upfront. The crew worked efficiently which led to a shorter time frame than I expected.
In the past 5 months, Jay and his crew at Mass Improvement LLC ., Chuck, Nick, Dennis and Joe, Shawn, Kevin, Larry, Daryl and Daryl have completed a project to renovate my Laundry room, a gut and remodel of our downstairs living space, demolition of our back stairs and building a new deck, framing and building a full bathroom in our basement level, building a new 24x36 garage with a 10x20 lean too. Throughout all the craziness that ensued Jay was the Beacon that directed everyone home. He has a calming effect on his crew in stressful situations and he has a way of seeing your vision and making it happen. Our entire set of projects we were under the gun as far as time was concerned. We had a small job site which makes it harder for all the trades to move freely as they want to. Jay always tried to accommodate other trades while moving his along at the same time. The fluent team of Joe and Dennis working together to deliver my garage was amazing to watch. The two of them worked as if they had known each other their entire lives. This garage has been my dream for years and Jay Gerard at Mass Improvements is my "Dream Maker!!!"
At least twice a year we have had wonderful help from Mass Improvements - moving seasonal furniture, changing batteries in tubes at 2nd floor level (great room) - even making and installing great looking shelves for us (above our laundry room sink for instance, and in the garage.) Easy to get an appointment set up and nice people who show up.
Mass Improvement did two jobs for us. They were reliable and communicative. Their work was excellent and they completed the project one time. They also left the area very clean after both projects.
