Miller Custom Craftsmen is a Roslindale-based finish-carpentry and custom-cabinetry shop run by Christopher Miller, serving Greater Boston including Winthrop. The two written accounts on file, both from Houzz, are from 2017 and 2018 and describe substantial remodel work: a 2018 review recounts converting a tight 6x9 mudroom/laundry room in an 1891 cottage into a space that could also fit a half bath, praising the crew's workmanship, on-time finish and ability to improvise, plus handling an unrelated dishwasher flood mid-job without missing a beat. A 2017 review describes a full kitchen redo — leveling the floor, hanging custom cabinets, fixing weather-damaged siding the crew discovered along the way — and specifically calls out daily cleanup and plastic dust barriers over doorways. The shop's service list runs deep into finish carpentry: custom built-ins, cabinets, home bars, bookcases, fireplace mantels, crown molding and trim work, among others. Credentials on file include EPA Lead Safe, OSHA 10 and CPR certifications, plus a Massachusetts CSL and HIC listed on Houzz — though Houzz's listed HIC number (106369) doesn't match the separate HIC number (169233) BuildZoom shows as active; worth confirming which is current directly with the state before signing anything. With just two written reviews, both from 2017-2018, there isn't a large or recent sample to draw on — but the detail in what's there points to careful, communicative work on tight or complicated remodels.

I hired Chris and his team to redo my mudroom/laundry room in order to add a half bath in the small space. Chris, his team, and his subs were all wonderful to work with, and I've had them back to do other things. The workmanship by everyone is excellent, communication is professional and responsive, and they finished on time, if not a little early. It was a tough space to work in -- a 6x9 room in a 1891 cottage -- and they had to be creative to fit everything in. They even handled an unexpected and unrelated dishwasher flood while here without missing a beat. I've recommended Miller Custom Craftsmen to friends, neighbors, and my clients. I can't wait to work with them again!
I hired MCC to redo my kitchen. In short - they did a fantastic job and we absolutely LOVE our new kitchen! MCC did everything from leveling the floor to putting our decorative knobs on the new cabinets. Chris even discovered some weather damage to our siding which he fixed (and did correctly, as the previous owners took some shortcuts). What stood out the most to me was that he and his team took the time to put up plastic barriers over the doorways to contain the dust and keep it from going into the rest of the house. They also cleaned up after themselves every day. Every. Day. Not only professional, but just a good guy, personable and easy to work with. He and his wife managed all the vendors (scheduling of plumber and electrician) and ensured everything was up to code and properly inspected. My husband and I cannot recommend them enough and will definitely be using them for future projects.
