Almost every account of this company is really an account of one man. Across 24 written reviews on Angi and HomeAdvisor, customers name Liam Neary himself — on site, running the job, messaging as it moves. Both sites publish the same headline: 4.9 from 154 ratings. Its BBB page is an A+. What people call him for is carpentry and whole-project renovation. In a 2018 review a homeowner described built-in shelving, benches, cubbies and hooks that turned an unused room into storage. A 2020 customer wrote about a single door — picked out, hung, with a photo texted over before it went in. Bathrooms recur: a 2018 job covered upgrades to one bathroom and a tub-to-shower conversion in the master, and in 2021 a household with only one bathroom credited him with holding a timeline they could not afford to miss. In May 2025 a homeowner said he stepped in after a previous contractor ripped out their kitchen and walked away; a month later another described a room gutted to the studs by a water leak and put back together. The steadiest theme is not craft, it is contact. A 2018 customer got a message when he arrived and another when he was done, every day. Another said messages came back the same day, with a call if he would be more than five minutes late. A 2017 review clocked a 7am start and a 1:30pm finish with the site cleaned up; a 2021 one described the crew arriving each morning and clearing up each afternoon. Two things to weigh before calling. The written record runs 2017 to 2025 and thins badly at the recent end — 17 of the 24 accounts predate the last five years, so the volume is real but most of the detail is old. And read the dissent: a 2017 customer reported several areas poorly finished or incomplete, items installed incorrectly or without approval, pushback on homeowner requests, and bathroom drywall growing fungus. That is one complaint in a long, positive history — but it is specific, and it lands on finish quality and follow-through. Neary Construction suits a homeowner who wants the owner holding the tools on a defined carpentry or renovation job. Before booking, get the scope and punch list in writing, and confirm current registration and insurance.
Highly recommended!! Liam did a wonderful job with my closer repair. The room was gutted to the studs from a water leak and Liam put it back together beautifully. I’m very happy with his craftsmanship and excellent work. He was courteous, professional, and very skilled. I’d highly recommend his services!
Liam Neary is a total pro. He came in after a previous contractor had ripped out my kitchen and left me in the lurch, and from day one, he turned the whole experience around. I interviewed a lot of contractors, but Liam stood out immediately—he was the kindest, most honest, and most fair of the bunch. He installed my kitchen cabinets and absolutely nailed it. Every detail was done with care and precision. His timeline was quick, his prices were fair, and the quality of the work was top-notch. He showed up exactly when he said he would, kept me informed every step of the way, and made sure the job was done right—not just fast. Working with Liam was a breath of fresh air. He’s reliable, communicative, and genuinely cares about his work. I’d hire him again in a heartbeat—and if you’re lucky enough to book him, you’ll see why.
The job was done perfectly with the utmost of professionalism. Scheduling and supervision were timely. All trades worked tirelessly and were top notch professionals. If you want it done correctly and beautifully hire (Liam) Neary Construction.
Three terms you don't hear when speaking about contractors : Honesty, timely and effecient and pride of Workmanship. If you use Liam Neary Construction you will be using these terms and smiling as you tell others about your amazing experience. I had a leak in my roof with water coming in through the chimney. The water came into the utilitiy room creating a mini swimming pool and the hot water tank shut down. Liam came out within an hour of my phone call got my water running showed me how to clean the sensor for the future and reset the hot water tank. He scheduled to come out later that day to replace flashing on the roof to hopefully fix the problem. Unfortunately for me, it was not the full resolution. In the next rainstorm, I got water in the chimney again and reached out to Liam. This time it was a saturday and was thinking I might see him at the start of the work week or need to pay crazy money just to get him to show up. This was not my experience he showed up in 2 hours reviewed what he had done and come up with a new solution. He determined that the chimney needed some additional work and adjusted the price because of the original work that he had done correctly, but did not solve the problem completely. This contractor is the real deal. If you have a problem give him a call today. He will make your life easier and resolve your problems quickly. For the job done right call Liam Neary.
