Precision Finish Boston

Precision Finish Boston is a Newton-based custom-building and remodeling company founded in 2005 by John O'Neill; the company says it has spent the years since doing new home construction, additions, whole-home remodels, and historic restoration work around Weston, Newton, Cambridge and Brookline. The written record is thin and dated — both reviews on file are from 2013 and 2014. In the more detailed of the two, from 2014, a homeowner described a complete kitchen and dining room remodel (new flooring, cabinets with a center island, granite counters, a tile backsplash, and wainscoting in the dining room), praising John and his crew for finishing on budget and exactly on the promised date, and for walking them through the trade-offs on every decision along the way. One thing worth confirming directly: the state registry lists the company's Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration as expired. For a homeowner planning a kitchen remodel or a larger renovation, the one detailed account here is a strong one — but with nothing on file more recent than 2014, it's worth asking for current references and confirming the license status before signing anything.
