Remodeling Boston is Peter Duffy's Arlington-based general contracting outfit — the company says he's been renovating homes around Boston since founding it in 1984, and the reviews back that up with a lot of repeat business: several reviewers describe hiring the crew for a second, third, or even fifth project across multiple properties over the years. Kitchens and bathrooms are the bread and butter. Reviews describe full gut renovations down to the studs, a condo turned into a modern loft with a bathroom, kitchen, closet reconfiguration and full paint job in a September 2025 review, and a steady run of bathroom and kitchen remodels going back to 2023. The crew also takes on additions and specialty builds — a sunroom in Cambridge, an attic finished with a skylight and built-in bookcase, a basement refinish, and window and door replacements. Reviewers repeatedly mention the crew protecting floors, controlling dust, and cleaning up daily. Nothing serious turns up in the record, but one 2024 review of an attic project is worth reading closely: a plaster crack appeared a few months after completion and Peter had it repaired, though the reviewer said communication could have been smoother along the way — worth asking about a punch-list process on a bigger job. With 19 reviews averaging close to 5 stars over three years and a Houzz profile showing seven showcased projects, Remodeling Boston reads as a well-established, owner-run shop for homeowners planning a real renovation rather than a quick patch job.
