Richard's Remodeling & Repairs

Richards Remodeling and Repairs is a small handyman and remodeling outfit working out of Middleton, MA, reachable on the 508 number it lists publicly and through its own site at richardsremodelingrepair.com. In its own words the business has over 28 years of handyman and remodeling experience and is licensed and fully insured — the company's claim, made without a licence number attached, so it is worth asking to see the registration itself. The work it puts its name to spans more than quick fixes. Its Houzz profile lists general contracting projects, kitchens and bathrooms, custom cabinets, interior and exterior sign installs, and painting, with one project shown on the profile. That mix — cabinetry and full rooms alongside repairs — is a wider brief than a pure handyman, and it is the business's own description of what it takes on rather than something customers have described. What homeowners have said about it is positive but sparse and old. A customer writing in November 2015 said they found Richard through another review site, hired him for a couple of odd jobs and small repairs around the house, and called the work superb and really craftsman-like, adding that he seemed knowledgeable and had a skilled staff. That account is a decade old now, and it is the only written one on file; Google's own star average rests on a single rating. So the picture is a well-regarded small-repair job from 2015 and very little since. Anyone hiring for a kitchen, bath or cabinetry job — the bigger end of what the company advertises — would be going beyond what any customer account here covers, and the 2015 reviewer said as much themselves about larger work. Ask for recent references on a job the size of yours, and confirm the licence and insurance directly with the state before signing.
