# Rimini Home Improvement

**Trade:** Bathroom Remodel · **Address:** 508 Washington St, Quincy, MA 02169, USA · **Phone:** (617) 320-9486 · **Website:** https://www.riminihomeimprovement.com/ · **Languages:** English

**Rating: 4.3/5** (medium confidence) — from 14 reviews across 4 sources. A 0–5 star rating built from what customers and the public say (every review and mention weighted by where it was posted, how old, how detailed and how credible it is, shrunk toward a 3.5★ baseline when evidence is thin) plus what the record shows (Reddit recommendations or warnings, a registry-verified licence, how recently they were reviewed, customer work photos, BBB grade, negative news, a revoked licence). Positive record counts only as far as the reviews have earned it; penalties count in full. Confidence describes how much weighted evidence stands behind the number, never the number itself: low when fewer than about five normal reviews' worth of weight (or mentions only) support it, medium up to about twenty, high beyond that across at least two sources. An operator flag for a suspicious review pattern caps a rating at 3.5★ and marks it low.
93% of sentiment-scored reviews read net-positive. Last 6 months: 2 reviews, 0 negative.

## The honest read

Rimini Home Improvement is a Quincy-based, one-man operation — the website is explicit about it: "you're not hiring a logo, you're hiring the guy homeowners keep calling back." That guy is Giovanni (rendered a few different ways across reviews — Givanni, Gjovalin), who says he's been at this 16 years and covers kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, painting, and 24/7 emergency plumbing across Quincy, Cambridge, Newton, and much of Greater Boston. Google shows a 4.8 average from 17 ratings.

The through-line across the written record, running 2022 to mid-2026, is that Giovanni does the work himself rather than subcontracting it out — "from demolition, to plumbing to tiling to electrical," as one reviewer put it — and that shows up as speed without a drop in quality: an 8-day guest-bath remodel in a 2024 review, a two-bathroom renovation and repaint finished in just over two weeks against a month-long estimate in a 2025 review. One customer's early-2026 review described this as their third bathroom project with him; another's late-2025 review listed a kitchen redo, updated bathrooms, all-new windows, and a chimney rebuilt from the ground up as work he'd done for them over time. On the plumbing side, one reviewer credited him with same-day emergency response more than once, and another described a water heater installation where he laid out multiple options before the work even started.

There's also a one-star review from May 2026 that doesn't describe any work at all — a caller says the business told them it makes pizza — which reads as a wrong-number or mismatched-listing mix-up rather than an account of Rimini's actual work.

For a one-person shop, the range on display is wide — full room remodels, emergency plumbing, windows, a chimney rebuild — which is either a strength or something to ask about directly, since one person can only be in one place at a time. Rimini Home Improvement looks like a solid call for a homeowner who wants a single point of contact through a bathroom or kitchen project, or a plumbing emergency, and is willing to work around one contractor's schedule rather than a crew's.

**Strengths:**
- One-man, all-trades crew — no subcontractors, one point of contact
- Same-day emergency plumbing response
- Repeat customers — one on a third project with him
- Fast turnarounds — full bathrooms finished in days, not weeks
