RJT Carpentry & Tile is a Boston remodeling business. A 2015 Houzz customer said Ryaan installed a penny tile backsplash that required a good number of meticulous cuts in the small tile, and that customer said his prices were competitive and he did not add any new incidentals to the quote. The company says Ryaan Tuttle founded it in 2005 and runs it, and describes its work as residential remodeling, including kitchens, bathrooms, additions and renovations. Houzz lists the numbers 97387 and 154723 for the company, and its website cites 190836 and 97387. Its BBB grade is A+. A 2016 Houzz customer said Ryaan and Tom did a complete basement renovation at their home in Nahant, and that Ryaan adjusted his schedule when the customer pushed the project out a month at the last minute. A 2015 customer who hired RJT for an addition said Ryaan and his crew kept to the timeline and the budget of the project. A 2015 customer said RJT took on an extensive renovation problem, a carpenter ant infestation that eventually involved two roofs that supported two decks, one of which required a complete rebuild. A 2015 reviewer said their self-managed condo building of four units hired RJT to address issues stemming from a roof leak, and that the work was completed in a timely manner and within budget. A 2015 customer said Ryaan installed a chair rail and some wainscoting in the hallway of their previous home, then tasked him with building a new half bath and two new closets in their new home. A 2015 customer said Ryann rebuilt their porch and repaired their gutters. A 2015 customer said Ryaan installed a new front door and frame for their apartment. A 2016 customer said Ryaan and RJT did exactly what they said they were going to do, at the exact price and exact time.
RJT Carpentry & tile are true professionals in every sense of the word. As an Interior Designer in the Boston area, I've had the pleasure of collaborating with Ryaan and his team on several projects. They do a great job with customer service, attention to detail, strong communication skills, knowledgeable of building codes and scheduling. What I appreciate the most is the attention to craftsmanship, the honesty, integrity and positive attitude Ryaan and his team bring to each project.
Not only is Ryaan a master craftsman, but he also has the patience of Buddhist monk and the professionalism of a career diplomat! As someone who manages real estate for a living I've had more than my fair share of "bad" contractor experiences, so when it came time to renovate my home I was nervous. However, choosing Ryaan/RJT was one of the best decisions I have made in a long time. From the project's start to finish I feel I was in constant communication with Ryaan: he would check-in, follow-up, offer suggestions/etc, actions you would expect from your contractor but unfortunately rarely receive. While my project was not without its challenges, what renovation isn't, the way Ryaan seamlessly navigated those challenges was nothing short of perfection, and the work speaks for itself (it's beautiful). My only regret is that I did not start this renovation sooner with Ryaan/RJT, do not hesitate in using them, they simply are the best!
Wow! That sums up my experience with RJT. Ryaan and Tom did a complete basement renovation at my home in Nahant. I can tell you exactly what stood out about working with these guys. They are flexible - I pushed the project out a month at the last minute and Ryaan adjusted his schedule accordingly. Communication - Ryann responded to my calls and texts in a very timely manner throughout the project. He never left me hanging and always let me know what to expect every day along the way. Design Partnership - I had a lot of very custom design details that I wanted to incorporate. Ryaan would help me research them and present pros and cons as far as how they would affect timing, cost and functionality. Last, but not least, they are just all around good people who are committed to their clients happiness and satisfaction. Do not hesitate to hire these guys - they are the real deal and will deliver for you.

This is a very easy review - Ryaan & RJT did EXACTLY what they said they were going to do, at the exact price and exact time plus the quality of work is fantastic. That combination is so rare in the construction business today. I would recommend RJT for any job large or small.
