Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from ROBERT BUITTA. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.

Hired him to renovate my already finished basement after a sewer backup. I couldn't be happier with my newly finished space! Drywall and flooring were replaced, a handcrafted sliding barn door was installed for a prominent closet and several other doors hung to match. Toilet, vanity and light fixture in the bathroom are in perfect working order and the paint job is perfect!!! The entire job was completed within a few weeks (including the cleaning crew) and constant communication was experienced throughout. So grateful this respectful and talented contractor is doing well!
Hired Robert to install 3 new exterior doors on my house. The price quoted was fair and they were there right on time and were extremely meticulous. The doors look great! I would definitely hire Robert and his crew for other work around the house.
Had done a lot of good work for us and had a great eye and touch for style, colors, etc. Back in 2009, he started a basement job then disappeared after taking a materials check. Looking back I saw some red flags, but didn't act until it was too late.
Wish I found this board earlier. He is definitely in some sort of trouble. He never showed up for the job and his Framingham address is false.
Based upon a number of projects throughout the house -- interior and exterior, some very extensive -- I wish to express that Mr. Buitta is truly talented, highly skilled, professional, knowledgeable neat, affable, trustworthy, and sincere. The negative report in a previous comment by a particular individual is utterly off the mark and completely misleading. I am a longtime Newton homeowner and would be way more than happy to recommend Bobby Buitta.
