Ask around Norwood for a general contractor and one name keeps coming up: Naim Boutros. S & A General Contracting is his outfit, owner-operated out of Norwood, MA, taking on renovations, additions and carpentry work across Norwood, Westwood, Wellesley, Newton, Boston, Sharon, Easton, Dedham, Foxborough, Canton, Medfield and Dover. The company's own site says it was founded in 2018 and is named after Boutros's two daughters, though directory profiles list longer tenures for the business, so treat any specific years-in-business figure as a claim rather than a settled fact.
The reviews read like word of mouth from people who actually had him in their house. A 2026 Google review calls him "the loveliest, most patient, knowledgeable, honest and hard working person we've come across," with connections to solid subcontractors around the South Shore. Another from May 2026 describes window repair and general construction work as excellent, on time and neat. A March 2025 review describes a full renovation of a dated 1960s home brought "to 2025 life," finished on time, on budget and to spec. The pattern holds further back too: a 2025 Angi review credits the crew with an outstanding porch build, and in 2019 Angi reviews, customers described finished basements, decks and kitchens done with meticulous attention to detail and, in one case, two weeks ahead of schedule. Across 18 reviews spanning 2019 to 2026 on eight different platforms — Google, Angi, HomeAdvisor, Thumbtack and BuildZoom among them — none is negative.
The Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, #191903, is verified active with the state registry, and BuildZoom independently lists the same number as active with a BuildZoom score of 92. There's no complaint, dispute or regulatory action anywhere in the record to weigh against that.
This reads like a fit for someone planning a real renovation — a kitchen, bathroom, basement or addition — who wants the same person, Boutros himself, involved from the estimate through the final walkthrough rather than a rotating crew. Worth a direct question, though: how long the company has actually been operating under its current name, since the website and its directory listings don't agree on the number of years.
