Simba General Contractors

The job Simba General Contractors keeps getting called for is the big one — a full bathroom or kitchen remodel, an addition, a wall coming out. The family-owned crew works out of Jamaica Plain in Boston, by its own description, and forty-eight Google ratings back it with a 4.8-star average across 42 reviews dating to 2021. The last six months show what that looks like in practice. One family turned an unfinished Roslindale basement into a finished living space; another had Simba open an upstairs landing into an office and gym; a third had an interior wall taken out to connect a living room and office. After a flood, the crew came in to paint, drywall, and lay new flooring for the cleanup. A vent hood installed by a technician named Dimitri, coordinated by someone named Christine, drew its own praise, and one client says they've kept calling Simba back for repairs on their Jamaica Plain condo for years running. The name that comes up most in this stretch is Bilal, credited for keeping the crews communicative and on schedule. That run isn't spotless. A review from March 2026 describes equipment Simba supplied for a job that turned out wrong or chipped, causing a leak severe enough to displace residents from apartments on all four floors of a building — the reviewer says they're pursuing a complaint with the Better Business Bureau. It's the one account here of the work actually going wrong, and it sits right in the middle of an otherwise five-star run, which makes it worth raising directly rather than assuming it's an outlier. Further back, the reviews describe the same kind of work — kitchen and bathroom remodels, roofing, plumbing, carpentry, window replacement — stretching to 2021, with the praise landing on the same things: crews who show up, communicate, and finish clean. Simba reads like the right call for a real renovation rather than a same-day repair; before booking, it's worth asking about the sourcing behind that one equipment complaint and getting specifics on warranty terms for materials.
