On a recent job, Gavin and his partner arrived on time, worked hard to get the work done in one day, and even fixed a shelf the customer had broken. The Renovate Master is a handyman outfit that works through Thumbtack, where it holds 4.7 stars from 28 ratings and describes itself as a team of seven. The work runs to the small, precise jobs. In a 2025 review, a customer said Gavin mounted three televisions and sound bars and gave advice on placement and the mounts to use. In a 2024 review, a customer described Gavin and Steven installing a stock wood and glass door for a bedroom, a job the customer called labor intensive and requiring precision; Gavin had answered the inquiry within minutes. A 2024 review covers kitchen trim around an under-counter beverage fridge. In another 2024 review, a customer said Gavin showed up when promised, did the project at the agreed price, cleaned up and demonstrated how the assembled piece worked. Thumbtack lists it as a 2024 Top Pro and as background checked.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from The Renovate Master. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
A day rate replaces the task list — usually the better deal once the list gets long.

cannot say enough about Gavin and his partner. they arrived on time worked hard to get the work done in one day! even fixed a shelf I broke just being nice! highly recommend 👌
Great job and price. Superb quality, thoroughness and attention to detail.
We are so happy to have met Gavin! He is super patient and knowledgeable - he mounted three televisions and sound bars, providing excellent feedback on placement and the best mounts to use. He was punctual, kind and awesome to work with!!
They were able to deal with unexpected issues I really appreciated that
Having never used this platform, I had no idea what to expect. Gavin responded to my inquiry within minutes. I knew he was the choice for me. Gavin and Steven came within a few days of that message and communicated with me the entire time. The craftsmanship, attention to detail right down to their clean-up process was incredible. Gavin has a moral compass that is rarely seen in this line of work. Steven and Gavin are without a provided the most positive experience. I've had hiring someone for a job like this. I will be contacting them again if I ever need work done with my house. They are the only choice for me. Job: they installed a stock wood and glass door for my bedroom. It was labor intensive and required precision.
