Top Quality Construction

Vilson — "Vill" to his customers — runs Top Quality Construction out of the Woburn area, and the jobs homeowners describe are the big ones: master suites taken back to the studs, kitchens rebuilt from the floor tile up, a half bath turned into a full one with the plumbing and electrical moved to suit. On Houzz the company carries a 5.0 across 130 ratings, with 31 projects posted in Andover, Peabody, Middleton, Wakefield and Melrose. A September 2023 reviewer walked through an entire master-suite remodel — reframing, a changed plumbing layout, custom tile, hardwood and baseboards — and said the crew stayed friendly and respectful working in the house. A January 2024 customer put it in the terms homeowners actually think in: "I got a 5 star, maybe even 6 star look at a 4 star price." Kitchens come up over and over in the 2023 reviews, several of them arriving through a sister's or a brother's recommendation. Two things temper that. The written history stops in April 2024, so nothing here describes how the company has run in the past two years. And every word of it comes from one platform — a Houzz page now marked "Business Profile Suspended." Two of the displayed reviews are also near-identical in wording, worth knowing when you weigh a perfect score. The same page lists Best of Houzz, Best of Thumbtack, a Thumbtack Gold membership and a Top Rated badge from HomeAdvisor. Those are the credentials the profile claims, not something confirmed against the awarding platforms. For a gut kitchen or bathroom north of Boston this is a reasonable call to make — just start by asking for jobs finished in the last year, addresses you can go and look at, and their Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration number.
