Tom is incredibly hardworking and reliable. We’d hired him several years ago to provide snow removal service and have continued to be very pleased.

In the summer of 2013, he redid our front porch — replacing old, rotting wood on the eaves, sanding and re-staining the porch ceiling, re-securing the porch rails and sanding/repainting everything. His price was spectacular, as was the final result. He went beyond and above for us…This was all done during the week of 90+ degree weather without complaint.

I highly recommend Russell Remodeling & Restoration. Tom is polite, professional, prompt, and courteous. I originally hired him to do some painting in my condo and he did a great job.

Since then I have contacted him to do various other projects on and around my condo and I have been very happy and satisfied with the results. It is great to know that he is around to help whenever I need them.

Tom of Russell Remodeling is one of the most honest contractors I have ever worked with. His crew does a great job and they are courteous, polite, arrive on time and they clean up the mess at the end of the day. He answers all of my questions and explains in detail so I can understand the process. You can trust Tom and his crew. I would highly recommend Tom to my friends and family.

– Diane B., Medford, MA

Tom was incredible. We had a significant project that needed to be completed on a tight timeline and he came through in every way. Communication throughout the process was extremely clear. The project was on time, on budget and remarkably well done. I will definitely be working with Tom in the future.

– John K., Cambridge, MA

Russell Remodeling and Restoration, led by Tom Russell, was a pleasure to work with in regard to timeliness, quality of work, communicating and responsiveness to our requests/concerns and pricing. The HOA of our North Cambridge triple decker is planning to rehire them for our future projects!

– Miria L., Cambridge, MA

Russell Remodeling was by far the best outfit I have ever dealt with. I only wish that when we had the addition on our home built 25 years ago, that I would have known them. Consummate professionals in every way. Never worried about a return call taking longer than an hour or a text if he were predisposed. […] His construction crew was extremely hard working and very friendly. One day they worked in 98° heat and had the attitude and smile of Cool Hand Luke building the road. I recommend Russell Remodeling to anyone who wants their home to make an impression on their guests as well as themselves and their family every day they enjoy living there.
