Expert General Contractor in Allston, Massachusetts
We have worked on enough Allston exteriors to know what tends to be waiting behind the old material. The stock dates from 18th-19th century urban core, so 80-150+-year-old assemblies are the norm rather than the exception. What makes it harder here is older masonry and wood assemblies sitting side by side on the same block.

We have been working across Suffolk County since 2015, and the pattern is consistent: the jobs that come back are the ones where somebody rushed the parts nobody sees. Crumbling brick pointing needing exterior updates is common enough in Allston that we price for it rather than acting surprised. We do not subcontract. That is the whole reason we can hold a start date and the reason the standard does not drop between the first elevation and the last.
Comprehensive General Contractor Services in Allston, MA
What we actually do differently on exterior contracting comes down to a handful of things: an agreed rate for hidden damage written into the contract before we start; permits filed and inspections scheduled by us, in the right order against the material lead times; a single point of contact from the first walkthrough to the final inspection. Materials are rated for the New England climate zone, and we account for noise and traffic that make sealed, well-fitted openings worth more than they are elsewhere. Every one of those is in the manufacturer's own installation guide. Following it is most of the job.

General Contractor FAQs — Allston, MA
Common questions from Allston homeowners about general contractor
What does exterior contracting cost in Allston?
Our Allston projects generally land at $18,000–$60,000 for a combined exterior package. The spread comes down to size, material and what we find once the old work comes off — which is why our written quote includes an agreed rate for hidden damage rather than a guess. Estimates are free and we do not price on the doorstep.
Are you actually local to Allston?
We work out of Charlton, 20 miles away — roughly half an hour. That matters mostly for the unglamorous parts: getting back out for a warranty call, or being on site when the inspector is.
What usually goes wrong with exterior work on homes in Allston?
The three we see most often here: a rebuild that stalls because nobody sequenced the permit against the material lead time; exterior scope that grows once the walls are open, with no agreed rate for the extra; and a schedule where the siding crew arrives before the windows do. Locally, crumbling brick pointing needing exterior updates comes up repeatedly on brownstone row houses.
What happens if you find rot once you have started?
We stop, photograph it and show you before covering anything back up. The repair rate is agreed in the contract before we start, so there is no renegotiation with your wall open.
Do you pull the permits, or do I?
That is on us. We pull the permit from Allston, sequence the inspections around the work, and attend them. A contractor who asks you to pull your own permit is telling you something.
How do you handle the site during the job?
Beds and walkways are covered before anything comes off the wall, there is a container on site from day one, and we magnet-sweep every evening. It matters more than people expect on a tight Allston lot.
