The Home Builders Massachusetts Loves

Norman Builders was our top choice among three contractors we interviewed (including our past preferred general contractor) for a new 12′ X 32′ deck and screen room.

We had a basic design in mind, which Ryan and Dale improved upon and fine-tuned for us. They advised us on materials as well, and we really feel that allowed for the most bang for our buck. Our calls were always promptly returned which made for much less frustration, especially when we had questions.

We were extremely impressed with the quality of the workmanship and their attention to detail. The work area was always neatly kept. They were flexible and adaptable when we had additional unplanned work that needed to be completed before they could proceed with the scheduled project.

We highly recommend Norman Builders and would most certainly contract with them for future projects.

The project went beautifully. We cannot say enough good things about Ryan, his guys and his subcontractors. Ryan is like no other contractor we’ve ever worked with and we’ve worked with a lot… most of them mediocre at best. He’s a great guy, trustworthy and easy to work with. Ryan was on top of things throughout the entire project and responds to texts and phone calls within minutes. His guys showed up every morning, on time and were quiet and respectful of our space. We couldn’t be happier with their work (especially Lance’s tile work). His subcontractors were punctual and all did fantastic quality work. We would hire Ryan again in a second and would highly recommend him to anyone.

Ryan and his team were exceptional. Their professionalism and quality of work were above and beyond our expectations (we are very fussy). We spent over a year interviewing other contractors and designers. When Ryan arrived to give us a quote and offer recommendations, we knew his company was the one for us. It was a major project involving removing tile floors on most of the first floor and replacing them with hardwood, replacing all cabinets, center island and all appliances, installing granite counter tops, replacing 6 doors, extensive electrical work, new lighting, painting and staining most of the walls and woodwork on the first floor and some on the second floor, etc. We got constant feedback, recommendations and guidance from Ryan Norman (owner) and his crew. There were many things that we did not know how to handle but they gave us great recommendations. Also, they were very fussy about the materials. We saw them reject many items from their suppliers and request replacements as the original items were not perfect. Norman Builders are the dream team and we strongly recommend them.

When the town building inspector voluntarily starts to praise the quality of the work you know that it is good. Ryan Norman was polite, honest and professional.  It was evident that both his crew and the subcontractors enjoyed working with the company. Renovation of a 67 year old house is never without glitches, but problems were solved with clear explanations of what needed to be done. It is not easy to have people working in your house from April to September, but we were kept informed as to what was happening when, the crews were generally on time, and everyone was nice and appropriate around a child.

I could not be happier with the completed project. Ryan’s father, Dale, did most of the work including the demolition, the structural support beam, and the cabinet installation. He was meticulous, thoughtful, and incredibly skilled. The kitchen designer, Pam, came up with a thoughtful design that really took my family and our way of using the space into account. She sometimes took a while to get back to me with questions, but overall she did a great job. The electrician, plumbers, tile installers, painters, and countertop installers were all competent, courteous, and professional. I am very happy. The project took 8 weeks to complete which was within the estimated timeframe and stayed on budget.
