TESTIMONIALS
"Throughout our project we were in constant communication and we were given updates and information each step of the way. During the construction, the site was left clean and safe at the end of the day and each member of the team respected that this was our home. We are thrilled with the results and the completed project has exceeded our expectations!"
Chrissy and John Chisholm, Hingham
"We highly recommend Michael Handrahan Remodeling (MHR) for your building and construction needs. We are in the final stages of a year-long whole house renovation and addition with Michael Handrahan Remodeling as the general contractor. As we look back to the beginning of our project, three things clearly stand out:
Communication - Communication with Mike and his team (both office staff and in-the-field construction professionals) was excellent throughout the project. Mike was available promptly by phone or in person for whatever we needed to discuss. He patiently answered our many questions and explained fully, and in understandable terms, the pros and cons of each issue. Mike kept us abreast of what was coming next, what decisions we needed to make, and by when.
Quality Craftsmanship - The level of workmanship is excellent! No shortcuts were taken with respect to using quality materials, techniques, and craftsmanship. MHR�s carpenters are creative and extremely talented professionals who helped us turn our dreams into reality.
Resources - Mike called on the very best from the various building trades (e.g., framing, plumbing, electrical, etc.) to complete our project. The sub-contractors know that the bar is high when working under MHR's direction and were up to the challenge of delivering the very best. Mike also has well-developed relationships with the suppliers of building materials and finish products.
We can truly say that we enjoyed the whole process. We don't know that we've heard many others say the same about their experience with house renovation and additions."
Sheila Collins and David Vargo, Hingham
"Our relationship with Mike Handrahan began 15 years ago when we put an addition onto our home in an historic district of Hingham. Our architect and we put the job out for bid and chose Mike on the basis of his reputation and our personal impressions. We made an excellent choice! Mike's work exceeded our greatest expectations. He hires the finest, highly skilled, polite and decent people. Mike is fair and honest. He is easily accessible and stands by his work. He does what he says he will do. When we decided to do two additional, extensive renovations, we did not even put our jobs out for bid, but rather asked Mike when he was available. We would not think of having anyone else do work for us. Mike is the best."
Lee and Judy Forker, Hingham
"Michael Handrahan Remodeling has finished three major projects for us as well as several smaller ones. Every project was started and completed in a timely manner; his workers arrived on time and were all extremely respectful. We don't even consider getting other bids when we have building projects that require a contractor, whether it be a major renovation or something smaller. We know Mike will do quality work, will be here on time, will always be available and we will have a gorgeous finished product. We can't recommend him highly enough!"
John and Penny Frabotta, Hingham
"We have used Mike Handrahan several times since 2000. He has completed a major renovation and addition, complete kitchen, all trim and ceilings on the first floor, replacement of 6 skylights and new roof, 2 new bathrooms and a new heating system. For all of these projects his estimates were fair, accurate, honest and free. Each job was given a reasonable time for starting the project, and realistic completion date. Mike was available daily, and his crew was on time every day. They are courteous and qualified craftsman. Coordination of the tradesman is exceptional, with seeming military precision. There is daily cleanup, and at the end of the project, the cleanup is perfect. Mike remains available for any problems or questions during or after the job are completed. Mike is a pleasure to work with, and comes highly recommended."

Charley and Lynn Hayes, Hingham
"Hiring Mike Handrahan was the best thing my husband I did when we wanted to renovate our kitchen and downstairs! Mike and his crew of talented craftsmen brought our plan to life, helping us to make smart decisions and alterations along the way. Mike was timely and thoughtful about his approach to our job. His guys were respectful. His work site was always clean at the end of the day. Mike showed up every day until the project was complete. He coordinated his subcontractors effectively. He was always available to answer questions. He waas true to his estimate and change orders were well documented. I really can't say enough about working with Mike and his entire crew. I love the space they created for our family."
Karen Johnson and Jim Broderick
"Recently my company expanded into a new commercial building in need of extensive renovations. Michael Handrahan Remodeling made the transition for us one of the best service experiences I have ever had. From start to finish their experience and professionalism was readily evident. For future projects I would not consider any other company in their field. For me, Michael Handrahan Remodeling is the 'gold standard' when it comes to construction and renovations."
Bill LaRossa, President, WL Trading LLC
"It's nice to have the opportunity to say publicly how great Mike Handrahan has been. He has worked with us on many projects, large and small, for many years, and we would recommend him without reservation. When other builders might say that something will be difficult and expensive to accomplish, he invariably will say, "oh, that's no problem, that's easy enough to do." He can immediately size up a problem or request and easily figure out the best way to do it. He's just extremely capable. Mike has lived in Hingham all his life and is known and respected by all the tradesmen in the area and he can pull together the best team for a project. He's always responsive and returns calls surprisingly fast, even when he's very busy and he has a great deal of integrity. He's a "builder's builder" and we wouldn't think of working with anyone else.
Joe and Gail Lenehan, Hingham
"Michael Handrahan Remodeling, Inc. has done work for our family for over 20 years; from small renovations to 5000 square foot additions. The attention to detail and the workmanship is outstanding. The coordination of subcontractors is a top priority and the schedule for the construction is realistic. Mike returns your calls, answers your questions, makes suggestions and builds to satisfy your vision of the end result. We could not recommend him more highly no matter what the project involves."
Jeff and Gerry Lynch, Hingham

The quality of the workmanship and the products used, the responsiveness of the office staff and our great happiness with the projects have all made our experiences with Michael Handrahan Remodeling, Inc. exceptionally positive. We highly recommend Mike for any remodeling project and would be happy to speak with anyone as a reference."
Ann Marie and Jack Manning, Hingham
"Hingham residents are fortunate to have Mike Handrahan and his crew to work on their homes. Mike is the nicest and most professional contractor you could ever ask to come into your home. His crew comes prepared for whatever job is ahead of them and they work hard and smart and complete their jobs in a timely manner. It is a pleasure doing business with Michael Handrahan."

"My experiences with Michael Handrahan Remodeling have always been nothing less than outstanding. I know that when Mike is doing a job, it will be done on time, on budget and done right. He is truly a great contractor and that is a rare find."
Barbara Schmitt, Hingham
"After remodeling a kitchen, a bath, building an addition on our first home and building our current home, we have had quite a spectrum of experiences with different contractors in the building and renovation department. So, when we decided to do some remodeling and add a sunroom to our home we called Michael Handrahan Remodeling because of his outstanding reputation. Well, we were not disappointed with our decision. Every project has come out beautifully. He always returns calls and stands behind his work. The construction crew and sub-contractors are professional, highly qualified craftsmen. Their work is of the highest quality. We can honestly say that every experience has been a pleasure and that we would never consider working with anyone other than Michael for any future projects."
Kevin and Joanne Smith, Hingham
"When my husband and I decided to renovate our house we met with at least five general contractors. They were all very personable and seemed like they would be fine to work with. Our project was quite extensive and we were planning on living in the house throughout the renovation. After about six months of deliberating over who to use for our project, we chose Michael Handrahan and his crew because of the comfortable feeling we got when going over plans, etc. Also, his reputation was impeccable. All of the workers on our job seemed as honest and hardworking as Mike. The renovating time lasted seven months and was definitely challenging at times, but each day the house was cleaned up and from the framer to the electricians and plumbers, the craftsmanship and final results were wonderful. We will definitely use Michael Handrahan on any future house projects."
Kelly and Mark Truchan, Hingham
"We have been customers of Michael Handrahan Remodeling since 1993. We are satisfied customers and have enjoyed our relationship with Mike. In 1993 Mike contracted with us for a major renovation of a 30 year old home which involved gutting the house completely and removing the front wall. The renovation was on time and on budget. It lasted for about 6 months and we were comfortable with the level of consulation throughout the process as well as the finished product. Shortly after project completion, The Boston Globe, in its Sunday Magazine supplement, featured pictures and text of our house in an article on home renovation. Since that time we have repeatedly called on Michael Handrahan Remodeling for addtional projects because their estimates are competitive, their workmanship is excellent and they keep to their estimates. We would recommend Mike Handrahan for any home construction or remodeling project."
