The thing that recurs across ten years of reviews is that people hire Britton Homes again. A customer writing in August 2025 had worked with Dave, Ryan, Jim and Patrick multiple times over a decade across three projects, the last the largest and most challenging. Another in April 2025 had been going back for more than ten years, most recently for a basement, a deck and a screened porch. A 2019 client was on their second Britton team; a 2018 one did a bathroom and an outdoor deck, then booked a kitchen. The company works out of Ashland, and its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration is active. The BBB has accredited it at A+ since 2012, and the platforms agree: 4.9 from 74 ratings on Angi, 5.0 from 30 on Houzz, 5 from 15 on Google, with 34 written accounts running from 2016 to February 2026. The work people describe is substantial. A June 2024 kitchen was a full gut with a load-bearing wall taken out to open the first floor. A March 2024 renovation changed floorplans across several rooms with new plumbing and electrical, while the family lived in another part of the house. A 2022 client listed three jobs in a row: a bedroom converted into a master bathroom, hardwood floors refinished, the whole house repainted. A 2017 garage project ran from digging and foundation through framing, roofing, finishing, painting and paving the driveway. Manners in an occupied house come up repeatedly. A January 2025 reviewer said the crew started on time, respected that the family was still living there, resolved issues quickly, and made a point of saying good morning. A March 2025 client singled out communication on estimates, timelines and change orders. In October 2025 someone put it in four words: estimates were pretty accurate. One story is worth repeating. In a September 2023 post, a homeowner said Britton was one of ten contractors he called after the first two never showed up for the estimate. Britton called back, said they could do the work — then told him someone else could do it cheaper and gave him the name. Price is the standing caveat, and the company raises it first. The most recent reviewer, in February 2026, called them a little pricey and noted that Dave had said as much at the first meeting. A 2017 client put it plainly: having a project manager was certainly more expensive, but he did not have to deal with the logistics himself. The right call for a big, complicated remodel where you want the same crew back for the next one. Not the call if you are shopping the lowest bid.
“It was a pleasure working with Dave, Ryan and crew from Britton Homes. Dave had told me during our first meeting that they would be prompt with responding and he was true to his word. Often times he or Ryan would respond within the hour. They are a little higher as far as price, but you get what you pay for! The quality of work was exceptional.”

Excellent communication throughout the process. Very responsive to questions and concerns. Estimates were pretty accurate.
We are SO happy we ended up working with Britton Homes. We absolutely recommend using them for your home renovation projects. We were very impressed with all aspects of the work, but here are a few highlights. We used them for a full kitchen / dining room remodel, with a mudroom add-on. Besides what you would expect from a kitchen remodel, the work also included enclosing our breezeway and adding new footings to expand the footprint of the house. Length of project: about 4.5 months (final timing was only like a week behind the original schedule, which if you ask us was a month ahead of our expectations). Professionalism / Customer service: The folks at Britton are fantastic and they seem to have found the best folks in the field. Every person we met (from the day-to-day project manager, to the lead builder on site every day, to every subcontractor brought in (plumbing, electrical, etc) were all just great folks. Good people doing a good job. They were attentive to every single question, comment, and update we threw at them. Cost: In the initial conversations, Britton indicated that the way they do business was to do a very thorough scoping of the project and then the “estimate” provided is the number you pay, unless you change the scope. This was a huge selling point for us after hearing so many horror stories about contractors. As we went through the work, they would reach out with things that we should consider and how much additional it would cost. We said yes to some ideas, no to others. The final bill came and it was the exact amount agreed upon plus the amounts agreed to as we went. While not the lowest cost bid we received, having the certainty of the cost was great. Quality: We are very happy with the result. We’ve been living in our updated house for a couple months now and we haven’t had any issues. Everything is of excellent quality and looking like a million bucks. We are so proud to show off our new kitchen area to everyone we know. In summary, we give Britton 10 out of 10 stars. Attached are some after pics (and a couple before pics too just to give some idea of the complete overhaul our house was given!) to show off our amazing new space!
