Fidelity Construction

Fidelity Construction is a Boston-based renovation contractor co-founded by Nhan "Young" Nguyen and Leonardo Leao, working by its own account across Middlesex, Suffolk, and Essex counties. The jobs its customers write about aren't small fixes — a condo reconfigured from two bedrooms and one bath into three bedrooms and two baths, a full bathroom gut, a kitchen remodel — the kind of project where one person needs to run point on architects, designers, and subcontractors at once. Leonardo Leao, one of the company's two co-founders, is named directly in two of the five write-ups posted this year. One describes him staying present through the condo reconfiguration, lining up the architect and the designer himself and keeping the homeowner in the loop on what the reviewer called a massive project. Another credits him and a colleague, Bruno, with tearing out an old patio and putting in new pavers and a built-in grill that became the spot everyone now gathers in the backyard. A separate review describes a dated bathroom redone with close attention to small details and steady communication throughout, and a kitchen customer mentions the crew sending in a cleaning team once construction and the new appliances were finished. None of that is a one-off. Google shows 23 ratings at a 5.0 average, and Angi — where the account is listed as an Approved, accredited pro — shows another 5.0 from 5 separate reviews, with zero negative reviews logged in the past six months. Its Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor registration, license 209426, checks out as active with the state. Two things worth knowing before you call. First, the review count is still modest — 26 total across five sources going back to 2022 — so there isn't yet a track record of how the company handles a job that goes sideways. Second, Angi's own listing cites a different, self-reported trade license number (CS-118780) that isn't the same as the state-verified one; worth asking which license applies to your specific project so the paperwork matches. If your project is a full-room renovation or a multi-trade job that needs one person coordinating everything, rather than a single quick repair, Fidelity's reviews suggest that's exactly its lane. Confirm current insurance and which license covers your scope before signing anything, given the range of project sizes reflected in its reviews.
