What does window, siding, or gutter work cost in Greater Boston?
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Sterling Home Improvement, Inc.. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
— 2024 and 2026 customers had roofs replaced in one day
Site cleanup — the single most repeated praise across nine years
Owner-led sales — Denis presents every job and answers questions himself
Consistent crew — chief Mike named in reviews from 2017 to 2024
Registry-verified — Massachusetts home improvement registration is active
No repairs — only works on installs it performed itself
Full jobs only — no patch roofing or partial siding work
Insurance claims — the company does not coordinate with them
Pricing process — no quotes by phone, email or text before a visit
Dated record — most accounts were written before 2022
Thirty reviews spread over nine years, and two names carry almost all of them: Denis, the owner who does every presentation, and Mike, the crew chief who runs the job. A homeowner writing in July 2026 said Denis walked him and his wife through every shingle and pricing option, settled on a figure they both agreed to, and had the roof done in a single day.
Sterling Home Improvement has been at this since 1979, incorporating in 1995, working out of Danvers and Beverly and covering Massachusetts and southern New Hampshire. It does vinyl siding, replacement windows, blown-in insulation and roof replacement, cutting and shaping materials on site. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, number 114914, is active on the state registry. It has been BBB accredited since July 2009 with an A+ rating, and HomeAdvisor lists it as GAF Certified.
The praise is unusually specific about the same two things: the sales visit and the cleanup. A March 2024 customer described a 25-year-old roof replaced in a day — dumpster delivered that morning, gone the next, and no nail or scrap of debris found in the yard afterwards. In a March 2019 review a homeowner watched a roof stripped and replaced in about five hours and said that although Sterling was not the cheapest bid, Denis stood behind the products and system used. A May 2019 siding customer had a colour they loved on the swatch and hated on the house; Denis came back with a second choice. Several reviewers, going back to 2017, mention crews checking the finished work with them and clearing flower beds down to the last nail.
The rating is 5.0 on HomeAdvisor across 34 ratings, 5.0 on Porch across 45, and 5.0 on Google across seven. It is worth knowing that most of that written record is older — the bulk of the accounts sit between 2017 and 2022, with only one written this year.
Before you call, know the boundaries this company sets out plainly. It does not do repair work unless it did the original installation, it only takes full roofing and siding installations rather than patch jobs, it does not coordinate with insurance claims, and it will not discuss pricing by phone, email or text before an in-person meeting. It offers financing, including a 0% plan, and warranties.
For a full roof, a whole-house siding job or a window replacement on the North Shore, this is a strong call. For a leak repair or a storm-damage claim, it is not the right shop.

Denis came to my house, which was clearly in need of a new roof. To be honest, when I bought my home over a decade ago, I knew I needed a new roof. He walked my wife and I through all of our options for shingles and pricing and we came to a mutually-agreeable cost for the supplies and labor. The work was completed in 1 day, and I have to say, I'm very happy with the quality of the work and attention to detail both of Denis and his employees.
We had Sterling replace our 25 year old roof in March 2024. Denis was great. He is very personable and friendly. He explained all the options and answered any and all questions we had about the replacement.
His crew and crew chief Mike were outstanding. The dumpster came the morning of the job. They replaced the roof in a day. The dumpster was gone the next day. You would never know they were here. The roof came out great.
The cleanup was impeccable and the yard and driveway were spotless. We have yet to find a nail or or any remnant of the debris.
I would happily use Denis and his team again if we ever needed additional external work done to the house.
The team is extremely professional, kind and they get the job done right every time. I have worked with Sterling Home for the past two years and will continue to stick with them. I highly recommend this company to anyone in the market.
Sterling Home Improvement is a company that value there customers. Denis the owner, was the person who came to my home to do the presentation, he is very entertaining. Denis workers are professional, do a great job. Everything was cleaned up after. Since the job was done after sunset, Denis send the foreman over the next morning to check the area was cleaned, the roof was perfect
We hired Denis to replace our asphalt shingles, put on vinyl siding and install new windows. Denis thoroughly explained the process and the products that would be used. All three jobs were completed quickly, efficiently and to a high level of quality. Denis was also exceptional when it came to returning calls/texts (before, during and after the completion of the jobs). Also, he loves dogs and was great with our boxers (Note: "loves" may be an understatement... : ) ). Overall, it was a great experience.
