Has anyone used Jim Luty before? If so, any thoughts?
Any other suggestions?

Basil was great with me. It did take a few days to connect. He met me at my new condo. We walked through and I told him what I needed done. A couple of days later there was an estimate emailed to me (he's not cheap). I said yes. He came to the condo I was living in and picked up the keys to the new apartment. I wanted to give him some money - he said he didn't need any funds until the job was complete. There were insurance issues with the condo association. He took care of them for me. I only stopped by once to give him the paint colors I had chosen (he refused to choose them for me) and to clarify where I wanted 2 chandeliers hung. 3 week later he called to say he was done. I drove over and the work was perfect. He came to my office a couple of days later for payment. It is now 9 months later and I am completely satisfied with the amazing quality of his work.

I agree. Basil did show up for his appointment but he never came back with an estimate. It was a waste of time.

I have to agree - totally reliable. Also, the workman who did my job were terrific and hardworking. Embarrassing that they leave your house cleaner at the end of each work day than it usually is when there is no construction.

He did a great Remodel for me in Journal Square and he is doing a property downtown for a friend of mine. Guaranteed best work for your money.

Basil might be good but he is not reliable.

He didn't show up to 2 appointments I had with him. I had to call/text him at least 8 times to get him to come to my place. After he came, he promised an estimate but I never heard back. Don't waste your time with him.

He did a great job for me quickly and independently - he phoned me when he was done & it was exactly what I had asked for.

Hi,

I'm new to the Hamilton Sq. area, and just wondering if anyone can recommend a good, reliable contractor who can perform a complete house gutting and renovation.

Thanks in advance.
