We're blown away by the outstanding work Franca Services did on our deck, windows, and roof. Their unmatched professionalism and attention to detail make them a top recommendation.

We hired Franca Services after the purchase of a new home that needed to be completely painted, ceilings, walls, trim, railings and doors. They were able to complete the job quickly and the house looks brand new. Pricing was competitive and easy to understand exactly what was being completed. The team at our home was able to communicate what they were working on each day and worked around our toddlers schedules making a much easier transition for the whole family. The crew was clean, quick and went above and beyond for us even replacing door hardware. We will be hiring them again for future projects and highly recommended them to anyone.

I hired Franca Services to replace my deck; the old deck hadn't been flashed properly and water was intruding into the side of the house. I consulted three companies; Franca gave me the best price and I was impressed by the level of detail and professionalism in their bid, so I went ahead with them. In general I was very happy with their work - their communication was good, they used high-quality materials for the deck even when the exact brand wasn't specified in the contract, they managed the whole job with minimal damage to the surrounding plants (this was quite challenging, as I have a small and densely-planted yard in Cambridge), they cleaned out all the rot from the side of the house and did a very solid repair+flashing job, and the final ipe deck looks great.

The only reason this review is four stars not five is that I did have to correct them a few times. For example, at one point in the project they told me the city code required the stairs to be widened, which would require removing some established shrubs. I asked them to double-check this with the city before taking out any plants, and it turned out they were wrong and the original stair width was fine.

Later on, they initially charged me double the correct price for the extra work to remove and repair the rotted areas (they charged me for 40 hours of work, when that part of the job was finished inside one workday and there were only two workers present); when I queried it, they corrected the hours (to 10 hours x 2 workers) and the price. The good news was that they didn't get defensive when questioned, and they were happy to check and make corrections when they were wrong.

I would happily recommend Franca Services for outdoor carpentry, in particular deck work, and I intend to reach out to them again when I need more exterior work done. I already recommended them to my neighbors, and I believe they're also happy with their new deck (it looks great from next door!) My one caution would be to carefully check any changes/charges that aren't detailed in the original contract, as sometimes their workers and supervisors do make mistakes.

We just used Franca Services for exterior painting and carpentry. My husband and I were very pleased with the work and the professionalism of Bryan and his crew. He was responsive from start to finish and eased any concerns. I was very pleased with the final product and highly recommend this company.
