The Boston Condo Repair Nightmare

⏳ "3-Week Wait"

Most contractors take weeks to provide COIs and background checks. We're pre-approved in 50+ buildings—start tomorrow.

The Condo-Compliant Workflow

Building Verification & Approval

We check if your building is on our pre-approved list. If yes, we start immediately. If not, we contact your property manager, submit our COI and background checks, and get approved—usually within 48 hours. You don't lift a finger.

Board Package Preparation

For renovations, we prepare the full architectural review packet: scope of work, insurance docs, noise mitigation plan, work hours, elevator reservation requests, and protection measures. We've never had a proposal rejected.

Building-Friendly Execution

We arrive on time, respect work hour restrictions, protect common areas, and clean thoroughly. Building management gets daily updates. Neighbors don't complain. Work completes on schedule with final inspection and sign-off.

Condo Services FAQs

How do I know if my building requires board approval? +

Check your governing documents. Most Boston condos require board approval for: structural changes, plumbing/electrical work, flooring replacement (noise), exterior modifications, and anything affecting common areas. Cosmetic work (painting, fixture swaps) usually doesn't. When in doubt, we contact your property manager first—free of charge—to determine requirements before you commit.

What insurance do you carry for condo work? +

$2 million general liability, workers' compensation, and commercial auto. Most Boston buildings require $1-2M liability and proof of workers' comp. We exceed standard requirements and can add your building as "additional insured" at no cost. COIs are issued within 2 hours of request. For high-end buildings requiring $5M+ coverage, we can obtain umbrella policies for specific projects.

Can you work with my building's specific rules? +

Absolutely—we prefer it. We work in buildings with: freight elevator requirements, specific work hours (9am-5pm only), parking restrictions, loading dock protocols, and doorman notification rules. We read your building's service provider guidelines and follow them exactly. Many property managers prefer us because we make their jobs easier, not harder.

What about co-ops vs. condos—do you work with both? +

Yes, and we know the difference. Co-ops (common in Brookline, Newton, and Chestnut Hill) have stricter alteration agreements and board interviews. We prepare the detailed packages co-op boards require, including financial references and project timelines. We've been approved by notoriously strict co-op boards—ask for references.

Can my building hire you for common area work? +

Yes—we love board contracts. We maintain common areas in 15+ buildings: lobby painting, hallway lighting, gym equipment, package room organization, and seasonal decorations. We offer preferred vendor agreements with volume pricing, dedicated scheduling, and direct billing to the association. Property managers get a single point of contact and detailed monthly reporting.
