"I LOVE the Tom Curren company! I would give them an A+ if I could. They are professional, reliable, and a delight to work with. Both salesmen I've dealt with over the years are the nicest guys ever -- they return my phone calls promptly and are quick to schedule our initial meetings. They listen with great attention to exactly what I want done, take great notes, and give me an initial estimate that has almost never varied significantly from the final cost of the job. The workers arrive on time, exactly when scheduled, and do an excellent, high-quality job. I am always surprised by how quickly the work is done! Again, I've probably hired them a dozen times -- and the one and only time I was slightly less satisfied, the guys were out the very next day, fixing the job till it was perfect. They take pride in their work, and they are all such nice guys. Really -- I can't say enough good things about this company. What do people care about most in a contractor? Reliability, a good price, and quality work. Well, that is Tom Curren."

"Response time extraordinarily fast. After initial e- mail we heard back in less than 24 hrs and a rep visited the next day. Clear description of what they could do and the cost was much less than others from local carpenters. Job scheduled for the following week. Workers punctual, polite and knowledgeable, easy to have around the house. The finished product was fabulous, gutters replaced and covered. They matched our old paint perfectly. Good craftsmanship. Took care in the quality of their work. Cleaned up well. They remodeled a small room, replaced insulation, added ceiling and sturdy walls - not an easy project with tough dimensions. They offer many services, including handyman projects and painting. Know we will hire them again."

They did a great job on interior painting as well as a full kitchen and bath reno. Work done on schedule and great quality. If we were not satisfied with any detail, they came up with a solution right away.

"Tom Curren Companies recently completed painting the interior of my Victorian condo and I could not be more pleased with the results. Their painting crew was professional, efficient and very talented. The space has really been transformed and the attention paid to the details really made the difference. The walls look like new and the trim was repaired to look like it once did. The workspace was kept clean at the end of each day and the job was completed on time and within my budget. I would definitely recommend Tom Curren Companies for any painting projects."

"Tom Curren Companies was a very professional company that provided excellent service. I have been employing them over the past five years for multiple projects, including removing wallpaper from almost every room in the house and painting all the walls. Following the storms of the 2015 winter, there was a great deal of damage to the paint in the interior. Also the front porch lattice was deteriorating along with peeling paint along the whole front porch. The project planner inspected the property and gave me a very reasonable estimate to complete the job. When I needed to change aspects to the project before work started, Tom Curren Companies proved to be very flexible. Also, they were very open during the process. When the front porch trellis was removed, they found that there was rotting wood underneath. I was immediately informed of the rotting wood and what it would cost to replace it as well. Once I agreed, the wood was replaced promptly and the project was completed within a day. The rest of the porch was washed and painted within a day or two. In all, about six rooms were painted along with the front porch and lattice replacement. This took about three days total. Setup and cleanup was very thorough and complete. I highly recommend Tom Curren Companies for any home improvements."

"My home is the most important thing to me. I had 3 estimates done and I just didn’t feel comfortable with any of them. My son lives in Lexington and Tom Curren Companies happened to be working on a home across the street from where he lived. He told me to call them because they looked very organized and together. Tom came to my house, he was very personable and organized and you could tell dedicated to his professionalism. He discussed the work, and the concerns he had about the job. I really felt like he heard me, in my questions and concerns. This is especially good for women alone, or women who are managing their home improvements themselves. Tom has a trained eye, and he is honest. The Integrity and quality of craftsman ship from Diego, Gilmar and their crews is undeniable. They are very knowledgeable – Diego knows everything about paint and Gilmar can fix anything! They clean up after themselves and they are very respectful. Gilmar and Diego saved the day! They did great quality work on my home."

"The house looks great! Of the three companies I got bids from TC was the most expensive, but they were also the most clear about exactly what needed to be done (what the prep and cleaning would involve, how many coats were necessary, etc.). I ended up going with them because they were going to do a full base coat and 2 coats of paint where others were only going to spot prime and do one coat of paint. For a couple thousand dollars difference, this seemed like a much better option. And I'm happy I went with TC. They had 3 guys on location every day until the job was done. The team was very nice and cleaned up after themselves every day. They found some rot in the trim after scraping, and were able to Bondo it so I didn't have to call in a carpenter. And after the job was done the team leader spent an hour going over every surface with me making sure I was happy with everything (then followed up by fixing a few spots that needed further attention). Very happy with the result, and TC's focus on making sure the job is done right."

"We recently had exterior painting as well as significant carpentry repair work on our about 140 year old house. The work of the crews were excellent. Very neat and methodical workers. Always had a daily cleanup. The quality of the carpentry and the paining was excellent. The workers were very polite and courteous and easy to speak with. There was a final walk though to review all of the work. The initial evaluation was very professional with a detailed estimate which did not differ from the final cost. We had interior painting and carpentry done by Tom Curren's crews several years ago which was also excellent."

"Last fall our roof leaked and caused significant water damage in our bedroom. We had to delay the repair of our roof and the bedroom until after this harsh winter. Tom Curren Co. came to our home during a snow storm to look at the bedroom walls. He was warm and friendly. He explained the pricing and the project timeline. After we repaired our roof I contacted Tom Curren Co. to begin the project. They were extremely responsive and helpful. Initally they told me it would be late May before the project could be started; however, due to an opening in their schedule they were able to fit me in this week. I was so pleased with the work, as it was pretty extensive. Our ceiling had yellow stains, cracking paint and cracks in the plaster. Additionally, the water leaked under the paint and bubbled two of the four walls. The first day the painter primed, sanded and polished the entire room; day two he painted. The painter was timely, arriving at 7:30AM, before work, and he covered all the furniture. He removed his shoes in our home and left the space so clean. Before he left he vacuumed and entire room and dusted the furniture. I gave Tom Curren a B for price because they were slightly higher than the others I reviewed. That being said, you get what you pay for, and I was so pleased with the work, as it wasn't an easy task. They left the place looking better than ever and I would recommend their services to my friends and family."

"Overall, the timeliness and quality of the work was excellent, as was the timely follow-up (on a weekend, nonetheless). Our entire experience, from start-to-finish, set a new standard for how we expect to work with painters, carpenters, etc. Although the price was slightly higher than the competition, IT WAS WORTH PAYING due to the ease-of-interacting with the estimator, the office and the onsite foreman - as well as the quality and clarity of their estimate. We plan on using this company for many more projects - large and small - around the house over the coming months."

"A field service manager came to the house, reviewed needed work and promply provided a written estimate. Discussed the proposal and agreed to provisions. Work was scheduled and prior to starting, a second review with the individual to complete work was conducted. Starting date agreed upon, and work commenced on time and was completed on time and within budget. Throughout the time the work was underway, there was constant contact whenever questions arose. Upon completion, a final review was conducted and all work approved and payment was made. The experience overall was pleasant and friendly."

We are very pleased with the work that Tom Curren Painting did on the front porch deck of our house. We asked several different painting companies, but no one was able to actually understand how to approach the job beside Tom Curren Painting Co. Everything went smoothly from the first visit to discuss the job and receive a quote, to scheduling the job to actually getting the work done. All employees were very professional and courteous and our porch looks beautiful! Thank you so much!

"We are very happy with the how our house looks. The Tom Curren team was meticulous and thorough while painting our house. The result shows how professional their entire approach was, from the prepping, the painting, and finally the cleanup. We had the entire exterior done: siding, foundation, deck and stoop. Our direction and requests were understood and carried out to the letter. The team members were friendly, accommodating, and considerate. Highly recommended!"

"These folks worked with me on a very tight timetable and bent over backwards to get the work done. Two hallways had wallpaper stripped, walls patched, primed, and painted. The crew showed up on time, ready to work. They protected everything (entries to surrounding rooms, floors, electric outlets, light switches, etc.) with great care. They cleaned ALL the mess as soon as the wallpaper stripping was done. Once the walls were dry, they patched all scratches and scuffs thoroughly (including little dings I would not have noticed). They warned me in advance that the primer they were using stank to high heaven (and it did, but they said it was the best for my walls), so I was able to go outdoors for the brief time it took to dry and the odor to dissipate. They then painted the walls beautifully and even took my trim paint to touch up tops of baseboards and other areas of trim that were not originally included in the work order. They did not charge for that additional work, but insisted that they would not be happy with the final look of the project unless it was done. When they had finished, they cleaned absolutely everything and -- aside from ugly, stained, old wallpaper being gone and a beautiful paint job left behind -- there was no trace of them ever being there at all.""I had a great experience working with the painters from Tom Curren Companies. They were very professional, neat, and thorough. I would absolutely use them again!"

"Tom Curren is the go-to company for me. I live in a historic house that needs special care and I get attention to detail and quality from Tom Curren. Tom NEVER over-services to make an extra buck. He will not recommend painting when just a pressure wash will do the job. With this company it is a one-stop deal: if there's a screen whose frame is rotting it will be taken care of. If it is mold on the balusters, it will be treated. If it is birds that are nesting in the eaves, not a problem - a clever screening system is devised and installed. When I found - eek- mushrooms growing in the corner of the guest room, Tom Curren to the rescue! He was on it instantly. His guys opened the wall up, found a shattered pipe dripping. They supervised the HVAC company's repair efforts and kept on questioning and probing until the problem was solved. I have never experienced this kind of superb follow-through in any service company before. All the guys employed by the Company are responsible, timely, trustworthy, communicative and courteous. They will not leave the premises until they go over the work with me and make sure it meets with the client's satisfaction. If traffic holds them up, they immediately call in. You have their cell numbers. Coordination and scheduling is a breeze. The central office staff is superb as well. If there is an insurance claim, they provide the necessary documentation efficiently and completely. They too are friendly and courteous and oh, so helpful. I cannot say enough about how secure I feel living in this old place BECAUSE I know where to go if things go awry. Tom Curren is a phone call away. He is absolutely the best, and I say that knowingly. I had other painters, handymen, etc etc before I found Tom and they don't hold a candle to Tom Curren Companies."

""We have used Tom Curren Painting on several occasions for interior and exterior painting, and recently, they did a kitchen remodelling project which included refinishing some oak cabinets which had been salvaged from a college chemistry lab. They also built several new cabinets to match the old ones. The kitchen job also involved some electrical rewiring, lighting planning, and minor plumbing changes. Tom Curren has always given us estimates which have been close to the final cost. The work has been done on time as planned, and the work areas have been kept clean during the project and cleaned well at the end. The painters, carpenters, and plumbers have been pleasant, courteous, and careful, and we have felt comfortable having them in the house, even when we were not present.""

"Exceptional company. For Tom it is all personal. He oversees the project and takes deep pride in the excellence of the results. True attention to detail. When the work is completed they do an excellent job of cleaning up. For such high quality work their prices are more than reasonable. And there are no surprises. Tom presents a detail proposal after having gone over what needs to be done. The proposal includes detailed photos which is very useful to see before and after. Highly recommended."

"This was my second time using Tom Curren companies the first being to stain my deck last summer. Each time I am more and more impressed with not only their work but their entire operation. I called them immediately when I first noticed the damage and Bryan was prompt and came right out to assess the damage; he even came back out when the damage got worse. He was upfront and communicative throughout the entire process. The office team was prompt in scheduling and the workers could not have done a better job! They were efficient yet extremely thorough; they even repainted some minor paint chips that were not part of the water damage. It looks like the bathroom is brand new. As I stated earlier this was 2nd time using Tom Curren Companies and I already know of 3rd project I will use them for."

"I live in a 3rd floor condo, which is really the converted attic space of a 2-family house converted to a 3-family. The insurance company for the house,i.e., all 3 condos, told us last fall that I had to have my deck and the back stairs (i.e., "emergency egress) re-painted, or they would drop the insurance. Not only was Tom Curran Co. responsive when I asked for an estimate, they suggested I ask the insurance company if powerwashing in the fall and painting in the spring would meet the requirement. That worked! This not only made the project more affordable, as I paid only for part of the job in the fall, it also meant that having the work done in the spring, the paint job would be better (late fall not being the best time to paint outside). The price Tom Curran gave me was also the best estimate I got. In addition, they take credit cards, which I found very helpful. And they were terrific about contacting me by email, which is my preferred means of contact. Overall, everyone I dealt with was professional, considerate and helpful. My next big project at home is a bathroom renovation, and I look forward to getting an estimate from Tom Curran Co I will certainly factor in to their estimate the ease of working with them as well as their consideration when dealing with clients!"

"I had several conversations with Tom Curren's estimator because I was deciding how much work to have done. He was very professional, responsive and thoroughly explained what they could do, any difficulties they might encounter, and any limitations of the service. After we settled upon a scope of work, the estimator wrote down a detailed explanation so that the workmen would know exactly what was to be done. Tom Curren gave me a timeframe for scheduling the work and finished within the interval. The workmen called the day before arriving. I was not home when they arrived, so did not meet them and can comment on their professionalism only by how well they did the work. And judging by how clean the house was, they did an excellent job and were exceptionally neat - there was nothing for me to clean up. I would definitely use Tom Curren again."

"I cannot say enough good things about the Tom Curren Company - their work and their people are outstanding. Our bathroom needed a complete remodel and, based on quality of previous painting and handyman services provided by this company, we chose them to renovate our 70 year old primary bathroom. Project Manager Sue helped us with needed purchases and ensured that the project moved along as quickly as possible. She kept us informed and was always available to answer questions or address concerns. She regularly provided a detailed spreadsheet showing all costs, payments and other details. Sue is no longer with the company, but I'm sure that whoever is performing the function now would do an equally good job. Dave, who did the majority of the work, did top quality work and also had excellent suggestions to address some unusual challenges that our bathroom presented. The other craftsmen, including the electrician, plumber and painter were also excellent. Project was completed a little later than originally anticipated, but that was because we chose to have additional plumbing work done. They make an effort to inconvenience the customer as little as possible. For example, the demolition, which was major, was done while we were on vacation. All workers were very neat and tidy. The company's continued follow-up is also commendable. For example, about a year after the project was completed the toilet paper holder loosened up. We called and the company sent over a handyman who fixed that and also tightened up towel bars at no charge.

""We hired Tom Curren Co. for a relatively simple project, painting a hallway and staircase. They were great. Barry came out to provide us with an estimate - he was super friendly and incredibly honest about what he thought was/wasn't necessary. He also spent time assessing our kitchen for us which would be a more complicated job that we will do in the future. The scheduling dept was very prompt in scheduling us, and also very friendly. I was worried that they wouldn't be able to match our trim paint and that it would look weird, but they did a fantastic job. I also told them that I had my daughter's first bday party at our home that weekend and that we were getting our home cleaned the day before they were coming into paint - so they needed to be extra careful not to make a mess. They left our home spotless. Really happy with this company, would definitely use them again."

"After reading many reviews on many different companies, I chose Tom Curren Companies. They had the best reviews, and now I see why.I needed extensive repair on the trim, porch railings, fence and arbor. Also, the main portion of the house was due for painting.Communication with them was excellent. They always showed up when they said they would, and let me know what they were doing and asked any questions if needed about how I wanted things completed.Total work took about 3 weeks, and included wash and hand scrub the house, repair work, spot prime new work, and 2 coats of paint. All work was completed late in the year, October, except for the front door. It needed a special paint that required 70 degrees or more to apply. When the weather was warm enough, they returned to complete the door, and a few touchups on the trim. Everything looks great. Couldn't ask for a better experience with a contractor. They are very professional and dependable. I would definitely use them for any future work. Highest recommendation from me!"

"After reading previous glowing reviews of Tom Curren on Angie's List, I contacted their office to inquire about expanding our deck. They were able to send someone out the next day (Tom himself). He was very professional and extremely helpful in giving us ideas on design, etc. He and his staff also researched what was needed permit wise. He visited 3 times to discuss design, permits, etc. without us ever having committed to his company. We were satisfied with all the prep work and ideas he had so we went with him. Work started within two weeks and his crew showed right on time. Mario (foreman) and crew were extremely professional, courteous and hard-working individuals. Everything at the end of the day was cleaned up and stacked neatly with as little disruption to us as possible to our daily lives. They remained on schedule and were able to work in parallel with the electrician I'd hired to wire the hot tub. The finished job was better than we'd imagined and we will definitely use Tom Curren Companies again in the future.

"Tom Curren Companies sent a crew of three to paint a newly constructed addition as well as to sand down to bare cedar shingles and scrape the trim and paint half of the 1925 part of our large house. We couldn't be more pleased with the quality of their work and professional, friendly manner. Because of old lead paint on our house, everything was done properly according to EPA standards and the site was cleaned up at the end of each day. The crew leader kept us appraised of progress and anything that came up requiring special attention. Our experience with our sales rep and people on the phone at the office was always courteous and helpful. They were able to start a bit ahead of schedule and worked consecutive days til it was finished, holding off on the one rainy day. We are making plans for having them finish the sanding and painting for the rest of our house this September."

"After the Tom Curren Companies handled my interior painting work this spring, I had them back in August to do the complete exterior, which had also taken a beating from the harsh winter we just had. I asked the crew chief, Gustavo, from the first job if he was available and was very pleased that he was able to come. He and his crew -- Valentine, Miguel, and Cece -- were hard-working, precise, unfailingly polite, and did a fabulous job. They started with a thorough and much-needed power washing, then did extensive scraping, priming, and even necessary caulking. Then they did two complete coats on the body, trim, and doors. Gustavo made an excellent suggestion for carrying over the door color to a narrow strip of the trim at the roof line. This was an inspired idea and really helped the color of the trim and body pop. The entire team worked hard all day long and were good about cleaning up before they left. They kept me informed about where they were in the process. I did not hesitate to leave them when I went out to do errands. Additionally the office staff was extremely helpful with scheduling, billing, paint colors, etc. In fact, they apprised me of an opening in the schedule that allowed me to get the job done 2 weeks ahead of when I anticipated. I am delighted to recommend this crew and the company to anyone. Thank you to the entire team for making this project go smoothly and seamlessly. I look forward to using you again when needed."

"Curren has been our go-to painting and general company for many years. We have recently recommended them to our daughter who was pleased with the work as we have been. They are always dependable for high quality work provided by high quality people."

"A year ago, I decided it was time to paint my quirky antique cottage with its many gables and nooks. The painting team at Tom Curren was just the ticket. They were meticulous, easy to work with, thorough, and prompt. Neighbors and passersby continue to comment on the incredible paint job on my home. In addition, I hired them recently for some interior paint work and was equally happy. Their attention to detail and quick response time (when I decided to change the dining room color, again) are appreciated. Thanks to Diego and the paint team."

"Once we made the decision to proceed, the follow-through and the job quality were impressive. The job got done quickly and meticulously. The folks on site were organized, friendly, courteous and clean. These folks washed the entire home, including masonry surfaces, prior to painting. The best part was that the price was reasonable. We are very happy with the work Tom Curren performed and would definitely consider using them again for any future painting. Our house looks beautiful!"

"The whole process from initial inquiry through job completion was very professional. The job estimate included photos of thee areas to be repaired. The crew was punctual and neat, covering furniture as needed in the morning and cleaning up in the afternoon. The job was completed with the estimated time."

"Work was performed on schedule and at the price quoted. The workers from Curren were professional, polite, clean, and very skilled. They went beyond our expectations, even repairing items that were not on the original work order and for no cost. They showed up as promised on the project start date, and were prompt for every day of work. We would highly recommend their service, and in fact, we have already hired them to do further painting to the interior of our home so it will look as nice as the previously repaired and painted spaces."

"Tom Curren's painters have been painting the inside and outside of my house for the past 15 years. Our house is large, so they paint two sides one year, and the other two sides the next. They always work within our budget. The painting job lasted nearly 10 years. The painters are quiet, pay incredible attention to detail and are very pleasant to work with. Sometimes they have found repairs that need to be made to gutters or window frames or flashings and they will point out the problem, offer to have their carpenters fix things, write a change order so you know what it will cost before they do the work, and bring on the fixers if you want them to. Inside paint jobs are the same, quiet, clean and always pleasant to have these men in the house. I highly recommend these painters!"

"Having lived in an older home for so long I have developed an excellent relationship with Tom Curren Companies whose specialties throughout the metro-Boston area include painting, carpentry and remodeling. For the past twenty- five years Curren has maintained my 103 year-old home by keeping my gutters clean; painting both exterior and interior portions of my home; restoring and in part rebuilding my back deck which involved mildew removal, rotted wood in the railings, balusters and post caps, deck cleaning, sealing and repainting; cleaning the garage cinder block construction and repainting. I also had Curren out to the house to provide a quote for cleaning my home's exterior vinyl siding and removal of the roof moss. I was asked a number of question including one regarding any intention now or in the future to sell the house. I was given a reasonable quote for the cleaning job with the caveat that years after the cleaning, the dirt, stains, moss and mildew would return and probably have to be removed again if we decided to sell. Their caveat simply re-confirmed my opinion of Curren's reputability. "

"I have used Tom Curren for all of our interior and exterior painting projects for the last four years. The painters are tidy, prompt, and very professional. The quality of the work is of high caliber. The crown molding and attention to detail in every room is remarkable. I would use Tom Curren for any future project and recommend their services to my friends!"

"They came on time, did exactly the work agreed upon plus extra when they found significantly more rot which necessitated removing and replacing additional boards. The lock on the French doors had been checked by Andersen who explained it could not be repaired as well as another contractor. Tom Curren Company's team leader, Herbert, repaired the unrepairable door by patiently working each and every component, painstaking tweaking them until each piece fit together perfectly. And that was the way he approached the entire job- patiently, professionally, with exceptional results in each area he supervised or undertook himself. My husband and I have owned several properties in three states and NEVER have experienced this level of competence. Naturally, if we have any needs in our Weston home, we will call Tom Curren Company"

" Tom Curren Companies painted the exterior of our house in June 2005 and replaced the plastic shutters with wood ones. Tom was very helpful in choosing the color and the shutters. The job was done on time, on budget, and very professionally Tom Curren Companies has painted many rooms in our house at various times over the past few years. Tom has always been helpful in planning the job and recommending color choices. The painters have all been neat and professional, and never leave a mess. We have been very happy with their service. Tom Curren Companies remodeled our kitchen in approximately 2008. They replaced the cabinets and appliances, installed granite counters, and installed a ceramic tile backsplash. Tom worked with me to choose the granite, the tile and the cabinets. The job was done very professionally, on time and on budget. It turned out just the way we wanted. Tom Curren Companies has remodeled two bathrooms in our house -- the master bath and a second bath. In the master bath, they installed a marble floor and counters, a new glass shower enclosure with rain shower fixture, and glass tile in the shower and as a backsplash. In the second bath, they removed the tub and installed a tile shower, a new tile floor and new vanity. All of the work was done very professionally, on time and on budget. We have been very happy with the results.

They did a great job installing new decking and railings on our small side door steps & landing! They did the job in a single day. Every step of the way, each person we interacted with was friendly, prompt, and professional. Even when we decided to change our minds on one of the decorative items after they were ordered, they offered to replace them and come back the following week to reinstall them. I highly recommend Tom Curren company and will definitely use them again in the future!"

"The team was very professional, courteous and efficient. When they were finished restoring the severely weathered Spanish cedar siding, the siding looked new (looked exactly like it was when it was installed 16 years earlier. I could not have been happier. I do not hesitate highly recommending them for this type of job. The job they delivered exceeded my expectations!!"

"In our home, people always gather in the kitchen so it has to be nice. So when painting, spackling and minor upgrades were needed we turned to Tom Curren Painting because of our history with the company. Previous jobs have always been pristine, well executed and on time/budget. They did not disappoint with this most recent job. They also helped pick colors, were diligent and polite. Well done Tom Curren Painting."

"Tom and his crew came over and walked the house for all the projects we had identified. They showed up on time, asked the right questions (My wife's an architect so she's tough) and spelled out all the steps to each job. An estimate and schedule was presented and readily agreed to. And did they deliver. They even keep a database of paint colors/codes for any future projects and updates. If my wife is happy they must have done a good job. We will certainly use them again and recommend them to friends."

"They started the work a day earlier than planned AND they cleaned up every day before they left. As the work progressed and additional problem areas were discovered (as typical with any job of this sort), the supervisor discussed each item either with myself or my wife if I was not home to be sure that we wanted that item fixed. When the job was completed the additional charges for the extra work was more than reasonable. All work, painting and carpentry, was neat and professional. I did not find a single drop of spilled paint and they left me labeled cans of every paint used."
