Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to help you understand our process, services, and commitment before starting your WORKs project.

Are these certifications required to be a remodeler in Massachusetts?

No, they are not. These are voluntary certifications that we have proactively earned to go above and beyond the basic licensing requirements. It represents our personal commitment to achieving the highest level of professionalism and expertise in our field.

Does your entire team hold these certifications?

These specific, high-level certifications are held by our founder, Jesse DeBenedictis. His expertise and commitment to these standards set the tone for our entire company, and this knowledge is passed down through our training and our rigorous project management.

Why is a NARI certification better than just relying on online reviews?

Online reviews are a great indicator of past client satisfaction. NARI certifications, however, are a direct measure of professional knowledge, ethical commitment, and technical skill, verified by the industry’s leading authority. When you choose a NARI-certified remodeler, you get the benefit of both: proven satisfaction and proven expertise.
