Hawthorn Builders

We have been customers in Hawthorn's Home Care program for a number of years, and highly recommend it. Before we used their program, we were chasing electricians and plumbers to work on our house - we simply weren't a big enough part of their business to be a priority for them. With the Hawthorn program we have one point of contact who coordinates our work, from annual maintenance to issues as they come up. The work is completed quickly, and with Hawthorn's oversight we have a good partner who ensures we get the outcome we need. We have also used them to handle mid-sized remodeling projects, and have been very happy with the results.

We hired Hawthorn to complete a full renovation/rebuild of a 4,000 SF home in the Western suburbs of Boston. It was truly a pleasure working with their team. We have completed five similar renovation projects over the past decade with numerous other contractors and there is no doubt that Hawthorn stands above the rest. Their staff is professional, extremely communicative and fair. I found their project management process to make the construction and procurement process enjoyable (I have never had the same feeling on other projects) and found their site supers to be diligent, hardworking and experts at construction. I look forward to working with Hawthorn again in the future.

We worked with Hawthorn to build our home and we can't say enough good things about the process, people and final product. Every member of their staff was professional and friendly. The house is sturdy and beautiful. Their designer very accessible, creative, has great style and is lovely to work with. When issues arose, Ryan handled them fairly and directly.

We had a wonderful experience with Hawthorn. From the beginning they were professional, organized, and communicative. The end result is amazing and we are happy in our new home. We actually miss the building process because we had so much fun working with the Hawthorn team!

Hawthorn built a custom home for us. Their designs are great and the designer we worked with helped make our house a reflection of our personalities and truly feel like the home we were meant to live in.

We began working with Hawthorn Builders over two years ago when we first purchased our home. We asked Ryan and his team to come in and do update work to our heating and cooling systems, as well as make some structural changes to our livingroom. We were extremely pleased with the professionalism and efficient nature of his team, so when we wanted to add a master bedroom, master bath, laundry room, walk-in closet and reconstruct another bedroom in our home, we immediately called upon Hawthorn Builders. Once again their work exceeded our expectations on all levels.

Our complete master bathroom renovation with Hawthorn Builders was simply perfection. Once down to the "bare bones" Hawthorn's incredible carpentry team began the framing. Not only was their work impeccable, but the extra bonus was a complete clean up before they left at the end of each day! If needed, their day often ended at 10:00 P.M…meeting their deadline was as important to them as it was to us. The plumbing, which involved preparing our curbless shower along with all new fixtures, was flawless and also accomplished with great care in order to keep the scheduling in order and on time. Our new shower was beautifully tiled and artfully executed by Hawthorn's expert tiler, who was also willing to do what was necessary to complete his work, even if that entailed his being here on a Sunday to allow him the time he needed to do the job to his high standard Ryan McDonnell was a pleasure to do business with. He is direct, totally dependable, and a man of his word in every way. Hawthorn's greatest asset is Jessica Williamson, designer, coordinator, and problem solver extroardinaire. Jessica oversaw the project, helped us choose tile design, plumbing fixtures, paint color and everything that went into completing this project so beautifully. Our questions and concerns were always addressed promptly, emails answered immediately, and any glitch that popped up was often handled without us ever being made aware of it. We absolutely loved working with Jessica and her value to the customer is what sets Hawthorne apart from anyone we have ever worked with. Our new bathroom is simply beautiful and the entire project was worry-free….Hawthorne delivers..as promised and beyond.

Hawthorn Builders are amazing. They expertly lead us through a massive, 10-month renovation and addition project... pretty much the only thing remaining intact of our old house was the living room floor! This was a complicated, difficult project where we were dealing with conservation land issues, septic issues, old-house-meets-new-house issues, and the myriad other issues one can expect during a large renovation/addition project. Hawthorn continually gave excellent advice, supported our decisions and worked hard to resolve each and every new challenge. They are extremely knowledgeable, keep an excellent team of subs at their fingertips and are professional in all aspects. And on top of all that, their work is outstanding. We very proudly show off our new house. It's truly a work of craftsmanship and passion. Thank you, Hawthorn Builders!
