Cogs was hired to replace the front porch and several 3rd story windows. In the past, we've had experience with contractors not showing up for days at a time, cutting corners or finding change orders under every rock. We're pleased to say nothing could be further from the truth with Cogs and wish we could keep them on retainer. Everyone who works for John showed up on time and got the job done plain and simple. If we saw something that we felt should be different, the answer wasn't "sure, that'll be x dollars more" or "too b... read more

We hired John/Cogs Construction a few months ago after we came highly recommended from a friend. We worked closely with John as he helped us completely redo our kitchen and bathroom, as well as add some upgrades and paint the rest of our new home. As first time homeowners and the first time we had taken on a project like this, we turned to John for his guidance and expertise. He helped us prioritize, guided us on materials to use, when it was beneficial to go a littler higher end (and when it wasn't), and was right on schedu... read more

A tree feel across our garden shed, across the carport, and onto the bedroom roof, breaking the skylight. We chose Cogs Construction after interviewing 3 different professionals. John did a fantastic job of rebuilding the carport from scratch -- it is incredibly sturdy and could survive even another tree falling on it. He was also remarkably personable. Two things prevent me from giving 5 stars. 1) The skylight that was broken had an attached shade; the company that makes these skylights sells skylights with shades pre-attac... read more

We hired John at COGS construction to complete several small repairs at our home in Melrose. John is punctual, professional and thoroughly competent. Knows his stuff & someone who makes the whole experience a breeze and delivers excellent quality results at a great price. I would recommend him without hesitation.

John and his team have done several prjects in my home (painting / Built in book shelves / Wainscoting) - Their workmanship is fantastic! I could not have been happier with the results. The price was excellent and worth every penny. John is so easy to work with, he took great care of my house while he and his team were there. I am one happy client!

We hired John and his team to install a master bathroom in our new house last fall. Because we were new to renovation projects of this kind, we had concerns about hiring someone trustworthy, and we are very happy we went with John. He was very professional, considerate and responsive in his communication during the project. He patiently answered all our questions in great detail, providing pros and cons but respected our decision at the end of the day. Through John's referral, we worked with a wonderful designer who helped u... read more

Good workmanship and nice company to deal with. Gave estimate and the price was near what they quoted. no hidden costs. The job was efficient and completed in a timely manner. Installed several kitchen cabinets and repairs were made. Use them again when I need their services.

John and his crew were extremely professional, thorough, careful, and a delight with which to work. He was in and out of our house for well over a month, and we were extremely pleased with all of the results. He gave input when necessary and guidance when asked. And, he truly cares that his customer is happy. I look forward to a future project with John and his crew. He loves what he does, and it shines through in every conversation and project.

I hired John and Cogs Construction as a referral from another contractor to do a small job that I had received estimates for but did not want to hire that contractor. I explained what we needed to do and when we met in person, John suggested an alternate solution which ended up costing us almost $3000 less than the original estimate. What they ended up doing looks much better than what was recommended to us by another contractor and it saved us money. They were respectful of our home and cleaned up after they finished their ... read more
