"As an architect who cares a lot about details, I greatly appreciate that Ben and his crew really study my drawings and he calls me, if something is unclear. Often, he has a suggestion for how a detail can be simplified, while achieving the intent. Ben is a true collaborator!"

"Ben Brown was the general contractor overseeing a major renovation of our 1930’s home in Wellesley which involved taking the entire first floor and upstairs bathroom down to the studs, extending portions of the foundation at the front and back of the house, and redoing the HVAC and electrical system for the whole house. Ben was a pleasure to work with and we were thrilled with the results. We found him honorable and dependable; knowledgeable and skilled (including at dealing with unexpected issues that inevitably crop up when renovating an older house), and an excellent communicator both with us and our architect. Ben found ways throughout a challenging project to keep it on track, largely on budget, and to finish on time. We were also pleased with the quality of the work of all his subcontractors, including those he used to create the beautiful custom cabinetry throughout the kitchen, living room, study, and bathrooms. We would recommend him most highly."

"We had a vision for how we wanted our house to turn out: we very much wanted to keep and restore the period feel, including with natural wood, Victorian details, and even incorporating many parts of the original house. Ben had the added challenge that we not only wanted to be deeply involved in the process but also lived across the street during the construction, and he and his crews rose to the occasion, so the project felt like a real collaboration. There were many unexpected challenges on the project, but Ben was able to overcome all of them, responding with agility and in ways that produced better solutions. The end result came out wonderfully. We’ve very glad we worked with Ben Brown Builders on this project and have no hesitations about recommending him and his company."

"I would like to thank you and your crew for the quality and professional work you have done for me over the past 10 years! Attention to detail, that is what sets you apart from others I have worked with in the past. As a growing business, I have called upon you to expand my retail space, build workshops, and perform general maintenance. You have executed all of these jobs in a timely and professional manner working among my customers, staff and expensive products with thoughtfulness and care.
