After years of contemplation my wife and I decided to completely renovate our Cedar Home home inside and out. On the outside the job included the replacement of 4 of 10 exterior decks, 2 in Cedar and 2 in Ipe ( our new Ipe decks look the the deck of a yacht), replacement of 6 sliding doors with new Anderson sliding doors which included 4, 10 foot doors, as well as the replacement of our two regular outside doors and the design and construction of a new roofed entrance with cedar walls and ceiling. It further included the replacement of tongue and groove vertical cedar siding. As this siding can not easily be purchased Peter had to make the siding from scratch. We also replaced all the exterior trim around the doors, sliders and between the vertical courses of the siding. Peter also rebuilt and stabilized our cedar encased chimney which was about to fall over. Due to poor flashing when the house was built the frame work of the sliders and decks were rotted which meant Peter had to do a lot of demolition, engineering and thereafter reconstruction. On the inside Pete has also done a complete renovation, including the development and building of our kitchen, replacement of our two stairways with banisters, wood trim throughout the house in solid cherry and will soon begin our two bathrooms with vanities.
Peter's work is nothing more than outstanding. In my honest opinion if you searched the state of Massachusetts in fact the entire country you would be hard pressed to find anyone who would do a better job, or anyone who is more competent.
No matter how complex the task, or how impossible it seems, Peter approaches it methodically without a fuss and before you know it the job is completed.
Needless to say this job was extensive so I had some time to get to know Peter as well. In addition to be highly accomplished Peter is highly intelligent, well spoken, kind, patient and genuinely a nice person.
I give Peter my highest recommendation. I might add that I rarely write reviews and in fact I can only think of five that I have ever written. You won't go wrong with Peter Kress

Peter Kress did work on my home in the Fall 2010 in Acton. He did an excellent job - on time and on budget. Thanks, Peter.

Peter did a great job on a built-in unit in my family room. He matched the style of the existing woodwork perfectly and the quality is top notch. He was incredibly responsive and actually installed the unit a week ahead of schedule.

Peter measured and installed custom bookcases to flank my fireplace in the living room. They were slightly different sizes and he made sure they were a custom fit, including down to the trim to match the existing baseboard. My 1946 house looks like these bookcases were made for it! Excellent work and I would hire Peter again on any project.
