Decks
Report
Deck building is an art and a science. If done correctly, it adds a unique and beautiful element to your home's exterior. But if not done right, a poorly-built deck can result in serious injury or worse. There are hundreds of deck collapses every year, primarily due to poor building techniques and cheap building materials.
Basement
Report
However, before starting a basement remodeling project, it is important to first assess the basement for water issues. If there are existing or potential water issues, basement waterproofing must be completed first prior to initiating the basement renovation or remodeling project.
Bathroom
Report
Is your bathroom looking a little outdated? Does your vanity or countertop look a little rough? Is it so cramped that you can hardly get through your morning routine? Perhaps your bathroom looks fine, but you are longing for some luxury. You dream of custom showers with multiple shower heads, body sprays, and custom tile.
Kitchen
Report
Remodeling your kitchen is one of the most exciting things you can do for your home. Are your cabinets looking a little shabby? Does your tile floor look like it is always dirty? It may be time for an upgrade. A new kitchen remodel is one of the best investments you can make in your home. A recent before picture. Our customers wanted us to take this kitchen from meh to Marvelous.

I had never done a renovation before- so from the minute I spoke with Ryaan I was so impressed by the professionalism-- I knew I was in the best of hands. He, Kristina and their team are fantastic. designer Emma O is incredibly talented and helpful! The tiling is masterful by Bardhyl, a true artist! Every person attached did their jobs and beyond.

And the result. just amazing. If I had known RJT Carpentry before, I would have done this way sooner! They made the process as easy as it can be with one bathroom! And so pleasant an experience. I have not heard too many people say that about their contractor AFTER the project is done!

Couldn't be more pleased with Ryaan and his team (Bobby, Val, Connor, Kristina, etc.) They were super easy to work with, responsive, reasonable and forthcoming with pricing and timelines, and the overall product is incredible. They removed wall paper, painted, installed a french door, and turned two bedrooms into a giant bed, bath, walk in closet. 10/10 would recommend, and can't wait to refer or use them again!

From our initial conversations about my project through to completion, RJT Carpentry and Tile Inc.'s improvements and renovations proceeded as planned, organized and timely manner. Ryaan and his Team were highly skilled and worked efficiently and at a reasonable price. Any project change was discussed with appropriate action taken. Overall, it was a pleasure and I would certainly recommend RJT Carpentry and Tile Inc. for their professionalism, capabilities and look forward to working with them again.

I would highly recommend RJT Carpentry and Tile for your kitchen and bathroom renovations. I recently had Ryaan and team gut renovate my kitchen as well as do a more minor renovation in my bathroom. I must say that I was impressed with the designer with whom they work, Anna Orfanides. I told her what style I was looking for, and Anna knocked it out of the park. It's simply stunning, and everyone who has seen my kitchen is impressed.

While it was merely a galley kitchen in a Brookline condo, Anna envisioned a design that made it much more functional, timeless, and chic. Hilary Farr would be impressed. Ryaan and team are highly detail oriented. There was one incident where there was a problem with some of the lighting materials. While some contractors would have taken a shortcut and simply have installed the lighting as is, Ryaan and his electrician Chris, who was a perfectionist, made sure that the vendor was held accountable, and they refused to install the product until the issue was resolved with the manufacturer.

It should also be noted that Ryaan and team are in constant communication from the project inception until the very end. Kristina, the project manager, is unbelievably responsive. You really can get in touch with her around the clock. The workmanship is impeccable, and it's the first project I've done with a nonexistent punch list. Ryaan took care of small details before I even mentioned them. Finally, I want to add that they are just nice people.

I really do think animals are the best judges of character. My dog is a Lhasa Apso, and there are some people he just doesn't like. I was worried that there would be lots of barking and growling throughout the project. However, that was not the case. My dog took a liking to the project team from the beginning. There was no barking and growling. If he can trust them, so can I. It was a wonderful experience, and they really have earned five stars. Thank you!

Ryaan and his team absolutely ROCKED our bathroom renovation. We pushed them both in concept and technique and they produced amazing results in both regards. They were incredibly clean and professional the entire time and not only did they execute our vision but they exceeded it exponentially. The entire team put their heart and soul into this project and it is with a grateful heart that I say the experience and outcome would not have been the same without them. I 100% recommend Ryaan and his team for any and all projects. I look forward to working with them again.

I found Ryann on The Instagram Platform a couple years ago now. I decided to use this outlet to vet subcontractors in Boston. My best decision was unknown at the time, yet my company would prosper in many ways due to that faithful interaction. From Big Frames, Roofs, kitchens, Bathrooms and siding projects, Ryann is my number one go to man In the industry.

His problem solving is unique and focus is unparalleled. He has sexy tattoos. Man has style and is a dynamic thinker. I don't hesitate at all to recommend Ryann and his crew for home owners or contractors. Ryann thank you for your commitment to grow this industry. Over and out

RJT Carpentry and Tile proved to be an excellent choice. Our condominium association has had Ryaan do two different projects, and we intend to use him in the future. His pricing is reasonable and competitive. The work was well done, on time, and on budget per the contracts. The work areas were always kept clean and neat. From start to finish, he has been professional and courteous.

Communication was always timely. Moreover, he dealt effectively and patiently with the town bureaucracy, making the association officers' job easier. You definitely need to consider RJT Carpentry and Tile for any project you are planning.

So professional! My bathroom renovation had a hard and fast deadline as new tenants had signed a lease. Ryaan assured me the project would be done before their move in date and it was. The crew was so careful of the hardwood floors and cleaned everything up when they were done. I can't wait to use RJT again for future projects and I would not hesitate to recommend them. Professional in every sense of the word.

Not only is Ryaan a master craftsman, but he also has the patience of Buddhist monk and the professionalism of a career diplomat! As someone who manages real estate for a living I've had more than my fair share of "bad" contractor experiences, so when it came time to renovate my home I was nervous. However, choosing Ryaan/RJT was one of the best decisions I have made in a long time.

From the project's start to finish I feel I was in constant communication with Ryaan: he would check-in, follow-up, offer suggestions/etc, actions you would expect from your contractor but unfortunately rarely receive. While my project was not without its challenges, what renovation isn't, the way Ryaan seamlessly navigated those challenges was nothing short of perfection, and the work speaks for itself (it's beautiful). My only regret is that I did not start this renovation sooner with Ryaan/RJT, do not hesitate in using them, they simply are the best!

We hired Ryaan and his team to completely renovate our kitchen in Jamaica Plain, and we are extremely pleased with the results. This was our first experience working with a contractor, and we met with several before beginning the project. Ryaan was the only person who responded to emails promptly, showed up when he said he would, and gave a detailed quote that included everything we'd talked about.

In addition, his price was much more reasonable than any others. Throughout the project, Ryaan was always available via phone or email. He got back to messages quickly and if there was a delay in beginning the next phase of the project, he let us know why. In reading about others' experiences with contractors, this seems like a rare find. We are hoping to use RJT for our bathroom remodel in the future, and would certainly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and skilled carpenter/contractor in the Boston area.

RJT Carpentry and Tile made some sawhorses for me last fall and they were amazing. Quality workmanship that last the entire year. And GREAT customer service! I'm so thankful for them!

We were very impressed with Ryaan and his team. They were very prompt with their communications, arrived on time and completed their work in a timely, efficient manner. They talked us through the entire process so we'd understand the carpentry work that would be completed. We've worked with a lot of contractors for various home improvement projects and RJT is by far the best we've ever worked with. We received multiple quotes that seemed outrageously high and RJT gave the best value. Thank you Ryaan for being so accommodating and creating beautiful built-in shelves.

Working with RJT on our exterior remodeling project was great. Communication was fantastic not only with the crew on-site, but also with Ryaan via phone and email. Any time there was a question, or an ask, there was never an issue talking through our options and agreeing on a solution. Living in the city, space is tight, but RJT coordinated and scheduled everything to make it work.

The quality of the work is amazing. Throughout the project, and now at the end, we have gotten so much great feedback from neighbors that it looks like a band new house. Would highly recommend this company to everyone. Thanks!

We interviewed 3 contractors for a roofing and skylight replacement job in Jamaica Plain. Ryaan came back with the best price by far. He showed up when he promised, did the job well in one day, and dealt with our condo association with absolute professionalism. I have never met a contractor so responsive and I am a Realtor so I deal with a lot of them!

Ryaan redid our tri-decker's condo deck after a tree demolished it. We spoke with several contractors before choosing Ryaan. He was honest, straight-forward, and knew his stuff. His team did a great job on the deck. They came when the said they would and finished ahead of schedule. I recommend him often.

RJT is a great company to work with. Ryaan is in contact with you every step of the way, and unlike so many other contractors out there they show up every day until the job is finished. The work was done well, and the employees were super nice and respectful while in my home. I would recommend that anyone looking for work to be done give them a call, they are the real deal.

We used RJT Carpentry and tile to do extensive repair work on our historic home. The entire experience from start to finish was absolutely perfect. Everything was on time, and on budget. They were super easy to work with, and are true craftsmen in everything they do. Site was cleaned up perfectly when they were done. Can't say enough good things about them!

We were having trouble finding a reliable contractor. We found Ryaan and his crew through a referral and we were so glad we did. He not only took his time to explain every step of the job to us, he made us feel comfortable and kept us up to date on every step of the project. The job was kept clean at the end of each day and there were no surprises along the way. We got exactly what we wanted and would recommend RJT Carpentry and Tile to any of our friends and family.

RJT Carpentry & Tile do a great job! I found Ryaan the owner to be very clear about what the job would entail and gave me a very accurate detailed estimate. Getting an accurate estimate is something I have truly come to appreciate. RJT Carpentry & Tile show up as scheduled and complete the job as scheduled. The quality of work is excellent! They are friendly and professional. I highly recommend them.

Our downtown Boston condo association hired RJT on the basis of the recommendations we saw here on Yelp. Ryaan and crew lived up to the reviews. Twice, they showed up on schedule and on time. Ryaan uses the phone and e-mail to keep us completely informed about his progress. Their project estimates adn schedules are reasonable and accurate, and their work is top-notch. In 25 years of hiring contractors in the city of Boston, I have never encountered one who is more responsive or does better work. RJT is an outstanding company.
