Almar Building and Remodeling

What Almar Building and Remodeling does

Almar Building & Remodeling Co. is a third-generation, family-owned design-build home remodeling company headquartered in Hanover, Massachusetts, serving residential customers across the South Shore of Massachusetts and Upper Cape Cod (including Hanover, Norwell, Scituate, Marshfield, Duxbury, Milton, Hingham, Cohasset, Weymouth, Braintree, Plymouth). Founded in 1959 by Gerald Quinn, the company transitioned to second-generation leadership under Terry Quinn in 1973 and to third-generation leadership under CEO Allison Quinn Guido in 2002. It is a privately held corporation with no disclosed investors, parent company, or external funding rounds.

The company's core product is end-to-end residential design-build remodeling delivered through a five-stage process (Initial Meeting, Budget Preparation & Review, Project Development & Design, Building, and Enjoyment). Service lines include home additions, kitchen and bathroom remodeling, basement finishing, decks and outdoor living, and in-house interior design services. The technology layer is built around the third-party Buildertrend platform, which provides customers with a 24/7 project portal for progress photos, schedules, change-order approvals, selections, and messaging. Almar holds differentiating partner statuses including Azek Platinum Contractor and CertainTeed 5-Star Contractor recognition, and works with a network of design and trade partners (Rockwood Design, Beth Borque Design, TopNotch Kitchen Design, Anne Lydia Design, Andersen, TimberTech, Yale Appliance).

The business model is project-based: each engagement is custom-priced according to scope, design requirements, materials, and complexity, with billing structured around a Progress Payment Schedule rather than a traditional 1/3–1/3–1/3 milestone split. Revenue is generated one project at a time from individual residential homeowners, with 90% of business sourced from referrals and repeat clients. Go-to-market is sales-led and direct: customers initiate via website consultation request or phone (781-826-2577), the company responds within 24–48 hours, and qualified leads convert to on-site consultations. Marketing is executed through a regional mix including the company website and blog, social channels (Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, YouTube, LinkedIn, X), Houzz professional profile, and earned media (South Shore Home Life and Style Magazine). Standard terms include a 3-year warranty on all work.
