"I've used Arborview's construction team extensively over the past couple of years. From small maintenance jobs to a complete renovation of my restaurant, the work has always been professional, thorough, and of the highest caliber. The men are always on time, work cleanly and are respectful of the environment they are working in. I will continue to use them in the future and would highly recommend them."

"Over the past 20 years we have done many renovations to our homes. The Arborview Companies has integrity and is among the best we have worked with. Our renovation came in on budget and on time. Christian Iantosca worked very hard managing our project and did a wonderful job making sure that the work was done as planned, watched the details and always kept us informed of the progress. Also, he worked with us on design challenges and helped us make informed decisions. The work crews were pleasant and really wanted us to be happy with their work. Christian was a pleasure to work with and we would happily hire The Arborview Companies again!"

"Our entry looks GREAT!  First impressions make such a big difference and the work that you did makes the entire house feel finished.  Your crew did a great job quickly for a fair price.  We would not hesitate to call you for the next project."

"Arborview is a great full service real estate firm. I have worked with Christian Iantosca twice now and would recommend him to anyone. My most recent transaction included the renovation of my first condo. Christian knew exactly what cosmetic improvement needed to be done to get my old place market ready, and we had a signed P&S in 1.5 weeks!  He coordinated contractors to quickly do the work with minimal disruptions to me . . . needless to say I was very impressed."

"Christian Iantosca and the Arborview Companies were recommended to me to perform renovations to my Jamaica Plain condo in the spring of 2006. As a first time homebuyer, I was both excited and nervous about performing renovations to the unit, especially since I would be living in it while the work was done.

Christian worked with me to discuss the work we wanted to do, and to establish a budget for each part of the renovation. From the beginning, he said he wanted to be sure that we both understood what was involved: “I want to make sure you get what you want. I want to make sure it’s perfect.”

He got what he wanted -- and so did I. The work was done on time, under budget, and fit seamlessly into the condo. The work involved removing walls, installing a gas fireplace, repairing the ceilings, walls and floors, and putting up trim to bring two newly combined rooms together. I could not have been more pleased with the outcome.

Christian also made the renovation process easier by staying in constant communication with me about the schedule, work progress, decisions that we needed to make about finishes, etc. I have been involved in various aspects of the engineering design, construction and real estate businesses for more than 20 years, so I was prepared for a lot of unpleasant surprises. There were none. I was very impressed by Christian’s professionalism and the work product delivered by his firm.

If you’re looking for integrity and professionalism, I heartily recommend Christian Iantosca and the Arborview Companies."
