REGION – If it’s not perfect, it’s not C. Neilson Construction.
Chris Neilson, the owner of the company, focuses on providing quality work. It takes time to pull permits and “get the job done right,” he said, but it’s ultimately worth it in the end. For Neilson, every step of the process is important, and the results speak for themselves.
“It’s my name out there. I have two children who live with me. They’re going to college now. My wife is a teacher in Northborough. You want to be legitimate; keep a good reputation. It’s about doing the job properly. It’s a mindset. You want to put the best work forward possible, and that’s what I try to do with every project I complete,” he told the Community Advocate.
“To take that extra step every time, it’s worth it,” he said.
Neilson, who has worked in construction since graduating from trade school, brings decades of experience to the industry. He started renovating houses in Nantucket years ago, working on refurbishing old, rotted houses and fine-tuning his interior finish-work skills. While he still helps with rot-repair work today, he also has experience with foundation work, residential additions, deck construction, windows, doors, stairs and more.
“Experience is huge, especially in an industry like this. I’m really a perfectionist. I know a lot of people say that, but it has to be done the right way. That’s the bottom line. I don’t sacrifice what I think is right, and I think it’s really important to be dependable. Just because I’m a small business it doesn’t mean I’ll underbid others. I work long, hard hours and do fine work. I’m a seasoned carpenter.” said Neilson, who has worked in the MetroWest area and Cape Cod for years.
For Neilson, providing quality service is a matter of pride.
“When you walk into somebody’s house, you want to give them your best work. You have to take care of things properly. People pay you good money for top-tier work. Some people save money for this one project, and, of course, you want to do everything possible to make sure that the project is done right. When I do the work, it’s not something that’s going to fall apart tomorrow. It’s going to last; people paid good money for it,” he said.
Neilson likes to remind customers that small projects can make a big difference. For example, some nice crown moulding in the dining room or living room can make an ordinary room extraordinary – especially around holidays or when you feel the house needs a fresh touch-up.
Neilson, who is currently working solo, is looking for people to join the company and work beside him. Whether you’re a young person looking to learn the trade, a hardworking laborer, or someone with experience who understands the importance of quality craftsmanship, attention to detail and getting the job done right, Neilson would love to hear from you.
