The new com- pany will provide carpentry and remodel- ing services from Newton to Shrewsbury, Massachusetts. “We provide three primary services to condo complexes: Carpentry—decks, siding, and windows; roof rejuvenation via a national firm called Roof Maxx; and insurance remodeling after the emergen- cy services are completed,” David Levy says. The company is the first authorized Roof Maxx dealer in the MetroWest Bos- ton area. Sterling’s carpentry crews, he says, “are available to help board members and management companies provide a creative solution to the vexing chal- lenges of tight budgets and aging siding and decks.” The new company, based in Holliston, Massachusetts, can be found at www.SterlingRemodel.com.
