Rob G. Norwood, MA
-Mike and Kathy at MKE are incredible to work with. MKE took our vision for our addition and made it a reality. Kathy is incredibly organized and Mike is a skilled builder. Mike and Kathy communicated with us throughout the entire process and 3 years later we couldn't be happier with our project. I fully recommend MKE and will use them again in the future.
Katia K., Braintree, MA
-I recently had the pleasure of working with Michael & Kathy Egasti/MKE Development Corp. for a comprehensive renovation of my house, and I am thrilled with the results. From start to finish, their professionalism, craftsmanship, and attention to detail were exceptional.
Project Scope: The renovation included a complete overhaul of the kitchen, three bathrooms, and a finished basement. They also updated the flooring throughout the house and painted both the interior and exterior.
Quality of Work: The quality of work was outstanding. The new kitchen is a dream come true – modern, functional, and beautiful. The bathrooms were transformed into luxurious spaces, and the finished basement has become our favorite spot for movie night.
Professionalism: Michael & Kathy Egasti/MKE Development Corp. maintained a high level of professionalism throughout the project. Communication was clear and consistent, and they were always available to answer any questions or address concerns.
Attention to Detail: One of the most impressive aspects was their attention to detail. They made sure that even the smallest details were perfect, which made a significant difference in the final outcome.
Project Management: The project was completed on time and within budget, which is a testament to their excellent project management skills.
Overall Experience: I am extremely satisfied with the entire renovation process and the end result. Michael & Kathy Egasti/MKE Development Corp. exceeded my expectations in every way. My home feels brand new, and I receive compliments from everyone who visits.
Amar G. Braintree, MA
-Michael and Kathy are awesome to work with! Michael was very thorough in understanding the project we wanted to undertake and scoped it out appropriately. He was very knowledgeable, honest and felt trustworthy and was one of the main reason that we went ahead with this project. MKE tried to keep the project as much on track as possible given that they were juggling with multiple high priority projects. I was always able to get a response from them regardless of how busy they were. Some of the sub contractors they hired weren't up to the same standards that Michael and his core team delivers consistently and I have already provided them this feedback. Overall a great team to work with for any of your construction needs, I highly recommend giving them a chance to discuss your project needs!
Mark M. Woburn, MA
-I was extremely pleased with the install of our pergola. Thanks to Michael, a project that could have been extremely hectic due to many obstacles and nice finishes close by went very smoothly. I was very impressed by the level of knowledge and professionalism during our install. The install team communicated very clearly with the management team as well as the subs. The site was always kept clean and most importantly safe. This team was amazing to work with. They were attentive, professional, pleasant, passionate, clean, timely, safe and had great respect for the overall project and vision. I will certainly be reaching out to them for any future pergola installations.
Karla K. Groton, MA
-We are happy with our pergola. The installation personnel were professional, knowledgeable, clean, and respectful of my property. Happy with the response time of the service team. Resolved issue when there was one.
Jenn C. Braintree, MA
-The MKE team was great to work with. Very knowledgeable!
They always arrived on time and cleaned up the site. I would definitely use them again.
Leon P. Weymouth, MA
-I can't say enough good things about Michael Egasti and MKE Development Corporation. If you are considering building a new home or taking on home improvement projects, MKE is the way to go. The professionalism, level of detail, product knowledge, outstanding service, quality craftsmanship, environmental awareness and technology integration is second to none. If you are looking for just an honest opinion, they can definitely help. If you are concerned about being on time to a job site and cleanliness is important to you, they will make sure that the completion of your project, will be satisfactory. Any problems or concerns are always addressed in a timely manner. I highly recommend them for your project.

Kathy Huntington, Milton, MA - Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage
Kathy and Mike Egasti, MKE Companies, are simply the BEST to work with. I have had the good fortune to work with Kathy and Mike for over 15 years and I have seen first hand the level of hard work, devotion to their clients and exceptional level of excellence in the design and construction of every project we have worked on. I have worked with them on new construction, additions, and the renovation and rebuilding of homes. Their pride of workmanship, devotion to detail, and most of all their honesty and integrity is why they have such a wonderful following of clients who continue to recommend them to their friends and family. I have been in real estate for 22 years and I highly, highly recommend them to everyone I can !!

Kathy has a generous community mindset and does an amazing job planning and executing on her ideas! We were happy to work with her when she started the Braintree Craft and Vendor Market. Kathy is a thoughtful business owner with creative ideas and serious attention to detail.

Kathy and Michael gutted our house and redid it for us in 2018 and they did a wonderful job. We love it and always get compliments. The quality of their work is unmatched and I would recommend them to anyone.

Vivi P., Braintree, MA
MKE took over a complex home renovation job after we had to fire our previous contractor. The team handled the situation with care and worked with us to make the best of a challenging situation. We are very grateful they were able to help complete our master bath and laundry closet. We recommend them to anyone looking to do a renovation!

Maureen H., Braintree, MA
I just want to say "Thank You" to Kathy & Michael for building my amazing gym. I absolutely love it and couldn't be happier. I'm appreciative that you squeezed my project in. Your work is always amazing as you both are and you are great to work with. I'm so grateful.

Justin H. Braintree, MA
-MKE Development continues to impress me in keeping up and with staying ahead of all new construction, audio/visual and energy efficient trends in new home construction. My wife and I worked with MKE on the design and construction of our new home in Braintree in 2013. We couldn't be happier with the outcome and our continued personal relationship we have with the owners. We highly recommend working with MKE, they can make your dreams come true while completely understanding and working within your desired budgets.

Mark V. Needham, MA
-We hired MKE Development a couple years ago to put an addition on our house and update our kitchen. The workmanship that MKE provides is second to none. I've worked with several other contractors/designers and I will continue to use MKE for everything. Truly a pleasure to work with and I can't speak enough to the quality of their work.

Gail M. Braintree, MA
-We engaged MKE Development to gut and remodel our basement to make it be a functional and pleasant home office in the summer of 2020. From start to finish, we felt like MKE wanted to make sure we achieved the type of workspace we had dreamed of. MKE was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and courteous. They answered all our questions in a very timely manner and the project was also completed during our desired time frame. Workmanship was very high quality and even better than we anticipated, based on work we had done by other contractors in our home. They went above and beyond the scope of the work. We are very pleased with the usability of the space as well as the beautiful appearance and get a lot of compliments from visitors to our home. I love the fact that they are always investigating new products and services to offer their clients related to making their homes and yards their "dream" homes and yards. They are now offering pergolas, which are a great way to provide shade to your family and visitors, in a stylish and beautiful fashion. Their work is so outstanding, I'm sure anyone that proceeds with engaging them to set up a pergola in their outside area will be very happy with the installation. Plus, the brands they are offering are very attractive and high-quality.

Marc D. Braintree, MA
-We're one of the lucky families that's had the privilege of having MKE Development design & build our house for us. We discovered via an open house they were hosting. The house wasn't to our specifications, but the design and attention to details really caught our attention and inspired us to work with them.
What immediately stood out with MKE is how quickly we developed a personal relationship with them. Building a house is a really stressful experience, but working w/ Mike & Kathy made the process so much easier. Mike's experience and knowledge along with Kathy's ability to manage schedules and costs guaranteed ending up a with a finished product that far surpassed our expectations.
Mike constantly keeps up with the latest construction trends and technologies. They also have expertise installing home theater systems. It was really easy to work with them to specify how we wanted our house built. Super highly recommended! Overall we couldn't be happier with the results. We keep in contact with them and know we can always ask questions for advice regarding any issues that come up in our house.

Gregory D. Quincy, MA
-Michael built us a fabulous energy efficient beach house and has since updated it with a garage, a basement, and new interior steps. He also installed a set of steel beams to improve the ability of the house to weather storms and water table changes that come with a house by the ocean.

Todd N. Braintree, MA
-MKE and Michael are an amazing company to work with. They are meticulous in all work that they do. We had the lucky fortune to purchase one of their amazing homes. The home was energy efficient, well built, and furnished beautifully with amazing fixtures. We wish they could build every home we live in!
Due to their amazing and skillful construction we sold the home after 5 years, when we sold the home it sold for 50% more than our overall purchase price. This speaks volumes for the work they produce! Thank you Mike we loved that home and best of luck in all your future projects!!!

George F. Norwood, MA
-We bought a run-down, ranch-style house and went with Michael and team to turn into a 3-story forever home. They did an amazing job building our home to our specifications and worked closely with us during the project to make all the best decisions. We couldn't be happier with how the home turned out and are already seeing major savings in our utility bills due to how energy-efficient it was designed. Highly recommend!

Mike M. Braintree, MA
-My wife and I purchased a home from MKE Development in 2012, it was a complete gut job and it was really one of the most amazing properties we had looked at. (Our search took us from Medford to Braintree over 150 open houses in 6 months) The best thing about this property is it was under a builder warranty. What I didn't know was that Michael and Kathy would just check in from time to time to see how everything was going on Middle street. They became friends and were people that I would reach out to for questions like how do I turn off the hose water in the winter, which was followed up by Michael showing up at the door saying let me help you. I can't say enough of how much we enjoyed living in that house and how much better I slept at night knowing if I had a question or an issue the builder and his wife were happy to help.

Patty W. Attleboro, MA
-What a great experience we had! Together we marketed and sold 3 condex units in Attleboro. We also had the opportunity to work together on some of his new construction in Braintree, which was gorgeous! Truly a family centered business with a talented team!

-Michael Egasti is a superior contractor! From design concept to finished product he is creative. professional and diligent. I have worked with him many times over the years and I am always impressed with every one of his homes. His attention to detail is outstanding. His honesty and integrity shows in every project he takes on, from working with homeowners, vendors, other contractors and town officials.

Jeff J., Lebanon, NH & Grantham, NH
-I've had Mike Egasti helping me with my a/v needs since before 2004. I'm very satisfied with their incredible service, incredible response time. Completely without parallel. I wait for good weather when I have to call them because otherwise I know they'd try to get to me in a blizzard. They'd risk their lives to service a customer. Their response time for service and issues is so immediate and total that I know they've dropped everything to assist me. I absolutely recommend Mike & Kathy.

-John R. Saugus, MA
-Mike installed a 50" TV unit in my home alon with all of the speakers and other peripherals. He turned my family room into a wonderful state of the art multimedia room. Mike & Kathy are easy to work with, good communicators, take pride in their work and pay attention to detail. My biggest compliment to them is the fact that after the job was done, Mike was always there to answer my questions. I never felt rushed when I called him with questions. He truly understands the importance of customer service.

A pleasure to do business with.

-Mike & Kathy helped us create an audio video room for our family We were very satisfied with the services they provided. My house is the popular spot for all the teenager to come and watch movies, so I always know where my kids are. Mike & Kathy are quick to respond, although we've had very few issues. I absolutely recommend them. They truly care about customer satisfaction.

Steve K. Cambridge, MA
-Michael and Kathy did a great job with our home theater and whole house audio system. Everything was professionally designed and installed, including some relatively unusual requirements building out our loft space. They installed custom cable channels that matched the decor and everything has been extremely reliable and looks terrific. Many of their wiring and install recommendations have led us to being able to upgrade over time without needing to have additional wiring done. They are flexible and work well with the other sub-contractors involved in the project. We are very satisfied with their services. They give great advice and follow-through with excellent quality work and service. The few issues that we had were taken care of very quickly, mostly same day. I have referred them several times and will continue to do so.
~~~
Ron & Nancy S. Brookline, MA
-We have been beyond satisfied with Mike and Kathy's work, their professionalism, and their attention to our needs. They built a state of the art, incredibly sophisticated media system that is easy enough for our 5-year old to use. They are always quick to respond, and usually get someone over to our house within a matter of hours if an issue arises and are quick to solve any and all our concerns. We have recommended them to numerous people and will continue to do so as we were so pleased with their work. We also used them to build us our $100,000 dedicated media room because we were so satisfied with their past work.
