Star Remodeling builds on the long-standing reputation of Star Construction Company, continuing a remodeling legacy that began in 1958.

The company was founded by Michael “Mike” Caravas, a Greek immigrant with a background in painting and decorating. Mike began the business as Star Builders & Painters in Burlington, Massachusetts. The company later moved to Woburn in the 1960s, relocated to West Newbury in the 1990s, and is now based in Groveland, Massachusetts.

Over the decades, the company’s work evolved to include custom homes, residential and community development, distressed-property renovation, and residential remodeling. Its name also changed as the business developed, operating at different times as Star Builders, Star Construction, Star Remodeling, and eventually Star Construction Company, Inc.

Today, that history continues through Star Remodeling, with a focus on kitchens, bathrooms, additions, ADUs, in-law suites, garage conversions, porches, and whole-home remodeling throughout Groveland and surrounding North Shore communities.

Bob Williams of Star Remodeling

After Mike’s passing, company leadership continued under Bob Williams, who had worked alongside Mike for many years. Bob began as a summer laborer while still in high school, and the working relationship gradually developed into a formal business partnership. In the late 1970s, Mike and Bob determined that incorporating the company would provide a stronger foundation for its customers, employees, and future growth.

Bob continues to lead the company today. With the support of experienced employees, trusted subcontractors and vendors, industry mentors, and generations of homeowners, the company has grown into an award-winning remodeling business known for construction knowledge, craftsmanship, and long-term customer relationships.

I met with Bob (and Kevin) to better understand the scope of work Star Construction does. I was impressed with his knowledge of construction techniques, building materials, and remodeling trends. I would highly recommend Star Construction!

Bob is always easy to reach and a pleasure to work with. I would recommend Star Construction in a heartbeat!

I am not a customer of Star Construction however I operate a Handyman business and have had the opportunity to work with Bob and his crew on several occasions. What I saw while working for Bob was impressive. Professional, knowledgeable, proficient and highly experienced are a combination that is rare to find these days. When I encounter a job that is too big for my small one man operation I refer my customers to Star Construction since I will not recommend anyone that does less than great work.
