Company History
The Wiese Company was established in 1992 by Ray Wiese, who today serves as president and chief designer. Wiese-a Certified Remodeler, Certified Kitchen Designer and Certified Bath Designer-is personally involved in each design. Ray is also a past-president of the local chapter of the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (EM-NARI) and currently serves as the Chairman of the Ethics Committee of EM-NARI.
"When I founded the company, I knew that it was important to hire skilled trades-people, as I was not skilled enough to meet my own standards," says Ray with a laugh.
Today, The Wiese Company proudly employs quality-minded individuals with extensive experience in the remodeling industry. Our team comprises Certified Kitchen Designers (CKD), Bath Designers (CBD), Kitchen & Bath Remodelers (CKBR), Remodelers (CR) and Lead Carpenters (CLC). The company's strength is in the combination of individual skill sets, offering our clients the best of each person's ability, at a value. With a stronghold in Wellesley, Weston, Wayland, Newton and neighboring communities, the company's excellent reputation is illustrated by the large percentage of business resulting from client referrals.

Customer Feedback Summary
Recent Reviews & Published Comments
Overall, the Wiese company does quality work in a timely manner. Our home is a nearly 100 year old brick tudor with some unique architectural details, such as gumwood wainscoting, molding, picture rail, and beams. They understood the importance of renovating and restoring these irreplaceable details and did an amazing job on the wood in the house. The initial schedule was essentially adhered to from the time the demolition began to the day we were able to move back home. That's pretty remarkable. Subs showed up when they were supposed to and completed the work according to their planned schedule. There were elements of working with the Wiese company that were frustrating; most notably ongoing communication with the project manager. Our job was, perhaps, unusual and more complicated than the norm in that we were asking them to recreate the house as it was before our fire, rather than have them design a remodel. Some of the communication issues stemmed from that, others from key staff turnover, but primarily from the job manager having difficulty being appropriately assertive and organized in his communications. I would recommend the Wiese Company to anyone needing high quality contracting.
I feel as if Ray is very much a man of his word and is committed to the jobs his company takes on. He takes feedback well and follows though.
I was extremely impressed at the way the Wiese company managed all the subs. There were teams of people working on our job essentially every day, all day. This kind of steady reliability is rare in contracting and very much appreciated to keep the job on track.
We had a wonderful experience with The Wiese Company and are thrilled with our newly remodeled master bathroom. Everyone at Wiese was extremely professional, punctual, and nice to work with. They take pride in their work, have great attention to detail and went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. We will definitely engage The Wiese Company for future projects.
They did an excellent job. It was a pleasure working with Terry, Alexi and Lisa.
The Wiese Company is an exceptional operation that delivers on the things that matter most to us when considering a home project; honesty, reliability, timeliness, cleanliness, and quality of work. We first used them a couple years ago for a major renovation to our home and didn't think twice about using them again when we decided to redo our master bath. They are a true pleasure to work with.
I recommend you every chance I get. I should also note that a friend recently told me she was at a party and got into a discussion about home renovation projects. She said that two of the people in the conversation had used The Wiese Company and both said they would use them again in a second. No one else in the conversation said they would use their contractor again.
We truly appreciate your commitment to cleanliness.
It was an overall very pleasant experience. I didn't expect it to be that pleasant due to past experiences. The whole team worked well together. I would definitely recommend them and use them in the future.
We plan to move north for retirement. In my dreams I now imagine moving my dream kitchen to Maine with us. I don't know how I will bear leaving it behind when the time comes.
Too bad I can't give a 10!
Punchlist! Not only did they finish a week ahead of schedule I don't think there were even 5 items on our punchlist. It's been one and a half years and absolutely nothing has fallen apart, cracked or has gone wrong in any way.
The best money we've every spent on our home and we've done quite a bit of renovation.
The employees we're incredibly polite and respectful, including the subcontracts who worked on the project.
I was amazed at the end of each day at the cleanliness of the job site. I found Tom at the end of one day staying late to clean up some dust and dirt that had fallen from the ceiling onto my washer and dryer. I could tell in was not in him to leave a job site any way but clean and safe.
I really appreciated Ray's willingness to listen to any ideas or suggestions we had. He never said no right away even if he wasn't familiar with what we were asking. He allows time for a reasonable give-and-take between the client and himself.
Thank heavens for Ray. One of the things we made clear was that we wanted Ray to limit our choices and I'm so glad we did. There were so many choices to make and so little time. Ray spent enough time getting to know us in the beginning that he was able to narrow down the choices he brought to us.
I love, love, love my kitchen. It seems hugh and I have so much storage space that I actually have extra space.I have never enjoy cooking more. Every time I cook I'm so grateful that we found the Weiss Team.Even our best friends love cooking in our kitchen! So much that they call and say we're bringing dinner but we're cooking it at your house! I can have 3-4 people working in the kitchen and we never run into each other. Even my son who is a builder commented on how easy it was to cook together in our new kitchen.I love that I'm no longer isolated in the kitchen while our guests are in the living room. Now that the space is open to the dining area everyone hangs out at the breakfast bar.
Superb, beautiful, craftsmanship down to every little detail. Tom's pride in his work shows up in my splendid kitchen.
The staff are calm and even-tempered. It didn't matter what came up or what questions we had, they took time to answer them in a comprehensive manner. If they didn't have answers that day they did the research and got back to us promptly.Like when I insisted the double French doors to the deck open out. Ray could have made me feel like I had no idea what I was talking about. Instead he did the research and came back to us excited by what he had found to give us what we wanted.
I can't remember a time when Ray took more than a day to get back to us. It's amazing how much personal time Ray gives his clients.We had been thinking about a vaulted ceiling but the cost would not have been worth the value. Ray didn't give up, by angling the ceiling up slightly on each side we have the feel of the vaulted ceiling without the cost. The square feet of my kitchen didn't change but it feels twice the size!
I really appreciated how Ray had all the costs laid out from the very beginning and every time we made a change we all signed a change form so there were never any questions. I felt Ray always gave us a choice from low cost to moderate to most expensive.
Actually finished a week ahead of schedule!
We had seen Ray's work in a friend's home and even though it seemed Ray could give me a dream kitchen I'm not sure I really believed it. I never really thought I had the space for a working kitchen.AlI can say is I why did I ever wait so long! I guess if it meant getting the Wiese Team then it it was worth the wait.Ray spent so much time with us in the planning phase so he would really understand what we needed and what we wanted. He didn't rush us but he seemed to know when to give us a little push. He was incredibly patient with my compulsive organization and research. And my husband was thrilled to have Ray be the middle man.
Thrilled with the whole process and look forward to further projects
We couldn't of been happier. It was a great experience. They got it done in a timely manner and I would recommend them to anyone who asks.
The entire staff at the Wiese Company as well as their subcontractors were a pleasure to deal with. Always hlepful and professional. An excellent team. We had a special need to get our renovations done in a timely manner. We were doing renovations that would make the house handicap accessible so that one of its occupants could leave the nursing home and finally come home.to stay.Ray Wiese made sure that things were done on time. In the design phase he went above and beyond to make Stan feel like part of the process. He made several visits to the nursing home to get Stan's input. He even brought samples of products to be used. in the job. The new space is beautiful and a safe place for Stan. It meets all of his needs. Thank you Wiese Company for being so terrific! We really appeciate the job that you did. Stan is so happy to be home in his beautiful new space. .
Matt Coady was the lead carpentar on our job. He was great!. He was there every morning and made sure that things got done on schedule and with minimal disrutpion to the rest of the house.
Always!!
