Fixer-Upper

Hey all. I know I don't post or comment much, but I do read, and I'm coming to y'all for help.

I grew up in Davis Sq., and until recently, my mom lived in the house we bought in 1967. She's now in a retirement home and the care and maintenence of the house is my responsibility. Which is OK with me, since I've been wanting to update the house for years...

Anyway, I'm asking for help on any recomendations for contractors. There is some MAJOR work to be done there, since there hasn't been much work done there lately, and the little work done, has been patchwork, IMO.

Ideally, I would like a contractor that would oversea plumbing, electrical work, complete overhaul of a heating system (installing two new ones, and removing the old ASBESTOS boiler from c. before dirt.) and general construction.

I realize this is not a small job, but I'm clueless as to who to turn to, and figured you guys would know/have some rec's. It's better than me going in blindly.

Any help much appreciated.

Think yelp but a pay service and for contractors and the like.
