Alan Hayes has been swinging a hammer in Beverly long enough that one client, writing in 2021, described working with him on 'many projects, large and small' over the previous 14 years. He runs a carpentry and building outfit — Alan F. Hayes Carpenter Builder — out of Fitzgerald Way, and the permit history backs up the tenure: 51 permitted jobs, mostly gut kitchen and bathroom rebuilds, dormers, decks, siding and a chimney rebuild, spread across Beverly, Marblehead, Middleton, Topsfield and Rowley. The one written review on file, from May 2021, calls him hard-working and extremely detail-oriented, and says the client had a bigger renovation lined up with him for that fall — the kind of repeat-client relationship that a review count alone doesn't capture. The permit trail is the deeper evidence here: a typical project value around $82,000 points to real gut renovations and additions rather than small repairs. His Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration (HIC #148598) is active. BuildZoom also lists him as holding an active Massachusetts construction supervisor license for one- and two-family homes. For finish carpentry, framing, cabinetry, additions, or a full kitchen or bath gut rebuild, this is a long-tenured, permit-documented builder — worth asking for recent references directly, since only one written review sits behind that much documented work.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Alan F Hayes Carpenter Builder. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
A typical single-level deck is 12×16 — about 200 sq ft.

Have worked with Alan on many projects, large and small, over past 14 years. He is hard working, extremely detail oriented, and a pleasure to work with. We've got him lined up for a big renovation this fall and can't wait to see his fabulous work again.
