Anthony Crugnale

Anthony Crugnale's record here is fourteen building permits and nothing else. No customer has written a word about him on BuildZoom, so the score that page displays is built from permits and licences rather than from anyone who hired him. What the permits show is a builder more than a remodeler. BuildZoom's own read of the last four years counts three new constructions and concludes that new construction is mostly what he does, and the filings bear that out at two very different scales. On the large end: an 80-unit podium steel and wood-frame apartment building at 1 Newport Ave in Quincy, permitted at $10,337,546 in 2020 with a $2,000,000 foundation permit and a $100,000 demolition before it; a $3,177,292 conversion of a Maynard school into twelve apartments in 2024, masonry repairs and new windows included; and a 2010 certificate of occupancy for a 137-unit residential, retail, garage and health-club building at 45 Province St in Boston. On the homeowner end, the work is in Attleboro: three new single-family houses permitted in 2023 between $175,000 and $280,000, and two new two-family homes permitted in July 2025 at $309,500 and $313,000. Three more permits sit at his own Harwich address — additions and renovations in 2018 and 2019, then a pool house and equipment shed in 2021. The typical permit runs about $280,000. Two Newton-area filings are worth reading before you call. A January 2019 permit at 190 Mt Vernon St in West Newton, covering a strip and re-roof plus 29 windows, three skylights, two sliding doors and deck repair, is marked permit revoked with a status of rejected and annotated 2/5/21 change of contractor. A 2019 permit at 156 Grant Ave in Newton Center carries the same change-of-contractor annotation, and a $250,000 full gut renovation at that address sits at status triage. On licensing, BuildZoom shows Massachusetts construction supervisor licence #CS-106328 as verified and active as of July 2026. The same page shows no home improvement contractor registration, which is the credential Massachusetts requires for nonstructural residential home improvement work, and none of it was checked against the state registry here. For a new build or a whole-house project, the permits are the real evidence and they point at ground-up construction rather than kitchen-and-bath work. Ask him directly about the two change-of-contractor permits, and confirm his registrations with the state yourself before signing.
