Verified record
Argus Construction Corporation is a Bedford contractor with Peter Salem listed as owner and 16 years in business. A Cambridge Civic Journal report says Argus led construction of Triangle Park in East Cambridge, giving the company a documented public construction project. The customer history is thin and dated: Google shows one written review from August 2017, and that reviewer wrote, "Worst company in the world so far." Google currently shows 3.7 stars from six ratings, while BBB lists the company as Not Rated and accredited. Argus may be relevant for larger construction work, but the dated negative review deserves a direct explanation before hiring. Ask for current references, recent comparable projects, a written scope, and the responsible project manager.
