# AVERY'S GENERAL CONSTRUCTION

**Trade:** Roofing · **Address:** 55 Spencer St, Lynn, MA 01905, USA · **Phone:** (781) 479-6822 · **Website:** https://averysconstruction.com/ · **Languages:** English

**Rating: 3.6/5** (low confidence) — from 4 reviews across 3 sources.

## The honest read

AVERY'S GENERAL CONSTRUCTION is a Lynn roofing outfit run by a crew leader named Sam, taking on full roof jobs alongside skylight repairs and gutters.

In an April 2025 review, a customer had a small standing seam roof installed over a new front-door overhang and called the attention to detail fabulous. Older reviews describe similar full-scope work: in a 2021 review, a homeowner who'd spent months hunting for a reliable roofer described Sam's crew repairing a leaking, damaged skylight and installing gutters along a long wall, and a 2024 review describes a full roof job the customer called professional and courteous throughout.

Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor license is active, and Google shows 5 stars across 8 ratings.

The written record is thin — four reviews spread across four years — so it's worth confirming current availability and getting a written scope before booking, but nothing on file raises a concern.

**Strengths:**
- Full roof installs — customers cite a standing-seam job and full replacements
- Named crew lead — reviewers repeatedly credit Sam for professional work
- Skylight & gutter repairs — praised for solving a stubborn leak
