Highlights
- Quick turnaround — 2021 shed finished in two weeks, not months
- Matched repair — 2021 pergola beam replaced to match the original
- Owner involved — 2021 customer cited questions answered throughout
- Local anchor — Marblehead base and chamber of commerce member
- Dated record — every written account was posted in 2021
- Very thin — five Google ratings and three comments in total
- Single source — no directory, licence or third-party listing corroborates it
- Narrow evidence — only a shed, a pergola beam and a painted door described
A shed delivered in two weeks when the going lead time was three to six months — that is the detail that stands out in what customers wrote about Boston Building Solutions. The July 2021 homeowner who described it also had the company paint their front door, and called the rate reasonable. The outfit works out of Marblehead and is a member of the town's chamber of commerce. The work customers describe is structural carpentry on the outside of a house: in a June 2021 review, a homeowner said Franz and a crew member pulled a broken pergola beam and installed its replacement inside a few hours, matching the original closely enough that the repair disappeared. Another 2021 customer left only a line — an excellent company to work with. The honest caveat is the size and age of that record. Google shows five stars from five ratings, and every written account dates from the first half of 2021. Nothing has been published since, so nothing here speaks to how the company runs today, who is on the crew, or what its current lead times look like. If you need an outbuilding, a pergola repair, or exterior carpentry on a Marblehead-area house, it is worth a call — ask for recent references and current scheduling, since the public trail stops five years back.

I cannot say enough good things about the quality of the shed and the professionalism of this company…From start to finish, the process took only two weeks. Anybody who has been looking for a shed lately knows that the lead time can be well over 3 to 6 months. So for us to get such a well-built, quality structure in only a couple of weeks time was a very pleasant surprise. The owner took the time to answer all of our questions and provided us with impeccable service at a reasonable rate. We also had them paint our front door and we love the new look. Would highly recommend to anyone! Thank you, Boston Building Solutions.

Franz came out and helped with a broken pergola beam project that I've been looking to address for years. Within just a few hours, he and a member of his team were able to remove the broken beam and install the new one. The finished look was a spot on match and I couldn't be happier with the end result! Highly recommend BBS for quality of work, professionalism and being timely!
