Brito Home Improvement

Brito Home Improvement (Brito Group, Inc.) is a family-run fence and deck contractor at 60 Island Street in Lawrence, Massachusetts, rated 4.9 stars from 14 Google reviews and 4.9 from 18 reviews on Angi and HomeAdvisor. Reviewers name Edison, the owner-operator, and a father-and-son team. The company's website lists carpentry, concrete, fencing, painting, flooring, roofing, decks, drywall and kitchen and bathroom remodeling, and the Angi profile claims 26 years of experience in one field and over 40 years in another. The written record runs from 2020 to 2025 and is mostly fences and decks. In an August 2025 review, a homeowner had an aging deck replaced with no sales pitch at a reasonable price; a 2023 customer had a wood deck replaced with composite and said the crew kept them informed, worked through an unexpected issue and cleaned up. Another 2023 reviewer said the father-and-son team rebuilt a deck abandoned mid-job by a previous contractor. Vinyl fence installs, priced from about $3,700 to $9,200 in 2021 reviews, draw the same praise for punctuality and fair pricing, and a 2021 customer described a creative fix for a sloped yard. Reviewers from 2022 through 2024 repeatedly mention that Edison is reachable by phone or text and keeps them updated. The one serious complaint is a 2.5-star Angi review from August 2022 about a wood fence: the customer said a job quoted in cedar was built with cheap pre-made panels on screwed-on rails, posts were set without concrete, the crew left after under four hours and did not return, and only $700 of a $1,000 deposit was refunded; the owner's posted response reads "N/A". Angi and HomeAdvisor both note that licence statements are self-reported and no licence number appears on either profile. Brito is a solid pick for a vinyl or wood fence, a deck rebuild, or a small remodel where you want the owner on the phone. Put the exact materials and post-setting method in the contract, and ask for the HIC registration number before paying a deposit.
