Capital Construction Contracting

Capital Construction Contracting works out of Dorchester's edge of Boston, taking on the big exterior jobs — new roofs, siding, decks, windows and doors — for homes across the area. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration is active, and BBB rates it an A+ accredited business. The written record runs deep — 225 reviews since 2021 across ten platforms, with a base rating of 4.4★ from 335 Google reviews and similar numbers on Angi (4.5★, 109 ratings) and Best Pick Reports (4.1★, 145 ratings). On the actual construction, the story that repeats is finished work that holds up: a 2024 review described a leaking roof replaced with "no dust or debris" left behind, and a 2023 account of a 20-year-old roof recalled a crew that worked through 90°F heat and left an "excellent cleanup." Deck and porch work draws the same kind of praise — in a 2022 review, one homeowner called a new deck "high quality and perfectly built to our specifications," and another described a porch rebuild and full exterior-trim replacement on a century-old Victorian that kept the original crown-molding look using new PVC materials. Before any of that construction happens, though, there's a sales visit — and it's where a meaningful share of the negative reviews live. A recent review described a salesperson who wouldn't stop pressuring the homeowner after being asked to; a 2024 review said a rep claimed rotted rafters made a new roof necessary, a claim two independent inspectors later found no basis for; and a 2023 review called a $22,000 deck-repair estimate — four to seven times what other contractors quoted for the same job — a scam. A separate cluster of complaints is about what happens after signing: a 2024 review described an 18-month wait on a deposit amid "terrible efforts" to pull permits despite being charged a permitting fee, and a Best Pick Reports review updated in May 2026 said follow-up emails about permits went unanswered for weeks. Capital is a reasonable call for a straightforward roof, siding, or deck replacement — the finished work is what draws the strongest praise. Get any inspection findings and the estimate in writing before signing anything, ask who's pulling permits and when, and don't let a sales visit push a same-day decision.
