Verified record
- Not rated by the BBB
Highlights
- Additions and conversions — permits centre on adding rooms and living space
- Residential throughout — eleven permitted jobs, all houses and dwellings
- Licence list unreliable — four HIC numbers listed for one person
- One registration cancelled — HIC 209031 recorded as no longer active
- Profile merges people — seven owners listed, including another company
- No customer reviews — BuildZoom's page carries none at all
- Score is not a rating — the 99 comes from permits, not customers
Eleven permitted jobs, and the pattern in them is space-making: a second-floor addition in Methuen carrying two bedrooms and a bathroom, a two-storey kitchen addition in Wakefield, an accessory-dwelling conversion in Falmouth with its stairs and roof rebuilt, kitchen and master-bathroom remodels in Brookline and Chestnut Hill. The base on file is 51 Mechanic St in Bellingham, and BuildZoom puts the trading history at about nine years. Nobody has written about the work. His BuildZoom page carries no reviews at all, and the score of 99 displayed there is assembled from permit volume and licence records — not a rating, and not something a homeowner should read as one. The bigger thing to know is that this listing cannot be trusted on credentials. BuildZoom stacks six licence records under two types: two different construction supervisor numbers, CS-119304 and CS-110148, and four different home improvement contractor numbers — 209273, issued in July 2025; 192455, marked 'License Not Verified' yet 'Active' with an expiration of July 2026; 186377; and 209031, recorded as cancelled. One person does not hold four HIC registrations. The page's own team block compounds it, listing seven owners — Claudemir De Souza, five near-identical spellings of a Fernando Souza, and a separate painting company — which reads as several licence-holders collapsed into one profile. So treat the permit history as the useful part and the licence list as noise. If you are weighing him for an addition or a kitchen, ask which registration number is actually his, check that single number directly with the Office of Consumer Affairs and the Department of Public Safety, and ask for a few recent homeowners you can call, because there is nothing public to read.
