CRW Carpentry LLC

CRW Carpentry is Charles Warren's Danvers shop — the carpenter-builder you call to frame a deck, lay a floor, hang new windows and doors, or finish a basement. Warren started the company in 2010 and still runs it. The credentials are in order: its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, #176859, is active on the state registry, and the Better Business Bureau has carried the company as accredited with an A+ grade since 2012. Its stated range runs from custom carpentry and flooring to sheds, stairs, and kitchen, bathroom and basement remodeling across the North Shore. One wrinkle before you call: the company's own website disagrees with itself about its age — the About page gives 2010 as the year established, while the homepage advertises over 25 years of experience, and parts of the site still carry unfilled template text. 2010 is the only concrete date it offers. A sensible call for a North Shore homeowner who wants one registered carpenter-builder for a deck, a basement finish or a kitchen. Ask Warren directly how many years he has been building and who does the work, get the scope and payment schedule in writing, and ask for a certificate of insurance.
