Verified record
Carlos Semedo runs CS Remodeling out of Brockton, work that ranges from deck rebuilds to full bathroom overhauls, with a Thumbtack track record of 4.8 stars across 46 ratings. The thing that keeps showing up in what people who hired him actually describe is decks. In a 2020 review, a homeowner had an existing composite deck redone in redwood and said Carlos caught and fixed framing problems along the way. A 2018 review credits him with framing a new deck from scratch, and in 2023 a customer called him in to finish a deck another contractor had walked away from, then had him re-pour the concrete steps too. He also takes on bigger interior jobs: 2023 reviews describe him redoing an entire master bathroom, including the backsplash and fixtures, alongside smaller work like floorboards and lighting. Thumbtack lists him with 14 years in business and a background check on file for Semedo himself, completed in January 2022. Worth knowing before booking: the written reviews on file run from 2018 to 2023, real and specific but not recent, so it's worth confirming current availability and getting a written scope before starting. For a deck rebuild or a one-person-run bathroom redo, this is a reasonable call; pin down the timeline and materials up front.

Carlos is awesome. We had a deck being built but the contractor had something come up and couldn’t finish it. He came out right away, gave us a great price and finished it up in a week. He even helped us re-pour our concrete steps and it turned out great. We will definitely be using him in the future for our bathroom remodel.
Carlos is seriously amazing, a jack of all trades and very skilled and knowledgeable. He was eager to help me with putting up floorboards, re-did the back splash in kitchen, re-did my entire master bathroom and helped put everything up, including lights! He is so kind, professional and hard working! Can’t thank him enough for all his hard work!
Carlos is a master of his craft. We had an existing composite deck that was redone using redwood. He had many good design ideas and is great to work with. He found some issues with the existing framing and corrected them. I feel he is very honest and is by far the best experience we have ever had with a contractor. He is a very hard worker and always let us know when he would be working on our project. We recommend him with 5 stars!
Carlos and his team are some of the hardest working, polite gentleman I’ve ever encountered! We received other quotes that were both similar and when Carlos and Adilson came out they quoted with such accuracy that by the time they had drawn a plan their quote included a bathroom at the same price as the other two without. They redid our entire main flooring in real hardwood, full paint, added a bedroom and bathroom. Carlos ensured everything we chose was of high quality, and drove throughout 3 counties to get the specific hardwood we wanted and to check the quality of a tub we found on KSL. Adilson is a master plumber and he showed us how to better utilize the small space we had for a bathroom by moving the plumbing around; and then moved it around again to fit a tub we found. His finished product looks like something out of a magazine. Their painter was incredibly articulate with his taping and covering that we have decided the ability to know how to time, tape and cover, is equal to the paint itself and can create beautiful contrast. He used high tech equipment and our house was literally airbrushed. There are a few language barriers so my only constructive advice is to make sure Carlos is aware of any details you wish his workers to know. We will be using them again to add an addition to our home and I couldn’t give a higher recommendation. Thank you Carlos and team!
Carlos was great! He built the frame for our new deck and was very professional, hardworking and he definitely knew what he was doing. I'd hire him again in a heartbeat.
