CURCIO BUILDERS

Curcio Builders is a one-person, frame-to-finish general contracting outfit run out of Newton Center by owner Jeramy Curcio. BBB lists it as a sole proprietorship with one employee and a long track record, though BBB and BuildZoom don't agree on exactly how long — 34 years by BBB's count, 24 by BuildZoom's. Either way, the business has been doing framing, new construction, additions, garages, and cabinet work in the area for a long time. The clearest signal of the quality of that work is a 2022 Houzz review describing a garage and elevator built into a Victorian Queen Anne — the reviewer called it remarkable and said the crew was a pleasure to work with. BuildZoom's permit-history profile backs that up with scale rather than reviews: a BZ Score of 101 and 40 shown projects, describing the business's focus as high-end residential construction and renovation. On paper, the licensing looks solid. BuildZoom lists two active Massachusetts licenses for the company — a Home Improvement Contractor registration and a Construction Supervisor license — and BBB gives it an A+ rating, though the BBB page notes the business is not itself BBB-accredited. BuildZoom also carries an older Newton license covering general and electrical contracting that it marks unverified, with an expiration it last recorded as December 2022. What's worth asking about directly: BBB's profile flags two unread licensing-related alerts without showing what they say, and the public review record is thin — just the one Houzz review, even across four directory profiles. For a custom framing, addition, or high-end renovation project in the Newton area, the permit history and the one detailed review both point toward careful, well-regarded work; it's worth confirming current licensing status and asking for references directly, given how little first-hand feedback is public.
