# David A Bosworth Co Inc **Trade:** General Contractor / Remodeling · **Address:** 15 Rocsam Park Rd, Braintree, MA 02184, USA · **Phone:** (781) 843-6060 · **Website:** https://dabco.com/ · **Languages:** English **Rating: 2.9/5** (low confidence) — from 1 reviews across 4 sources. A 0–5 star rating built from what customers and the public say (every review and mention weighted by where it was posted, how old, how detailed and how credible it is, shrunk toward a 3.5★ baseline when evidence is thin) plus what the record shows (Reddit recommendations or warnings, a registry-verified licence, how recently they were reviewed, customer work photos, BBB grade, negative news, a revoked licence). Positive record counts only as far as the reviews have earned it; penalties count in full. Confidence describes how much weighted evidence stands behind the number, never the number itself: low when fewer than about five normal reviews' worth of weight (or mentions only) support it, medium up to about twenty, high beyond that across at least two sources. An operator flag for a suspicious review pattern caps a rating at 3.5★ and marks it low. ## The honest read David A. Bosworth Co. is a Braintree site-work and utility contractor that traces itself back to 1959, when brothers David and Walter Bosworth started the business — it was incorporated five years later, in 1964. The company says it's still run in that same family spirit, doing sitework, excavation, underground utility installation, paving, and snow removal for commercial, residential, and institutional clients. There isn't much written about them yet: one Google review, from 2022, simply called the service excellent. The company also carries two separate Google Business listings, each with only a handful of ratings — 4.3 stars from 7, and 5 stars from 3 — samples too small to lean on either way. One thing worth asking about directly: its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration (HIC 200773) shows up on the state registry but currently reads expired, so it's worth confirming current status and insurance before signing anything. **Strengths:** - Sole Google review — called service excellent in 2022 - Long-running family firm — self-described roots to 1959 **Concerns:** - Expired HIC registration — state registry lists it lapsed **Where sources disagree:** - Google shows two separate business listings for the company with differing ratings — 4.3★ from 7 ratings and 5★ from 3 ratings — both appearing to represent the same business. ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - Self-reported as founded in 1959 by brothers David and Walter Bosworth, incorporated in 1964. _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](https://dabco.com) — “Company history (self-reported): Established in 1959 by brothers David and Walter Bosworth and incorporated in 1964.” - Describes itself as a family-owned business continuing the founder's relationships. _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](http://bosworthcompanies.com) — “Ownership (self-reported): Family-owned business, continuing relationships built by founder David Bosworth.” - [Official Website](https://dabco.com) — “Ownership (self-reported): Founded by brothers David and Walter Bosworth.” - Its Massachusetts HIC registration (200773) is registry-verified but currently shows expired. _(confidence: high)_ - [State License Registry](https://contractorhub.mass.gov/s/hic-contractor-search) — “MA hic license 200773 registry-verified expired — registry holder of record: David A.
