## The honest read

DC Construction Services is a Franklin, Massachusetts remodeling contractor run by owner David Campbell, with reviews describing full kitchen and bathroom remodels — marble tile, custom cabinetry, tile work and painting — going back to 2014. Reviewers from that period described the crew as professional, punctual and easy to have in the house, with one homeowner saying they'd used the company across several different projects over two years, and a 2016 review noting the crew subcontracts only electrical and plumbing work, handling the rest in house.

There's also a serious complaint worth knowing about before calling: a detailed account posted on Houzz in 2016 and again on Google in 2019, in nearly identical wording, alleged the contractor was unlicensed despite claiming otherwise, communicated poorly, ran behind schedule, and left a bathroom remodel incomplete and not up to code. The near-identical wording across two platforms and years suggests this is likely one customer's account rather than two separate incidents, but it's a substantive complaint either way.

Massachusetts's own registry currently lists DC Construction Services' home improvement contractor registration (#172334) as expired — worth confirming directly before hiring, especially since one of the written complaints centers on licensing. And the written history itself is dated: every review on file was posted between 2014 and 2019, with nothing more recent to go on.

For a homeowner considering DC Construction, the honest picture is a company with genuinely detailed, positive accounts from a decade ago and one serious, unresolved complaint from the same era — worth verifying current licensing and asking for recent references directly before signing anything.

**Strengths:**
- Detailed remodel praise — 2014-2016 reviews describe full kitchen and bathroom projects done well
- Repeat customer — one reviewer used the crew across several projects over two years
- In-house crews — a 2014 review said only electrical and plumbing were subcontracted

**Concerns:**
- Serious complaint — a detailed account posted in 2016 and 2019 alleged unlicensed, incomplete work
- License expired — the state registry lists the registration as no longer active
- No recent reviews — the written history runs only from 2014 to 2019

**Where sources disagree:**
- A detailed complaint alleging the contractor was unlicensed and left work incomplete appears on Houzz (dated 2016) and Google (dated 2019) in near-identical wording — likely one account posted on two platforms rather than two separate incidents.
