DG Mace Construction

Dana Mace has been building in Marblehead since 1978 — BBB dates the sole proprietorship to January of that year and lists exactly one employee, the owner himself. Porch puts the same 118 Jersey Street address behind a 14-town North Shore service area. The permitted work is small and local. BuildZoom's database holds 11 permits for the business: a window-and-clapboard swap, deck railings on two levels, a front stoop and a bulkhead rebuilt to code, and one interior remodel at $34,400. That is the shape of it — repairs and single-room work on older Marblehead houses rather than gut renovations. Customer numbers are thin. Porch carries a 5.00 average across five ratings, and the BBB profile is an A+ without accreditation. BuildZoom lists a Massachusetts construction supervisor licence and a home improvement contractor registration issued in November 2025, alongside four Newton entries it marks unverified with December 2022 expiries — those are the directory's records, not confirmations. Worth a call for exterior repairs and carpentry on a period house. Ask for the licence numbers so you can check them yourself, and for a couple of recent Marblehead references, since there is little written customer history to go on.
