Verified record
DMS Painting and Carpentry, based in Rockland, does exterior work including fence painting — but the public record raises real concerns before hiring. In a 2023 review, one homeowner described putting down a substantial deposit for a fence-painting job, then hearing nothing back on any channel — phone, email, text, the works — after July 7th, with the job never done. A second 2023 review described a similar pattern, warning that a deposit paid upfront was not returned and urging customers to have the contractor front materials rather than pay ahead of the work. The company's BBB profile backs up that picture: a D- grade tied to two filed complaints the business did not respond to, and no BBB accreditation. Google shows a 2.6-star average from a small handful of ratings. Given this pattern, anyone considering DMS should avoid paying a deposit before work starts and get everything in writing.
I didn’t use him but my mother did. He robbed her he will take your money and run if you use him make him front the materials and don’t give a deposit
Has substantial deposit for fence painting and has disappeared. Address, phone, email, text, app going unanswered since July 7th. Would not recommend.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from DMS painting. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
Finished floor area of the rooms in scope — not wall area.
