Verified record
Dogtown Home Improvement & Painting works out of Somerset, and the only public trace of it is word of mouth. In a January 2015 neighborhood referral thread, someone asking whether anyone could recommend a person to put up sheetrock was pointed to Dogtown, with Steve or Lynne Arruda given as the people to call. That referral, now more than a decade old, is the whole of the written record. It says a neighbor was willing to put their name to the company for drywall work in the Fall River area at that time, and it says nothing about how the business runs today. Anyone considering them is effectively starting from scratch. Ask for two or three recent local jobs and go look at them, confirm who would actually be doing the work, and get the Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration and proof of insurance in writing before any money changes hands.
