A Marshfield contractor with 20 Google ratings averaging 5.0 is being called for substantial home work, not just isolated repairs. Doherty Brothers Contracting Incorporated says it handles South Shore Massachusetts residential and commercial construction, custom homes, additions, remodeling, roofing, siding, drainage, decks, kitchens, bathrooms, and finish work; its site lists 2000 as the year of establishment.
The recent customer comments are unusually specific. In September 2026, a homeowner praised a kitchen project, knowledgeable crew, and quick fixes when problems arose. A December 2025 review describes high-quality work delivered promptly, while an October 2025 homeowner says communication and scheduling were easy and the work was precise and professional. Another October 2025 review describes transforming an unfinished basement into a finished renovation, with the crew showing up on time, working hard, respecting the home, and communicating clearly.
The work mix is broad but still concrete: customers describe a full dormer and second-floor renovation, a basement conversion, bathrooms and kitchens, decks, doors, sunrooms, roofing help, flooring, trim, stairs, and exterior work. A 2024 homeowner specifically praised responsiveness, communication, and professional knowledge, and another called the pricing fair and transparent.
Before booking, pin down the exact scope and permit responsibility for a multi-trade project. The Massachusetts HIC license 191365 is registry-verified active, with Matthew J Doherty named as the registry holder; BuildZoom also lists a Massachusetts construction-supervisor license, but its directory numbers remain directory claims. BuildZoom shows 20 permitted projects and a score of 105, while the company site reports 282 completed projects—different measures that should not be treated as interchangeable.
This looks like a fit for homeowners planning a coordinated remodel, addition, or exterior renovation who want one contractor managing multiple trades. Confirm the written scope, allowances, schedule, and which license or permit applies to the particular work before signing.
