Douglas G Dubin Construction

Douglas G Dubin Construction is a Swampscott, Massachusetts remodeling contractor, and the strongest thing on its record is a credential rather than a review: the Massachusetts registry verifies home improvement contractor registration 113541 as active, held in the name Douglas G Dubin. BuildZoom's independent check agrees, and it separately lists an active construction supervisor licence for one- and two-family dwellings, CSFA-059622 — a construction supervisor licence alongside an HIC registration is the normal shape for a builder doing structural work as well as finish work, not a discrepancy. The work itself is residential remodeling across the range: kitchen and bathroom remodels, basement and whole-home renovations, additions, finish carpentry, drywall repair, and window and door replacement. Sixteen permitted projects are recorded against the business, which is a meaningful volume for a contractor of this size and indicates work pulled properly under permit rather than done off the books. What is missing is any customer voice. No review exists on any source checked, so nothing here speaks to how the projects were run day to day, whether schedules held, or how change orders and problems were handled. The score displayed on BuildZoom is calculated by that platform from licence and permit data, not from customer sentiment, and should not be read as a rating. For a North Shore homeowner, the licensing position is genuinely reassuring — an active HIC registration is what gives you access to the state Guaranty Fund, and the construction supervisor licence covers structural work. Verify both numbers yourself at the Office of Consumer Affairs and Business Regulation and the Department of Public Safety, ask for two or three recent references you can call, and get the payment schedule and change-order process written into the contract before work starts.
