# EAMES CONSTRUCTION INC **Trade:** General Contractor / Remodeling · **Address:** 441 King St, Cohasset, MA 02025, USA · **Phone:** (339) 227-3938 · **Website:** http://www.eamesconstructioninc.com/ · **Languages:** English **Rating: 3.3/5** (low confidence) — from 0 reviews across 5 sources. ## The honest read Eames Construction is a Cohasset general contractor working residential and commercial projects — new construction and remodeling with in-house design, permitting, and scheduling support — and it carries an active Massachusetts home improvement contractor license. Shawn W. Richard is listed as the general contractor and primary contact. The company's marketing claims 38 years in business, but the Better Business Bureau's own record shows it was registered on 1/1/2014 — about 12 years ago — and the two accounts of the firm's age don't line up. Its BBB grade is A+ (it isn't BBB-accredited), and its Houzz profile carries a certification badge and lists a broad South Shore service area, though it has no reviews posted there yet. The one piece of customer feedback on file, a 2022 mention, described the company as prompt, efficient, and detail-oriented on a remodeling project. Given how thin the review history still is and the tenure discrepancy above, it's worth confirming references and how long the current team has actually been doing this work before signing anything. **Strengths:** - Active license — verified Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration - A+ BBB grade — though not BBB-accredited - Houzz Badge — certified profile, full general-contractor scope - 2022 mention — praised as prompt, efficient, detail-oriented **Concerns:** - Tenure conflict — website claims 38 years, BBB shows a 2014 start **Where sources disagree:** - Website claims 38 years in business; BBB's registration record shows the company started 1/1/2014, about 12 years ago. ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - Holds an active Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, verified against the state registry. _(confidence: high)_ - [State License Registry](https://contractorhub.mass.gov/s/hic-contractor-search) — “MA hic license 177607 verified active” - BBB profile shows an A+ grade but the business is not BBB-accredited; it lists a 1/1/2014 start date, about 12 years in business, and 2 employees. _(confidence: high)_ - [Better Business Bureau](https://www.bbb.org/us/ma/cohasset/profile/home-builders/eames-construction-inc-0021-269967) — “Better Business Bureau grade: A+” - [Better Business Bureau](https://www.bbb.org/us/ma/cohasset/profile/home-builders/eames-construction-inc-0021-269967) — “BBB lists Eames Construction Inc.
