Edward Teed

Filed as a roofer, but the permits tell a wider story. Edward Teed works as an owner-operator out of 21 Alice Rd in Randolph, and among his 17 permitted jobs are a $525,000 new 3,900-square-foot house in Norwell and a $220,000 commercial tenant fit-up in Braintree — work well beyond stripping and re-shingling. The re-roofs are still the bread and butter, at a typical permit value around $12,000, and there is one structural job on the list that shows the range: a $58,000 Randolph project jacking the front of a house back to level, repairing walls and ceilings, and replacing the front door and bow window. Only one permit is in Methuen — a $21,000 commercial roof replacement on Haverhill St back in 2022 — so this is a South Shore operation that has worked north occasionally, not a Methuen-area contractor. What is entirely absent is any customer voice. BuildZoom has never received a review for him, and no other site carries one either. The score of 99 on that profile is calculated from permit and licence records, not from anything a homeowner said, so it should not be read as a rating. The licences need a direct check. BuildZoom lists three records: a construction supervisor licence, CS-095961, and a home improvement contractor registration, 179133, both under its own 'Verified License' badge, alongside a SECOND and different home improvement contractor number, 156663, marked inactive with the state noted as having cancelled it at one point. Two different HIC numbers on one person is the kind of thing a directory gets wrong, and none of it was confirmed against the state registry here. Look up both numbers on the Office of Consumer Affairs and Business Regulation site, and the supervisor licence with the Department of Public Safety, before signing anything. Permit volume is thin and slowing — four jobs in 2024, one in 2025. If you are considering him, ask directly for recent addresses you can drive past and for references you can call, because nothing published will do that work for you.
