Fontes Home Improvements is a Massachusetts home-improvement business associated with New Bedford and Halifax. Its own website says it has provided construction services since 1993 and lists new homes, windows, doors, kitchens, baths, siding, roofing, and remodeling; review profiles identify Nathan Fontes and describe framing-to-finish work. Homeowners consistently describe finished carpentry and exterior projects in positive terms. In 2025 reviews, customers praised a front porch and door replacement and said they would hire Nathan again, while another said the crew delivered a new deck. In a 2024 review, a homeowner said siding work in Plymouth still looked new five years later and would recommend hiring him again. The available history is favorable but limited to three detailed reviews from 2024–2025, alongside platform profiles showing 5.0 from 24 ratings. There are important details to confirm before booking. BuildZoom lists 10 permits and an inactive Massachusetts license number 116938, while Angi and HomeAdvisor list a different self-reported trade license number, 156512, expiring in 2028. BBB lists the New Bedford LLC as out of business, so confirm which current business entity, address, license, and insurance will appear on a new contract. They may be a good fit for decks, porches, siding, windows, and broader remodeling when the scope is clearly defined. Ask for the current license status, written scope, permit responsibility, insurance certificate, and recent references for the exact work you need.

Nathan did a wonderful job building us a front porch and replacing our door. We would definitely use again. Called back quickly and very professional and easy to speak with.
Nathan and his crew were excellent from start to finish! We love our new deck!!
Nate was a pleasure to work with. Communicated project details along the way. He sided our home in Plymouth on Saquish beach. 5 yrs later the job still looks like new! I would definitely hire him again.
