Golden Lion Custom Carpentry is a Swampscott outfit run by Pablo Deleon, working from a Thumbtack profile that shows 15 hires, three employees and roughly 80 project photos behind a five-star record across 15 ratings. The five written reviews on file, all from 2024, describe a consistent range of finish-carpentry work: in one, a homeowner had doors left improperly hinged after an earlier renovation and called the crew's fix professional and clean; in another, baseboards were pulled ahead of a paint and flooring job, with the work started on a Monday and wrapped within the week. A third customer said Pablo finished a bathroom to their exact vision and was already planning to bring him back for a laundry room. Reviewers from that period kept coming back to the same traits — punctual, communicative, and careful about cleanup. Pablo has completed a Thumbtack background check. One small wrinkle on the profile itself: its overview states 4 years in business while its auto-generated summary says 3 — worth a quick clarifying question, not a red flag. For finish carpentry, trim, door repairs, and small remodel work like a bathroom refresh, this is the range of jobs Golden Lion is built for.
The Golden Lion crew was very professional, punctual, and they did high-quality work - something that I was very worried (about as a person who had never previously used Thumbtack). We did a renovation in our home a few years ago, and the doors in our unit weren’t properly hinged; the fix, though, seemingly minor, would require a detailed fix, and I was truly avoiding hiring someone out of fear that they would worsen the problem. Golden Lion was clear about the work that was required, the crew was exceptionally kind and professional, and they did an excellent job cleaning up after themselves. I’d been scarred by the previous crew that did our initial renovation, but after I saw Golden Lion’s work, my partner and I asked them to return to complete additional work. Thank you, Golden Lion!!! Will hire again!
wonderful to work with Pablo. was extremely prompt and resolved out issue without hesitation. would certainly reach out again for any related need.
This company did very good job and on time. The way customer service was provided was nice. They have good knowledge of what they are doing. I really recommend this company for carpentry and paint work.
Needed our baseboards removed so we could paint before getting our floors done. Pablo was able to get in on a Monday and bang out the project a week later. Very informative, puntual, and lots of attention to detail. Will be working with him again!
I had an excellent experience with this company. They did wonderful work, they finished my bathroom and it looks perfect! They cleaned up after themselves and were very professional making sure my space looked exactly how I had imagined it and more. I’m going to hire this company again to work on my laundry room. I also appreciated the fact that he was honest, on time kept me updated on the progress and very knowledgeable. I recommend this contractor 100%
