Hal P Abrams Construction

Hal P Abrams is a Revere builder whose public trail is permits rather than reviews — 101 of them in BuildZoom's database, and the spread is what stands out: a $1,100 door removal at one end, a $433,150 East Boston two-family rebuilt with a basement dwelling unit added at the other. Four of those permits landed in the past three years, so the pace reads steady rather than busy. BuildZoom hasn't collected a single customer review for the company. Two licensing details are worth raising before you call. BuildZoom lists a Massachusetts Construction Supervisor licence, CS-036608, and says it checked that licence active in July 2026 — that is the directory's own check, not an independent one, so confirm it yourself with the Department of Public Safety. Separately, BuildZoom shows a Home Improvement Contractor registration, #153530, as inactive and says it was cancelled at some point. In Massachusetts that registration is what backs the Guaranty Fund on non-structural residential work, so ask directly whether it has been reinstated. This reads as a permit-pulling builder comfortable with structural jobs and city inspectors, not a shop with a public review history. Ask for recent client references and the current standing of both licences before signing anything.
