High Tide Contracting is a family-owned, design-build renovation contractor based in Falmouth, MA that says it serves Cape Cod and the South Shore, including Plymouth, Hyannis, Barnstable, Sandwich, Bourne, Mashpee, Chatham, Orleans and Dennis. The company describes itself as licensed and insured and reports eighteen years of experience. Reviewers consistently name a hands-on owner, Greg (also given as Gregory), who shows up personally to look at the job, diagnose problems, and quote the work.
Google shows five stars from 31 ratings, and the twenty-seven reviews collected across Google and Thumbtack are unusually specific rather than generic. Homeowners describe a full bathroom built from scratch, a new kitchen and bathroom together, a collapsed deck rebuilt after Greg diagnosed the cause and gave what one reviewer called a fair quote, a sunroom converted into year-round living space, a whole-house re-siding job, replacement windows planned out with digital mockups beforehand, a porch repair with shingling, yard excavation ahead of a pool installation, and a full renovation of a foreclosed home. Recurring themes are punctual starts, work finished on or ahead of schedule, daily cleanup, and pricing reviewers call fair or honest. Six of the twenty-seven reviews are from the last six months, and none is negative.
Thumbtack independently verifies the same person behind the reviews: Gregory Hunkins passed its background check, and the profile lists a Massachusetts Construction Supervisor license for one- and two-family dwellings. That credential comes from Thumbtack's own listing rather than a state registry lookup, so it's worth confirming the license number directly with the state before hiring. There's also a tenure discrepancy worth asking about: the company's own website claims eighteen years in business, while Thumbtack's profile for the same business states eight years.
For a Cape Cod homeowner who wants one contractor to run a renovation start to finish - bathrooms, kitchens, decks, siding, windows, storm repair, or site excavation - the reviewed track record here is strong, specific, and consistent across two platforms. Ask to see the state license directly and clarify how long the company has actually been operating before signing.
