J.E. Fitzgerald Housesmith Inc.

J.E. Fitzgerald Housesmith Inc. is a Norwell-based remodeling and general contracting firm established by Jef Fitzgerald in 1984. The company says it handles residential carpentry, project design, construction management, renovations, additions, new construction, cabinetry, and millwork across the South Shore, Barnstable, and Boston’s Back Bay. Its website also says the firm is fully insured and identifies Jef Fitzgerald as a licensed Construction Supervisor and Registered Home Improvement Contractor. The strongest independent detail is the project history shown on BuildZoom: nine projects across the past three years, including kitchen and bathroom remodels, garage and porch additions, deck installation and repair, siding work, and a detached garage. The profile lists carpentry, general contracting, project design, construction management, and custom cabinetry and millwork among the company’s work. Before booking, confirm the current Massachusetts credentials and the exact scope for your project. The website publishes Construction Supervisors License #008898 and Contractors Registration #100183, while BuildZoom lists Construction Supervisor license #CS-008898 as a directory claim. The website says it is a Better Business Bureau accredited member, but the current BBB profile says the business is not BBB accredited; its BBB grade is A+. This looks best suited to homeowners seeking a long-running residential remodeling or carpentry firm for a defined renovation, addition, deck, garage, kitchen, bathroom, or custom millwork project. Ask for a written scope, current registration details, and references for work matching your job before signing.
