That customer said he has become their go-to guy for every project between their two homes. The company says on its website that it has been in business for 25 years. Its BBB profile describes residential and commercial construction and remodeling, including architectural design, new construction and custom homebuilding, and BuildZoom's profile places it in Westport, Massachusetts. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, number 183090, is active on the state registry. A 2024 customer called him "very negligent" and wrote that they "would never do business or exchange cash while signing anything with this man." The BBB grades the company A+ and lists it as accredited. **Strengths:** - A finished deck — a recent customer praised the finishing details - Active MA registration — home improvement registration active on the state registry **Concerns:** - Negligence complaint — a 2024 customer called him very negligent ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - A customer said he finished their deck, was punctual and paid attention to the finishing details _(confidence: medium)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sCi9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT20xbk5tVnZXV0pYZFdscU5VUmtTbkJCT0RSU2NFRRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0x28b4a8cc384cdbe!3m1!1s2@1:CAIQACodChtycF9oOm1nNmVvWWJXdWlqNURkSnBBODRScEE%7C%7C?hl=en-US) — “5★ It is so hard to find a contractor you can actually trust, but he is the real deal.
