Joel White Construction

Joel White Construction Inc works out of 3 Pleasant St in Marblehead and describes itself in three words on Houzz: "Full remodeling company." Kitchens, bathrooms and whole-home remodeling are the categories it files itself under, and it belongs to the Marblehead Chamber of Commerce. Beyond that, there is very little to go on. Nobody has written a review of the company on Houzz or BuildZoom, no project photos are posted, and no permit history appears on its BuildZoom page. The licensing picture is the thing to sort out before you call. Houzz shows a number, CS-103927, in the format Massachusetts uses for a construction supervisor licence — but that is the company's own entry on a directory, not a confirmed credential. BuildZoom, meanwhile, flags the company with "Unable To Verify" and "No active license on file," which is BuildZoom saying it could not match a record with the licensing board. Those two are not the same claim, and neither settles the question. So treat this as a local Marblehead outfit you need to check out yourself. Look up CS-103927 with the Department of Public Safety and ask whether the company also holds a Home Improvement Contractor registration with the Office of Consumer Affairs, which nonstructural residential work requires. Then ask for addresses and references from recent kitchen or bath jobs — with no written customer history anywhere, references are the only track record available.
