Keene Contractors is a small, owner-run general contracting business in Sagamore Beach, run by Wade Keene, doing remodeling, additions, siding, roofing, kitchens, bathrooms, and new home construction. The Better Business Bureau, which rates the company A+, describes it as a non-accredited general partnership that's been in business for about 40 years. Every review on file dates from 2017 to 2019, and the picture they paint is consistent: in a 2018 review, a customer said Wade called back quickly, showed up exactly on time, and charged a reasonable price for excellent work. In 2017 reviews, others called him a knowledgeable carpenter with excellent pricing and a pleasant person to work with. In a 2019 review, a customer described two decks redesigned beautifully with some extra custom touches. There's nothing on record more recent than 2019, so this reads as an honest but dated snapshot — a small, personally-run shop that was well-regarded several years ago. It's worth confirming directly that Wade Keene is still active and taking on projects before relying on this history.

Wade Keene called me rather quickly after I posted my request. We talked a bit about the overall project and he came soon after. I had some of the items needed to complete the project and he advised what else would be needed. We agreed to a date/time for completion of the project. The project included: mounted 4 TVs, removed a metal awning and fixed the siding where the bolts had been, reattached the stair railing to the concrete stoop, and built a small ramp from the porch to the back door. He explained the one item he could not complete - changing a thermostat - which I appreciated his honesty vice the possibility of doing it wrong. He was very personable and professional. I thought the cost was relative to the work. I would recommend.
Wade Keene called very soon after I made my request and he came at exactly the time he said he would. He was very professional and kind. He did an excellent job and his charge was very reasonable. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.
Excellent pricing, excellent guy to work with, and a very knowledgeable carpenter!
Wade is a very pleasant gentleman and I am glad I got to work with him. I would recommend him to anyone!
