Kevin P Bourque is a one-man carpentry and remodeling operation run out of 38 Cleveland Ave in Saugus, and the only durable trace of the work is in town permit files rather than review pages. Those files run from 2004 to 2023 and describe the kind of jobs he keeps getting called for: decks, porches, and exterior work. Two of the seven are in Methuen — a deck teardown and rebuild on Elm Street valued at $18,000 in 2023, and a $46,675 siding-and-deck job on Sugar Hill Circle in 2020 — with others in Wakefield, Marblehead, Peabody, and Woburn. That is a working North Shore radius, pulled properly through building departments. What is missing is any customer voice at all. BuildZoom states plainly that it has received no reviews for him, and no other source turned up one either, so there is nothing here about how he communicates, how he prices, or whether he finishes on schedule. His BuildZoom score of 95 does not fill that gap: it is calculated from permit activity, not from anyone's opinion of the work. The licensing picture needs a direct question. BuildZoom lists a home improvement contractor registration and a construction supervisor number for him, and also lists a second, separate home improvement number it marks cancelled. None of that was confirmed against the state registry here, and directory licence records routinely attach to the wrong business. He is a reasonable call for a deck, porch, or siding job on the North Shore or in the Merrimack Valley, where the permit history is real and specific. Before booking, ask him directly for his current HIC and construction supervisor numbers, check them yourself at the state's Consumer Affairs site, and — since no past customer has said anything publicly — ask for two or three recent local references you can actually phone.
