Marcla Construction Inc

Marcla Construction is a Massachusetts general contractor whose reviews cover porches, decks, doors, and full-room remodels — kitchen, bathroom and basement work included. Directories list the business in both Woburn and Chelsea, and reviewers mention working on-site with crew members including Mario, Juan Carlos, Olvin and Ed. Porch and deck work comes up again and again in the reviews. Homeowners in 2021 called the crew punctual and good communicators after a new porch, said they'd gotten so many compliments on it that they'd been recommending the crew to others, and praised a door installation in a house they described as almost 300 years old. A 2023 review of a slider door installation was positive overall — professional, patient, and cleaned up afterward — though it noted the crew made three extra trips to the store, stretching a job expected to take about three hours. More recent reviews describe bigger jobs. A 2024 review credits the crew with a kitchen, laundry room and new bathroom remodel, calling them responsive and attentive to details the homeowners hadn't thought to raise themselves. Another 2024 review describes a bathroom renovation as fast and well-communicated, with complications handled smoothly enough that the homeowner planned to bring the crew back for a full condo renovation. A 2021 review describes basement work where the crew checked in throughout to confirm the homeowner was happy with the result. Marcla holds a 5.0-star average from 13 ratings on Google and 5.0 from 8 ratings on Thumbtack. Its Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor license, #197903, is registry-verified expired; a state government-action listing on BuildZoom also notes the license was at one point shown as cancelled. This fits a porch or deck rebuild, a door replacement, or a kitchen, bathroom or basement remodel; given the lapsed license, confirm current registration and insurance directly before signing anything.
