Matador Building Company Inc

Matador Building Company's written history comes down to one job, described in detail. In a February 2017 Houzz review, a homeowner wrote about having worn, damaged shingles stripped off their house and replaced with painted cedar, a project they called well-planned from start to finish and handled by a crew they said treated the house with care. That single 5-star Houzz review, now nine years old, is the entire customer account on file. Matador itself is a Marblehead general contractor working the North Shore, and its Houzz profile is expansive: kitchens, baths, additions, basements, custom homes and new construction, porches, tile and flooring, roof replacement. Typical job cost is listed at $30,000 to $1,000,000, which says more about the scale they aim at than any of the service labels do. On credentials, Houzz shows a self-stated "unrestricted csl#91583". That is the company's own line on its profile rather than anything checked against the state registry, and a construction supervisor licence is a separate credential from home improvement contractor registration, so ask about both. The distance between a very broad service list and one dated account is the thing to weigh here. If you are hiring for a large remodel or a new build, the stated price band and the general-contracting focus fit the profile. Ask for references and addresses from the past two years rather than leaning on the 2017 job, and ask to see current licence and insurance certificates before work starts.
