Moises Carpentry and Painting

Moises Carpentry and Painting is a Lynn outfit built around one name — Moises himself, who shows up personally in nearly every one of the 88 reviews on file across Google, Angi and Thumbtack, dating back to 2021. The record runs deep and almost entirely one direction: 5 stars on Google from 71 ratings, 4.9 on Angi from 60, and a Massachusetts home-improvement contractor license that's verified active. The bulk of the work is exterior carpentry — decks, porches, stairs and trim — done with a recurring pattern: Moises quotes fast, starts on the date he commits to, and the crew leaves the site clean. In a 2026 review, a homeowner described a full front-porch reconstruction — new framing, staining, painting, and matching trim carried around the rest of the house. Another 2026 review described a three-person crew repairing porch steps with new banisters and replacing water-damaged risers. In a 2022 review, a customer described the crew finding dry rot far more extensive than the original scope once the old wood came off, and said Moises walked them through the added materials and time before proceeding rather than just running up the bill. Painting shows up almost as often as carpentry — full house exteriors, interior rooms, trim repaints — and several reviewers specifically mention Moises being upfront about pricing and sticking to his original quote even when the job grew. A 2025 review described replacing fascia boards: a fast on-site proposal, then a crew that started the next day. Another, from 2025, described two rebuilt porches for the reviewer's grandmother — stairs, railings, bench seating — plus a foundation repair, at what the reviewer called a fair price. Repeat business is common in the record: a 2024 review noted a master bath renovation was the customer's second project with Moises, and several other reviewers mention using him multiple times or referring him to family. One 2024 Angi review, rated 4.5 stars rather than 5, mentions a small mishap with a supply order during a deck-repair project — a minor wrinkle in an otherwise clean record, and the only real hiccup that shows up across the written history. For carpentry or exterior painting work in the Lynn area — a deck rebuild, porch repair, or a full exterior repaint — the pattern here is consistent across five years: clear quotes, on-time starts, and a crew that explains problems before charging for them.
