Pacheco Construction

Pacheco Construction works the outside of a house: siding put on, repaired or stripped off, decks and porches rebuilt or added, windows and doors repaired or hung, and roof repairs. Smaller handyman calls are on the list too. The company works out of Malden. Its Thumbtack profile carries eight ratings at a 5.0 average, plus a background-check credential. For a homeowner weighing a siding job or a deck addition, this is a crew that covers both the carpentry and the skin of the house, so one contractor can take the whole exterior instead of two. Before booking, get the scope in writing — materials, trim details, and who hauls the debris — and ask for the Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration and the insurance certificates.
