PAG Contracting is a Norwood, Massachusetts general contractor owned by Paul Griffith. Its listings describe deck and porch construction, sheds and playhouses, gazebos, additions, repairs, and remodeling; the business reports 18 years of experience on Angi and 15 years in business on BBB. The dated customer history is mixed but detailed. In 2019, homeowners described a deck extension that required a zoning-board process and praised Paul's communication, persistence, and reasonable pricing. Another 2019 reviewer said he showed up every day and completed a deck well. Earlier reviews describe a rebuilt porch, new decks, and shed or treehouse projects. There is also a serious counterexample: a September 2018 review reported repeated delays, missed appearances, and poor deck workmanship. That experience conflicts with the otherwise positive accounts and is worth discussing directly when evaluating a project. BuildZoom lists seven permitted projects and an active Massachusetts HIC license #159400, while an older #192010 entry is inactive. Angi lists a self-reported unrestricted construction supervisor license CS-102109, which should be checked with the state before work begins. PAG may be a fit for decks, porches, sheds, and related residential remodeling in the Norwood area. Confirm current references, schedule, payment milestones, warranty terms, permits, and the applicable active license in a written contract.
Paul was wonderful to work with...I wanted to extend my deck and early into the project it was discovered I needed to go through the zoning board...this was a long process and took over 3 months but Paul did not back out and agreed to be available when the process was completed! Paul was a great communicator and always reponded to my questions and updates, he met with me immediately when I had questions about the project and in the end it was completely beautifully and I am very happy with the final project...his prices are also very reasonable and I had a lot of estimates prior to choosing Paul...I would highly recommend him for this type of project!
Paul was great, showed up every day and worked hard to complete the job. Like I said most contractors show up on the first day then you don't see them for weeks. Paul arrived on day one and came everyday to complete job. Excellent work, my deck looks great.
The work began in June, but the project did not proceed as planned at all. There were numerous delays, with Mr. Griffith not showing up as per agreement.
Paul Griffith is personable and hard working. I needed my front porch rebuilt.
Paul was wonderful with building our deck. He went above and beyond in complying with code regulations and his workmanship is terrific.
