Pelland & Vaughan Home Services

Pelland & Vaughan Home Services is a two-person business in North Reading: Mark Pelland does the building, Wendy Vaughan owns it. She also runs a Woburn medspa, and the company's own telling of its origin is that her clients kept complaining about unreliable home improvement contractors — so she started one with her husband. The company says Mark has been a builder since 1986. The work it describes is broad for a two-person outfit: residential and commercial repair, remodeling, carpentry and exterior work across the North Shore. One thing to settle before you call. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, number 198674, is registered to Pelland & Vaughan Home Services LLC and the state registry shows it expired. In Massachusetts, HIC registration matters for remodeling and repair work of this kind — the exemptions cover narrow specialties like landscaping-only or interior-painting-only work, not general remodeling — so ask whether it has been renewed and get the current number before signing anything. The site also carries a "Proud Member Since 2009" badge without naming the organization behind it; worth asking what that membership is. No customer has published a review of this company on any platform we can read, so nothing here is a verdict on the workmanship — there is simply nothing independent to weigh yet. That is why no star rating is shown. If you are considering them, ask for references from recent jobs in your town, confirm the registration status with the state, and get the free estimate the company offers in writing.
