Raymond Rodriguez

Raymond Rodriguez runs a remodeling business out of 4 Pandy Lane in Methuen, taking on kitchens, bathrooms, basements, whole-home remodels and additions. The permit on file shows that range in one job: a 2018 renovation of a two-family in Springfield, valued at $20,500, covering the first- and second-floor kitchens and baths, six replacement windows, and repairs to the front and rear porches. BuildZoom lists Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration #160067 for the business. Check that number yourself on the state's Consumer Affairs and Business Regulation register before you sign anything, and ask for a certificate of insurance. If you are planning a kitchen or bath rebuild, ask for a couple of local references and a written scope, with the payments tied to milestones rather than dates.
