A customer writing in March started out unsure — about the project, and about trusting a contractor with it at all — and ended up describing a job that grew: Patrick found more problems than the original scope covered, took them on, and finished every request. That is the most detailed account of this company's work, and it is the useful one. Red Dawgs is Patrick Simoes's company, run out of Marlborough with his family, covering Framingham, Worcester and Shrewsbury. The site describes carpentry, remodeling and exterior work — kitchens and bathrooms, framing and custom carpentry, decks, porches and siding — and its Thumbtack profile lists eight employees and 48 projects. The few accounts on file cover a wide spread of that. In December 2025 one household had a deck that had gone mouldy brought back and sealed against moisture and a sun room reworked, and called them painters as much as carpenters. Another customer that month had siding and window installation done over the previous winter and called the work efficient. A third had Patrick redo the kitchen and fix up the bathroom, singling out his punctuality and work ethic. Back in August 2023, a Thumbtack customer praised the trim work and the solutions that came with it. This is a small and fairly young company, and the written history is small with it: five accounts across Google and Thumbtack between 2023 and 2026. The years are stated two ways — the website says six or more, the Thumbtack profile says five — and the site's count of 300-plus clients is the company's own. Thumbtack shows a background check on the profile. For carpentry, a deck rebuild, siding, or a kitchen and bath refresh around Marlborough and Framingham, this is a reasonable call if you want the owner on the job. Ask for a written scope with an allowance for what turns up once walls or decking come apart — the one detailed account here is a job that grew.
its great contract!At the beginning, I had doubt about the project, the trust each other and so on. He did the project over my expectation! He found more issues and the project scope expanded. And he finished everything, every my request very well! I am happy to have very good relationships with him now. I'll keep him as my first consideration, first contact when ever I need help.
From big projects to small Red Dawg Home Services are always professional and a pleasure to work with. Our deck, once stained with mold, is now stunning and protected against moisture. They are extraordinary painters and transformed our sun room into a beautiful room, paying attention to the smallest but important updates, like adding molding at the top. My home office is now a tranquil shade of blue. They are fast and incredibly neat. We will continue to work with them again and again.
Red Dawgs Home Services took care of my siding and window installation last winter. They were efficient and professional, and the quality of work was great. I recommend them.
I recently had Patrick redo my kitchen and fix up my bathroom, and I’m super happy with the results! He’s got a great work ethic, always on time, and really knows his stuff. If you need any home improvement done, I’d definitely recommend him!
I loved the trim work that they did at my house!!! They have great solutions. Super recommend
