Richard A Cifuni

Richard A Cifuni works out of Loring Road in Winthrop, but his permit trail runs mostly across the harbour. South Boston, the North End, Back Bay, East India Row — condo and multi-family interior renovations, 35 permitted projects in all on BuildZoom. The written customer history is dated: a single five-star review on that BuildZoom page, posted in October 2012, praising service, work and price in a dozen words. BuildZoom lists a Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration and a construction supervisor licence in his name. Those are the directory's records rather than confirmations, so ask him for the numbers and check them against the state yourself. For a condo gut or a whole-unit interior remodel he has the permit history to back the conversation. Go in planning to do your own reference-checking — ask for two or three recent clients and the addresses of finished jobs you can actually look at.
