Riordan Construction

The name Riordan Construction turns up more than one business online, and it's worth sorting out which one this actually is before hiring. Most of what surfaces is a Riordan Construction Co., Inc. based in Salem, MA — a company that says it's been building and renovating on the North Shore since 1975, run by David Riordan, serving towns like Marblehead, Beverly, Peabody, and Danvers. Separately, BuildZoom's permit records turn up a Bill Riordan doing general remodeling work out of North Andover, MA, whose Massachusetts Construction Supervisor license expired back in 2017 and is still listed as inactive. Neither of those addresses matches this contractor's own listed address in Wakefield, MA, so it isn't clear any of this material actually describes the same business. The Salem company's own reviews are themselves mixed — some call the work thorough and top-quality, others say they were overcharged significantly — but attributing that history to this specific Wakefield contractor would be a guess. Before hiring, it's worth confirming directly which Riordan Construction this is, what their current license status actually is, and asking for references tied to their real, present-day address rather than relying on any of these look-alike profiles.
