SHAFFER CONSTRUCTION

Shaffer Construction is a Norwell general contractor and carpentry outfit run by Patrick Shaffer, whose Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration (HIC 176477) is active with the state. The company's Houzz profile lists a broad slate of remodeling work — additions, second-story additions, new construction, decks, window replacement, siding and roofing, plus kitchen and bathroom remodeling — alongside a 30-hour OSHA credential. As of a 2019 LinkedIn profile, Shaffer had already logged 40 years and two months in the trade, having worked as a lead carpenter and carpenter for other builders in the Plymouth County area before starting his own company. There isn't much of a public track record to go on yet: the Houzz profile shows no customer reviews and only one project photo posted, so there's little third-party word on how a recent job actually went. Anyone considering them should ask for references directly and confirm current project availability before booking — the profile alone doesn't answer that yet.
