Shawn's General Contracting is a Dedham, Massachusetts general home-improvement contractor owned and personally run by Shawn Fargher, who works as the installer himself. The company has been in business 16 years according to its BBB accreditation record and holds BBB accreditation with an A+ rating. The company covers a wide range of exterior and general repair work — roofing, siding, gutters, decks, chimney work, carpentry, waterproofing, and general remodeling — positioning itself as a one-stop option for both large projects and small home repairs. Customer feedback on file is limited but consistently positive. One customer said the crew did a fantastic job replacing their roof and installing a new skylight, calling Fargher responsive, professional, and reliable. Another described the company as reliable, thorough and conscientious, with work that was high quality and reasonably priced. A third hired the company for roof snow removal and ice-dam work after a heavy snowfall. The company self-reports being OSHA certified and holding a Massachusetts Builders License, though neither has been verified against a state registry here. Its BBB categories also list bathroom and kitchen remodeling among its offerings, though no customer account on file speaks to that work specifically. Shawn's General Contracting looks like a solid option for roofing, siding, gutter, or general repair work in the Greater Boston area, particularly for a homeowner who wants to work directly with the owner rather than a larger crew — worth confirming current license and insurance details directly, since the written record here is still fairly small.
