# t. morrell / gutters and roofing **Trade:** Roofing · **Address:** 102 Shaw St, Braintree, MA 02184, USA · **Phone:** (617) 688-3732 · **Languages:** English **Rating: 2.0/5** (low confidence) — from 2 reviews across 4 sources. ## The honest read t. morrell / gutters and roofing is a small, Braintree-based roofing and gutter repair operation run by someone named Morrell. The two written reviews on file both describe serious problems. In a 2022 review, a customer said gutter repairs done after storm damage used too few screws per bracket, leaving the gutters vibrating loudly in the wind; after admitting the mistake, Morrell reportedly never returned to fix it, and a second repair person who later looked at the work called it a poor job. In a 2021 review, an elderly customer's roof leak was allegedly patched with nothing more than caulking for $1,100, the leak was not actually fixed, and part of the roof was later removed on a follow-up visit where the contractor claimed to have installed a ridge vent and pipe boots the reviewer says were never there — along with flashing placed on top of the shingles, a cap installed backward, no permit pulled, and no contract or signature at any point, before an attempt to charge an additional $1,400. There's nothing positive in the written record to weigh against these two accounts — anyone considering this contractor should get a permit and a signed contract in writing before any work begins, given what these two customers describe. **Concerns:** - Botched gutter repair — admitted fault, then never returned to fix it - Alleged elder-targeted overcharging — false repair claims and no permit or contract **Where sources disagree:** - Google shows two different rating aggregates on record for this business (3.9★ from 7 ratings and 4★ from 8 ratings), suggesting possibly two separate Google listings. ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - A 2022 review describes gutter repairs done with too few screws per bracket, leaving them vibrating loudly in wind, with no follow-up fix after the contractor admitted the mistake _(confidence: high)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sChZDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUMydjZ1ZkpBEAE!2m1!1s0x0:0x931ae1269bf2f1e6!3m1!1s2@1:CIHM0ogKEICAgIC2v6ufJA%7C%7C?hl=en) — “1★ AVOID AT ALL COSTS!
