T. Russo Carpentry LLC is a carpentry business run by owner Thomas Russo out of 654 Prospect St in Methuen, and the clearest picture of its work comes from the building permits it has pulled in its own town rather than from customer reviews. Two Methuen jobs sit on the public record. In June 2020 the company took a $15,000 permit at 22 Cherry Hill Cir to strip an L-shaped deck, inspect the framing, footings and posts for code issues, and install new decking, railings and stair treads. In December 2014 it permitted a $13,117 second-floor bathroom renovation at 3 Waterford Cir covering a stand-up shower, tub, vanity, toilet, tile floor and a pocket door. Both are inspected structural work, which counts for something on its own. The trades it lists are framing, finish carpentry, cabinets, and decks and porches — a carpenter's mix rather than a general remodeler's. The gap a homeowner will feel is track record. BuildZoom says outright that it has received no reviews for this contractor, so there is no customer verdict here at all. Its BuildZoom score of 90 does not fill that gap: the site itself explains the number means only that the contractor is licensed or registered, with no further information, and it is calculated from permit history rather than from anyone's experience of the work. On credentials, BuildZoom lists Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor licence #178463 as active. Treat that as the directory's claim rather than a confirmed fact — it prints a "Date Issued" of 05-06-2026 in the same month it says it checked the licence, on a business with permits going back to 2014, which reads more like a renewal or the site's own check date than an original issue. This is a reasonable call for a Methuen homeowner wanting deck, framing or trim work from someone who pulls permits locally. Before booking, look up licence 178463 with the Massachusetts Office of Consumer Affairs and Business Regulation yourself, and ask for references directly, since no published review history exists to lean on.
