Teheen Construction

Teheen Construction is a general contracting outfit based in Ipswich, Massachusetts, run by owner Michael Teheen with a crew BBB records at three people after seven years in business. Homeowners across the North Shore — Beverly, Danvers, Hamilton, Ipswich and neighboring towns — hire them for additions, new construction, and remodels that can touch the kitchen, the bathroom, and the exterior. The clearest picture of their track record comes from permit filings rather than star ratings: BuildZoom credits the company with 53 permitted projects across the North Shore and a score of 96, built from complete remodels, additions, and window-and-siding jobs rather than posted reviews. The handful of customer accounts circulating online are positive in tone, describing a crew that shows up on time, holds to its quoted price, and leaves a tidy site when the job is done. Houzz separately shows a single 5-star rating and a Houzz Award, filing the business under carpentry and remodeling — custom cabinetry, trim, deck building — too small a sample to lean on by itself, though it lines up with the general-contracting work described elsewhere. One thing worth sorting out before signing anything: three different directories cite three different license numbers for the company. BuildZoom and BBB both point to #149787 — BBB records it as a Massachusetts BBRS construction license expiring February 2027 — while Houzz lists CS089623 and a third site lists #MA50726REG2. None of these have been checked against the state registry directly, so it's worth asking Teheen which number is current. The BBB itself hasn't rated the company, citing insufficient information. For a North Shore homeowner planning an addition, a remodel, or exterior work, and who wants an established local outfit with real permit history behind it, Teheen Construction is worth a call — just confirm the current license number and ask for a couple of recent references, since the public review trail is still thin.
