Thomas Construction Services

Thomas Construction Company, Inc. is a general contractor and construction-management firm at 2 Waumbeck St in Dorchester, incorporated in Massachusetts in 1987 and run by Frank E. Thomas as president with Hubert L. Thomas as vice-president. Directory records describe a firm of roughly nine employees that has worked for residential, commercial, public and private clients and that lists membership in the carpenters union. Two things a homeowner should check before calling. The state's Home Improvement Contractor registry holds a record for THOMAS CONSTRUCTION CO INC under number 110740, and that registration is expired rather than active — in Massachusetts, HIC registration is what gives a homeowner access to the Guaranty Fund on residential work. Separately, the Better Business Bureau's profile for the company carries an alert reading 'Out-of-Business known or suspected', and that is the stated reason it publishes no rating at all rather than a poor one. The customer record is essentially empty: a single Google star rating and no written reviews anywhere. Older material does exist — in 2012 the firm went to Suffolk Superior Court against the Charles Street A.M.E. church and its lender over $629,000 it said it was owed for work on the church's Roxbury community centre — but nothing in the record speaks to how recent jobs have gone. The practical next step is simply to confirm the company is still trading and to ask for a current HIC registration number before any residential work is discussed.
