Thomas G. Rice

Thomas G. Rice works out of Tedesco Street in Marblehead, and his record is a permit trail rather than a review page — nine filings, no customer writing published anywhere. The scope of that trail is the interesting part. A 2021 job at Enon Street in Beverly ran to $201,000 for an interior remodel with a new roof and windows, finalled out. A 2022 permit covered a two-storey wood-frame addition on a single-family home on Rose Avenue in Marblehead, valued at $119,328 and marked complete. Six of the nine filings are the same commercial job repeated unit by unit between 2012 and 2016: replacing a roof glulam beam at a Danvers address, one condominium unit at a time. Activity has thinned lately. Only one permit falls in the last three years — a September 2023 Marblehead demolition permit for stripping first-floor wall coverings, non-load-bearing walls, flooring and bathroom and kitchen fixtures, and that permit is marked suspended. On licensing, BuildZoom lists three Massachusetts records against this exact name and address: a Construction Supervisor licence, CS-069299, and a Home Improvement Contractor registration, 140354, both shown active, and a third number, 26679, printed as active on the same page that says it expired in May 2016. Those are the directory's own checks rather than a state confirmation, and the third entry contradicts itself, so treat all three as things to verify — the Construction Supervisor licence with the Department of Public Safety and the HIC registration with the Office of Consumer Affairs. There is nothing published from past customers to weigh, so no rating is given here. For a Marblehead homeowner planning an addition or a gut remodel, the permit history is real and locally rooted; ask for the current licence and registration numbers in writing, proof of insurance, and references from the Beverly and Marblehead jobs, and ask directly what happened with the suspended 2023 permit.
