Tony's Contracting is a small, veteran-owned general contracting crew at 106 London Street in Lowell, MA, led by Tony with Rafael running some jobs, that homeowners in the Merrimack Valley hire for decks and porches, small carpentry, painting and cleanouts. Angi and HomeAdvisor list it with 31 years of experience, free estimates and emergency service; Houzz adds flooring, roofing, siding and windows to the service list. The Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor registration on file for Tony's Contracting, Inc. (#203085) shows as expired in the state registry. Angi and HomeAdvisor show a 4.8-star average across 12 ratings, Google 5 stars across 7. Decks are the job that comes up most. In a September 2024 review, a homeowner had a deck and railings replaced and said Rafael went along to buy all the materials so they stayed involved in every choice. An April 2024 Google reviewer had a front deck repaired and replaced quickly. Back in September 2021, a customer whose porch was rebuilt with new steps described Tony cleaning the site every day, answering every question, attending to details and working long days. A February 2024 customer had a crawl space and basement cleaned until they smelled fresh, and a January 2021 reviewer called him a good painter and a good carpenter who shows up every day and puts in a full day. The one wobble is a March 2021 gutter repair that did not stop a leak on the first try; the homeowner said Tony came back the next day to fix it and called him a good man, though they were still waiting on rain to confirm. Reviewers otherwise describe the crew as responsive, hard-working and courteous. Before hiring, ask for a current HIC registration number and check it with the state, since the one on record has lapsed; in Massachusetts that registration is what qualifies a job for the guaranty fund. The service lists across the directories are broad, from chimney service to roofing and windows, while the written reviews cover decks, porches, painting and cleanouts, so ask for a recent example of any other trade you need. For a Lowell-area homeowner with a deck or porch to rebuild, or a basement to clear out, the reviews describe a hands-on crew that keeps you in the loop. Confirm the registration and get the scope and price in writing.
Tony’s Contracting were professional and accommodating to my needs and the job at hand. Rafael took the lead on replacing my deck and railings with new products. Rafael accompanied me to purchase all the material needed for the job so I was always involved in the process. The final project looks amazing and I am very pleased! I have already discussed replacing my front porch using the same material as my new deck - I will definitely recommend hiring Tony’s Contracting.
Did good work fast repairing and replacing our front deck. Looks great!
Tony and his friend are very nice and hardworking people. They make my crawl space and basement clean and smell fresh. Thank you! I’m definitely happy to be working with you again soon! 😊
Tony is very responsive and his work on rebuilding my porch and providing a new steps was great. (5 stars across the board). He cleaned the site every day and he fielded every question and would attend to the details that I brought up. His work ethic is amazing, working long days (including some weekend days if there were rain days during the week) and keeping to commitment to stay on the job everyday until completion (unlike some contractors who start the next job before finishing the current one). After he finished the porch rebuild, he agreed to do another job (a complete demolition and redesign of sidewalk steps) which he brought in a subcontractor to assist. The sub-contractor, who did beautiful work, was not as attentive to details of design that Tony specified and for that job, I would rate the the quality of work and the value for money ratings (his rates were comparable as proposal) a 4.5 and not 5 stars across the board. But with the porch rebuild and porch step redesign Tony was fantastic (5 star quality). It took a year for me to find Tony, and he was worth the wait. I recommend him and would, without a doubt, hire him again.
he come right away after phone call. didn't do too well on the fixing of the gutter, but when i call him about the leakage again, he came next day to fix. now we have to wait for a rainy day , but he was a good man
