Wade Construction & Remodeling

Wade Construction & Remodeling is a Weymouth-based general contractor run by Lester Wade, handling additions, kitchen and bathroom remodels, foundation and structural work, decks, and storm and tree-damage repair. The company holds an active Massachusetts home improvement contractor license, verified by the state registry. Reviews from 2022 through 2024 describe Lester as fair, professional, and responsive, with customers praising a fast on-site estimate after a tree fell on a house, a large home addition completed to high standards despite unexpected delays being clearly communicated, and structural beam and finish-carpentry work for load-bearing wall removals. One remodeling-company owner said Wade Construction is their regular subcontractor for beam installation and finish carpentry, and another customer described working with Lester for roughly three years across about 15 renovation and new-construction projects. Earlier reviews from 2016 and 2017 describe a basement finish and a home addition completed to satisfaction, and BuildZoom reviews from 2017 through 2023 describe foundation underpinning, egress window wells, deck footings, and a well-regarded deck build. The record also includes serious complaints about timeline and follow-through. A 2023 review said a job was left unfinished after payment was taken, with trash and nails left in the yard. A separate 2023 review said the customer was still waiting for a building department final inspection signoff more than three years after a major renovation was completed. A 2017 Angi review described a renovation contracted for one month that took seven months to finish. Wade Construction & Remodeling holds a 4.5-star average on Google and mixed but mostly positive ratings on Angi and BuildZoom. It has real depth in structural and remodeling work, though its record includes genuine complaints about project timelines and permit closeout.
