WG Custom Carpentry, Inc. is a carpentry business whose Massachusetts home improvement contractor licence, number 198481, is expired on the state registry. In a 2023 review, a customer said Wellynson did a good job and was responsive. In a separate 2023 review, a customer who had hired Wellynson in 2020 said they hired him again in 2023 to put new boards on their deck, and that he sent 2 younger kids to do the work, who spliced boards together badly all over the 30 foot deck. In that 2023 review, the customer said they broke the siding on the house and refused to fix it, did not use galvanized nails, and put the railing hardware in upside down. The same 2023 review said the customer paid Wellynson in full, then asked them not to return and hired another contractor to complete the job.
DO NOT HIRE! DO NOT HIRE! DO NOT HIRE! I originally hired Wellynson in 2020 when he was the one doing the work. Hired him again in 2023 and this is my experience. I hired him to give my deck a facelift, meaning keep the existing foundation, however put new boards down. He sent these 2 younger kids to do the work. Just look at the pictures. Listen. I don’t have to say a thing. Look at the photos. They spliced the two boards together HORRIBLY. This was all over my 30 foot deck. They damaged a ton of boards that I had to buy all over again to get redone. Wellynson met me with another contractor and the other contractor even told wellynson that this was a terrible job. They broke the siding on my house and refused to fix it. They didn’t use galvanized nails so I had to have it redone. They put the railing hardware in upside down and I had to have them redone. Then Wellysnon hurt his eye doing something on my property with his tools and threatened to come after my homeowners policy. I sent him countless photos. Videos. I ultimately asked them not to return and hired another contractor to complete the job after paying Wellynson in full. Do NOT go through what went through with this guy and his novice crew. It was a nightmare.
Wellynson was great responsive and did a good job!!
