Verified record
Whitman Restoration is a Wales, Massachusetts company that BBB records as 26 years in business. Reviews are thin, but outside accounts describe real work: a masonry stabilization and repair project, and a second-story balcony walkway repair. In a 2015 news account, Carabetta hired the Massachusetts company to repair the second-story balcony walkway winding around its apartment complex in New Haven, Connecticut. Worth knowing before hiring: a 2018 court filing shows a materials supplier suing the company and Claude Whitman over $22,914.23 in unpaid construction materials. BBB lists a Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, CS-099595, for the company — that number comes from BBB's own listing, not a state verification. This looks like a company with genuine restoration and masonry experience but a thin public record; ask directly about current licensing standing and how the 2018 supplier dispute was resolved before signing anything.
