Wood Contracting

One Quincy homeowner called on a Sunday about a broken deck, had someone out Tuesday and the deck fixed by Thursday — that was an October 2024 review. Decks and porches are the job Wood Contracting's customers describe most: replacements, stairs, custom rails, a second staircase and a gate. The company says it started in 1975 as Wood Commercial Painting under Bruce Wood and grew into full residential work — siding, decks, windows, doors, kitchen and bath remodeling — across the South Shore. Brian and Michael are the two names customers keep using. A February 2024 Thumbtack reviewer with custom rail work and a tight timeframe had both the front porch and the back deck replaced; another, writing in May 2024 about two decks and a set of stairs, describes the crew arriving on the scheduled day and working 7am to 7pm. The windows go the same way: a homeowner in August 2023 had 20-plus windows replaced along with new siding, shingles and exterior trim, on time and within budget, and a March 2026 review covers 24 windows and three sliders. They do reach past the exterior. In a December 2023 review, a customer describes a combined bathroom and kitchen renovation — dropped ceiling, new drywall, toilet and sink, vinyl tile in both rooms — and a November 2023 reviewer had bedrooms painted and basement drywall patched after a quick, no-pressure quote. Their Thumbtack profile carries 5.0 stars across 60 ratings and Top Pro status; Google shows 5 stars from nine ratings, and a May 2026 post in r/QuincyMa names the company and its Willard Street address. One thing worth raising: in a February 2023 review, a customer who had a second staircase and a deck gate built says the crew flagged a problem with the gate themselves before the job ended and said they would return to fix it permanently. Ask how they schedule that kind of come-back. For a deck, porch or window job on the South Shore, this is a crew customers describe showing up on the promised day and finishing quickly. Before booking a bigger renovation, pin down which parts their own crew does and which go to outside trades, and get the punch-list visit written into the schedule.
