Chavez Construction Company

Every review of Chavez Construction circles back to one name: Segundo Chavez, who customers describe as showing up himself, pricing fairly, and getting asked back for project after project. He and his brother Victor, both originally from Peru, say they started the Everett company in November 2001; the site still describes it as handling porches, kitchen and bathroom remodeling, additions, and new construction — full renovation work rather than quick repairs. Google shows 4.9 stars from 27 ratings, and all 20 reviews pulled here are five stars, spanning 2023 to now across six different sources with no complaints surfacing anywhere. Two from this past May keep that pattern current: one describes a crew that showed up on time every day, kept the site clean, and finished on schedule and within budget; another says Segundo and his son repaired a kitchen that had been damaged by a water leak — three years after its last renovation — and left it looking better than before. The Better Business Bureau gives the business an A+ (it hasn't sought accreditation, which is separate from the grade) and lists 27 years in business, roughly matching that 2001 start date — though the company's own site separately claims "15 years in business," a line that looks stale. It's also worth pinning down which license number is current: a Buildzoom-sourced listing cites #141511 and Houzz shows CS-106843, but the number that actually clears the Massachusetts registry is Home Improvement Contractor license #184804, verified active. Outside Google, there isn't much of an independent trail yet either — Houzz shows zero reviews and BBB lists none, so most of this reputation sits on one platform. This reads like the right call for a bigger renovation — a kitchen or bathroom gut, an addition, new construction — where having Segundo himself on the job matters more than a big back office. Before booking, confirm which license number he's currently pulling permits under, and ask how a project close to your size has gone lately, since the newest detailed accounts here cover only two jobs.
