EAMES CONSTRUCTION INC

Eames Construction is a Cohasset general contractor built for full-scale renovation and new-build work, not quick patch jobs. Run by general contractor Shawn W. Richard, the company says it has 38 years of experience, with an in-house team covering everything from excavation and framing to finish carpentry, permitting, and design — the kind of shop behind gut renovations and additions across the South Shore. Nobody who has hired them has left anything negative on record. What turns up instead is a scattering of independent, positive mentions: a BuildZoom score of 92, a five-star local-directory listing, and a separate account from a past remodeling client describing the work as prompt and detail-oriented. The company carries an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau, though it isn't BBB-accredited, and its Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor license (HIC 177607) is verified active with the state. The catch is depth, not tone: Google shows just 3 ratings, and the company's own Houzz profile — which lists a broad South Shore service area running from Cohasset to Weymouth — has zero completed reviews. There's also a detail worth asking about directly: the 38-years claim doesn't line up with BBB's record that the business was started in 2014, so it may describe the owner's personal trade experience rather than this company's age. For a full renovation or new build in the Cohasset/South Shore area, the fundamentals here check out — an active license, no complaints anywhere, real project photos of gutted and rebuilt homes — but ask about that experience claim and get references, since there isn't much of an independent review trail to check against.
