PLJ Carpentry Inc.

Twenty-seven Google reviews, and every one of them is five stars — a streak that, for a business built on decks, roofs, and siding, is hard to shrug off. PLJ Carpentry works Cape Cod's exterior-renovation circuit out of Cohasset, and by its own account founder Paulo started the company after about ten months working in a carpentry shop, growing it from a single van into a roughly 30-employee outfit. The recent jobs read like a pattern, not a fluke. A June deck replacement credited installers Luis and Marco with finishing on time and on budget, the site swept clean every evening. A Provincetown build that same month — no small feat given the town's tight construction season — drew praise for crew members Josue and Joab staying unhurried even with neighbors and other contractors watching. A spring project named project manager Wilson and workers Santos and Alex on a job the homeowner called one of the best construction experiences they'd lived through, and a February balcony-deck replacement got a same-visit fix when the homeowner flagged one small detail. A separate February review on Trustindex describes a deck rebuilt in a week, with a frame problem found and corrected the next day. The company's Massachusetts home-improvement contractor license, number 203444, is currently active. The one thing worth asking about directly: OSHA has cited the company for a serious fall-protection violation, the kind tied to roof and ladder work. It's worth a direct question about current jobsite safety practices before signing anything, particularly for a roof job. For Cape Cod homeowners planning a deck rebuild, a full re-siding, or a roof paired with trim work, PLJ's recent track record backs up the reviews — just confirm the license is still current and ask how they handle fall protection on-site before work begins.
