Tigo Builders Inc.

Falmouth's Tigo Builders is the outfit Cape homeowners call when the job is bigger than a single room — additions that add bedrooms and baths, whole-house exterior rebuilds, second homes gutted and put back together. Google's 26 ratings average 5.0, and its five Houzz reviews do the same. The company says founder Thiago started in the trades at 21 and has 16-plus years behind him, with Rachel running the office. Its BBB profile names Thiago Chaves as president and dates incorporation to 9/19/2019. Massachusetts registry records show the home improvement contractor registration under Chaves is active, and BBB grades the non-accredited profile A+, with no complaints or government actions posted. What the people who hired them keep describing is scope and sequencing. In a 2024 review, a Martha's Vineyard homeowner listed an addition off two back bedrooms, a half bath, a rebuilt main bathroom, a three-season porch, a new deck, a shed, fresh shingles on walls and roof, and plumbing and electrical redone to code. A Dennis second-home owner writing in 2024 swapped a stairless wooden deck for composite with new stairs, lighting and an under-deck ceiling, and stressed how easily it ran remotely. A residential contractor from New York, also in 2024, hired the crew to gut and rebuild a bathroom, bedroom, closets and hallway after a plumbing leak, and noted they crawled under the house to foam the insulation. A January 2026 client building at a second home from the other side of the country credited the team with keeping them informed day to day. The most recent account, from March 2026, is a siding job where the homeowner changed the plan several times and singled out Thiago's patience. And in a 2024 review, a customer building three decks said the itemized material and labor pricing came in below other bids with no hidden extras — worth asking them to repeat that for your own scope. Two things to pin down before booking. The site claims 16 years in business while the BBB profile dates the corporation to 2019, so ask what that number counts — the founder's time in the trades, or the company's. And several of the five-star posts come from people who worked alongside the crew rather than hired it: a cleaning company, a photographer, a collaborator describing a partnership. Weigh the homeowner accounts separately. The Construction Supervisor number CS-114050 shows up on the BBB and Houzz listings; the home improvement registration is the one confirmed in the state registry. Right call for a Cape Cod addition, a full kitchen or bath remodel, or a second home that needs a builder you can trust unsupervised. Confirm crew size against your timeline — BBB's profile lists one employee — and get the itemized breakdown in writing.
