True Construction

True Construction is a Quincy, MA contractor built around roofing and waterproofing — repairs, leak fixes, and full roof systems — run out of 51 Holmes Street. BBB's file on the company traces it to a specific start date, January 2011, with Michael True listed as owner. The handful of public reviews is thin, but consistent: they describe hands-on troubleshooting — tracking down a leak that's hard to trace and fixing it without ripping into the house — rather than generic praise. That's echoed by the ratings: a 4-star average on Google (from just 3 ratings) and 4.8 stars on Houzz (from 6). Both are small samples, so treat the stars as a starting point, not a verdict. One thing worth clearing up before hiring: Houzz lists True Construction as a BBB Accredited Business, badge included, but BBB's own profile for the company says the opposite — it is NOT accredited, carries a 'Not Rated' status, and shows no complaint history on file. That's a real discrepancy worth asking about directly, not a rounding error. The Houzz page separately cites a Lead-Safe EPA certification and a Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor registration — worth asking to see documentation for either. This reads like a small, owner-run shop suited to a leak you can't pin down or a roof that needs patching rather than replacing outright, more than a large-scale remodel with a long paper trail to review. Given how few public reviews exist, ask for a couple of recent, local references before booking.
