## Your protections under Massachusetts law

These rules cover home improvement work on existing, owner-occupied homes with one to four units. They apply to any registered contractor, so use them to compare anyone you're thinking of hiring.

- **A written contract.** Work over $1,000 needs one, with the work, materials, total price and payment schedule ([M.G.L. c. 142A, s. 2](https://malegislature.gov/Laws/GeneralLaws/PartI/TitleXX/Chapter142A/Section2)).
- **A deposit limit.** No more than one-third of the price, or the actual cost of special-order materials if that's higher. [How the deposit rule works](https://magnoandco.com/blog-contractor-deposit-massachusetts)
- **Time to cancel.** If you sign at home, you have until midnight of the third business day to cancel in writing ([M.G.L. c. 93, s. 48](https://malegislature.gov/Laws/GeneralLaws/PartI/TitleXV/Chapter93/Section48)).
- **Changes in writing.** Any change to the contract must be written and agreed by both sides. [What a good change order includes](https://magnoandco.com/blog-construction-change-order)
- **The state Guaranty Fund.** If you win an award or judgment against a registered contractor and can't collect it, you can apply for up to $25,000 of your actual loss. It's for your primary home, and you lose this protection if you pull the permit yourself. [Who qualifies](https://magnoandco.com/blog-massachusetts-hic-guaranty-fund)

## Frequently asked questions

Is Magno & Co licensed in Massachusetts?

Yes. Mateus holds an unrestricted Massachusetts Construction Supervisor License (CS-123658, valid through 10/17/2029), and Magno and Co LLC is a registered Home Improvement Contractor (HIC #220484, active through 7/7/2028).

Why does the state show a different last name?

Mateus Magno is the name I use for work. State records use my full legal name, which has a different last name, so search by license number. Same person.

How do I check a Massachusetts contractor myself?

Both state searches are free. Use the Contractor Hub for the HIC number and the state's license check for the Construction Supervisor number. Then read recent reviews on a site the contractor doesn't control.

Can I see copies of your licenses and certificates?

Yes. Ask me and I'll send them.
