Who can legally do this in Massachusetts
In Massachusetts, contractors and subcontractors who solicit, bid on or perform work on an existing, owner-occupied home with one to four units must register as a Home Improvement Contractor. A separate Construction Supervisor License, which requires an exam, is generally required for work on a building's structural elements. Some part-time and small jobs under $500 are exempt.
