<a href="http://fingerprintboston.com" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Fingerprint Boston</a> is the appointment-based fingerprinting service for Greater Boston, southern New Hampshire and Rhode Island. Our office sits at 1215 Main Street in Tewksbury, Massachusetts, near the New Hampshire line, which makes us an easy drive for clients across the tri-state area.
We built this service around one idea. <a href="http://fingerprintboston.com" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Fingerprinting</a> should be careful, clear and respectful of your time. So we work by appointment, never as a crowded walk-in counter. You book a slot, your time is reserved and you walk straight in with no line. Most captures take about fifteen minutes in the chair.
Our services cover what local clients need. FBI background checks for immigration, adoption, licensing and personal review. Live scan for agencies and licenses that accept electronic submission. FD-258 ink cards for out-of-state and overseas agencies that require a physical card. We also provide a connection to apostille services for documents going abroad. We serve healthcare workers, teachers, childcare staff and volunteers, financial professionals, immigration applicants, adoptive families and anyone an employer or board has sent for prints.
A certified fingerprint technician handles your capture from start to finish. Every set is rolled by hand and graded against the FBI standard. A weak finger is re-rolled on the spot. That care is the difference between a single visit and a rejection that sends you back. Our technician is also a commissioned Massachusetts notary public, so you work with a credentialed professional who answers your questions.
We are honest about how we serve each area. Our office is in Tewksbury. Clients from Nashua, Manchester, Lowell, Lawrence, Andover and Dracut drive in for a clean capture. For Rhode Island and farther New Hampshire clients, much of our work, including FBI checks and ink cards, is handled by mail, so distance rarely matters. For businesses and groups, we bring the service on-site and print everyone in one visit.
Our pricing is posted in plain numbers. The FBI background check service fee is $125, live scan is $65 and an FD-258 ink card is $49.95, with each additional card $25. A service fee covers our work. The agency sets any government fee and tells you before we begin. No surprises at the counter.
Fingerprint Boston is operated by Biz International Corp, a Massachusetts business serving the community since 2007. We protect your prints and identity documents, use them only for your submission and never post fake reviews or borrowed credentials. Trust is the whole product in this work, so we earn it with careful captures and straight answers.
If you need fingerprinting in Massachusetts, New Hampshire or Rhode Island, book your appointment today and get it done right.
Booking is simple. Reserve a time on our website or by phone, bring a valid photo ID that matches your application along with any agency paperwork. We handle the rest. We confirm your required format before capturing, so your submission is accepted the first time. Real prints, real care, from a local service that treats your deadline as seriously as you do.

128 Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric Stays Independent

128 Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric

128 Announces Local Independent Ownership For Good One question that Ryan Williams, President of 128 Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, and Electric, keeps getting is: “Did you sell?” and the answer is always In recent years, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and other home services have seen significant consolidation. In Greater Boston, 128 is one of the only home service companies that remain local, private, and independently-owned. This led Williams to seek out organizations that aren't just in business to sell, but to thrive long-term. He found the Tugboat Institute®, focusing on value, purpose, and people-driven businesses planning to remain independently-owned for 100+ years through their Certified Evergreen® status. 128 applied with the help of its entire team and received the honor of becoming Certified Evergreen® a year later. Watch 128's announcement here: https://youtu.be/g5rsiZW7B1k?si=KeR42U8H9GXnCJkH Does this impact customers? Customers want reliability and support for years down the road from their home service company, and choosing an independently-owned company can reduce uncertainties. Does this impact tradespeople? Ownership can influence company culture, communication, alignment, and priorities. With a labor shortage, it's important there are industry leaders willing to continually invest in education, which 128 is proud to offer its own school. Choose Local and Independent. 128 is proud to announce its continued local and independent ownership to bring stability and confidence to employees, customers, and communities for generations. Williams states that "128 answers to its customers and employees, not investors", and is not for sale. 128 Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, and Electric was founded in 1992 and is a top home service company in Eastern MA. 128 is known for its 5-star service, base+ membership, Finish Strong Friday®, and its Red Sox partnership.

Choose an Austin Prep Education Rooted in Augustinian Values

Austin Preparatory School

Austin Preparatory School, located in Reading, Massachusetts, is an independent Catholic prep school rooted in the Augustinian tradition. Serving students in grades 6 through 12, Austin Prep has cultivated a close-knit learning community since its founding in 1961. Guided by its mission to inspire hearts to unite, minds to inquire, and hands to serve, the school challenges students through a rigorous college preparatory program that includes honors and Advanced Placement courses, personalized instruction, and intentionally small classes. An Austin Prep education is preparation for the journey of life. Beyond academics, the school’s unwritten curriculum – the lived expression of veritas, unitas, and caritas (truth, unity, and love) – forms the heart of its mission. “At Austin Prep, we are on a journey that is life-changing and important,” says Head of School James Hickey, Ph.D. “Our patron, St. Augustine, embarked on a journey for the truth. At our core is an institution on the same journey, committed to exemplary teaching and learning.” Serving grades 6–12 under one roof allows this leading prep school to guide students through every stage of development—academic, social, emotional, physical, and spiritual. Community stands at the center of this experience, nurturing belonging and inspiring students to lead lives of purpose. Austin Prep athletics teams, competing in the New England Preparatory School Athletic Council (NEPSAC), are recognized among the best north of Boston, reflecting the same drive and integrity found in the classroom. Nearly every graduate continues on to a four-year college, prepared not only for success in higher education but for a meaningful life shaped by faith, friendship, and service.
