A&K Remodeling

A&K Remodeling works out of 92 Squannacook Rd in Shirley, Massachusetts, and its listed owner is Francis Dolan. The clearest picture of what this company actually does comes from its permit trail rather than from customers. Fourteen filed jobs run from 2014 through 2024 and spread across the state — additions and porch work in Lowell, a patio door and framing in Westford, a basement wall in Groton, a kitchen remodel with window replacement in Chelmsford, alteration work in Ashland and Belmont, a rear deck in Fitchburg — and, on 17 May 2024, a $16,500 bathroom remodel at 4 Briarwood Ln in Middleton. Its own description of the range is blunt: additions down to handyman services, with remodels, decks, kitchens and baths, windows and doors in between. BuildZoom lists it across custom home building, multi-room and whole-home remodels, kitchens, baths, basements, decks and porches, doors and windows, finish carpentry, cabinets, painting and small multi-family work. The customer record is thin and dated. One review exists, written in January 2020 by a homeowner whose bathroom the company remodeled: they were, in their words, on budget and very clean, and she said she would hire them again. That is a good account of a real job, but it is a single voice from six years ago, so ask for two or three recent local references before you rely on it. Two things need a direct answer before signing. BuildZoom shows a 'Verified License' badge stating a Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor licence plus one other, described as active when it last checked — but it prints no licence number, so ask for the number and check it yourself with the state. And displayed right beside that badge is an 'Alert - Unpaid Debt' flag; the profile gives no detail on what it refers to, so ask the owner directly what it is and whether it has been resolved.
