David Morin, Jr

Two 2023 permits at one West Newbury address say most of what David Morin, Jr takes on: a $315,950 rebuild of a second floor after water damage, and a $258,150 enclosed porch and sunroom addition at the same house. The business runs out of 15 Minot Ave in Haverhill and describes its own work as residential construction and remodeling with more than a decade of local experience. BuildZoom lists six permitted jobs, about three of them in the past three years. Alongside the West Newbury pair are an $84,000 rubber roof and interior demolition in Wakefield in 2024 and a $9,221 shed installation in Norwell in 2025 — a range that runs from a six-figure addition down to a backyard shed. BuildZoom also scores the business 97, which it places in the top 18% of the Massachusetts contractors it tracks, and lists kitchen, bathroom, basement and whole-home remodels alongside additions. Licensing is the piece to sort out first. Massachusetts registry records show the home improvement contractor registration #184724 as expired, and BuildZoom lists a Massachusetts construction supervisor licence, CS-108442. Ask whether the home improvement registration has been renewed, and check both numbers on the state's own register before signing anything. For an addition, a second-floor rebuild or a whole-home remodel around Haverhill, this is a builder who has pulled permits at that size. Get the registration question answered up front, ask for addresses and references from the recent jobs, and put scope, schedule and insurance in writing before any money moves.
