Dean A Lacostic Bldg Remodeling

Thirteen permits, sixteen years, zero reviews. Dean A Lacostic Bldg Remodeling works out of 55 Carleton St in Haverhill, and the permit trail reads like the diary of a New England renovation carpenter: porches and decks, room additions, kitchen and bathroom remodels, spread across Haverhill, Methuen, Salisbury, Newburyport and Hingham. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, number 192551, is active — confirmed against the state registry, not just a directory's word. BuildZoom separately lists a construction supervisor license, CS-060246, which it says it saw as active in June 2026; that one is the directory's check rather than ours. The company says it has 16 years behind it. Two things are worth raising before you call. An older Massachusetts home improvement registration, #114647, shows as cancelled — a lapsed registration is a different fact from never having needed one, so ask what happened there. And a handful of Newton city licenses on the profile were last seen with December 2022 expirations, which BuildZoom never re-verified. The bigger gap is silence: nobody has published anything about hiring them. No accounts of how a job was run, whether the schedule held, or how a change order got handled. For a porch rebuild, a deck, or an addition where a construction supervisor license actually matters, the credentials and permit history are real. Ask for recent customer references and photos from the last year or two, since there is nothing public to read.
