Kme Enterprises

Kme Enterprises works out of 190 Haverhill Street in Methuen, with Robert Armstrong named as owner and Robert D Armstrong as the responsible person on its BuildZoom listing. The work it advertises is whole-house scale: kitchens, bathrooms, basements, full-home remodels and additions. The permits tell you more than the marketing does. One Methuen job pulled at $127,800 covered demolishing an attached garage, pushing the kitchen five feet toward the back yard and adding a 35-by-22 single-storey master suite and family room with a wet bar — a proper multi-trade addition, not a handyman job. A second permit covers a strip-and-reroof with PVC trim replacement on another Methuen house. The public record is thin and dated. One written account exists — a single five-star 'Verified Hire' entry — and it is nearly a decade old, so there is no current customer voice to weigh. No other review platform, and no company website, turned up anything. The licensing picture needs a direct answer before you hire. BuildZoom lists Massachusetts registration #146855 for the company and shows it as inactive, with an expiration date in July 2018 and a note that the status was at one point cancelled; the same page carries an alert reading no active licence on file. That is the directory's account, not a confirmation from the state — but remodeling and additions are exactly the work Massachusetts requires home improvement contractor registration for, so this is not an exemption case. Ask them directly what registration they hold today and check it yourself at the Office of Consumer Affairs and Business Regulation before any money changes hands. If the permits reflect the kind of project you have, ask for recent addresses you can look at, proof of current registration and insurance, and references from jobs finished in the last year or two.
