Larkin Designs & Consulting is a design-and-build contracting company. Its Houzz profile, in the business's own words, says James Larkin has designed and built structures on the East and West coast for nearly 30 years, and lists services including home additions, remodeling, custom homes and garage building. A 2022 customer said the company built an addition for them that had several issues: the entry door didn't close properly, the trim was uneven and pieced together, the ridge vent was falling off, and the roof trim was not done correctly. That 2022 customer said they took care of most of the issues themselves and asked the company to fix the roof, and was asked to pay an additional $800, which the customer refused. The same 2022 customer said there was then no response at all, and advised anyone hiring them to inspect everything before making final payment.
I had several issues with an addition this company built for me. Entry door didn’t close properly. I fixed it. Trim was uneven and pieced together. Still there. Ridge vent falling off, still as he left it. Roof trim not done correctly. I took care of most issues and asked they fix the roof. First they try to charge me an additional $800. I shouldn’t have to pay for their poor quality so I refused. Now no response at all. If you do hire them you need to inspect EVERYTHING well BEFORE making final payment.
