# Lighthouse Home and Design

**Trade:** General Contractor / Remodeling · **Address:** 13 Jordan St, Beverly, MA 01915, USA · **Phone:** (978) 836-6159 · **Website:** https://www.lighthousehomeanddesign.com/contact-us/ · **Languages:** English

**Rating: 3.5/5** (low confidence) — from 1 reviews across 4 sources. A 0–5 star rating built from what customers and the public say (every review and mention weighted by where it was posted, how old, how detailed and how credible it is, shrunk toward a 3.5★ baseline when evidence is thin) plus what the record shows (Reddit recommendations or warnings, a registry-verified licence, how recently they were reviewed, customer work photos, BBB grade, negative news, a revoked licence). Positive record counts only as far as the reviews have earned it; penalties count in full. Confidence describes how much weighted evidence stands behind the number, never the number itself: low when fewer than about five normal reviews' worth of weight (or mentions only) support it, medium up to about twenty, high beyond that across at least two sources. An operator flag for a suspicious review pattern caps a rating at 3.5★ and marks it low.

## The honest read

Lighthouse Home and Design is a Beverly, MA general contractor that says on its own site it's owner-operated, led by construction supervisors James Clarizia and Michael Fultz, and takes on home inspections, seasonal home care, handyman work, and interior and exterior renovations.

The one detailed account on file comes from an unusual source: a cabinet maker who measured a house Jimmy was building in a 2025 review and came away impressed, praising how accurate and level every line was, and calling him reliable, honest, and someone who keeps his word. That review is also the company's only Google rating: five stars.

Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor license is active. With only one review on record, it's worth asking for references from a recent project before booking, but a fellow tradesperson vouching for the underlying construction quality carries real weight in a field where most reviews come from homeowners rather than other builders.

**Strengths:**
- Precise, level construction — a cabinet maker praised the framing accuracy
- Reliable and honest — described as trustworthy and easy to deal with
