Larry Adam is a proven professional with over 35 years in
construction. His interest in the industry began at Berks Career and
Technology Center, where he graduated from in 1987 with a certificate
in carpentry skills. He spent the last two years of his time at BCTC
getting hands-on experience through a co-op program that allowed him
to work for a custom remodeler. Larry then graduated from Lincoln
Technical Institute with an Associate’s degree in Architectural
Drafting. From there, he worked as an Architectural Draftsman /
Designer for a custom home builder for five years.
Larry is well-rounded, with additional experience as an Estimator and
Purchasing Manager for Berks Products. He worked there for 12 years,
becoming an expert on windows, doors and interior millwork. Larry also
worked 12 years at Kohl Building Products, spending two years as a
window and door specialist, another two years as a commercial
territory sales rep with a focus on window and door products for
multi-family projects, and eight years managing the company’s Reading branch.
In September of 2015, Larry joined our team as a Residential
Estimator. From here, he transitioned into a Residential Project
Manager and Sales role, focusing on new homes and remodels. In January
of 2021, Larry became the Director of Residential Construction,
managing the entire residential division, and in March of 2022 he was
promoted to Vice President of Residential Construction.
In his spare time, you can find Larry doing more residential
construction related work – just on a more personal note. In 1990, he
and his wife bought a home that was built in 1838 and hadn’t received
a remodel since the early 1970s. They have completely remodeled the
inside of their home over the last 28 years. Just three years ago they
purchased the other half of the home and have been busy updating the
other side ever since.
