JM Carpenter LLC

If you are looking for fast and reliable work combined with honesty and transparency, stop looking now - you’ve found your contractor! Josh gives you a fair estimate that lays out all the costs, he over-communicates, and delivers high quality projects. He used to make cabinets so his attention to detail and finishing work is far better than other contractors I’ve worked with in the past. If issues arise as you move through your project-like timing for labor or materials-he manages them quickly and calmly. He is as genuine as it gets and someone I truly enjoy working with. I really couldn’t imagine working with anyone else at this point. He literally does it all, plumbing, electrical, full home remodels, ADUs…the list goes on. Josh and his team are rockstars!!!

Unbeatable price:performance and communication. Communication: Very calm, thoughtful, accommodative, responsive and solution focused - be 100% transparent and you get 100% transparency back. I shared my circumstances with him and he talked me through what options exist, what it would cost, and the risks and benefits of each approach. Ultimately due to my budget, we decided to take it slower and drop in timeslots for work on my deck between his other projects and life happenings. I was never in the dark and he never did anything without first consulting me on the situation, my options, and the costs of each route. Everything goes on paper and is line itemized for easy reference as well. Scheduling: Scheduling was relatively flexible and dynamic. A couple delays happened due to theft of his tools and my supplier lagging on shipments of parts, but there was strong communication around it and rescheduling anything was a breeze. Performance: I think due to the nature of the way we did scheduling, there were days where we went a little slower because we were a bit tired, and that's totally fine. The work was done in a measured, methodical fashion. He showed what he planned to do for different steps and then did exactly that. Demolition was clean, the jobsite was always clean as well. Out of the entire project there were a couple rough cuts, but they are really hard to notice even with scrutiny. Considering the price of the work and the fact that of 9 bids on the project, his was the second lowest, I'm extremely happy. Not only did he do what was on the bid, but he noticed that removing the railing left a lot of exposed unpainted wood and trim on the house, and he offered to repaint the raw spots as well as the adjacent door and window trim to make things look a lot fresher. In that process he noticed the casements didn't have caulking or insulation, so he fixed that as well. I offered to pay for that since it was above and beyond, but the fact he wanted to do that to make sure everything looked its best is a huge reason I'll keep working with Juan on future projects. Price: This was a second story 10x10 deck. No structural work needed to be done since i was just redecking with new railings. His bid was the second lowest with all the higher bids going 22-300% above his and the lower bid being only about 20% lower (but the person making the bid didn't have a personality I felt comfortable working with) Again, super happy and will work with again any chance I get.

I hired JM Carpenter LLC for second time!!! I needed a section of 45 year old clear cedar ceiling replaced. The trick was to make the new ceiling match as closely as possible the original ceiling. Juan did an amazing job and I’m thrilled. He is also great to work with and communicates from beginning to end. The price was totally fair for the high quality and timeliness. My husband is a woodworker and advised me that the job was technically done right. (Not that I had any doubts, Juan is honest.) If you want quality and peace of mind I HIGHLY recommend JMCarpenter LLC.

JM Carpenter LLC did an excellent job on all of my projects. The first project the company did was a repair of a door to a bedroom that did not close easily when you pulled it shut. The next project involved repairing a dresser, repairing a fence that blew down in a windstorm, and patching holes in my walls. Currently I have JM Carpenter LLC doing work to repair the siding on my house as well as doing some demolition projects and I am very pleased to recommend this company to anyone looking for a carpenter. The pricing is very generous and the work done is truly world-class carpentry by the best company in the business. The owner of the company is fun to work with and he completes the projects extremely efficiently to ensure the safety and quality of the house. I could not be more pleased with the work done and I plan to continue to use the services offered by JM Carpenter LLC well into the future. Overall I would recommend JM Carpenter LLC to anyone looking for a carpenter for their home.

Creative way it was renovated. Looks like the deck had always been that way.
