Hello, I am James Gibbs, sole proprietor of JG Carpentry. I have been building, repairing and renovating homes in Essex county for over 30 years. My primary goal is to satisfy my customer's needs and budget. I work alone, so I only take on smaller jobs as this allows me to focus on getting things done quickly and efficiently. I hold an unrestricted Construction Supervisor's License and Home Improvement Contractor license in MA and am fully insured. I am experienced in all aspects of residential construction, specializing in interior remodeling and custom built-in installation. I am willing to work with older homes, repairing ill-fitting doors and windows, squeaky stairs and floors, etc. I spent 6 years as a construction foreman in the film industry, and am always willing to take on creative or unusual projects. All my work is done in accordance with local building laws, and all jobs must have a contract signed by both parties before work can begin. No plumbing or electrical work.
"James had to remove some sections of rotten wood at the front entrance first and replace with new material before he could remove an old storm door and replace it with a new full view storm door with new hardware. The front entrance looks great and works great. I will call James for any work I have in and around my house as he does excellent work."

"Avoid! Capital?s quote was significantly more than others but they stated it was due to ?quality? of work and reputation. Lies! The project (yard drainage, pavers) took months and is still a full mess! Attached are photos- I was gaslighted stating that I was ?impossible to please? and would ?never be happy?- judge the work for yourself! Project was over $40,000 and this is what they found acceptable! If you still choose them (?) then make sure an attorney reads anything you sign as every minuscule detail must be written or they will not take any responsibility! And read financing terms very carefully as they scroll through the contract speaking but the content does NOT match what they spew! Then the threats start demanding approval for the terrible, incomplete job. You?ll be ignored and ghosted once they get their money after placing in writing the modifications that will (not) occur!"

Here at RP General Services, we are a locally owned and operated company that values honesty and integrity and treats your home as if it were our own. We offer a variety of quality home improvement services. You will find us to be competitively priced with close attention to the details of each and every project that we are involved with.
"Ricardo was the first to respond and bid on our project that involved removal of a small front entrance deck with a more spacious one, to include an overhanging roof. His bid was the best and we thought very reasonable. He patiently helped us through the red tape with our town Zoning and Conservation boards; a lengthy process. We signed a contract on 9/28/24 but only started on 12/26/24 due to the above process."

"We had a very large, failing retaining wall surrounding three sides of our property in Newton that required a complete replacement. I interviewed several contractors, some of whom backed out after seeing the scale of the project. Bruno and Junior Camara were the only ones who clearly had both the expertise and experience to take it on, and they also offered one of the most competitive bids. From the beginning, they were proactive and thoughtful. They collaborated directly with our structural engineer and landscaper several times to ensure the best possible solution and have provided helpful suggestions throughout the process. Both Bruno and Junior are highly responsive—available via email, phone, or text—and have even taken the time to reassure our neighbors when needed. Their crew is the hardest-working team I’ve ever seen. They start promptly at 8 a.m., typically work until around 6:30 p.m., clean up thoroughly each day, and only take a single lunch break. Beyond their work ethic,"
