Verified record
Evans Custom Carpentry is a North Shore, MA design/build carpentry firm run by Jim, self-described on Houzz as having 35 years in business (Angi's own profile says 41). The two written reviews on file, both from June 2018, are the fullest picture of the work: one homeowner called Jim professional, smart and very good at what he does, and a business client described a major remodel completed for a production studio that had to stay open for clients throughout, calling the quality of the contracting work outstanding and noting he's also done home projects for them since. Beyond those two reviews, Houzz shows a 5.0 rating from 5 reviews and Angi a 5.0 from 2, though the additional review text isn't available here. The firm's own listings describe kitchen and bath remodeling, additions, tile and natural-stone installation, custom finish carpentry, interior painting, and electrical and plumbing work, plus a self-reported (unverified) Construction Supervisor license and a self-listed Bostinno "Top 10 Rooftop Deck" mention. Worth knowing before calling: the business address differs between directories — Georgetown on Houzz, Topsfield on Angi — so it's worth confirming the current location and license number directly, and asking for more recent references since the written record here dates to 2018.
Had a major remodel for a business that needed high quality work while remaining open, so our clients can come and go. He has done virtually every bit of contracting work we needed for our production studio. Quality of his work is outstanding. He has also done a number a job for me at home as well.
Jim is very professional, smart and funny. Very good at what he does.
