GJ Handyman Home Services Inc

GJ Handyman Home Services is Gilson Jorge's Milford operation, and the written record spans small fixes and bigger projects — with one clear miss along the way worth knowing about. On the positive side, reviews describe real range: in a 2023 review, a customer credits Gilson with guiding a conversion of a flat rubber roof to a slanted shingled roof, offering suggestions and asking questions along the way. A 2022 review describes a deck built exactly as promised, on schedule and reasonably priced. A 2019 review describes a crew installing gutter accessories and a door and fixing several other items in a single visit, working fast and respectfully. A 2024 review, the most recent on file, describes a prompt, professional repair of a broken attic stair spring and hinge. The one clear miss: in a January 2020 review, a customer described a log fence that didn't match the original, a shed repaired with nails an inch and a half too long that poked through the interior in multiple spots, and trim work with other visible problems — the company responded to the review, but defensively rather than acknowledging the issues, per the platform's own account. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration has expired on the state registry — worth confirming directly before hiring, since general handyman and carpentry work of this kind does require it. Its own directory profile also claims 22 years of industry experience, which conflicts with a separate 11-years badge shown on the same platform. The Better Business Bureau lists the business without a published rating or complaint count; its file has been open since late 2020. This is a mixed but not thin record — a real range of completed jobs, mostly praised, alongside one documented instance of subpar materials and workmanship. Confirm current licensing, get the scope and materials specified in writing, and ask about that 2020 complaint directly before a larger project.
