J&E Construction

J&E Construction is a Lynn-based carpentry outfit run by Joel (also called Johel) Chavez, six years in business, and it's built a strong Thumbtack track record: 4.9 stars from 65 ratings, hired 82 times, a Top Pro badge, and a background-checked owner. The five most recent reviews, all from early 2026, describe the same pattern: fast, thorough work with real attention to the details that matter. A homeowner said Joel gave an on-the-spot quote for an interior door and had it installed the next day — "couldn't have asked for a smoother experience." Days later, another reviewer described a bigger job — every bedroom and closet door removed, reframed, replaced, plus a stained threshold — finished in one day with fair pricing and good cleanup. Another customer had temporary rear-entry steps replaced with new ones and a bad door swapped for a weather-sealed replacement, plus a round handrail added for a family member with arthritis. One review covered trim removal and drywall work after an old paneled wall came down, and another, on a stair-and-crawl-space project, praised the crew for listening to the homeowner's vision and suggesting improvements. Beyond doors, stairs and trim, the company also lists deck work and floor installation/replacement among its services. With a deep, recent and consistently positive review history — and nothing negative on record — this reads as a dependable pick for carpentry work at the scope these reviews describe.
