J. Burgess Construction

J. Burgess Construction is a Plymouth, Massachusetts-based remodeling and construction company founded in 2015 and run by owner Jon Burgess, serving Plymouth and nearby South Shore towns including Kingston, Duxbury, Carver, Bourne and Falmouth. The company describes itself as a full-service outfit handling kitchens, bathrooms, additions, ADUs, decks, siding and basement remodeling. The 18 Google reviews on file, spanning 2022 through 2026, are remarkably consistent: reviewers across those years describe Jon and his crew as responsive, punctual and easy to reach, with several noting he returns calls promptly and shows up when he says he will. Basement finishing comes up repeatedly and in detail — homeowners describe full basement transformations, including one 2025 review naming crew members Josh and Marcus and describing a new "bonus room," and a 2022 review crediting Jon with turning a basement into "one of my favorite areas" in the home. Deck building draws similarly specific praise, with two separate reviewers, in 2023 and 2022, describing fair, competitive quotes and prompt completion. A 2023 review describes a same-day roof repair after storm damage, with Jon replacing the back of the roof — new ply boards, a waterproof liner and shingles — the day the leak was found. Other reviews describe a full second-floor bathroom remodel, window removal and installation of an ocean-front slider door, and built-in cabinetry alongside a deck project. Several reviewers mention hiring the business more than once over the years, a meaningful sign of repeat trust. Worth asking about before booking: nearly every review comes from one platform, Google, where the business holds a 5-star average across 25 ratings; the only other listing found online is a BuildZoom profile carrying generic directory text rather than an independent customer review, so there is no second platform to compare against. Two reviewers also describe hiring Jon for seasonal snow plowing rather than remodeling work, a reminder the crew takes on some jobs outside its core trades. Given the volume, consistency and specificity of the reviews — named crew members, distinct projects, and homeowners recurring across multiple jobs and years — this looks like a genuine, well-earned local reputation rather than a thin or generic one. J. Burgess Construction is a solid call for a South Shore homeowner planning a basement, deck, bathroom or roof project, particularly given the repeat business; it is worth confirming current licensing and insurance directly, since neither was independently verified here.
