J M Engineering

J M Engineering is a Malden, MA outfit built around masonry and design-build work — retaining walls, driveways and patios in stone, brick, concrete or asphalt, plus kitchen, bathroom and basement remodeling under one roof. Angi's listing says the company is run by a civil engineer who earned a master's degree in Italy, with 29 years of experience behind it. The written record is thin but pointed: two Angi reviews, both from 2004. One homeowner said the crew was 'outstanding in every way' building a brick retaining wall despite rainy weather, calling the finished wall beautiful and noting the same team handled everything from masonry to remodeling. Another reviewer that year said the job left them 'extremely impressed' and recommended the company without hesitation. Worth knowing before calling: those two 2004 reviews are the only ones on file, so there's little written record of anything more recent, and no license number or BBB history turned up on this profile to cross-check. For a retaining-wall or masonry job where a design-build approach beats piecing together separate trades, the old reviews are a reasonable starting point — just confirm current licensing, insurance and recent references directly before signing anything.
