James Gibbs Carpentry

James Gibbs describes himself as the sole proprietor of JG Carpentry, building, repairing and renovating homes in Essex county for over 30 years. He says he works alone, so he only takes on smaller jobs. His MA HIC license 176419 is active on the state registry, and MA CS license CS-110001 is expired on the state registry. In 2022, James removed sections of rotten wood at a front entrance and replaced them with new material before replacing an old storm door with a new full view storm door with new hardware; the front entrance “looks great and works great.” Also in 2022, he replaced the seals and insulation on 3 exterior doors and a garage connecting door. In a 2022 window sill replacement, the window and surrounding structural elements turned out to be in much worse condition than anticipated; James gave several options on how best to proceed, communicated clearly on the work he would do and stayed within budget. The window came out so nicely that he was immediately hired for a more extensive project repairing a rotted beam. In 2021, James was easy to work with, worked cleanly and was always on time across multiple jobs.
