Jfb Construction Carpintry

A homeowner who had already tried a couple of contractors on a roof leak nobody could solve wrote in August 2026 that JFB was there the following Monday. Several reviewers bring up price, and favorably: "the best we found" on a brick-step rebuild, "extremely reasonable" on a deck repair, fair and honest on a chimney job. JFB Construction is a family-owned North Shore contractor out of Lynn, and its site names Salem, Beverly, Marblehead, Danvers and Peabody alongside it, with masonry, roofing, siding, remodeling, concrete, decks and snow removal offered to houses and commercial properties. Angi lists a Massachusetts trade licence number, 194392, for the company, along with emergency and Spanish-language service. Much of what customers describe is rot and weather damage. In August 2026 a Thumbtack customer had rotted posts on a side porch pulled out and replaced inside a single day, painted and primed, with a trellis shifted from one side of the porch to the other when they asked. An Angi reviewer the same month had winter-damaged front brick steps completely rebuilt and refinished, on time. Another had deck stairs taken apart for rot and wrote that JFB kept them advised of issues by text with pictures and left the work area neat. Being able to reach someone comes up too. A deck-repair customer in August 2026 said the owner answered the phone every time they called with a question, and the crew cleaned up well at the end. In September 2026, a homeowner who hired JFB only to inspect gutters said they were on time and answered everything asked. The ratings sit at 5.0 from 32 on Google and 5.0 from eight on Angi, with Thumbtack at 4.7 across ten ratings, one of them two stars. A Thumbtack customer in June 2025 mentioned "a little misunderstanding at first" on a porch repair before saying JFB came through and calling the quality superior. For exterior repair work — rotted decks and porches, brick steps, gutters, a leak someone else could not pin down — this is a straightforward call.
