JMR Contracting Inc

JMR Contracting is a Lynn-based roofing and exterior crew run by Melvin, who reviewers describe as personally answering calls and running estimates himself. Its written record spans 2023 to 2026 — 14 reviews, all five stars, with two more landing in just the last six months. The jobs described get specific. In a 2026 review, a homeowner describes a full exterior overhaul — continuous exterior insulation, new siding, PVC trim around the windows, plus new plywood decking and shingles on the roof — finished in a couple of days with attention to close-up detail. In a 2025 review, another customer describes a full reroof completed in a single day, with Melvin's team sending permit updates, aerial photos, and progress shots throughout, and leaving the yard cleaner than they found it. In a 2024 review, a homeowner who'd spent months unable to find anyone for a chimney repair says Melvin came out the same day he called, quoted within two hours, and had the work done the following week. Pricing comes up as a consistent draw: in a 2024 review, one reviewer got a gutter-repair quote that beat two competitors and had the work finished ahead of a coming storm; others describe coming in right on budget for full roof replacements. There's nothing negative in the record to flag, and Thumbtack lists the company with a background-checked credential. Several of the shorter reviews are just a word or two ('Professional', 'Good price'), so the deeper, more specific accounts carry more weight in this read. For a full roof replacement, a siding job, or an overdue chimney repair, JMR's documented jobs look responsive and specific — worth confirming current licensing directly, since the record here doesn't include a verified state registration.
