Its Massachusetts construction supervisor license, CS-065251, is active on the state registry, with Joseph DiPilato as the holder of record. A 2014 customer said they contacted Joe to add a wall of wainscoting in their family room, and that he came over right away and gave them a very reasonable price. That 2014 customer said Joe was booked ahead of the holidays but squeezed them in, came over with his crew and was finished in just a few days. The same 2014 customer wrote that they called Joe again to install a new front door and praised his finish woodworking on it. A 2014 customer who had Joe do some work on the exterior of their house said he helped them figure out a roofline they were trying to describe, and came up with a few ideas, one of which was exactly what they wanted. A 2018 customer wrote that they had hired L & J many times over the years, that they always showed up on time and stayed until the job was finished, and praised Joe's finish work.

We have hired L & J many times over the years. They have always showed up on time and stay until the job is finished. Their work is impeccable. Joe does a great job from quote to finish. this company is a contracting company can rely on. There are no surprises. They are in an out before you know it. Joe's finish work is amazing. Thank you, Joe, for all the wonderful work you've done for us. Our home is beautiful because of it! Patrice
We recently did a remodel in our family room and needed a finished carpenter to add a wall of wainscoting. We contacted Joe and he came over right away and gave us a very reasonable price to do the job. With the holidays right around the corner we didn't have high hopes of getting it done by Christmas. Joe was booked but said he'd do his best to squeeze us in so we were surprised he called us back and said he'd be there late the following week. Joe came over with his crew and was completely finished with the project in just a few days!! There are no words to express the gratitude we have for the quality and craftsmanship that was put into this job. We called Joe again to come and install a new front door and he did a beautiful job with the finish woodworking.
We had Joe do some work on the exterior of our house. He is very professional and so are his coworkers. Always on time. Very reasonable. Also very creative. He helped us to figure out a roofline we were trying to describe, but couldn't explain well. He came up with a few ideas, all were great, but one was exactly what we were hoping for. We would very highly recommend him.
