Michael R Jones is a Lynnfield, MA home improvement contractor. Massachusetts home improvement contractor licence 174629 is active on the state registry, held by Michael R. Jones. In a 2013 Angi review, a customer called Mike a real pro and a finishing carpenter, and said he did some remodeling for them that turned out looking like a palace. In a 2018 BuildZoom review, a customer wrote that the work was not completed, that sign-offs from the Cambridge Building Department were not obtained, and that architects' plans were not followed. The same customer said he installed a new wall that was crooked and left out adequate insulation on an exterior wall, and that pipes and a bathtub drain froze. In a 2023 BuildZoom review, a customer called Michael Jones and his partner "scam artists" and said he still had not finished the job.

Michael Jones and his partner, Cheryl not sure what she does but they’re are scam artists they steal money to fill their pockets while taking shortcuts and doing for quality work and end up having to pay to get things done correctly and he still hasn’t finished at all he just leaves you without finishing the job
Did not complete work. Did not get sign offs from Cambridge Building Department. Did not follow architects plans. Does not respond. Overall sloppy. Very nice guy so hard to fault but something was not right. Examples: He installed a new wall that was crooked but blamed the 100 yr old out of plumb framing. He left out adequate insulation on exterior wall. Pipes and bathtub drain froze. While insulation not specified in contract and i paid to add insulation to all interior walls. he left out the exterior. However, he did not get insulation inspection from city. Don't know if inspection required.
Mike is a real pro. He is my #1 carpenter. He is a master and a finishing carpenter. I have nothing but great things to say about his work. He did some remodeling for us and it turned out looking like a palace.
