About JR Carpentry & Drywall installation

I’m Josh! I’m a union carpenter of nearly 10 years now. Im 27 years old and proud of what I’ve been able to do with my career and im ready to take my personal small business to the next level. I’m currently a foreman in my regular place of work and I absolutely love what I do. I enjoy doing siding, interior and exterior finish carpentry, door installation and repair, vinyl and hardwood flooring, cabinet installation, drywall installation, interior painting, metal and wood stud wall framing, I’m a HUGE fan of doing accent walls like wainscoting, ship lap, acoustical panels and other similar stuff. I just love doing small construction projects and remodels! I’m all about doing the right thing and keeping my customers happy. I have a 160$ MINIMUM CHARGE. Even for tiny handyman tasks. This is for travel, my time, and usage of my tools. I DO NOT do drywall taping and mudding, i only hang it which I am very skilled at. I also do not do texturing, and I DO NOT do wall or ceiling patching. Do not send me a lead for that. DO NOT contact me to fix your plumbing or electrical problems. Hire a licensed plumber or electrician. DO NOT contact me for your HVAC issues. Hire a licensed HVAC technician DO NOT contact me for your homes mechanical issues, I am not licensed for that type of work and receiving those leads waste both my time and my money (leads cost money) and I cannot stress that enough. Once again, leads cost money. If you are rude to me on the phone or during an inquire over messaging then I’m going to tell you to kick rocks with a helpful smile. I won’t work for people who can’t learn manners. I take a lot of pride in what I do! I am a professional at my craft, and would like to help your projects come to life! please do not waste my time and my money, thanks! All material/material delivery fees are at the customers expense.

Josh was on time, professional and did a very good job. Birds had dug a hole in the exterior wall of my house. He patched it up and did a super job

Had Josh come out to help with some wall hangings and a couple patches. He did a great job and was very courteous. Gave me plenty peace of mind.

It was a very difficult vanity. It took people almost 24 hours to build. It only took him 3 1/2.

Josh did an excellent job installing a new door for us. He showed up exactly when he said he would, communicated clearly throughout the entire process, and handled the work with real skill and care. The finished door looks great, fits perfectly, and immediately made a world of difference. He was respectful of the property, worked efficiently, and made sure everything was cleaned up before leaving. It’s rare to find someone who’s both professional and easy to work with, and Josh definitely is. I’d absolutely use him again for future projects and would recommend him without hesitation.

Josh responded very quickly to my project request, arrived on time, and did an amazing job installing three wall mounted retractable baby gates right before Thanksgiving so our little family members could have a safe holiday. He had a keen eye for detail, ensuring the gates were level when they pulled closed and offered valuable suggestions for how to best mount them around base boards and handrails. Professional, experienced, high quality work - we’re definitely contacting Josh for future home projects again!

Josh is great to work with and got exactly what I needed done. We’ve already talked about the projects yet to come!

Great communication and very easy to convey your ideals and expectations. I will be calling JS general in the future.

I had a window well that was in my patio area at a property I own. It was a tripping hazard so I needed help to make the area safer to walk on. I had a short timeframe to work with to get everything fixed. Josh was able to squeeze me into his schedule for the next day. He cleaned the window well out, filled with gravel, and cleaned the area for me. He was punctual, followed all of my instructions, and paid attention to detail. I appreciate his ability accurately follow instructions and communicate with me throughout the process. I am very happy with his work and my guests are happy too!! I will not hesitate to contact him again to help with any work that I need done. Thank you Josh!!
