Jose. Nearly every one of the 92 Google ratings behind CJ Home Services' 4.9 average names him, and a striking number of those reviewers are on their second or third job with the crew. The Lynn company works across Greater Boston — condos in Southie, East Boston and Dorchester, houses out toward Saugus and Lunenburg — on projects that touch several trades at once. The current work runs to whole-room and whole-house renovation. A May 2026 customer calls them their go-to contractors and says a renovation they had been nervous about ended up feeling like having extra family in the house. In April 2026 a homeowner had a full remodel done: interior painting, new trim and baseboards, new vinyl flooring, and a complete bathroom renovation. A March 2026 basement renovation drew notes about the crew arriving on time and keeping the work area clean. Bathrooms and basements are the spine. An October 2024 reviewer had a full bathroom gutted and rebuilt and a built-in kitchen desk replaced with a pantry. In a 2023 review, a homeowner described a bathtub pulled out for a tiled walk-in shower, a second tile shower added to a basement half bath, and every wall and ceiling repainted. Basement finishing recurs constantly — a June 2024 customer singled out the stairs and the craftsmanship; an October 2025 update described a quick turnaround with the crew showing up at 8am every day and working through. Carpentry is the other constant. Reviews from August 2025 describe a built-in wall with an electric fireplace and a kitchen banquette fabricated for a new East Boston condo, a new set of back stairs paired with a re-shingled shed, and a rotted kitchen cabinet base repaired at what the customer called fair pricing. A November 2025 homeowner hired them to repaint an overdue exterior and said they identified deteriorated clapboard and trim that needed carpentry once they got into it. Two one-star reviews are in there and both are worth reading. An October 2024 painting customer wrote that several spots on the walls were missed and that fixing it meant hiring someone else. A February 2025 review from an elderly Saugus homeowner with fibromyalgia concerns a pellet-stove cleaning she called about because she relies on the stove for heat. Against those: 86 reviews since 2021 across six sources, with five reviews in the last six months and none negative. A strong fit for bathrooms, basement build-outs, finish carpentry, and paint-plus-repair packages on condos and multifamily property — several landlords in the reviews use them again and again. On painting specifically, agree up front on what a walkthrough and touch-up pass covers, since that is where the one workmanship complaint lands.
