Hello, I am James Gibbs, sole proprietor of JG Carpentry. I have been building, repairing and renovating homes in Essex county for over 30 years. My primary goal is to satisfy my customer's needs and budget. I work alone, so I only take on smaller jobs as this allows me to focus on getting things done quickly and efficiently. I hold an unrestricted Construction Supervisor's License and Home Improvement Contractor license in MA and am fully insured. I am experienced in all aspects of residential construction, specializing in interior remodeling and custom built-in installation. I am willing to work with older homes, repairing ill-fitting doors and windows, squeaky stairs and floors, etc. I spent 6 years as a construction foreman in the film industry, and am always willing to take on creative or unusual projects. All my work is done in accordance with local building laws, and all jobs must have a contract signed by both parties before work can begin. No plumbing or electrical work.
"James had to remove some sections of rotten wood at the front entrance first and replace with new material before he could remove an old storm door and replace it with a new full view storm door with new hardware. The front entrance looks great and works great. I will call James for any work I have in and around my house as he does excellent work."

To avoid damaging the surface of wood and composite decks, use a pressure washer with a maximum of 1,300 PSI. For metal or decks made of extra hard surfaces, you can go up to 2,300 PSI. Staying within these limits helps remove stubborn dirt and stains without harming your deck.
Yes, it's a good idea to pressure wash your deck before staining it. A thorough cleaning by a pressure washing professional removes dirt, mildew, and old paint or stain, ensuring the new stain adheres properly and looks great. A clean deck also means the stain will last longer and better protect your deck.
Determining whether to use soap when pressure washing your deck depends on the extent of soiling. For lightly soiled decks, water alone may suffice; however, heavy dirt and oily residues demand a specialized, deck-safe detergent. Using the right soap enhances the cleaning process by breaking down stubborn grime while safeguarding the deck’s surface.
The optimal time to pressure wash your deck is in the spring or fall. In spring, cleaning eliminates winter mold and accumulated dirt, while in fall, it removes greasy spills before the cold sets in. Scheduling cleaning during these periods not only enhances your deck’s appearance but also preserves its integrity and reduces long-term maintenance costs.
If your deck was recently stained or sealed, you do not need to apply a new sealant immediately. However, if several years have passed since the last resealing, pressure washing effectively removes old sealant and prepares the surface for a fresh coat. Resealing protects against moisture intrusion and prolongs the deck’s lifespan, ensuring a durable and even finish.
