I needed a section of 45 year old clear cedar ceiling replaced. The trick was to make the new ceiling match as closely as possible the original ceiling. Juan did an amazing job and I’m thrilled. He is also great to work with and communicates from beginning to end. The price was totally fair for the high quality and timeliness. My husband is a woodworker and advised me that the job was technically done right. (Not that I had any doubts, Juan is honest.) If you want quality and peace of mind I HIGHLY recommend JMCarpenter LLC. **★★★★★ — Joseph, May 2025** > JM Carpenter LLC did an excellent job on all of my projects. The first project the company did was a repair of a door to a bedroom that did not close easily when you pulled it shut. The next project involved repairing a dresser, repairing a fence that blew down in a windstorm, and patching holes in my walls. Currently I have JM Carpenter LLC doing work to repair the siding on my house as well as doing some demolition projects and I am very pleased to recommend this company to anyone looking for a carpenter. The pricing is very generous and the work done is truly world-class carpentry by the best company in the business. The owner of the company is fun to work with and he completes the projects extremely efficiently to ensure the safety and quality of the house. I could not be more pleased with the work done and I plan to continue to use the services offered by JM Carpenter LLC well into the future. Overall I would recommend JM Carpenter LLC to anyone looking for a carpenter for their home. **★★★★★ — DAVID DREISIN, Feb. 2024** > Responsive professional who delivered excellent work at an honest price. They worked outside in the elements knowing that I had to get this project done to get the house insured and they delivered as promised. Highly recommended. **Comment from JM Carpenter LLC:** > Hi David, > Thank you so much for your review. > I enjoyed working for you and let me know of any projects you have in the future. > Thanks-Juan **★★★★★ — Rick, Feb. 2024** > He was a pleasure to work with, I buy and sell houses for a living and will use them on future projects. **Comment from JM Carpenter LLC:** > Hi Rick, > Thank you for your review. > I enjoyed working for you and I look forward to doing more projects for you in the future. > Thanks-Juan **★★★★★ — sheryl b hansen, April 2023** > J M Carpenter did a great job replacing some rotten siding on my house. The weather was crappy and the job was small and I think a lot of contractors would have blown me off but JM Carpenter was on it. They did a great job and as the project proceeded they kept showing me the work they were doing which reassured me that it was done right. I will definitely hire this company again in the future. **Comment from JM Carpenter LLC:** > Hi Sheryl, > We are happy that the project was successful and we were happy to work for such a great customer. > Thank you for the kind review. > Thanks-Juan **★★★★★ — Mark, March 2023** > JM (Juan Marin) Carpenter LLC came out to my farm house in Damascus and built me a set of front porch railings and railings for the stairs as well. He charged me a totally reasonable amount for the work, and the work done was of high quality! I am extremely satisfied with his work and will absolutely use his services again in the near future as I have further work that needs to be done on another one of my properties in the area. **Comment from JM Carpenter LLC:** > Hi Mark, > It was a pleasure to work with you. > I am thrilled to hear that you were happy with the railings and I look forward to working with you in the future. > Thanks-Juan **★★★★★ — Chuck Rosson, March 2023** > Juan was great to work with on our project. He removed our front porch’s rotted out, 30 year old cedar decking and the underlying support structure where it had also rotted. He then proceeded to replace the stringers and add additional new stringers because we used TimberTech Coastline decking that is more flexible than cedar. He did a beautiful job replacing the decking using a hidden fastener system. The final product is beautiful, stable, and easy to maintain. Juan did all the work quickly, arrived on site as agreed, removed all the debris completely, and did this all for a reasonable price. We could not be happier with the end result and we would gladly call on Juan if needed for future projects. Timely, professional, and affordable - what more can you ask? **Comment from JM Carpenter LLC:** > Chuck thank you for the excellent review. > Building the deck was a blast and I am thrilled that you now have a great deck to use again. > Thanks-Juan **★★★★★ — Tom Goldsmith, March 2023** > Juan's work will exceed all expectations. He is a perfectionist, and makes any project look professionally completed. Juan is lovely to work with, and has an undeniable gift for carpentry. He can also do anything. Recommending him to prospective people who need his skills is the easiest recommend I ever made. **Comment from JM Carpenter LLC:** > Thanks for the great review Tom. > I had an excellent time working for you and if you need any help with future projects please let me know. > Thanks-Juan **★★★★★ — Shannon, March 2023** > Juan and his crew are on time, professional, efficient, and do great work! Will definitely work with Juan and his team again. They shaved the bottom of a door, did caulking work, installed new baseboards, patched a gap with carpentry work, and applied trim around an entryway to a kitchen. **Comment from JM Carpenter LLC:** > I am happy I was able to work for you. > You are a great person to work for and I am glad I could help you out. > Thanks-Juan **★★★★★ — Nic, Jan. 2022** > Great communication, made me and my questions feel valued. Very professional and impressive craftsmanship. Will definitely be using Juan on our next renovation project! **Comment from JM Carpenter LLC:** > Thanks Nic! > It was a pleasure to work for you and I hope to hear from you soon. **★★★★★ — Doors and trims, Aug. 2021** > Buen trabajo mis puertas y trims quedaron increíbles siempre lo que pedí lo hizo como yo quería > Muy respetuoso y confiable **Comment from JM Carpenter LLC:** > Muchas gracias Anita estamos para servirte hope to her from you soon **★★★★★ — Greg Gabica, July 2021** > Timely, efficient, friendly, and went above and beyond to complete tasks I wasn't charged for or asked him to. > > I do and have highly recommend JM LLC. **Comment from JM Carpenter LLC:** > Greg I had a wonderful time building your project for you. > Thank you for the kind review and let me know if you ever need a carpenter in the future. > Thanks-Juan ## Selected projects - [Finish Carpentry Work](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/finish-carpentry-work-pj-vj~7708155) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 9 - [Back Deck](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/back-deck-pj-vj~7708141) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Front Deck Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/front-deck-renovation-pj-vj~7440224) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Fence and small concrete work](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/fence-and-small-concrete-work-pj-vj~7381077) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [New Facia Board](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/new-facia-board-pj-vj~7381072) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - [Painting and new windows](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/painting-and-new-windows-pj-vj~7381068) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Small projects and siding repair](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/small-projects-and-siding-repair-pj-vj~7302689) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 12 - [Front Facia knee braces](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/front-facia-knee-braces-pj-vj~7302688) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Deck and patio cover](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/deck-and-patio-cover-pj-vj~7302684) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [House Siding and Paint repair](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/house-siding-and-paint-repair-pj-vj~7302683) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - [Finish work](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/finish-work-pj-vj~7152771) - Location: Lake Oswego, OR - Photos: 8 - [Deck Project](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/deck-project-pj-vj~7152767) - Location: Happy Valley, OR - Photos: 5 - [hand rail custom work](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/hand-rail-custom-work-pj-vj~6979752) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - Description: nice and fresh design - [stair tread and rise, hanging interior doors, casing doors and base board.](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/stair-tread-and-rise-hanging-interior-doors-casing-doors-and-base-board-pj-vj~6979753) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [Completed Projects](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/completed-projects-pj-vj~6648638) - Location: Gresham, OR - Photos: 36 [See all 15 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/general-contractors/jm-carpenter-llc-pfvwus-pf~155195403) ## Ideabooks - [custom design shelfs](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/157398668/list/custom-design-shelfs) — 8 ideas - [rotten wood repair](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/154450727/list/rotten-wood-repair) — 1 idea - [My Project](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/150510384/list/my-project) — 2 ideas [See all 3 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/webuser-115794063) --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
