JL Stone Inc
About us
JL Stone, Inc focuses on residential remodeling and building as well as project management for home owners interested in taking a more active role in their construction project. We strive to incorporate the highest quality materials into our projects and to screen all of our sub-contractors in order to provide the best possible finished product for our customers. Through cost cutting methods and working with the smaller, local sub-contractors we feel that we can offer reasonable prices for the variety of services we provide. We also feel that by working closely with our customers throughout the entire construction or remodeling process we can eliminate the mistakes that lead to time and cost overruns which have become so common in this industry. JL Stone, Inc is fully licensed and insured and only hires licensed sub-contractors who carry up to date liability and workers compensation insurance. We always operate within the building codes outlined in the Massachusetts State Residential Building Codes Seventh Edition, and strive to maintain an organized and safe job site at all times. Along with being the owner of the company, Jeff Stone runs all of the projects himself and works with and along side the sub-contractors on most of the jobs. This hands-on approach leads to a smoother running project as well as maintaining harmony between the customers and all of the craftsmen and craftswomen that are involved in the process.

We are very satisfied with the overall quality of the renovation, especially the details. Jeff did a great work finishing up the trims, edges and connecting the existing walls with the new ones. There was part of the house we did not change, and Jeff made the connection seem very natural and seamless.
When the project was going on, we were living in the house with a baby. Jeff was very conscious about noise and dust, and he had reduced the interference to the very minimal. He always kept the work areas clean and made sure the the dust would not leak into our living areas. We are grateful for his considerations and his attention to details.
Jeff's planning is very good. After the first site visit, he was able to provide us a detailed quote, which separated allowances and other necessary costs. His gives us generous allowances for floorings and fixtures, so it is no problem keeping the budget from our side. Even if there are some unexpected additional works, we are still within the budgets.
We would definitely recommend him to our friends and family.
I would not hesitate to recommend Jeff to anyone who is looking for quality craftsmanship for their renovations.
he does most of the work himself, the result is consistent and seamless. His attention to detail is extraordinary. As a perfectionist and master carpenter and builder, his finish work is of the finest quality. He adjusts easily to changes in the architectural plan and provides highly creative ideas as to design and construction. He keeps the construction site amazingly clean so that dust and
debris is kept to a minimum.
Jeff created a fully working temporary kitchen in our dining room by constructing temporary walls and moving our old stove,
dishwasher, sink, refrigerator, and microwave into the space. It is clear that Jeff truly cares about the quality of his work. His prices are fair, and he tries to keep costs to a minimum. In fact, he urged us to use a particular heating air conditioning contractor who
was a good deal less expensive than those we interviewed. He took full responsibility for the hvac system when he could have used a company we interviewed. Most importantly, Jeff fully completed our punch list and went well above and beyond the contract to help us with every detail of setting up our new home. He was always accessible and reliable. I can’t imagine working with any other contractor after this experience and so glad we had the good sense to hire Jeff. He is professional, friendly, and has a great sense of humor.
We agreed to start the work when I completed a work project. He began on time and worked consistently to get the projects done. He understood that I hadn't done a kitchen renovation before and made several recommendations for every purchase I needed to make. I was happy with all of the recommendations and feel he gave me sound advice.
Owner did almost all work, subcontracting out very little. As a result, the work was consistently done very carefully and with great craftsmanship. New closet in office looks like its always been there- new door matches all other doors. Kitchen renovations were not disruptive - only had one day without water in kitchen. Owner always made sure I could access water, sink and counter. Services that stand out: (1) exceptional and careful work; (2) very clean work. Kitchen dust was vacuumed every day; (3) very helpful in recommending providers; next steps, (4) trustworthy.
