i've worked beside Jim and can honestly say that i havent seen too many people put as much of themselves into their craft as he does. he won't leave untill the job is not only finished , but finished and completed to his own unbelievable standards. i wouldn't have anybody else do my masonry/restoration work.

Reached out to James T. Coughlin Restoration for help in flattening a residential basement floor. James let me know this was not really in his wheel house up front (it is now). He was still willing to help and get a team in as fast as possible. I needed the floor flat to install dricore subfloor topped with vinyl planks.The floor looked like an ocean with so many high and low spots. The Job was completed a week later exceeding expectations. Flooring is down and is very comfortable to walk on. James has earned my trust. I look foward to using him for more projects real soon!!!

I couldn’t be happier with the results from James T. Coughlan Restoration. From start to finish, James was communicative, punctual, and incredibly detail-oriented. You can tell he takes real pride in his work — everything was done with care, precision, and respect for the space. What stood out most to me was the quality of craftsmanship. He didn’t cut corners, and the end result was far beyond what I expected. Whether you're dealing with damage, a historical restoration, or just want to breathe new life into your space, James is the one to call. Highly recommended! He also has very reasonable prices for the services he provides!!!

I contacted James about a project I was interested in doing at my house. He was able to take a look at what I wanted and gave me a quote that day and when he could start. He was very professional, honest and punctual. I was out of town when he did the job but was great at communicating updates and sending pictures (which didn't do the job full justice). Once he was finished he made sure to answer all my questions and also gave recommendations on how to keep it looking new for years. Overall it was a great experience and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend or hire him again. Thanks again!

If anyone is in need of a mason…James is your man! He saved me on a project issue with another contractor, getting post screwed thru new granite & cement porch. He came after his long work day to my house in the dark finished and carpenter could finish work next day. He also did a great job with a repair I needed after my basement bulkhead was installed, waterproofing the area, all in a timely manner and cleaned up when finished. James is very professional, hard-working, honest, & respectful! That is 💯 on my list since I’ve been thru many bad & only a few good experiences with contractors. I definitely will be calling James for future work around my foundation. I highly recommend him to my family and friends, so that says a lot!

JTC Restoration is hands down my favorite. Working with James himself on commercial projects was very easy. I have had some emergency calls to him and he has even come out same day to fix so that our customers do not get hurt. I have also used James for residential work rwplacing a bulkhead and stone foundation wall. He has been out to repair cement stairs for me and repaint some brick work. I have always had top notch service and would highly recommend to anyone.

Outstanding Masonry & Concrete Work – Highly Recommended in Massachusetts! I recently had the pleasure of working with James T. Coughlan Restoration (JCR) for masonry and concrete repairs at my home, and I couldn’t be more impressed. James and his team were professional, responsive, and incredibly skilled. From brick repointing to parging and leak investigation, their work was detailed and clean. They clearly specialize in masonry restoration, weatherproofing, and coatings, and it shows in every part of their process. If you're searching for a reliable masonry contractor in Massachusetts, look no further. They even handled my bulkhead repairs with precision and care. Communication was top-notch from start to finish, and the final result exceeded my expectations. Whether you need foundation repair, masonry coatings, or concrete restoration, I strongly recommend JCR Masonry. Great local business with honest service and expert craftsmanship.

Highly recommend James! Had some bulkhead damage and flooding in the basement and found such positive facebook reviews and recommendations pointing me to James. He answered almost immediately, came to assess the problem within a day or two, and after a very reasonable proposal and estimate he got the job done about a week after our initial chat. Very trustworthy, professional, and expert level care. Can’t recommend enough!

James and his team did a large bulkhead and basement project for my husband and I recently. We are thrilled with the finished product and our basement has been bone dry ever since. We had been struggling with water getting in for too long before this. We are grateful to have found someone trustworthy who does excellent work. Would definitely recommend!

I had a great experience with Jimmy and his crew! He was quick to respond and came out ASAP for a quote. They came out for brick and concrete removal in my backyard, as well as adding onto my existing patio. They were timely, respectful, and professional! Jimmy made sure we went over everything a couple times throughout the process to make sure we were getting what we wanted, and to explain the process fully. They went over and above with clean up in my opinion and doing a quick leveling of the area. Jimmy and his crew definitely exceeded my expectations and I would absolutely hire him again and recommend him to others!
