Did a great job, did it in the time frame he quoted and did quality work.
Description of Work: Was remodeling a home I was looking to sell. Jim came over and helped with the finish work. I'd drywalled and put in two replacement windows. Jim taped and applied primer on the walls, refinished the hallway and a bathroom ceiling as well as frame the new windows, inside and out.

We moved into our present home in Bennington, Vermont, exactly one year ago. We quickly discovered that the house was in great need of repair. We hired a contractor and got to work removing moldy walls in the garage. That contractor recommended that we continue with James Potter Construction, as Mr. Potter had more time available and it was clear that we would have many tasks. Mr. Potter responded immediately and we planned a new kitchen, including removal of old linoleum and installation of new bamboo wood floors. We wanted to use local merchants and Mr. Potter was extremely helpful in helping us find the best source for kitchen cabinets. He and his team designed and installed a great new kitchen, complete with a ceramic tile backsplash, new plumbing, and partially customized cabinets. He also made useful suggestions and modifications with an eye to our needs. He supervised the installation of composite counter tops and sink and when the new sink developed flaws, he negotiated with the supplier and the manufacturer to insure that repairs were made promptly and completely. By the way, Mr. Potter and crew work very amiably with the painters. Next came windows... we live in a cold climate and several windows had obvious seal failure. We determined to replace all windows and Mr. Potter and his team undertook that job. Once again he was instrumental in locating the best quality replacements at a reasonable price. By now we feel we know the men who work on various jobs and enjoy having them in our home. They are all very competent, careful, polite, friendly, and never leave a mess. The work has continued. At present Mr. Potter is installing a new ceiling fixture in the dining room, including rewiring. Further work includes more wood flooring on the bedroom (3rd) level of our home, walls that need to be repaired, replacement of a support beam on the front steps, and remodeling a bookcase/cabinet installation in the living room to create a television/fireplace setting. Mr. Potter is already at work scouting prices and materials. I'm sure I'm missing some of the chores that he undertook over the past months. He has been simply invaluable to us as a local resource, and a reliable, professional and extremely competent workman. We would never hesitate to recommend him to anyone who needs competent construction.

Smoothly as expected from a professional.
Description of Work: This guy has done everything around here from inside finished stairway rebuilding to sheet rock to roofing to installing windows in the past and is a good competent general wood worker and repairman using your materials or newly order ones. If something has to be rebuilt or repaired and it involves woodworking, he is very good at it.
