about

a better craft

Hi. My name is James McGhee. I'm the owner of A Better Craft.


Two decades ago, I started my career in construction and home improvement as a property manager for a variety of apartments and facilities in Northern New Jersey.


I went on to become a general contractor myself, and along the way I have seen so many others in my field focus on the next job rather than the client they're working for right now. 


I knew there was a better way. So I started A Better Craft.


We are committed to making sure that each and every job we do is completed to the best of our ability, and to your satisfaction.


No excuses. No shortcuts. Just A Better Craft.
