Ames & Young, Inc.

Ames & Young, Inc. was founded on basic principles. Integrity, honesty, and respect go a long way in the construction industry. We strive to give our customers a higher degree of professionalism and experience than is typical of our field. Ames & Young was founded by John A. Young ( his customers knew him as Jack) over 18 years ago, in 2001. At the time, lead abatement was becoming a significant and very important issue. Jack wanted to help his customers and bring his knowledge of lead and its effects to his customers.

Jack Young was a licensed lead paint inspector for many years. Prior to that, he was a highly renowned contractor and developer, building several homes and developments in Central Massachusetts. He was also a Housing Rehabilitation Specialist for many years with the City of Newton. He wanted to bring his vast knowledge and experience into the realm of modern ideas. In 2002, his son-in-law, Shawn Young ( same last name but no relation) brought his creativity and extensive customer service experience to Ames & Young. Jack and Shawn became partners of one of the premier construction and lead abatement firms.
