NYC Luxury Renovations Contractor James Mansfield Founder Story, Website Update

For the first time, James talks about his relatively humble beginnings to leading one of the finest luxury renovation companies in Manhattan. Growing up as the son of a successful developer in Northern England, James says this road to success was not linear, but a series of happy misfortunes that led him to understand his true calling. He discusses this and more on his company's newly revamped website.

James cheekily describes himself as a "weird anomaly" in the real estate and construction industry. A high school dropout with the rare gift of special visualization, James spent his early years as a Royal Butler, serving the Royal Family and Sir James Ogilvy for years. He then decided to shift careers to becoming a professional sailor in the Caribbean. It was here that he was given advice that he would never forget, "Stay passionate, James. You'll live a fulfilled life".

James, still unsure of what he wanted to do, studied mechanical engineering, refrigeration, air conditioning, electrical, carpentry, and millwork. He became dedicated to learning how to design practical, comfortable, yet luxurious designs of yachts, which foreshadowed his eventual success in the construction business.

He spent some time on Wall Street but immediately disliked it. He says, "Investment banking would be my ticket out of academic mediocrity. But I hated it. Soon my only dream was being hit by a bus to avoid going to work. Eventually, they fired me for being useless. I needed a new career."

James says that he founded West Village GC with the sole purpose of providing excellent service - his company offers complete luxury renovations for clients across Manhattan, handling every step from design to completion. So far, his team has carried out various high-end renovation projects in the area that are available to view on his company's website.

"We operate from a simple standard: Do what you say you're going to do, when you say you're going to do it, for the price you said you were going to do it for. It's simply the West Village GC way," he explains.

James clarifies that although his history may seem like a hodgepodge of careers, each step led him to understand his true passions and skills. His innovative nature and creative spirit have been fundamental in shaping West Village GC into the company it is today.
