When the work was finally completed the quality was good, but it took many weeks longer than expected, had an unusable kitchen for 7 days because he forgot about multiple things until after the stove was already ripped out. At the end we spent 3-4 weeks going back and forth about the bill, each invoice was missing or mis-stating costs to a difference of about $400. Keep very detailed notes in writing to maybe avoid the problems I had.
Description of Work: Replaced a sliding door and plumbed gas to the house.

Very thorough. Spent a good amount of time and didn't skip items. His report was detailed and complete. We were able to use the report to negotiate a price adjustment to address some health and safety concerns.

He always came when he said he was going to come. He always came fully prepared and ready to work. He repaired one wall of the outbuilding quickly, and the repair is indistinguishable from the original walls. He rebuilt the floor of the outbuilding and now it is sturdy and dry and the door can be closed securely. He found some fungus damage where the wood was rotted under a crawl space that the pest inspector failed to find. The wood was rotted to the point of falling apart. He replaced the damaged supports and beams, and insulated so that the floor above wouldn't be cold. During his initial home inspection. Mr. Jeffery noted that the electrical panel for the house was one that is no longer UL certified. He urged us to have it inspected by a licensed electrician. The seller agreed to do this and reported back to us that it had passed. At the time we didn't know enough to require documentation from the electrician. After we had purchased the house, he still urged us to have someone look at the panel. The electrician that we hired found that one of the main bars in the panel had melted in two places. The electrician also found that the system was not grounded properly. We are very glad that we followed Mr. Jeffery's advice. He left the workspace neat and organized from the time he left until he returned the next day to work. Mr. Jeffery was capable and dependable in every way on the work he did for us. However, his main strength is as a home inspector. He is thorough and meticulous. He found for us a number of hidden issues that needed to be addressed. If you are ever considering purchasing a home in the Nevada City, Grass Valley area, you won't find a better home inspector than Frazier Jeffery.
Description of Work: Initially, Mr. Jeffery conducted the home inspection before we purchased our new home in June 2013. He was exceedingly professional and thorough and he explained everything to us as he went along. He took photographs of every issue as a means of documentation. We we hired him before we closed on the house to make sure that all the work was done that the seller had promised to do. We are very glad that we did, because there were several things that the seller had not addressed, which would have cost us thousands of dollars had Mr. Jeffery not found them. We subsequently hired Mr. Jeffery in November to do some significant work on an outbuilding and under a crawl space. He also did some plumbing and other repair in the house.

As I've said above, I have been 100% satisfied with every project that Jeffrey Construction has done for me. I would not work with anyone else.
Description of Work: Jeffrey Construction has been doing General Contractor work, and to some degree, Home Inspections for me for the past 14 years. The first project completed on my home was in 1998 when Jeffrey Construction removed and rebuilt more than 2800 square feet of decking attached to my home. The decking had severe dry rot and required a complete deck replacement. Some of the dry rot had traveled into the infrastructure of my exterior walls and required the removal of siding, elimination of the dry rot, rebuilding of some structural components, re-siding of the house and then the building of the new decks. Mr. Jeffrey kept me informed of new issues as they arose. Dry rot is an invasive problem, and Mr. Jeffrey updated me each time a new problem arose and gave me options for tackling the issue. He was open, honest and very fair. When I was in high school and college I worked for a general contractor doing home remodel work, so I have a good feel for how remodels should be done, and what they should cost. Mr. Jeffrey was always so fair with me that after this first project I never asked him for a bid again. I simply work with him on a time and materials basis. I have always felt that his work is top quality and delivered at a very fair price. I would recommend him without hesitation.Since that time Jeffrey Construction has been my contractor of choice on every home improvement, upgrade and remodel I have had done. These include: A complete kitchen remodel with wood floors, new cabinets, new appliances and granite counter tops. The building of a wine cellar The remodel of my daughter's room through which he recaptured some unused basement space and turned her room into an incredible 2 room suite (she loves it) The remodel of my 2.5 bathrooms and the addition of a 3rd full bathroom The expansion of one of my decks and the installation of an 8 person hot tub. This tub is on a deck 25 feet off of the ground and required structural engineering work to assure that the weight of the tub and occupants was properly supported and secured The expansion of my sons room through which he also recaptured some unused basement space to expand the bedroom by nearly 80% In addition to these large projects Mr. Jeffrey also willingly does very small, simple handyman jobs for me. He's "saved" me on several occasions by coming to the rescue. In one instance my hot water heater went out on a Friday night and I had guests arriving on Saturday night. He came over on Saturday WITH a new water heater and had it installed and working before my guests arrived. I know I can always count on him. If you need home remodel, home repairs, home building or home inspections call Frazier Jeffrey.
