J Connor Builders

Everything went smoothly and well.

Mr. Connor and his staff were quite professional, thorough, courteous, and concerned for detail in every aspect, in the prep work, the actual tasks, and the cleanup. We are very pleased with the results and would use them again. We even had a couple of neighbors use J. Connor Builders after they saw the work and the quality performed at our house. This company and the people are first rate.

At the time of initial contact and during the walk through to gather the scope of work for the estimate, attention was given to the work needing to be done, the most economical way to complete the work and the identification of any issues that could complicate the job or make it more time consuming/costly. After identification of any potential complicating issues, solutions were discussed to make the work cost effective but achieve the desired result. The attention given by the owner and the carpenters is appreciated. The hardwood floor installation required many initial cuts due to the configuration of the room. The carpenters made the cuts with precision and ensured each length of flooring fit well before proceeding, resulting in a very pleasing finished flooring product. While some of the work might be considered routine, e.g., replacing a door or window, in places it did involve the contractor needing to re-create molding no longer available for purchase off the shelf. The made on-site molding matches the original so very well. Another window required new framing along with hardwood interior facing, these requiring many mitered cuts. Perhaps not unusual, but the fit of the final project is impressive. My projects were not only completed, but completed well. After completion of the initial contracted work, I added a few small projects, as I was very pleased with the work performed, communication over the course of the initial project and the honesty of the owner and his team.

J. Connor and help were efficient, always cleaning up after a days work. Tiles had to be measured, cut to fit where needed, corner tiles cut, grout applied; cleanup and wiping down the film on the grout was done to perfection. Many washings were needed and continued until they were satisfied and the tiles were clean. Shower base was placed, pipes were cut to accommodate shower vs bathtub fittings; all done with perfection and treating our home and bathroom as if it were their own. Very, very satisfied as this is the second time we have used J. Connor Builders because of their integrity and pride in their work. The first time was for crown molding and repair of cracks in ceiling which we had repaired by many other contractors due to a fault in initial construction when our home was built. Also, work was done outdoors for tile cutting, leaving absolutely no trace of any sort of debris; never knowing that anyone even worked outside. Things, items needed for the following days work, were placed aside with total respect and order.

We had contacted the contractor to give us an estimate on fixing our carport. We then scheduled it to be completed on 6/6/2015. Not only did he never show up but had the audacity to call me at 12:30 pm, after I had been waiting all morning to inform me that due to the weather all week he wouldn't be able to make it. Then told me he would call me back on Monday to reschedule. 2 1/2 weeks went by with no response. I was in the process of looking for a new contractor when I received a text message that he would be there while we were not able to be home to work on it. Upon returning home I can move my car port, it looks very very crappy and he left all of the debris in my yard, because as he stated, "the scrap yard wasn't open". FYI- text messages are not professional, nor is leaving debris in my yard- take it home with you. We will not be using this contractor ever again.

They caulked, painted, and repaired the molding. More impressively, we had a floating seam that the builders had told us about, but we could never get rid of the cracking where it was. Jay used mesh and plaster to get rid of it for good. This was the 6th time that it was worked on. They did everything that they needed to do, cleaned up afterward, and then moved everything back the way it was. They treated it as if it was their own home. I was very impressed. They even threw in a couple extras and didn't charge us for them. If they saw that there was a problem, they fixed it. They even left me the extra paint and caulking.

I explained what the problem was and he got right to looking at the work requirements and gave me an repair estimate, and I agreed .Work went well fast service and cleaned up work area when completed. Good Job'. Use his service on any house repair jobs in the future.

Very very good ,the crew showed up on time every day were extremely professional,polite and friendly....i really liked thier attention to details

Very very good job , the paint crew showed up on time everyday were very polite and professional...they also did a few extra things I asked them to do...they cleaned up everyday and moved all the furniture back. Mr. Connor stayed in contact with the project throughout the duration. We are also contacting him for some deck restoration.

I live in Arizona but have a home in Delaware. He started the work while I was there. He put up 2 or 3 panels while I was in Delaware and said he would leave a little room under the fence in order to weed eat without damaging the fence. He had to go out of town to Florida to visit his dad and I told him that was ok because I was leaving to go back to Arizona. He finished the work in April while I was in Arizona. He sent me pictures of the finished work so I paid him the remainder of the balance. When I went home for Christmas I saw that the fence was level at the top but was 3 to 4 feet off of the ground. He did come out and looked at the fence and said it looked fine and he would not fix it. He also said that I had seen the fence and approved of it and why had I waited 9 months to call him. I had seen pictures of the top of the fence only not the bottom. the gap is so big it will not keep my dog in the yard or anyone out. When I purchased the fence I was told I had a year warranty. This man knew I lived out of state. The neighbor even told him that it was not installed correctly and that he felt the contractor was taking advantage of me. I contacted another contractor who said they could lower fence but it would cost me much more money when I've already paid $9000 for the fence.

The painting crew did an outstanding job. They examined the interior of the home and fixed / repaired all areas of the walls , woodwork and ceiling. Every item and piece of furniture was covered and protected during the painting process. The painters did their work in a professional manner and were courteous at all time. They made every attempt not to interupt our daily routines. At the completion of the project they asked us to examine their work to make sure we were completly satisfied. As they left our home they said and quot; if you find anything wrong call us and we will make it right ( but we found nothing wrong ) They left us a touchup kit --a gallon of each paint that we might need in the future. My wife and I live in a 55+ community ( Barclay Farms ) and we depend on good, honest, reliable contracters. J Connor Builders met all of our expectations.

good job

Great service, accommodated our work schedule and even worked on a holiday to get it done.

The meeting was good overall. The handyman came to our home and my husband showed him the present door and reviewed options that were available and what he felt he could do. We are looking at upgrading the front door. He followed immediately with a quote and followed with a call. He certainly was professional in all ways. The price was higher than WE wanted to pay , however not out of line with the market. We are simply waiting and looking at other options. Sue Bruno

I explained in the other area what exactly happened.

The job J Connor Builders did on sealing the windows was done with custom service and professionalism. He not only gave us a great price, but totally explained what went wrong the first installation and thoroughly described what he was going to do to correct it. Wish I would have called J Connor Builders the first time the windows were installed.

Mr. Connor is very professional and always wants things done right the first time. Our only hold up was the delay in the arrival of the bath tub/shower, but that was the supplier, not Mr.Connor. He is also careful about keeping things as clean as possible and cleaning up very well when they are done.
