Mid States Carpenters Group Corporation

Mid States Carpenters Group Corp. completed concrete work for my elderly parents. Mid States provided the work in a timely manner, communicated exactly what needed to be done, and completed the work efficiently, safely, and professionally. The respect and care shown to my family is greatly appreciated. We will definitely be calling on Mid States Carpenters Group for future work.

Judd was great! Even in below freezing temperatures, he got my roof installed quickly and efficiently, and even let me borrow his kerosene heater to help warm the house up and hasten the shingles settling down into their proper position. *Edit* Couple of years after the roof was installed, and I gotta say, it still looks spectacular. I have absolutely zero complaints. Highly recommend.

They did an outstanding job and were very detail oriented. They were courteous and on time and worked a full day. I highly recommend them.

My roof needed replaced due to hail damage. Judd was able to help me through the process and get the work done quickly. My new roof looks great. All work was performed according to the contract. The roofing crew was courteous and cleaned up the yard well when they were done. Judd was knowledgeable and worked with me and my claims adjuster to get all of my needs taken care of. I contacted other companies to bid the job and chose Mid States because of Judd.

Very professional. Excellent work. Completed in one day which was amazing! Extremely thorough clean up afterwards. Would definitely hire again for another project

Looks great completed work quickly

Judd and his crew did a fantastic job. While inspecting the roof, Judd was able to identify a structural problem with our roof caused by the fireplace chimney. They were able to rebuild the chimney and replace support beams for our roof. His crew was then able to replace our shingles in under 5 hours.

It was very good. They clean up themselves after the service and got the job done quickly. They been good on checking back to see if everything was okay.

The service was good. They came early, and they fix everything. Everything was great.

The service was excellent. It was a very professional job. They were efficient. They didnt take too long. It took them less than a week. They took off the entire shingles and prepared the new roof. The head of the company was there all the time and supervised his workers. They also cleaned up after. I was very happy with everything.

Work was done in a very timely manner and the completed project looks fantastic. Crew went above and beyond in everything.

Judd provided three different estimates for different quality and style of shingles and stuck to the estimate for the one we chose. Some extra work was required to address some roof sheeting issues that existed when the house was built 22 years ago. Instead of just covering it up with new shingles they addressed the issues. Did a nice job of cleaning up too. We also had them replace skylights that had fogged over. Communication was great, Judd kept us informed of any issues and progress. Our roof does look amazing.

From the first contact to the end I was impressed with the responsiveness and professionalism that Mid States Carpenters exhibited. Our roof need to be replaced and due to the timing I was concerned about getting it done before the snow started and temperatures dropped. Mr Penny with Mid States Carpenters was quick to respond and was at my home with a crew in less than a week. Once the crew started my new roof was done in under 2 days, which I would like to add was the 23rd of December. Due to the urgency of the project the insurance claim did not get processed correctly so we were only getting a $300 reimbursement. When I told Mr. Penny about this he stepped in and spoke to the adjuster and provided additional details and photos. The insurance re-opened the claim and paid nearly 50% of the cost of the new roof. I am certain that without him going the extra mile for me I would have been out of luck. I would recommend Mid-States Carpenters to anyone and am so impressed by them that I have shared my experience with anyone that will listen. 5 stars isn't enough in my book.

The owner Judd Penny was referred to us as a general contractor. When we told him what we wanted he blew our expectations out of the water. Judd and his crew were there when they said they would be and finished the job as he said he would. His knowledge and professionalism was very impressive as was the finished product. Judd will be my first call on any project that we want done. He is highly recommended in my book!

construction great, took longer than expected

Awful. He misread the floor plans and quoted me “$50-$60,000” for a 1,300 sq ft deck. However after much back and forth he finally realized it was only 348 sq ft. That must have upset “Judd.” The conversation ended with a sarcastic tone and a ballpark quote for $30,000——-for a 348 sq foot deck..... if I were you, I would RUN! Unless of course he does decking made from solid gold.

We were very pleased with the work Judd and his crew did for us!! During our estimate Judd informed us that our shingles had melted to the roof due to no venting. He is an expert in venting since taking classes and being certified. He offered us a very good deal which included the new venting we needed. We also purchased the extended warranty which provides materials and labor at 100% Judd is very trustworthy. He has amazing integrity and will take great pride in the work he will do for you!! Call him!! 515-705-9613

The workers were competent, skilled, respectful and kind, and the remodeling project was completed in a professional manner. On the surface, it sounds simple to move appliances from the basement to a first floor location, but it required permits, planning, and careful execution. When looking into the ventilation for the dryer, the workers discovered that work completed years ago by another contractor was done improperly. Bathroom vents were not vented to the outside and were instead vented directly into the space above the ceiling. They addressed this problem and other complications that arose with honesty, and Judd Penny was transparent about the status of the project throughout the project life cycle. If I needed remodeling completed - big or small projects - I would not hesitate to again work with Mid States Carpenters and Judd Penny. I was thrilled with the results and so were my elderly parents!

I was very pleased with the work Judd Penny and his crew did on our house. His assessment of problems included addressing original construction flaws as well as fixing more recent inadequate roof repair work done by another contractor. Judd's familiarity with and appreciation of old house "character" was evident when he first came over to look at the job and weighed heavily in the decision to choose Mid-States for our restoration project. The work was completed for the quoted price, accommodating a number of "surprises" along the way that inevitably arise with work on old houses, like those mentioned in other reviews. Our job took longer than initially projected but to me that just seems to be the nature of the beast. Alternatives and options were clearly explained throughout the process, when decisions needed to be made to complete repairs needed but still keep within budget. I do not hesitate to recommend contacting Mid-States for home maintenance and improvements work. We will be using their services again.

Judd did a great job! The rooms look awesome. Good attention to detail, no mistakes and cleaned up after job was done.

The entire project went smoothly. Judd Penny was involved every step of the way and made sure my floor was up to code and safe as well as appealing.

Judd and team did a great job of working with me to complete this job. We discussed the project in detail to determine what needed to be complete by him, and what I might could do on my own. I am very happy with the work he performed. He was also careful to ensure the removal of the old header was not as destructive as it could have been. For example, in my case, the walls were built in a way that the garage sheet rock did not need to be removed, and he ensured he did not remove any of it. This made the project much easier to complete.

Very well. They did a great job and they were on time and efficient.

Our project went well. Our deck looks so nice and the paint jobIs perfect. Judd has great suggestions and also listens very well to what you’re wanting to accomplish with your project. I would highly recommend his service. He won’t let you down.

The time allotted for the job stretched out for some time, but they advised us that the time frame may be lengthy due to weather and other factors. The work performed was very good; trim work completely matches the original home, and the workers found several little issues that they advised us on and then repaired. The paint work was hand brushed under the siding edges to get a complete thorough coverage. We are very happy with the end result and would hire them again! Two of our neighbors have now hired Mid-States based on the work done on our home.
