This guys just did a complete tear off on a 8flat I own. He didn't gripe when there was way more material up there than expected....it was like 5 inches thick with old re-roofs....he even needed an extra dumpster. When the job was done, there was one thing that he didn't do that he said he would do. He came out immediately and took care of it. I gladly paid him out. Great guy, easy to work with. I really wish him well, this is how a job is supposed to go. Thank you very much Jack

Let me start by saying this is not the first time we have used JL Contractors and for us to utilize them more than one time means we are impressed with their work. Not only that, the workers are extremely polite and very professional. The owner is a no nonsense person and a fair person. His workers come and perform the job. They ring the doorbell to let me know they have arrived and when they are leaving for the day. There was a hidden condition which would affect the original contract amount and the owner called and explained the situation. He emailed pictures of the affected area. He told me how many additional bricks would be needed and the cost. The next morning they delivered the bricks and continued on with their work. They cleaned up behind themselves. I am very pleased with their work and professionalism. I would highly recommend them to friends or neighbors.

Jack was very easy to work with. Professional, responsive, and on-budget. Work was completed promptly. He worked in conjunction with a different contractor who was replacing my roof and they coordinated their related tasks without needing me to step in or anything. I would likely use him again. Nice work.

I tried to get this done at the end of the year - I was given an appt that was 2 weeks out. I took it - sure that other Angies List providers would show up w/i that time frame and I would cancel. 4 different companies came and went with various degrees of success. Some gave me informal prices with promises of a formal quote that never got to me. One I shamed via Angies List review to come out - never got a quote.Jack showed up at the exact day and time we agreed. He was thoughtful in his approach. He took a good look at the project and explained what needed to be done. He promised me a quote. The quote arrived a few hours later! I gave one other contractor a "last look" but he never got around to giving me a formal quote and I opted with JL. Jack's quote gave me a heads up on what it would cost as well as what it "could" cost if rotting wood was found under the rusting, deteriorating siding. There would be no surprises on that and he did not pre-charge me - but he made me prepared for that additional cost. We agreed around New Years and he said his crew would come when the weather cooperated. I figured March. In Mid January I got a call - the guys reviewed the project again and gave me a date to start. The weather report gave them a week and they took it! They were safety conscience and took every precaution they needed to get to this very odd alcove. They were industrious and put in full days. They let me know what they were going to do every morning and what they accomplished each evening. My home office window looked out on their work so I was able to keep track. The leak was found above a 3rd floor window that could not be seen from the roof. No rain yet so I can't say it's complete - but I have a high confidence level. No rotted plywood was found! Jack had 3 crews showing up - Roofers, Siders, Masons - all 3 showed up like clockwork completing each task quickly and efficiently. Jack kept track of their progress and reviewed their work intermittently. It took about a week and it was completed. I have the utmost faith that if anything went wrong Jack would work to make it correct. He is very conscientious and tries very hard to work with the customer. I have had some bad contractors in the 15 years I have owned my 3 flat and know the drill. He never talked down to me, was willing to explain the process, listened to my concerns and checked them out. His crew was low maintenance, self sufficient and put in solid days. I would (and probably will be) hiring again. a 100+ year old house always needs something.

Jack was very quick to respond and come out to see my issue. I originally thought it was a siding issue but after Jack looked at various areas he determined what the source of my leaking was. They were backed up by about a month or two, but before I knew it I received a call that he was ready to go. The day of the repair there were 2 workman that showed up. They were a little slow to start, not having the necessary window, but after they left to get the necessary supplies they completed the work very quickly. Overall it was easy, right on with the quote, and nice to work with.

Very small house (800 sq ft) - Spent one day replacing roof. Left house without gutters for four days. Nightly rains cause flooding and seepage. We were told they were very busy. Yard light, window screens and aluminum were damaged during roof replacement. Little care given to protect house or neighbors houses from debris. 2 1/2 weeks later we are finally done and repairs were made. This was a not a difficult job and fairly small. It did not go smoothly. Being very busy is not acceptable. The job should not be accepted or scheduled if they are too busy to complete it.

We are trying to provide first class service to every costumer as much as possible. We notified costumer that there will be short wait time to install the gutters. Our siding crew was busy finishing very difficult project at that time. Four days of wait for installation is not that long. We obviously cannot control the weather i we do do not think that seepage in the basement was caused by lack of gutters. When it rains the whole ground is saturated with water not just by the house. The screen and capping was damaged unfortunately damaged by removed old gutter. These things happen sometimes. Regardless, damaged items were promptly replaced. We are very sorry for any inconvenience. Jack

They were incredible. They were so responsive. If Jack didn't pick up, he will call back within a few minutes. I had these lilacs that they would've had to cut in order to do the work, but they worked around it by crawling underneath them. They very accommodating. We are using them again for concrete work and they bid about half of what another company did.

I left a voice mail to get an estimate and the same day Owner Jack Lekarczyk called back. He came out two days later as promised, to provide me with an estimate. The estimate was in the middle range of two other estimates I had received. I asked when he could start on the job and he told me it might be a week because of other jobs he was currently working on. I called Jack a week later to tell him that I had mailed the down payment (40%) and to schedule the job. He said he would and would call back with a set date which he did. Due to rainy weather Jack called and rescheduled the date. His crew came out on the scheduled day and work was completed on the same day. I was not present, but my neighbors on either side of my house both complemented the professionalism and efficiency of Jack's entire crew. I am completely satisfied with the job and have already recommended JL to a neighbor.

The two workers did an excellent job. The old concrete was broken up and removed in one day. Due to bad weather the job was postponed for a few days which was quite understandable. They put in the gravel and leveled it then poured the new concrete and leveled it off. Because we were also having a fence put in at the same time both JL and Top Line worked together so the jobs could be completed without either getting in the others way. I would definitely recommend them for future work to both family and friends.

The gentleman gave us the best and the most accurate quotes He found issues when he did the variation of the roof that the other contractors weren't able to find. He was timely and gave us options. He worked within our budget and did a very good job. Their price wasn't the cheapest but it was fair enough.

I like that they were the least expensive of five quotes that we got. I like that they did the work quickly and they actually had somebody come out and check the roof after they finished the work which was so much money. And he said that they had done a great job so that was really awesome.

First off I want to say that when I called to request an estimate, I was shocked to hear that Jack could not come for an entire month to even do the estimate. I took the appointment fully planning to cancel. That would have been a huge mistake. We needed the entire parapet of a four flat apartment building rebuilt and spot tuck pointing. Most contractors offered me two prices: one to keep the building aesthetics as they were and a cheaper price to just square off the top without replacing the stone elements. When I asked Jack if he would like to do the same, he said they were "just lazy". I received quotes ranging from $75,000 and down for this job. Jack came in a full $10,000 less than my lowest quote and did a stellar job. He is busy for a reason. I have recommended him to two friends since. He was not there in person at the job, but his crew was very professional and he was easily reached by email and very responsive to any concerns. Would definitely use again.

Jack came out to look at what to me was a large job. The cement squares (3'x10') were crumbling around my catch basin, the soil had eroded out from underneath the cement along the side of the house causing it to crack and slant and the long sidewalk out to the front needed to be replaced, widened and raised. There was a short delay to begin due to Jack having other commitments. The crew was here promptly at 8 a.m. and started removal right away. Because of rain they had to take a 2nd day to finish the removal. Once the weather allowed it was only a couple of days before the new cement was poured. Jack's crew finished it beautifully. The forms were removed 5 days later. I am thrilled with the results and have gotten compliments on how nice it now looks.

Jack and his crew were great. When Jack came out to give us the quote, he made sure to ask lots of questions to make sure he was giving us exactly what we wanted. He gave us a detailed quote that was reasonably priced considering the extent of the work to be done. He was very responsive when we had questions along the way and was patient when we tinkered with the specifics a few times. He was upfront about the timeline of the work and the finish product came out splendidly. They made sure to clean up after themselves. Having worked with many contractors, Jack and his crew are definitely among the best. We would definitely work with him again.

We had some cracks in our chimney and after discussing it with Jack, he set a very fair price and was able to schedule the masonry work very quickly. He communicated very well before the day and his crew arrived early Saturday AM and finished the work up by mid-day. THe Chimney looks brand new and Jack's guys were very easy to work with. I'd definitely recommend them for masonry work.
Description of Work: Masonry work on the Chimney to repair cracks. They set up scaffolding, the did grinding and tuckpointing of the chimney to refurbish it.
