Whenever you tear into an older home (37 year old house) you are never quite sure what you will find. Plus, as the project took shape and we were no longer looking a a drawing, we changed our mind about a couple small things. The MJ crew was great to work with about making changes to ensure we were happy with the finished project. Our home did not have the proper plumbing for the bathroom (instead of under the floor, the sewage lines ran out the wall to the septic tank) so half of our project cost was for tearing up the concrete floor and installing plumbing that should have been installed when the house was built. The project took a little longer than anticipated but Jeb and his crew saw that by the end of the first week we were able to move the washer & dryer back so we could do some laundry without having to run to the laundrymat. Thankfully, a friend had an appliance dolly he could loan us for the 3 week duration which made it easy to move the washer and dryer in and out when workers were coming and needed to be in that area.
Description of Work: Jeb Kennel and the crew from MJ construction turned our very large, very dysfunctional basement laundry room into a beautiful, useful 3-room space. We had a large room with a toilet and sump pump in one corner, and then the laundry equipment and an old kitchen sink in a homemade cupboard (an addition by the previous owners) in a straight line down the wall. The floor was cheap self-stick tiles that had discolored, and the paint and wallpaper were outdated. We'd recently finished gutting and redoing our 600 square foot basement family room ourselves and were worn out. Plus, we knew we could not do ourselves the plumbing needed for the laundry room. The MJ Construction crew had done a fantastic job with our roof in 2011, so we called Jeb about our laundry room. When he was viewing the space we mentioned we'd love to have a real powder room downstairs, and Jeb said he could work that in. We now have the sump pump area as part of the main mechanical area of the house, a more functional laundry space complete with a slop sink, and a cute little half bath. Everybody who comes over is impressed with the powder room. And it is so much fun to do laundry in a bright, clean space!

MJ Construction, owned by Jeb Kennel, was the perfect choice for our job. Jeb and his crew of 5 (who are his employees, not subcontractors) were clean cut, extremely professional in their interactions, and best of all were construction professionals--which meant they knew what they were doing and performed quality work. After discussing some concerns we had about about the underlying structure of our roof with Jeb, we also opted to have some additional work done to correct some framing deficiencies from when the house was built. This was an additional cost (not reflected in the price listed here) but was very reasonable for the amount of labor involved. Prior to signing a contract with Jeb, we received a very detailed estimate. And he provided references. As the project progressed and some additional structural deficiencies came to light that needed correction, Jeb provided an estimate for us to approve before work commenced on those issues. Each day the area around our home was thoroughly cleaned, including running a magnet to pick up nails. We liked that Jeb used the latest in roofing materials that were appropriate for application on our roof. Our home looks better than ever. We highly recommend MJ Construction.
Description of Work: Re-roof 1400 square foot house that has 4 valleys, including tear off two layers of old shingles
