They did a good job.
Description of Work: I purchased a Big Deal coupon for J T General Contracting. They did all the tiling in the bathtub and cleaned the floor there, too. They redid all the caulking in the bathtub and bathroom itself. We paid an additional amount because we had some extra stuff done in the tub, floor and the bathroom.

Please see above.
Description of Work: It was great having this company come out. He was very efficient and cleaned up after. I had to have my bathroom tub area re-grouted. I was not home at the time; my husband was. I don't think he cleaned the tile. I think he re-grouted. It looks beautiful and I would definitely keep his number for friends and myself again. He was a very pleasant man. The only drawback (and a small one at that) was he came a half-hour late. That would not ever stop me from hiring him again b/c I was so happy with the job. He also did the ceramic tile on the bathroom floor. I had a coupon for $89 which kind of surprised me when he said it was going to be $189, but once we saw it and my husband knew what he had done, it was well worth it. Did a great job.

Description of Work: I purchased two of Angie's coupons from JT carpentry. One was to clean the marble walls/floor in the bathroom. The other was for plastering for 3-4 hours. Jim came out to give me an estimate of the work and we agreed on an additional amount to replace the baseboard in the bathroom. We agreed on a date to have the work done. He and his helper came out on the appointed day at the appointed time. He and his helper were friendly, helpfull and did very nice work

See the above comments.
Description of Work: The initial response for the appointment and drawing the contract were very prompt. However, my follow up questions (i.e. to separate estimates for the enclosure of porch and gutter/siding with the materials to be used) by e-mail were ignored.

Response from J T General Contracting
Member, I never received your emails. I would have been happy to answer any questions you might have had. A phone call or message may have cleared that up. I myself am wary of emailing correspondence (IE: contracts, response) when I do not get a reply/response. Not always sure it got there, so I also try to call. Sorry, we appreciate all customers, and future customers equally! We would love another chance to earn your business.
