The work was done on time and there were no pricing surprises. All pricing was agreed in a detailed contract before starting construction, and they used Buildertrend to keep us updated on the status of the renovation

JCG is amazing! My kitchen remodel is stunning. They did an exceptional job and delivered on time. The only minor delay was due to defective cabinetry which needed to be replaced (not their fault). They figured out a way to work around the cabinet install and completed the work in a timely fashion. The workmanship is exceptional, and I can't wait to have them help me renovate my master suite!

We had more than 80% of the old house remodeled with new additions. It’s a daunting task and huge project. However, Dimitritis and Joshua made it easy and did a great job in completing our dream home. Joshua was fantastic managing the daily tasks and excellent with details. They were very responsive in re-addressing even with minor adjustments. Definitely recommend.

Simply put, I could not recommend them enough. They were flexible and made the process easy. As this was our first rehab, this one took 18+ months due to legal and zoning. Throughout the entire process, James Construction group was happy to wait and consult as needed. I feel many companies may have moved on during this lull in our project and left us out. Once we finally got all the right paper work, they moved very quickly to rehab our house. All the while, we lived in the basement. Every contractor that came through for them was very nice and kept things as clean as possible (construction is always going to be dusty to a degree). As for the finishing, they made that easy too by allowing us to pick the big design elements but handled most of the "small finishes" that go overlooked but are a massive headache for the home owner. For example, baseboard trim was something we weren't very passionate about and let the company match up to our style - it looked great! With any construction project, there's bound to be change orders. James Construction was always flexible, assisting in anyway they could. We had an extra last-minute bath remodel that they team executed flawlessly, even though many of the contractors that were needed for the project had already done their jobs on the bigger parts of the houses. With the finished product, we couldn't be happier. If you have a rehab or want to upgrade, this is the right company for you. They're budget friendly, too!

We are very pleased with the workmanship and professionalism of The James Construction Group. The plans for the kitchen included many custom elements, a number of which required creative solutions. Overall, although there were some delays related to a wait for materials, the work moved right along. The quality of the work was excellent.

We were incredibly happy with everything about this project. The team was professional/respectful, responsive to questions, did a FANTASTIC job, and completed the job on the agreed-upon timeline. I have never been so happy with any other company doing work in our place. Specifically, the kitchen bench and mudroom wall caninetry/bench look like they were always here! Additionally, the team was kind enough to recommend a place to have cushions made for the bench, which we really appreciated. They did not have to do that- but it was very helpful. I will plan to use james construction group for anything we need moving forward. Truly could not be happier with the whole experience.

I couldn't be more pleased with The James Group. I used their services for a renovation for one of my building properties. They were professional, thorough, and respectful. Most importantly they were punctual and finished the job when they said they would, which is important for me. I would highly recommend them. They have experienced staff and labor and my renovations turned out great.

Incredibly happy. James Construction was so easy to work with. Punctual, professional, had everything under control. Our house needed an entire gut rehab. It was a very large project and we needed a firm that could handle all aspects of remodeling. They took the headache off our shoulders and stayed on our time schedule. We are very happy with their work and wouldn’t hesitate to hire them in the future.

James Construction Group did a great job from start to finish. Dimitris was great to work with - super clear and helpful from the beginning of the project. Josue was the on site manager and communicated each step along the way. Work was completed within the estimated time frame and the quality of work was spectacular for such a small job! I will definitely be going back to them for any future projects
