Very careless work. I just wanted to show pictures because it's a waste of time trying to respond to his untrue responses - lies - and promises.

Jeff and his team did a great job. He made many suggestions that ended up working in my favor. He was fair on price and perfectly executed my vision for what the deck would look like. The project took a little longer than we had originally expected but in the end we were very pleased.

Description of Work: Very average because they don't seem to take any pride in what they do--evidenced by shoddy workmanship. i.e. tiles slightly crooked, grout not matching in different areas, seams placed in most visible areas, and on and on. Don't keep appointments and do not call. Lost our condo's main building keys and will not give us the $100 it will take to replace them, after numerous requests. Very disappointing as they were nice men.

Response from J & J Building and Remodeling
Hello [Member Name Removed] I'm sorry you are not happy with the results of your bathroom. I would like to see any tiles that are crooked or damaged or not installed correctly. we take the utmost pride in our work and would never leave a job less than 100%. Your bathrooms came out unbelievable. I would like to you to prove your statements by posting a picture here of the bathroom. I don't understand why you are giving a negative review when everything in your bathroom remodel came out beautiful and you had nothing but great things to say to us when we completed your bathroom. I spoke to you about a key that an employee misplaced and I told you that I would pay to replace the key. You told me not to worry about it. If you had told me that the key cost you $100 dollars I would of insisted on reimbursing you for it. please call me so that we can resolve any issues that you may have. I will 100% stand behind my work and correct any issues you may have with absolutely no charge of any sort. and I will definitely reimburse you for any costs you incured do to my employee misplacing the key.

Everything worked out great. We have an old colonial, so nothing in our house ever lines up straight. They did a GREAT Job. I now have the most BEAUTIFUL KITCHEN in the world !!!! Could not be happier. Originally we contracted with Scituate Caseworks which is affiliated with Ikea to install our kitchen, but had a terrible experience with them. They wasted our time and the project manager was so incompetent and unprofessional that we fired them. Our kitchen was supposed to be installed by June, but now we had no contractor and a gutted kitchen full of boxes with cabinets and appliances needing to be installed. It took a while before we found Jeff. We were all summer with no kitchen and could not seem to find anyone. It was AWFULL !!!!!!!. Very Happy we found Jeff, Sonny and Ryan .
Description of Work: Jeff and his crew installed an Ikea Kitchen for us.

I have always wanted to write a review but did not belong to Angies list until recently. Jeff did an amazing job on my kitchen and it is still my favorite part of my condo. He worked day and night until it was done. Thank you Jeff.

The project was not done. I have no estimate.
Description of Work: contacted Jeff on 9/27/14 He replied on 9/27/14 We connected on 9/30/14 The first and second appointments for an estimate were missed (one because Jeff said he forgot, the second due to illness) The third appointment was kept. Jeff was very polite and made some nice suggestions for our deck project On 10/26/14 I wrote to Jeff asking about an estimate I was expecting two weeks earlier. On 10/27/14 he replied and apologized indicating that he thought he sent the estimate On 10/28/14 after seeing no estimate, I sent another message with the email account to use in case Jeff was sending it to the wrong account. That was our last correspondence.

Jand J has very competitive pricing so we will be using him to do our bathroom remodels. When he came to our condo to give us an estimate, Jeff was there for almost an hour, measuring and asking details about what we wanted--very thorough unlike other contractors who came to give an estimate. His written estimate was spelled out in complete detail with separate pricing for each item they would be doing, like and quot;replace bathtub, lay tile floor, install tile for tub surroundand quot;, etc. I am very detailed oriented when it comes to pricing so this really impressed me. We were slated to start last month but a serious illness on our end stopped the job beginning. Jeff has been more than patient and cooperative and we are very pleased that he will be doing our large remodel starting this week. I will submit a job review when the job is completed.
Description of Work: Gave a rough work estimate to remodel 2 bathrooms, top to bottom.

Jeff and his team (Sonny, Kevin, Kevin, and the rest) were awesome! We replaced our existing deck with composite flooring and extended out about 16 feet with a new deck. They also built new stairs, new wood railings and put up composite lattice and composite trim. They were always there when they said they would be and finished the job EXTREMELY fast! Our deck looks AMAZING! We've already been getting great use out of it. I'm very happy and beyond satisfied with the work that Jeff and his team have done. They truly took pride in their work, was extremely thorough and cleaned everything up when the job was completed. I would highly recommend Jeff and I will be contacting him with future projects.
Description of Work: Our existing deck was taken down to the foundation and new composite flooring and wood railings, along with new stairs, were put up. We then extended the deck out by about 16 feet.

My daughter and son-in-law were having work done in their home and had contracted with Jand J Building and Remodeling.. Both my husband and I liked the quality of work, so had Jeff Etta come to our home to give us an estimate on our main bathroom. We felt really comfortable with Jeff and gave him the approval to redo our main bathroom. We leave in a split entry house, so the bathroom is long and narrow. The estimate on cost included labor only (reno included) as well as sanding all walls, patch where needed and skim coat and paint walls. Installing backerboard on floor before tiling.. Tub walls were in great shape, backerboard already up, so nothing needed to be replaced before new tile went up. Jeff, the owner, did the tiling with one of his guys and did an outstanding job. He puts a lot of thought into the process, taking time to map out the room before going ahead with installing the wall tile, Not only was he professional but his crew is also. Really enjoyed having them here (we even fed them a few times). Since we were also having our tub refinished, Jeff worked his schedule to accommodate. Everyhting worked out great. All material for the job was purchased thru the showroom that we purchased our vanity and sink from. As we worked with the sales/designer consultant and she helped coordinate everything with us, we had her order what was needed for the job, in consultation with our contractor. I would have Jeff back in a minute for other remodeling projects. Absolutely would recommend Jand J Building and Remodeling. Jeff always answered his phone when I called with a question, could call him anytime - always pleasant and accommodating. We love our new bathroom Jeff - really appreciated your going with the flow and accommodating our needs. It was a pleasure to work with you.

Excellent!!
Description of Work: This is a follow-up note regarding the work Jeff did for me on my deck canopy. When Jeff assembled the canopy for me back in the spring, he said he would come back and take it down too. We had made arrangements for him to come in November as I was hoping to use the canopy for as long as possible. Jeff called me two days ago and said he was coming this morning to take down the canopy due the impending hurricane we were getting as he didn't want anything to happen to it. He showed up at 7:15 am and did exactly what he told me he was going to do! I wasn't even thinking of the canopy when they were predicting this storm and it probably would have been destroyed had Jeff not had the foresight to come and take it down. Not only is he a talented contractor but a good person as well. Thank you Jeff!

It went extremely well! Jeff was extremely professional I would hire him again in a snap!
Description of Work: I called Jeff for an estimate to assemble and construct a canopy on my deck. He came that evening, on time, and was extremely fair with his quote. He scheduled the work to be done the following week and came exactly when he told me he would! He not only performed quality work but he left the area spotless. He even went above and beyond as the canopy came with a small tear in the corner and Jeff took out a sewing kit and sewed up the hole!! A lot of my friends discouraged me from getting a free standing canopy as they had problems with it tipping in bad weather. Jeff secured it so tightly that we haven't had one issue at all. We have already scheduled him to return in the Fall to take it down. I also plan to have some additional work in our home and I wouldn't hesitate to call Jeff. I HIGHKY recommend his company for any work.
