JT Home Construction

Their estimate came in well below the other I obtained, even though the other was only for a patio and did not include the other items. Went from estimate to project completion in two weeks (estimate on 4/9, work finished 4/23). My property lines are crooked and Jamie figured out how to align the patio so it didn't look crooked. Crew was friendly and professional and cleaned up after themselves each day. Jamie was on site each day to check on progress and answer any questions I had. Overall a very good experience.

We didn't end up doing the project.

Jamie (the owner and J in JT) has been doing this work for 15 years and the expertise he brings to the table is clearly evident. What most impressed me, however, is his collaborative and thoughtful professionalism. I have had quotes from other (even top rated Angie's List) contractors that are just this shade of condescending and they throw in a touch of scare tactics to try and inflate the job. There is none of that with Jamie. He listens carefully, then presents you with choices and options that are in your best interests with enough information for you to make an informed decision. He also is closely involved with the work itself to ensure a very high quality job. This job was for my Mom who is a recent widow. Jamie's crew were very nice to her. It is obvious that they have been working together for years and they are a well-oiled machine. I work from my home so I have seen strong crews before. But these guys are actually a cut above. They work a full day and are extremely productive. They like each other and work as one. They are friendly and responsive to requests or questions. The project turned out beautifully. Jamie and his crew added some beautiful touches that really dressed up the area. Not only did they solve the runoff problem but they took a weedy area and turned it into a beautiful showpiece. Afterwards we requested a walkway be added over the drainage stones to make a safer path for the mailman and the next day it was done at no additional cost.

They came when they were supposing to and the pricing was fine but we decided we weren't going to move on with the project.

Nice experience. very thorough and tidy.

We didn't use them as we weren't in their service area if i recall correctly.

They did a great job. There some things that were missed but once we reviewed them with the contractor he addressed them immediately.

My experience with JT Home Construction went very well, but when I called them back to do more work, they never came back. The first time they were fast and the price was good. They did a good job. I would use them in the future.

Very pleased and happy with the response and work. Workers were very pleasant and polite. Would recommend and use them again.

The work was done quickly with a great level of the professionalism. Guys came on, worked quickly and very accurate. No mess was left behind. Overall, Jamie is very nice, punctual and professional. Sorry, that I'm so late with my review. Thank you for the work you did for us! Our lawn looks beautiful!!!

Hes very busy tho arrived on time.He was professio.al & easy to talk to..not pushy but knows his business.

He arrived on time, was pleasant & friendly . seemed knowledgeable though we'd already interviewed many landscapers by that time and my husband decided on another landscaper. Though what I like about JT that's different from most landscapers, you can go with him to the nursery. That's a huge plus to see what you're actually getting, be involved in selection! Not many if any landscapers will allow that, though they should. We decided to put off our landscape until September due to a recent locust problem in our area, at which time we may consider JT .

The quality and workmanship was very good. The pricing was okay and the owner of the company was responsive. I would recommend them again.

The experience was excellent. We had a patio done and it turned out great. He was accommodating in changing the design when it was obvious that the shape would look much better curved rather than a mostly straight line on one side. The crew was very professional and friendly. Unlike some contractors they did not leave garbage on my property which is a pet peeve of mine. Jamie was courteous and easy to work with. He also gave tips and information during the whole process. I would definitely recommend them if you want a good end product done at a good price without cutting corners.

Jamie was generally responsive, returning calls within 24 hours. He is a small company and there a pros and cons associated with that. The con only con I experienced was that I had to follow up a couple times after receiving the bid to get the contract signed and job scheduled. The pros far out numbers that small issue. Jamie quoted a very fair price and stuck to it. He was knowledgeable, honest, and professional. He was on site to ensure the job was done exactly how we discussed it. It is rare to have the owner on the job site and I appreciated his attention to detail. His design recommendations turned out great and we are very happy.

Jamie and his team are fantastic. During the initial estimate Jamie came prepared to discuss everything from timing to materials to the best possible approach to make sure we got the results we wanted. The project took exactly what he said - four days - and he organized his team well. They were professional and worked hard consulting us along the way. Very happy with the results and project came in on the agreed upon budget. Would use them again!

First met with Jamie to discuss scope of work. I had a basic idea of what I wanted done but was looking for additional input and suggestions. He gave us names of suppliers for us to go look at various retaining wall blocks. After narrowing down our choices we agreed on the type of block. The block we picked however turned out to not be structurally sound for our 4 foot high driveway walls. We still choose this block for the front retaining wall and selected an alternate for the driveway walls. Jamie gave us an estimate and we agreed to a tentative starting date. Jamie was in contact with us all along the way and kept us up on the progress. Prior to start of job Jamie gave us a call and said he was able to find an alternate block by a different manufacturer that matched up amazingly nice plus this block wall was straight up and down as opposed to our previous choice that was a ?stepped? wall. The ?stepped? wall would have worked but would be very noticeable where it mated up to the house foundation. The block Jamie suggested was more expensive than the original block we choose but Jamie didn?t charge us the extra amount. The job went just as Jamie promised. His crew was very courteous and professional and worked under Jamies supervision. Many neighbors home during the day that watched his crew work told me they were very meticulous and hard working. JT Home Construction did what they said they would do and then some. They didn't cut corners and in the end the landscaping and retaining walls reflected the effort and quality of work. I am extremely pleased with how all aspects of the job turned out. Jamie also came up with some solutions along the way with issues I?ve always seemed to have regarding problem areas where grass would not grow properly. For several weeks after completion of job I had neighbors and complete strangers complement the work that JT Home Construction performed. I would definitely recommend JT Home Construction to anyone considering this type of work.

Jamie and his crew have been absolutely fantastic to work with from start to finish. Jamie gave us valuable guidance and suggestions throughout the process and we couldn't be happier with the finished product. We definitely will hire Jamie for future projects, and would recommend JT Home Constuction to anyone looking for a similar experience.

Unfortunately, nobody returned my calls. Called three times and left 2 messages. SINCE THEN JT CALLED ME AND HAS PROVIDED A QUOTE. HIS IS A SMALL BUSINESS AND HE WAS OUT OF TOWN THE WEEK I TRIED TO REACH HIM. HE PROMPTLY CALLED WHEN HE GOT BACK AND DELIVERED THE QUOTE IN THE TIME HE SAID HE WOULD.

i've used jamie in the past and, as expected, the process went smooth and was professionally done from start to finish. He is very creative and knows exactly what i'm looking for. And he always goes above and beyond the actual job that's spelled out on the contract. His prices are very reasonable and I highly recommend JT construction.

I left him a message and he never returrned my call.

We really like JT Construction. We selected him because we had a good feeling about him and he had favorable reviews on Angie's List.

Jamie is definitely a great designer and a real professional. He came up with the solution to our grading issue within 2 minutes, and seemingly had a plan right away. The job was done according to the schedule. The final result is good. The money I paid was very reasonable compared to other estimates I had. Why not straight A's? I think their popularity did them a big disfavor. They had several jobs at a time, and had to rush, rush, rush. A couple of small alterations were met with a fury - which is a no-no when dealing with a customer. When they left there were a couple of damaged pavers, which I had to knock out with a chisel and replace. They poured "synthetic" sand between the pavers - turned out a real bummer, as the first good rain washed the latex all over the patio, now the pavers look dull. Should've stuck with the regular one. Finally...the saws the guys use to cut stone have no water hoses attached (I found out that they do exist - just cost more), it results in clouds of dust that goes all over the yard, to the neighbors windows and yards - big conflicts. Plus these guys have to breath this cr-p all day, it's just inhumane. Just for the skills I would hire them again, but keep them on a short leash. A typical approach to contractors.

It went wonderfully, and this is from the perspective of having dealt with various shady contractors over the years. All the work was done well, but special praise can be offered for the following: a. Always willing to take the time to answer questions and share ideas. b. Price was the lowest quoted of the 3 bids we sought. He beat the others by between 8 and 15%. c. Work started on time and the team worked hard throughout the days. d. Meticulous attention to detail. Especially notable was the preparation before the pavers were laid, and the careful measurements to ensure the pattern was maintained. e. The team took care when expanding the driveway and therefore spotted and worked around drainage pipes and other issues. g. The joining of the driveway to the road, to the edge blocks, and to the garage apron was perfect. h. There are always odd spaces that must be filled. The team was very skilled at measuring these spaces and sawing the blocks to the exact geometry needed. The pavers actually fit so snugly that there is little space that needed to be filled with the sand. i. The team took all good safety precautions when driving and loading trucks, using power equipment, hoisting heavy loads etc. j. The remedial landscaping at the end actually made those sections of the lawn look better than they had before.

jamie (and crew) was professional, responsive and honest right from when he proivded an initial estimate through completion. the job was started a day before hurricane irene. in 1 day they removed the old slab, created the design and laid down the crushed gravel bed in 1 day. as soon as the weather cleared and the roads were open they came back and finished everything in 2 days. the finished product was amazing. jamie even came back 2 days later to make sure the pavers were settling properly and to clean off any lingering dirt. i highly recommend jt construction.
