Jules Construction LLC

.

I initially called Jules Construction to provide a quote for work to be done on a retaining wall. After Julian came out to inspect the situation I was told that he would contact me on the following Monday to provide the bid. After Monday came and went I called their number and left a message. After a couple of days passed I tried again. After giving it two weeks I tried one last time to reach Julian for the quote. This was my final attempt. Surprisingly I was able to get reach Julian and he apologized for not getting back to me. He explained that he had thought that the number was given. I accepted his explaination and told him that I would need to review the number given and get back to him in a day or two. I was attempting to get another quote to compare prices, and was in the process of scheduling another company to come out. After having multiple quotes in hand, I decided on Jules Constrution to perform the work. However, after multiple attempts to reach Julian to accept his bid I have not been contacted. This whole process has been a waist of time.

After I didn't receive the promised estimate, I attempted to contact Mr. Gallegos to see if he had finished his calculations or perhaps needed more information. I left two messages and never heard back from Mr. Gallegos. If he did not want to do the work, at the very minimum, he should have contacted me to say so. Not returning messages and leaving potential customers hanging is not professional. I was very disappointed with the whole experience and would definitely not recommend Mr. Gallegos to others.

Great!

Without a hitch, on time, exactly as quoted. Set a new standard in the neighborhood with endless compliments.

Outstanding! This wall had been in place for close to three years so I was little concerned about matching the block and color. In the end, the entire addition matches perfectly. They worked fast, precise and were contientious to details involved. Everyone was on time, worked all day, never complained and cleaned up completely each and every day. The end result is a wall that appears as though it was built from the start as is.

This job wasn't just block work....it entailed moving tons of soil before starting the project. Additionally a trench had to be dug to accomodate the footers for the wall. This phase was completed on day one. Julian's team began the block work immediately upon inspection of the footer work. They were prompt and on time every day, they cleaned up thoroughly at the end of each day as well. The final job turned out exceptionally well with no surprises nor disappointments.

That work turned out very well. However, I have since contacted them back to build a smaller wall. They actually told me I should have had them complete the work while they were out the first time. I didn't appreciate the excuses as to why they wouldn't complete the second job. If it was too small of a project, I wish they would have been honest.

They arrived early and worked hard all day, were pleasant and professional and did a very good job.

To begin with the entire project went extraordinarily well. In response to a request for quote from another contractor, who recently retired, Julian, the owner of Jules Construction, called me back the same day, a Friday. He verified the original quoted amount and promised a start date no later than the following Tuesday. As promised, he and his crew showed up on time and began working immediately. They had to deal with a fully landscaped yard with several irrigation zones, pavers, lots of plants and trees in the way, as well as full-size metal sculptures. While doing the job they were extremely careful not to injure or disturb key landscape areas and their clean-up was meticulous! The entire project was completed in 2.5 days. More importantly, they did a precision job with the block. The entire wall is perfectly aligned with all mortar joints even and neatly done. The entire crew was skilled, professional and polite. Bottom line: I moved here in 1998 from the East coast and was already jaded by New Mexico s a half done job is a well done job attitude. My prejudice became reality when I began dealing with numerous contractors and had several custom homes built over the last decade. So called licensed professionals either never showed up for the job or took the money and ran; as was the case with the custom home we currently reside in, an absolute horror story. Lessons learned, I ve become far more skeptical and cautious with any contractor from New Mexico. This is certainly not the case with Julian and his team. Their promptness, professionalism and attention to detail rarely (if never) happens in New Mexico. They ve instilled in me a new found belief that professionalism is alive and well here!
