Desborough Construction Inc

Sent us to the right people for fixture and tile selection. Colors coordinated beautifully. Tear out of old bathroom carried away and cleanup after work each day. Workmen did an excellent job on plumbing, tile work and painting. The new shower door was a real plus.

John and his crew did exactly what they said they would do. We met three times prior to demo starting. Once for John to take a look at my dated kitchen to formulate a quote. Once to show me cupboard/counter top/paint options, and once for his cupboard/cabinet guys to get measurements. Once that was done he called me a couple weeks later and said we can start this comping Monday and it should take a week. They started on a Monday and finished on the next Monday. John and his guys were clean, friendly, polite and approachable. John met me early in the morning everyday before I left for work to discuss any issues and ask/answer any questions. He also communicates well through email/text/ and phone. Desborough Construction made this process as painless as possible. I would suggest him to anyone I know.

Never even returned the two messages I left.

Wonderfully. John was extremely hard working, professional and detail oriented. The quality of his work was excellent.

It went really well! John and Nate were on the job from start to finish and made us feel comfortable with the full process. At the end of the project we are now left with the master bath that we always wanted. Here are some details: + Planning & Scheduling: It was easy to work with John and his team to build the exact bathroom that we wanted, he was open to our ideas while still letting us know what would work well and what might not -- very helpful to us planning our ideal bathroom + Professionalism: John, Nate and team would be on time every day and were so friendly throughout the day as we were home a lot with a new baby + High quality work: They left us with an absolutely amazing bathroom. Two areas really stand out to us: (1) the tile work is really amazing -- they really did a great job with what I assume is a really tough job (2) the shower is beyond amazing -- they made the shower bigger and created an all glass enclosure with nook and footrest that we really love + Responsiveness: Whenever we had any questions on materials or how things would work, John and team would respond to us very quickly + Cleanliness: They set up 2 air filters every day which really cut down on the dust/disruption which was very important to us because we had a new born. Overall, we are extremely happy with the result and would use Desborough Construction for any future remodeling jobs (this is already the second time we've used them).

I hired Desborough Construction to remodel my condominium. Cosmetic portions of the project: remove wallpaper, repair drywall, paint. Electrical: Install canister lighting and light fixtures. Flooring: Install hardwood flooring throughout condo Bathroom: Complete remodel. Replaced tile flooring, vanity, toilet. Removed tub/shower combo and replaced with walk in shower with beautiful tile detail. I was told the work would take 3 weeks and I was given an estimate. Both were accurate. John Desborough and his co-worker Nate were courteous and professional. They offered suggestions when I asked for them and when I chose a questionable paint color, they contacted me after painting a wall to be sure it was what I wanted. It wasn't what I thought it would be and their proactive questioning saved time and money. I highly recommend Desborough Construction to anyone looking for a quality contractor that takes pride in the work they perform. It was an excellent experience and I am extremely pleased with the results.

John was exceptional on every level. I am in contracting myself and have performed almost every trade myself, so I have a pretty good eye for quality. I was able to source all of the materials myself and have John implement the plan. John not only followed the drawings and instructions closely, but he offered many ideas of his own and improvements on my plans. He has a good eye for design and quality. None of the changes added to my cost. John communicated very well through-out, usually via texts, which was perfect because I have a busy job. John showed up on the agreed-upon day and finished on schedule. We had agreed on a not-to-exceed budget. We had some give and take with reductions in John's scope, but also some adds and improvements. John was very fair and we stayed within budget. John had challenges with performing so much heavy work in a fully occupied building. Many neighbors were difficult to work around, but John handled everyone professionally and courteously. He cleaned up all public areas everyday and left everything clean and tidy. In summation, I could not rate Desborough Construction more highly. His costs are not cheap, but they're fair. Get on his schedule if you can.

John was very responsive and professional. He installed a new metal door leading into our basement. The old framing was damaged, so he removed that and put in all new framing and insulation. Excellent job. Cleaned up afterwards, and actually the work area was cleaner than when he arrived. I wasn't able to be there during the actual install, but John kept me up to date throughout the process via text messages. His company provides a full range of construction, building, and remodeling services. I would welcome the opportunity to work with him again.

the job was done on time and done above average. had to call back for a problem. but was resolved. i had a problem months later. i contacted him numerous times he was always too busy. too busy for such a small job is what i thought. finally he said honestly your husband can easily do this himself. he cant mess it up. well i was going to have him re-do our bathroom but since he is so busy i am afraid he cant handle that job. be carefull. he may be too busy to complete your job

We needed a quick turn around because we wanted to move in asap. John accommodated our time frame by putting extra men on the job and working long hours. We are very pleased with the result. This was our fourth time using Desborough Construction. We did a 1250 sq ft basement refinish with full kitchen and bedroom, rebuilt a three season room, built a roof over or rear entry (which matched our house perfectly) previous to this painting project. We have always been extremely happy with the results. I already have several more projects in mind for the near future where I plan to call John at Desborough construction.

We are very happy repeat customers of Desborough Construction! John remodeled our kitchen, family room, powder room and dining room in a previous remodel. He recently remodeled our bathroom. John and his staff are hard workers and intelligent problem solvers. I am very picky about the finished carpentry and I think their work is perfection! John will not leave the job until you are completely happy with the outcome and they do it right the first time. I've never had to call them back to fix something. I have a great deal of respect for John and his staff and it was a pleasure having them in my home.

John Desborough and his crew at Desborough Construction, Inc. recently completed a fireplace/family room makeover at my house. They took a dingy area and converted it into a masterpiece. This company's attention to detail was beyond anything I would have ever imagined. We love our new room! I highly recommend Desborough Construction, Inc. I cannot say enough about their expertise and professionalism. John had some wonderful ideas to make my vision a reality and it exceeded my expectations!

John was very professional from the time we first met to describe the project through the completion of the project. He and his crew were pleasant and always kept the work area clean. The work included replacing an existing vanity and sink, replacing a toilet, replacing a fiberglass tub with a new jetted tub and surrounding tiled deck, replacing fiberglass shower stall with a tiled shower with built-in niches, installing a tile floor, and replacing standard windows with a glass block window. Throughout the project, John checked with me to ensure that the project was going as planned and met my expectations. The room turned out beautiful! I would use John again without hesitation and would highly recommend him.

John is one of the most professional and conscientious contractors I have ever met. He was prompt when he came out to give me an estimate and he was prompt when the work began. My backsplash tile was installed by Rob, who did a meticulous job even when working with tiles that turned out to be a little thinner than usual. I was a little nervous about doing this project, but John was very helpful with his suggestions and put me at ease. The cleanup after the job was perfect. John even went out of his way to find a product for me to use on my countertop that really made it shine. He is someone who truly wants his customers to be completely satisfied and happy with his work. He is very honest and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to do a kitchen project.

The whole job went very smoothly without any problems. John let me know when the door came in and set up a time to start the job. He started on Saturday and finished the job on Monday. At the end of the day on Saturday they made sure the door was functional and could be locked securely. John and his crew were very nice to deal with and very professional. They tried to keep the dust and mess to a minimum. I plan to have John remodel a powder room and bathroom in the spring.

I sent a detailed request including an attached list of work we would like quoted on and we never received a response from Desborough Construction Inc.

The project was done in a very timely and professional manner. John responded to calls with return calls and texts almost immediately. Workers were on time and neat and clean. I have already referred Desborough Construction to my friends. Would definitely use again

The owner came out and was very nice, but it has been over 2 months since he was at my home and I never heard from him again. He hasnt even responded with he didn't want to do or couldn't do the job.

John and his team were very professional, courteous, and really good at their jobs. They were very conscientious about cleaning up at the end of the day and trying to not disrupt our days. john said it would take 2 weeks plus the glass installation and that's what it took. John also provided suggestions when I asked for them and was willing to make changes that could be made if I wanted to. Rob did most/all of the tile setting and grouting work and it is beautiful. Everyone helped on cutting the tiles and other details. Nate did the plumbing work and other odds and ends (they both worked on the demo) and talked me through placement of fixtures, etc. My only frustration was that it took a while to get on the schedule. Part of that was on me as I needed to make some decisions. But when you're good, your schedule is busy. The price was a bit higher than others, but John itemizes everything so there is no surprise. While I would like a lower price (who wouldn't) it would not keep me from hiring John again. That said I would hire John and his team for anything I need done. In fact we've started talking about the next projects. You can't go wrong with John. This is now probably the nicest room in my house!

Best way to describe the work is John turned my so so house into a dream home, everyone who visits can't believe the transformation. We had several contractors quote the work and the selling point for me was Johns experience and ability to point out ideas and after talking for more than hour, a week later he remembered in detail what we discussed and had a quote spelled out and was very honest. As our project moved along we added more projects and John quickly ordered and adjusted his work flow and we could not have made a better decision on who performed the work on our house. They showed up every day around the same time and put in more than a days hard work. Also explained what they will be working on the next day, and cleaned up after themselves every day. John even did some finishing touches to my stairs leading to my basement that wasn't part of the deal. More than happy in Perry ? Thanks John and your crew Rob Musilek

The work was done in a very professional manner, with great attention to detail. The new bathroom and shower stall make it seem as though I am in a spa. In doing the work, they kept everything as neat as possible, and always cleaned up at the end of each workday. Excellent craftsmanship. The entire crew was pleasant and easy to work with. The one minor flaw I discovered after they werre done, was corrected almost immediately. I would not only use them again, I recommend them very highly.

Workers were professional and timely with the work performed. workers and owner were very flexible with my schedule including days I could not have work performed at the house. It was a pleasure to have John and his crew perform the work. This is the second project I have had Desborough construction perform at the house and will continue to use them for future remodeling needs.

It was a very unsatisfactory experience. They didn't do anything.

I left a voicemail message and John Desborough responded within one day to set an appointment for an estimate. He is punctual, professional and very personable. I had a written estimate within a couple of days. I wanted to purchase the molding and paint it myself prior to installation. Not only was he willing to work with me on that, he bought and delivered the molding a couple weeks ahead of installation, so I had plenty of time to paint it at my convenience. Once we agreed on an install date, he arrived on time, did a beautiful job and left the job site clean and ready for my final coat of paint. Someone I know once quoted John Desborough as saying, "I may not be the cheapest, but they won't be disappointed." I would recommend Desborough Construction to anyone.

If I had to do it all again, I'd never go anywhere else. John and his team are the very best around. Beyond my expectations in every way. We did a total remodel of the kitchen, hardwood floors throughout the entire first floor, painting of everything from ceiling down - just a brand new house! The quality is phenomenal. the attention to detail, better than even I could have and the result is absolutely gorgeous. The kitchen is better than I could imagine, the floors are gorgeous, the painting is just beautiful. John and his crew just finished our total remodel and all I want to do is sit and stare at my house - MY HOUSE! I can't believe it is the same home. John and the guys addresses any and all questions I had. There were no "hidden" elements and fees. I was worried, as many of my friends have had work done and have been presented with an additional "oh by the way" bill in the end. Not with John. He is so good at what he does, he knows what to do and what it costs. I appreciated his and the crew's advice when I asked for suggestions, such as with the way the hardwood floors should be set. Just gorgeous! They are meticulous and perfectionists and my house is literally stunning! They concentrated on my work and got it done very quickly - not like some companies that do a little work here and there every day. I was top priority until the work was done! I got estimates from others that were almost twice the cost (and snotty replies when I declined their service) and couldn't be more happy. I'd be glad to be a reference for anyone that wants to consider Desborough Construction for any work.
