Jim McDonnell Contracting

The company was professional, did a clean and beautiful job for us, personable, and pricing was on point for the project. I would highly recommend this company for all of your contracting needs.

David was great to work with. Very good with communication from letting me know of his arrival time to giving me some suggestions about the paint color and what would work best. I really appreciated all his suggestions and am ever grateful that he worked me into his schedule to get my project done quickly!

David did a wonderful job. I will hire him again.

Had our porch painted and it went well! They were super efficient, got it done quickly, cleaned up well and even set the porch back up! Was very happy with the job. Thank you!

David did an excellent job power washing the house. Our house looks so clean now! He did a great job painting the shutters. My house looks brand new. I definitely will hire him again.

Mr. McDonnell was very friendly and professional and would not hesitate to engage in his services again. Mr. McDonnell had his own tools to execute the job in a timely manner thank you Respectfully Leonard Fletcher

Very professional from first meeting till end or project’s completion would definitely hire again

Excellent very attentive to the details

Jim McDonnell Contracting is an amazing company. All the work we asked them to do was done correctly and efficiently. Will hire again.

Extremely responsive. Done in the agreed upon timeframe. Excellent results. Went the extra mile to make it a great experience.

Dave and Beth did a great job - again. This is the 2nd job he’s done for us and we’ll be bringing Dave and his crew back for more work in the near future. The quality of work is great, they are friendly and considerate to have in our home. And the cost is more than reasonable. I highly recommend Dave!

Dave and Tess did a awesome job and will have them back to do more rooms in the future

Excellent. They were very through and detail oriented. Always made sure we knew of any changes or issues.

Very well, process was completed in two days.

David did an awesome job painting my porch, it looks great!! He was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. He was responsive to my request for a quote, was able to do the job in a timely manner (big win), covered everything to keep the mess to a minimum and cleaned up afterwards. Looking forward to being a repeat customer!

Excellent! Painting job was perfect. Great communication and we really enjoyed working with Dave- so nice! We plan on using them again.

The crew led by David did a phenomenal job. Paintwork included refinishing and painting aluminum siding, trim around entire house, doors & window frames, and basically renovating my carport/screened-in patio. The team was meticulous and professional and after about 7 days of work quite literally transformed my house. Also, the cost for the job was entirely reasonable. Thank you!

They were very careful and thorough. They took their time and were very detail oriented. Gave some suggestions which I really appreciated. Very enjoyable to deal with.

We hired David McDonnell of Jim McDonnell Contracting, Housepainting, PowerWashing in spring of 2020. The work was performed September through November 2020. The business was previously owned by his father. They are a Lancaster, PA based business. Doing business with David has been disappointing & frustrating, quite opposite of how we previously felt. David & crew left our house in early November 2020 after spending 3 months painting our 127 year old Victorian home. He said he would return to finish up painting touch ups—specifically on our front porch, back porch down spouts & a few other spots. Also he would bring back all of the unused paint to do further touch ups & reinstall the front porch light while here. Naturally I believed him. When the Thanksgiving holiday rolled around we heard from him again telling me that he would be coming back soon. That was David’s last word until he reached out again in February 2021 when he asked for a review on Angi and he had said again, “see you soon” indicating that he would once again be returning. We liked David, trusted him and he did nice work, so I gave him a very good online review. I continued to promote his business with his sign in our front yard until May when I finally gave up on seeing him again. I no longer believe David because that’s what I classify as lies, leading the customer to believe in something you obviously have no intent on providing. Additionally I have also been unable to find anyone in the region to fix the 2 roof roof tiles that John & Curtis(his crew) knocked loose when replacing a roofline trim board. They did not want to repair it & said better to get a roofer to repair. All roofing contractors contacted since it happened will not repair but only replace the entire roof costing in excess of $25k. During the past 8 months those loose roof tiles hanging there are now causing damage to our roof. There are no other roof issues, just 2 loose tiles. Very upsetting as it did not have to happen this way. The process has shown us that he & his crew are personable & do nice work, however they struggle with communication & being honest. They have proven that following up & having accountability doesn’t happen with these guys. If you do ever hire David make sure you get EVERYTHING done before you give him that final payment.

Excellent work, on time, and great prices.

Fabulous! We needed our whole house painted after some other interior construction was done. The other contractors had major issues with delays, but David and his team were responsive and flexible and were still able to finish their job ahead of schedule. High quality work, good attention to detail, and a great team of workers. Will definitely hire them again when it’s time for other projects.

Great! Hard workers. Always timely and responsive

Dave was very professional and his work ethic was excellent. At the end of each day he made sure he showed me what was done and it was to my satisfaction.

David and his team are amazing. We were left high and dry by another painter not even half way through the project. David jumped right in and did a fantastic job. They took extreme care in keeping areas clean and organized. We had two vaulted areas done as well as having wallpaper removed and painted. The results are amazing and we already have another list of things to have done ready to go. If you need painting these are the people to hire. A+.

It went great! David was very courteous, respectful and professional. He was on time, did the task to my liking and the price was reasonable. Would truly recommend to anyone!
