Chris Jackson's Contracting

They were very prompt, and very professional. I called just yesterday for some more information and he said he had to call me back. I was very impressed with his responsiveness and how quickly he did get back to me.

Chris came to our home about three weeks before the jobs to give us an estimate. He brought a crew of three for a full day's work. One man worked on the door after removing it and laying it on a trestle. Another worked on cleaning up the stain in the living room ceiling, then smoothing it over with spackling, and painting it. A third worked on the patio awning and railings and was joined later in the day by the other two when they had finished their work on ceiling and door. Chris arrived with the men and set them to work. He left to attend to other jobs and came back during the day with supplies and to supervise further. He joined his employee in working on the door. All of the jobs were completed to a very high standard. The workmen wasted no time even when Chris was not personally present. All were very courteous. My wife and I were very pleased with the result. The living room ceiling repair is 'invisible'. The patio awning is sparkling; the old oak door looks like new.

Chris was great from the very first visit. he did not try to usell me on a lot of things I didnt need and was helpful in suggesting windows that we would be happy with. I was satisfied with the price and the contract was very basic and simple. he asked for a minimum deposit and estimated arrival time and said he would call to schedule when he had a firm delivery date. Windows were in sooner than he expected and he was prompt to schedule a date to start. Communications were always great with Chris with prompt return calls. On the day of installation, crew of three showed and began work. Nice crew of guys that I met one the second (last) day. They installed everything, hauled away the old windows and even did trim work inside the house (which I was not expecting). Also they patched some cracks in the plaster that were there before they started. The workmanship was excellent and the guys were great. Chris delivered what he promised at the quoted price and in a good time frame. I dont typicallly hire contracters because I can do a lot of the work myself and sometimes its more hassle than it is work but this was the best experience Ive had with a contractor in a VERY very long time. Not only will I use Chris again, I ahve already booked my next project with him and will continue to use him for projects. After everyone was paid and a congratulatory beer had, I asked some advice on what materials to use on my flat tin roof. Chris and his guy actually grabbed up a ladder to take a look so they could tell me what materials to use. That's above and beyond i would say. You wont go wrong using these guys for your projects. I'm looking forward to my plumbing project to get done so that I can write my next review of them.

I’ve worked with Chris for many years on my home improvement projects and have always enjoyed and been satisfied with the experience. Recently, Chris and his team came over to work my “honeydew” list. As always, the team is prompt, friendly, professional, tidy, and trustworthy. They are actually a pleasure to have in my home and the work is always top-notch. They had to purchase some parts to complete the work. Chris bravely removed a hornet's nest that he found when cleaning the gutter! They tidied up so well that you wouldn’t notice work had been done. Chris is my go-to guy for anything related to home repair.

The job was done in a professional way at a very reasonable price.

Chris came on time with a crew of three. Each had their own tasks, but Chris supervised while he installed lights, ect. The whole team was professional. At the end of the day everyone cleaned up and left me one happy camper. I will definately have them come out again for some more fix-it "honey-do" projects in the fall.

They were punctual and responded to my callsl. However, Chris lacked professionalism when he had to come over to redo some things I was unhappy with. They did do some extra things like putting in new door knobs on a couple of cabinets, installing a small closet door, and changing the globes on our ceiling fan. However, the workmanship was poor overall. After the work was completed, I saw chips in the new baseboard (probably from installation) but even so, it should have been smoothed out and repainted. The paint job and overall workmanship were quite inadequate and not professional - especially for the cost. We did not know that we had to be specific about the kind of prep work we wanted to have done prior to the painting. Our suggestion is you need to specify to Chris what needs to be prepped. We thought that when we hire someone to paint, we assumed that the prep work would be professional. Unfortunately, it wasn't. Chris even said, "You should have mentioned that you wanted a Cadillac type job." So, again, be very specific and have it written exactly what you want them to do. By the way, Chris did not ask us what type of paint job we wanted. So we didn't think of the question. Also, the paint strokes are uneven in certain places. To give credit to Chris, he did come back twice after the job was completed to correct a number of areas with which we were unhappy in both the paint job and sanding and painting where the new baseboards were chipped. In addition, when the new baseboards were installed, they removed our phone jack and didn't re-install it. It was re-installed during one of the times the crew had to return. Overall, the quality of the corrections was still poor. Chris kept saying that for the price, we got a good deal. However, what we forgot to mention to Chris is that we had already purchased the flooring. By the way, we again have to have Chris come back. When he was there looking at the work that I wanted redone, I did point out a spot on the wall in the dining room that I thought the painter had missed. Chris said it was the lighting in my dining room. Well, the painter clearly missed a significant and obvious spot on the wall which would be hard for a professional painter to overlook, but this painter did. So I now have to call Chris again and have the painter do that spot that he missed and most likely repaint that entire section of the wall.

EXCELLENT, prompt communications. He came when he said he would, finished on time, and called during the project to make sure I was satisfied with its progress. I love my new porch! He and his workers were very nice and did a beautiful job. VERY happy with the finished product. I would recommend Chris Jackson to anyone needing to hire a contractor. I was worried that the project may not be completed in a timely fashion, because some days, workers were only there a couple of hours. However, I was very pleasantly surprised because I had been given a date of completion estimate that was right on the nose. Craftsmanship is excellent. Customer service was excellent. Workers were exceptionally nice and courteous.

The day I called for an estimate he was there that same night right on time. He was honest and even told us about the coupon on Angie's list. He came on the day he said he would, put drop cloths down for less mess (which was all cleaned up when he was done), and the lights look great. He did tell us that he had to do some special wiring but would not charge us extra for it. I would call and recommend him.

With both the estimate and the installation, he was very prompt and professional. He special ordered the door and installed it within two weeks, as promised. I was there while Chris installed the door. Even though in my mind it was just a door to an unfinished basement, I was impressed with how detail oriented he was with respect to the installation. I've already phoned Chris about another job.

I found Chris' manner to be refreshingly direct and his employees unfailingly professional and courteous. They were punctual and came around the same time every day for two weeks. They also kept me updated on the progress and alerted me to any concerns, which were addressed promptly. I am very pleased with the quality of the work they provided for all the projects they completed. I contacted five contractors, who came to my house, received four quotes, and am satisfied that I chose the right company. I would definitely work with this company again in the future.

He did a great job, was respectful, and did exactly what I asked.

Very professional contractor. Was timely on the initial consultation. Very interested in the home and his ability to perform services that we had in mind.We ended up not remodeling the entire kitchen as we thought we would, so we did not choose to have him do work. However, if we were going with the bigger job in the future we would call him again.

He did a good job. He came when he said he was going to. The workers stayed until I was satisfied with the job.

I have had really good results with them. They do the work they promise to do. They clean up after they're done. I would definitely recommend them.

Their responsiveness, punctuality, conscientiousness, manners, and overall kindness were as extraordinary as the conscientious and excellently performed work they did. Chris always called back promptly, they came exactly when they said they would, they did the work carefully, they cleaned up after themselves, they were extremely gracious, they answered questions for me, and the price was excellent. After all this, I trusted Chris enough to have him select and install an attic/whole-house fan (normally I am the type to research and decide for myself) and it was an excellent choice, which made a DRAMATIC difference in the temperature of my second floor, as well as my electric costs. Upon inquiring about the obvious flow of the team and general good cheer of them while working really hard, I learned from his crew that they are friends who have worked for him for many years, and he treats them great. They said they also answer to "the one upstairs", and I asked for no specifics about their individual spiritual beliefs, but this simple explanation did answer my question about the surprising consistency of their conscientious and kind attitudes about all they did. They were also nice to and good role models for the neighbor kids whom others might have found to be bothersome, and my dog came to love them and look forward to their arrival, they were all great with him also. They're all real class-acts in their work performance, and character. I have since recommended them to others, who were equally thrilled with their work and conscientiousness, and were shocked to find a contractor who came exactly when promised every time. If there is ever any work that needs to be done around my house and it is something they do, they will be my first choice. Five-stars to Chris Jackson's Contracting for me!!!!!

He did everything that he said he would. He was a perfectionist who took pride in his work. His advice was right on. I own three rental units and contracted him for upgrades and repairs before he could get away. I was lucky to find him.

This is an old house, and some wood had rotted, so when heavy equipment was previously placed on the stair, it fell in. He arrived in a timely manner and performed all work in a polite, professional way. I had asked for a repair of the steps, and not a replacement. When I saw that most of the old steps remained, he explained that he had removed what was rotten, but the remaining wood was actually sturdy enough to last.. He quoted a fair price for the job and I was satisfied. When I asked about the breakdown in price, he gave me two different responses. First, he told me it was by the job, and then he followed up by saying he charges $150 per hour. At our job, he had a crew member with him for an hour for a two hour job. I would most likely not use him in the future due to the hourly wage.

.He did excellent. They did very good work. They were always on time and answered any questions I asked. The caulking on the floor trim filled a gap from a piece of wood being too short.

this work was done in my elderly mothers home, she had stuffed under clothes in the toilet he was patient and kind. I really appreciate him, seems like he can do everything. good person to know

Chris visited my home to look over the kitchen work I wanted done and helped me prioritize the "to do" list according to what I could afford given the condition of the house. When the work day came, Chris and his two helpers arrived when they said they would and did the work as expected, in the amount of time he predicted. The team seemed to work well together with Chris double-checking any tasks that he delegated to his team. Good communication throughout. At the end of the work day, he wrote an invoice on the spot and double checked that everything was to my satisfaction, and thanked me for the business. They left the work areas reasonably clean, if not spotless. I do wish we had communicated more precisely about the scrap and waste generated by the job (specifically a small amount of copper pipe and the packaging from the new dishwasher), but in the scope of a job well done, that's really trivial hindsight. I'm very likely to hire Chris & his crew again - he was a pleasure to deal with and runs a tight ship.

First off, let me tell you that this was no easy job!!! I really don't think any of us (my husband and I, Chris, or the guys) thought it would end up being the huge project it turned out to be. They started work the first week of November, and are almost finished. There are just few finishing touches that remain. We designed the new shower to have a Gothic shape to the doorway with 3 Gothic niches added for products, and 2 seats in diagonal corners. The shower area itself takes up an area that is 5'x5', and the walls are up to 8 ', I believe. The tile is Travertine, and was a bugger to cut in the correct angles at times. Tony, our main man, was infinitely patient and worked so hard getting the details right. My husband is an Electrical Engineer/Computer Programmer, and to say that he pays a lot of attentiont to detail is an understatement. There were times that there was miscommunication, but we all worked through that, and at all times, Chris' team, no matter who was there that day, acted professionally and really tried to make us, the exacting customers, happy. And I fed them cookies, so I feel I did my part. We did change the design a few times, and added an extra tiled wall next to the shower to make it flow better after our original agreement, but Chris and his team adapted well and worked with us to create something incredible. I read the "dispute" report, and quite frankly, am thinking some other contractor showed up for that customer, NOT Chris, because Chris and his guys are the consummate professionals and just all around good guys. They show up on time, they alert you to potential issues, they work really hard, they produce quality workmanship, and they clean up after each day of carnage that occurs. Sure, I did think that by now we would have to consider adopting some of the younger guys, or including the team in family reunions since it took a long time to get things done, but I would not have it any other way. The hard work paid off, and I have an absolutely stunning master bathroom. And, being able to trust a bunch of strangers in your house is not easy - this was easy. Good guys, all of them. There were days when I would come home to a houseful of teenagers (mine....) who didn't hear me come in, and would get help from Tony bringing grocery bags into the kitchen from my car. Again - just nice people. My 77 year old mom was singing Christmas carols while I made cookies on Dec. 23, and they guys were listening and told her what a beautiful voice she has - she is a recent Cancer survivor, and she was so tickled that they took the time to comment. These days, it is hard to find people who take time to look beyond their own issues to compliment an elderly woman. They could have been irritated; instead, they were nice to her. We will DEFINITELY hire Chris and his team again when we need some experts. Maybe I will wait until they stop twitching when they hear our last name though. LOL

I was very pleased with all of the work performed by Chris Jackson's Contracting. There were several small areas / concerns after finishing the project and they were very quick to send someone out to correct the problem and/or answer any questions that we had about the work. I would recommed Chris Jackson's Contracting to anyone.

Chris and his crew were on time every morning...such nice people! They were working in our small condo with the challenge of limited space. Each day they had to shift things from one place to the other to get things done, and did it well. Chris notices the small details and his work show it! I also appreciate his pointing out possible future problems (the shower tile) and dicussing different repair options. They cleaned up everyday and took any mess to the dumpster. Chris & his crew are so easy to work with and a lot of fun! We will DEFINETLY call them for the next job!

Chris arrived when scheduled. Very pleasant and honest. Gave us a fair price. Able to do a wide variety of jobs we needed done. We were quite satisfied with his work. No problems.
