Chris Jackson's Contracting

Was able to reset the recessed light sockets back within their respective frames/brackets. Turns out it was such an easy job that he didn't charge and just asked for more business in the future. I wasn't there so he easily could have generated a story and said that it took an hour of labor ( not including parts) to fix it and charged me accordingly. I would have paid. Very honest contractor who was also EXCEPTIONALLY punctual compared to most. This is a contractor that I WILL call FIRST when I have an address that needs to be addressed.

Chris and his team performed a demolition and installation in our kitchen. He was easy to communicate with, came out to do an estimate and explain all of the work and arrived on time the day of the job and finished in the timeframe promised. His team also did some small touch up jobs that weren't part of the original project for nothing extra! Would definitely hire again.

What do you say when things could not have gone better. Chris had done some work for us about 10 years ago at our old house and things went very well then. Chris responded quickly to my message outlining what work we wanted done at our new home and scheduled an appointment within a week to see the jobs. He outlined how he he thought the work should be done and how much it would cost. He was bit more expensive than my lowest estimates, but significantly cheaper than the higher estimates. We reached agreement on the spot and he schedules the work to be done in about two weeks. He showed up on the scheduled day and time with his helper. He had all the materials he needed, did the work exactly as outlined, and did an excellent job. He is a reliable, efficient, and quality handyman. I recommend him highly!

Chris came out promptly and gave me an competitive quote. I really appreciated his desire to get done what I needed, not sell me services I didn't need. For example, I thought I needed to completely replace the tub surround in the bathroom and Chris indicated that simply removing the old caulk and grout and replacing it would probably be fine as the materials were still sound. He was great at thinking outside the box and getting to the ultimate goal of the repair rather than just doing what I thought needed to be done. We eventually realized that I needed to file an insurance claim for the repairs so we didn't end up using his services, but I would absolutely call him for future needs.

Chris and his crew did a great job in prep and finish. Caulking can be a tough job, especially to make it look neat and finished. He accomplished both.

His crew was on time, very professional and friendly and did very good work.

Chris Jackson is very knowledgable about just about everything you'd need to have done in your house. He is very well versed and experienced. I recommend him highly based on my work relationship with him. After so many years and so many different jobs, he's done plumbing, contracting, repairs, remodels. Most recently it was a small job in my kitchen, but other times it's been much more.

He did a great job. After he left, I could not put my SUV into the garage as the garage door was too low. I didn't want to damage my new vehicle. I texted him about the problem. He and his assistant came back within 10 minutes to make the adjustment. It was an easy fix and was very satisfied with his work. This is the 3rd time I've hired Chris Jackson to do the work for me.

Chris and his crew went above and beyond what I expected (and I expected a lot since they came so highly recommended on Angie's List). Their work was excellent and done without any delays. I highly recommend Chris Jackson's Contracting.

Chris responded to my query about an estimate in a timely fashion and was very prompt for the appointment. We decided to go with Chris not only because his estimate was midline of the others, but because he was local and his response time and punctuality. When the work was scheduled he explained who of his men would be performing the work, Tony & Tony's son, Nick. They arrived just as scheduled and the first thing they did was put down tarps so as not to track - this was excellent! The first day the demolish was complete but they made sure they had the vanity installed so we could use the sink, and they tidied up after themselves putting all tools, etc out of the way. They finished the project within the time estimated -- being efficient, professional, and cordial. The glass mosiac tile they installed looks better than I imagined it would - this was not just a backsplash - I wanted the tile all along the bottom half of the walls...they did an awesome job! My husband used to do most of the home improvement type things himself, but due to an illness he no longer can do these things, so, after a search of a few years and several trial and errors, I'm happy to know we have finally found someone we can call with confidence to do those home improvement/repair jobs. I only wish we had discovered Chris and his team five years ago!

He had been recommended to me by a friend. He said he was with Angie's List so I gave him a chance. I'm now out $3500 and he didn't even do the work. He doesn't do any of the work, he just brings in handymen to do the work for him. He was never on site. He installed a doorbell and it only lasted for two weeks. He tried telling me the brand new doorbell I bought was faulty, then he changed his tune and said I didn't have enough amps. No attempt from him whatsoever to fix it. I'm disabled and need to be able to hear the doorbell ring. He was supposed to paint two rooms, but he only applied the primer. When I asked about when he was going to paint, he said it was done. I pointed out that it was just the primer and he said that it was paint. The can clearly states that what he used was just primer. So he painted two rooms, but only primed the ceilings. So I paid for him to paint three rooms including ceilings and all he did was paint two rooms and prime the ceilings. You can even still see the cracks in one of the ceilings. When I pointed it out to one of the workers, they called Chris and he said, "that's all the work I'm going to do." His phone when you call says he's "Angie's List #1 guy." That's a joke. I needed a specific list of things done and none of them were completed all the way.

Chris and his crew did an excellent job on the drop ceiling in the basement! I am extremely impressed by the work they did for me!

Chris does everything around my house, from hanging pictures to installing hot water heaters to handling plumbing issues. He installed a sturdy, beautiful hand rail on our stairs, has wired lamps, installed ceiling fans. I feel there is nothing that he cannot do. I trust him implicitly because he always does quality work.

Everything went real well. The work was high quality and everything was cleaned up. We have a few more jobs we are looking to have done in the spring and we definitely will be using Chris and team.

Great! When the job was completed everything was vacuumed and cleaned. I was extremely satisfied.

Very well. The shelving was done perfectly and neatly. The tiles in the foyer was replaced, and the basement bathroom tile was also done perfectly.

Everything went well. Chris did a fine job with the shelving in the closets; his worker installed a curtain rod that we had trouble installing, and he also replaced vinyl planks in the foyer. They also installed tile flooring in the basement bathroom. All the jobs were professionally done, and we were very pleased with everything.

Not a good experience at all. In short, I think this project, while rather straightforward, was over the head of Chris's workmen. I also believe I overpaid for the product received. The quality of the carpentry was average at best. The quality of wood used was not good...multiple cracks etc. I had to ask for things that I wanted several times over and I'm am still now going back and correcting myself. They secured a cabinet on the floor by drilling it in to a drain pipe. I figured this out because a strange sound was coming from the pipe that was never there before, after the cabinet was installed. I still had to convince Chris after several conversations to remove the cabinet...which to his credit he came back and did. They drilled and fed capped pipes through the same cabinet without ever asking me, which looked awful. Never seen that done before and multiple other qualified people I spoke with said the same. Other plumbing completed was fine and is working properly, although it's a bit sloppy compared to work I've had done from other plumbers. Wall painting was a bit sloppy as well. Professionalism was not great. I never felt like there was a lot of 'active listening' going on, had to ask for and explain things I wanted multiple times. Additionally, one of the workmen referred to my wife as 'baby'. Completely unacceptable. Found that out after the job was complete. I gave the work to Chris without bidding it out because I trusted his work based on previous experience, albeit roughly 5-6 years ago. That was clearly a mistake. On the plus side, he was responsive to calls/texts and offered to do a service for me in the future pro bono given they drilled in to my drain pipe. That said, I won't do business with them again so that's really of no value to me.

Because the concrete floor of the site was uneven, Chris and his crew had to build a wood foundation and then put the shed on the foundation. They did it in only two days! The job was well done. We have been using the shed ever since without any problems.

Responsiveness was excellent, the way it should be for all contractors, but sadly, is not. Chris seems receptive to smaller jobs, which is great for somebody like me who owns a smaller home. Almost any job we ever have will be on the small side. The work was completed on time. The initial scheduled date was rained out and Chris called in a timely manner to get another date scheduled. A small section on the steps was missed, and the capping of the gas line wasn't exactly what I was expecting, but I was not present for the job and thus didn't get a chance to ask why it was done the way it was done. Overall, we were very satisfied with the service. I hope to use them again for future jobs.

I was very pleased with everything he did for me. His crew was also very nice, and helpful. They did the foundation around my home.

Chris Jackson Contracting was able to get me an estimate within a few days of my initial call and start the work within a few days of my decision to go with the company. Chris and his men were extremely polite, helpful, friendly, professional, and considerate while they spent a handful of days working in and around my house. I had many different projects and they were able to handle them all. I even added some things while they were working and I feel like the estimate for the new work was more than fair.

I needed a service that Mr. Jackson did not provide. He directed me to a shop that could. He answered the phone immediately and was very professional.

Chris was visit on time for our initial estimate visit and was able to have work completed one week after initial visit. Workers arrived on time, covered plants and other areas and did an excellent job of painting our trim.

This is the second time I used Chris Jackson and I can't say enough about the quality of work done by his crew. The crew are very personable and diligent in doing a great job seeing that all details are met to my satisfaction. They were here for several days and each day removed and swept all debris. OUTSTANDING, thanks to Chris.
