Working with Jeff D’Antonio and The J. Danton company was the absolute worst home renovation experience we ever had and we do not recommend them. We contacted with the J. Danton Company to renovate our bedroom and master bathroom, to be completed in approximately 3 weeks per the contract. We had done three other major renovations using a different general contractor and at least 6 other smaller renovations using general contractors or individual tradesmen, so we were not novices to the home renovation experience and knew what to expect. Unfortunately, Mr. D’Antonio and the J. Danton Co. fell far short of these expectations. - After the third week of work and the job only partially complete, we had an issue with the shower tile installation. After some negotiation, Mr. D’Antonio agreed to redo the tile in the shower. Part way through reinstall, work stopped and neither he nor his crew ever returned, leaving us with an incomplete and unfunctional master suite. - After four weeks of the job remaining idle, we decided to terminate the contract. We negotiated a refund settlement for work not completed and provided Mr. D ’Antonio and the J. Danton Co. a contract termination agreement. - Mr. D’Antonio “delivered” the termination agreement and refund check, leaving it on our front steps, even though we were home at the time. He texted us more than two hours later to inform us he had dropped it off. - Mr. D’Antonio had unilaterally edited the termination agreement, changing the terms, and shorted the refund payment by $1,000. - After employing the services of a lawyer to threaten legal action, we received an additional check for the missing $1,000. - After bringing in another general contractor, it became apparent that there were several issues with the quality of the previous work, including the new shower wall not being plumb, the new door not being level, shower drain not installed properly, and the use of Behrpaint instead of the requested Benjamin Moore.

I interviewed 3 contractors to renovate the kitchen and bath in my newly purchased condo. All three contractors were recommended by the condo office as companies experienced working in my specific condo. They were all recommended by other condo owners. I decided to hire Jeff D'Antonio of the J. Danton Company even thogh he came in at the highest bid. Jeff saw my original ideas for the kitchen remodel and gave me suggestions that were very valuable that I had not considered. He was able to implement my kitchen with a semi-custom look even though we used stock cabinetry. He was mindful of my budget and did wonders with the limited funds available. Jeff and his right hand man, Doug, are very meticulous and hardworking. They made sure the job was done correctly and did not cut any corners. They were always where they said they would be, when they said they would be there. Early in the remodel process, I had one incident where there was water leaking in the kitchen. I called Jeff and he was there in 5 minutes! And it was about 6:30 PM, well past and quot;business hoursand quot;. That was a very impressive response. They also worked very well and patiently with others that I had hired directly. They oversaw the other companies' work and always had my best interest in mind. They are very professional and I highly recommend the J. Danton Company. I am thrilled with my new kitchen and bath.
Description of Work: The J. Danton Company completely renovated my kitchen and worked in conjunction with another company, Porcelite, to renovate my bath.
