Can we trust your quote to be accurate?
We differ from many competitors in that we prepare detailed, accurate price quotes. We do not “low-ball” to get jobs. Our final price averages +/- 2% of original quote, unless the customer requests additional work or we encounter unforeseen problems.
How many projects like mine have you completed in the past year?
Over 20 years in business and 35 years in the industry, Jack has successfully completed most types of projects. We aim for quality rather than quantity, but we like to get in and out of the job as quickly as possible for the client’s sake!
May I have a current list of references?
Absolutely — and we encourage you to call them! I will share references when I visit your home. You also can learn more about us before we walk in the door reading online reviews. Please visit the Reviews page on this website and watch the client videos.
How many projects do you have going at one time?
This depends on the size of the project. We prefer to only have 2-3 projects in design and construction at any given time.
May I have a list of business referrals or suppliers?
Yes. This information is available upon request.
Are you a member of a national trade association?
We are active members of NARI (National Association of the Remodeling Industry)
