Jeff is simply amazing and I am so very glad someone recommended him to us! We have used him for multiple jobs from new build door installs, to banisters, to foundation plaster, and more. His knowledge and skill set is vast and his work is impeccable. He is extremely professional, incredibly organized, and one of the nicest guys you’ll ever meet. If you need a handyman, Jeff is your guy. Can’t recommend enough!
If you’re looking for an excellent, honest, knowledgeable, and friendly handyman. Jeff of JB’s Construction & Handyman Services is the guy for you. My deck had begun falling apart due to the initial build being improperly done before I purchased the home and issues with the posts. Jeff stopped by, came up with a plan, and got me in on his schedule.
The work he did was excellent! Where before it would have been disaster to go out on the deck. I now have full confidence that it will last the rest of it’s normal life. The posts were replaced and now all joists actually have proper support to hold them to the frame. Fully supporting all of the deck. I truly can not recommend Jeff enough for his work and knowledge. I have some projects down the road that I look forward to working with him again.
I had a basement that needed a kitchen and a few other things done before renting it. It was an entry area through a garage and two big rooms. I contacted Jeff ay JB’s Construction & Handyman Services and he did an exceptional job. I would highly recommend him. Very professional and had some wonderful ideas that saved me money. Very easy to work with. Excellent and friendly workers. Fairly priced. All in all very satisfied and would work with him again. Give him a call.
