Impeccable, exquisite work; the best contractor I?ve worked with in my many remodels. T. James is just now completing a major remodel at the home where I live and work so I had months of day-long interaction with Todd and his crew. These are very considerate people and very skilled craftsmen. Todd was a breeze to work with throughout, flexible, accommodating, attentive to all the details while ensuring that the work be done as quickly as possible at a rate I consider a bargain given what other contractors had bid. Cale, the foreman for my job is a master, overseeing a first class crew. Come take a look at the work. Though the project was more practical than luxury-oriented, the precision gives the whole house real class. I highly recommend these guys, and am glad I discovered them here on Angie?s list.
I saw Todd socially a few weeks ago, and although he is currently committed on two very large projects in the area, he indicated he could accept a third project for me at my convenience ( which I will happily commence soon).
I wouls recommend T James Construction for any project, large or small,l without reservation.
As I stated the project is not fully completed but my experience in the middle of this project is as good as it was in the beginning. Todd and his crew are reliable, trustworthy, and very skilled. My experience is that Todd is accomodating and becomes a real partner with the homeowner, sincerely taking pride in his work and a sense of care for his customers. Everyday I look forward to seeing what progress has taken place, and I am so excited to see the finished home. More to come!
The foundation and earthquake retrofitting was completed by Dec 2011 and was previously reviewed (All A?s!)
The second phase of work took longer than expected and unfortunately, more budget. While preparing to install new windows, they discovered extensive rot and had to rebuild a good third of the house.
The final phase included a remodeled bathroom which is beautiful, and exactly what I wanted. They were able to salvage the original oak floors and they were refinished to a warm glow.
Todd is very easy to talk to and was always available (even after hours) for questions, advise, coaching, cheerleading and therapy. He has assembled a crew that is very talented, professional and polite. Each one, Cale, Mark, Forrest and Omar bring their own specialties. They are very hard working and take pride in their jobs. Each day, they left the work areas clean and in order. They also were made themselves available to discuss details and answer any questions.
I think the thing that impressed me the most was the finished details. Both Cale and Mark are artists in their own right. As a finish carpenter, Cale added moldings and details which elevated the final result. The wrought iron railings that Mark constructed are exquisite, adding an elegance to the house.
During a project of this scope, there were bound to be set backs and changing priorities. Each was dealt with practical solutions,
openness and a bit of humor!
I lived in the house during the construction. Todd and his crew were very patient and sensitive to my space and while next to impossible, they tried to keep the disruption to a minimum.
The end result is that I have a beautiful house. It turned out better than I could have imagined. I am looking forward to a
continued relationship with Todd and his crew to complete renovations.
left the work spaces at least as clean as they were originally. We're very happy we chose T. James Construction.
Todd's bid was comprehensive and competitive. His many local references were highly favorable and in my view understated the quality of the work perfomed here.
The quality of work performed and attention to detail was astonishing and his crew were a real delight to work with, both personally and professionally. As examples, where new work met existing work, existing work was planed, filled, and textured so that once primed, there was no perceptible transition from old to new. To replace the original solid deck rail, I had suggested a verticle louver which Todd refined and his crew fabricated, which my wife and I believe enhanced the exterior appearance of the house while visually opening the interior without any loss of privacy, and at minimal additional cost. The uprights for the railing were installed inside a 4-sided boxed frame which I had never seen before, resulting in rock solid railings. The work site was always maintained in a spotless condition both at the end of the workday and upon completion of the job.
(During the 7-8 week duration of this project, my wife and I were out of the country 3 weekson a long-planned trip. I had no reservations in giving Todd access the house.)
Additional work required by conditions discovered during the project was always discussed with me before proceeding and was billed at what I feel was a more than reasonable cost.
Our experience has been highly satisfactory. I can recommend T. James Construction without reservation. We expect to continue with some larger projects after the first of the yea.r
