They were very responsive in re-addressing even with minor adjustments. Definitely recommend."

Jack will problem-solve and guide us as needed but never "up-sells" unnecessarily. And JCB is a full-service contractor. Recently, they painted, replaced all the rotting wood on the exterior of our house, among other things. In the past, they have replaced a wall damaged by a water leak, refinished our basement and painted the entire interior of our house. I trust them implicitly."

"Pryor Construction was previously owned by a neighbor of ours, and following a competitive bidding process in 2006, we contracted with them for nearly $300,000 of work on a major kitchen and bath renovation for the back portion of our 100 year old home. In general, their work was excellent, and together with the oversight of our architect, the addition integrated nicely with the original century old woodwork. Although like any major project there were points of disagreement as to the results of his work, we were ultimately able to reach reasonable accommodations for remediations. That is until a few years ago when we noticed cracks in the bottom concrete step off of our back porch, which they constructed. While this is the newest concrete installation it was unlike anything we experienced with any of the other concrete installed at this house which we have owned for over twenty-five years. We patched it and hoped that would be the end of it. One year later the crack extended across the entire step, both horizontally and vertically. Upon further inspection we realized that the poured concrete step contained clay bricks evidently as a filler, and it is said that their inclusion resulted in the premature failure. We notified Pryor Construction of apparent substandard construction practice, but never heard back from them. Two years later, and the deterioration of the step continued such that we had to undertake a more comprehensive remediation. In the course of demolishing the existing concrete work, we came to realize that the steps did not contain a random brick or two, but clay bricks were an integral part of the concrete work. Full sized bricks were present throughout the concrete, not broken up to even imitate an aggregate, but complete bricks were used in lieu of concrete, which I believe is more expensive than brick. When we presented Pryor Construction with an invoice for the cost of the remediation efforts including over 1,500 pounds of concrete, and related costs of labor and materials for demolition and reconstruction, the prior owner Pete Pryor,denied that his work was substandard and refused to pay our costs. Note that no bricks were part of this extensive renovation, so they had to have been brought in specifically as a filler for the concrete step. It seems that Pete Pryor sold the business several years ago, and is evidently no longer affiliated with the company. The current management of Pryor Construction simply refused to respond to my communications. It may be practical and financially advantageous to obfuscate responsibility for such items as a: an unevenly laid plank floor; or a prematurely rotting section of a porch, in order to negotiate a cost of full remediation. The hiding/substituting of brick for concrete, is simply a fact that is irrefutable. Based upon the opinion of disinterested experts, this is a substandard construction practice, which led to the the premature failure of the concrete step. The fact that Pryor Construction then failed to immediately take responsibility for at best an obvious breakdown in their internal quality control procedures, while continuing to hold himself out as the “ Renovator of choice” who “PROVIDE QUALITY WORKMANSHIP”, is really alarming and and in my opinion is a false claim. Although our architect provided construction management oversight, even the best can miss things in areas where construction practices are presumed to be standard and straightforward. Given the length of time since the work was done and for the deterioration of the steps to become noticeable, I doubt if it is covered by any form warranty, so I can not pursue any additional steps for compensation. My suggestion is that existing and potential clients of Pryor Construction question current management as to what might have happened in this case, so they are well informed of the risks they are undertaking, and the level of oversight which may be required."

"I've been working with John and his sub contractors on this property since August of 2013, and they have been patient, responsive, and transparent throughout, especially appreciated when my property insurance had to get involved and they worked with them to get them details, quotes, and insight, as well as being a much-needed professional advocate that I never would have been able to accomplish on my own. I have no doubt that John's professionalism helped speed the process along.
When I realized I would have to switch contractors from my first GC, out of everyone I called, John was the only one who brought someone with him for a second opinion on his assumptions, and even sent additional subs out to ensure the accuracy of the quote. I have had nothing but great experiences with him and everyone he works with since.
