We invested an inordinate amount of time pursuing a major project with them for a number of months as the scope of work increased. After we were almost done and on the same page, ready to sign contracts to move forward & break ground, they backed out, forcing us to start all over with a different contractor. Heard they got some other more profitable simple jobs. Although we were stunned at such unprofessional behavior, we were eventually very grateful that we feel dodged a bullet. At the end of the day, this company would have been a nightmare on such a big project. Yes, they have an extremely slick selling presentation with all kinds of high tech software and online project management promises. But they only have one local guy (who seems very nice) and the management of the company was all out of town. The local guy had no authority to make ANY decisions—had had to go to them for everything. Every single time we had to meet to review or revise the scope of work as we were putting the initial project together, we would have to wait an entire month until a manager could be in town. In hindsight, we had such a problem just getting things underway, we cannot imagine how bogged down it would have become down the road.

Good Afternoon, we apologize that your experience With J & R was not pleasing. Our General Manager was young in the company and was relying on support staff in Lexington for all design work. Since then we have taken an office in downtown Owensboro added multiple staff and certified interior designer in-house, allowing us to become Owensboros top remodeling company with all local staff. We would like the opportunity to speak to you to resolve any grievances that you may have. Feel free to call between 8am and 5pm (270) 570-0578 Thanks.08/01/2018

It went really well from the start, I had a deadline that I thought was pretty tough, but J & R Construction wasn't phased by it at all. Jimmy and Josh both came out to discuss the details with me at the property and advised me on what they recommended I do and how the options would go. Then they went back to the office and estimated the project and got me an official written estimate. The job did not exceed that estimate and they met the deadline. There were multiple elements involved, electrical, ceiling fan, removal of a garage door, drywall, flooring, vinyl siding, a window, air-conditioning unit, etc. I'm very happy with the results and I highly recommend them to my friends and family for any of their remodeling projects so I also recommend them here on Angie's List.

They were wonderful, but the day after the election we decided it was not a good time to go in debt, because the financial and moral compass of our nation were in doubt with a insane person masquerading as the leader of the free world.

They were going to do interior remodeling for us, knock out a wall and redo the hardwood floors. Also, replace a front porch and add a portico.

It always seems to take forever with remodeling, as was the case this time. However, I believe things went as well as possible considering the sequential installation nature of the different elements. Quick to address any concerns during the process.

We recently had J & R Construction remodel our downstairs family room and are very happy with their work! They took the time to walk us through each stage of the project so we always knew exactly what to expect and when to expect it. Jimmy is very conscientious about the people he hires and all the contractors and subcontractors are well-vetted. Seth was very helpful with design ideas and in selection of carpeting and paint. We never felt uncomfortable with anyone working in our home. They were careful to clean up, respectful of our home and privacy, and very patient with our two dogs - never once letting them out of the yard. We would definitely hire them again for any future projects. We received bids from five different companies and while J & R were not the least expensive, the quality of their work is well worth any savings we may have gained by using an inferior contractor.

Remodel of downstairs family room. The room was not insulated and just had wood panel over the studs. They removed the paneling and added insulation and drywall, new carpet & pad, a gas fireplace and removed the bar and made it into a closet.

The price they quoted was incredibly high - over thirty thousand for a straight-forward bathroom remodel. The plans they drew up (which is what we paid for) were ok, but not particularly professional looking. Overall, it was worth $150.00 just for their time and to pick their brains for ideas, but we simply cannot afford the price.

The guys came out and spoke with us about what we were looking to do - remodel a bathroom to make it handicapped accessible for our daughter. They were very friendly and prompt, and seemed genuinely interested in getting us what we wanted.

Thanks Mr. Member. With a comprehensive detailed handicap accessible bathroom, it was a lot of work to re work all the framing and make that curb less shower and all the tile needed for the space along with all the safety equipment. Thanks for the feedback and will look to see if we can save on future costs without sacrificing our quality.11/10/2015

Tried to sell me on a complete and expensive remodel that I didn't want. They left in a huff and then sent the incomplete floor plan.
