Excellent communication and responsiveness/follow-through. Work done according to plan. Crew cleaned up thoroughly after the work was finished. The work ended up being twice the initial estimate which is frustrating but I wouldn't blame that on the crew - they discovered things as they went along that they couldn't have originally seen. Overall just very professional and confidence-instilling. I highly recommend this outfit.

JJ came to look at the situation on the day I called. While he knew what needed to be done, he recommended an analysis by a structural engineer so there would be no questions as to what was done in the future. His engineer produced a stamped report for a reasonable price and in a timely manner.
The final cost was slightly above the estimate, however there ended up being some additional work that needed to be done that was not included in the initial quote.
It was important to me that the work be completed before winter and it was. Nothing is perfect and there were a couple of minor miscommunications regarding scheduling along the way, but when I reached out to JJ, he was quick to respond and reset my expectations.
The actual work was done primarily by Truman. Both JJ and Truman clearly took pride in the quality of the finished product and I would definitely call on them again.
Regarding the ratings. I'm a firm believer that no one is perfect and an A should only be granted to those who perform flawlessly and who complete work ahead of schedule and under budget. Those who meet my criteria of perfection are few and far between. A "B" rating in some categories should NOT be taken in any way as a negative.

Excellent! JJ and I exchanged a few emails about the project and he came out to take a look and give us an estimate. I had guestimated the job would cost a lot more and take a few weeks to finish, but the reality was that it was a reasonable cost - well below what I had anticipated - and the work was done in just a day or two. Our porch looked awesome and was just perfect!
It's really impossible to enjoy the summer evenings outdoors unless you are in a screened porch. The mosquitoes are absolutely relentless. We were able to enjoy many warm summer evenings on our porch without needed to lather up in DEET first.

I called JJ Supple a few weeks ago about a basement remodel. I caught him live on the phone, but he was not available to talk at that point. He said that he'd call back within the day. I haven't heard from him since despite two additional phone calls.
I'll assume that he has too much work to take on new business. But I'd rather that he simply tell me that than fail to return phone calls. Highly unprofessional.

"Very sorry not to get back to you. We get hundreds of calls every month and we simply can't get back to everyone. I run a small business, and we are 100% dedicated to our current projects and customers. New work potential is great. We need it. But we have to draw the line somewhere and that's with our current projects and bringing them in on schedule, budget, and on our word. Thanks for trying us just the same."

I regret that I have to report my experience as a disappointment. I'm sure others have had otherwise given JJ's reputation. But I feel it's only fair to report what I experienced.

Todd was very neat and incredibly polite and JJ was a pleasure to work with over the phone and via email. Compared to other contractors I have dealt with JJ and his crew were incredibly professional and thoughtful. The pricing was also incredibly reasonable. It was clear that they cared about their work and cared about doing a good job and doing right by the homeowner. The install of the replacement window was also done more carefully and cleanly than a different window in the same room that had been replaced the year before by a different contractor. There was an issue with the screen that came with the window, and JJ promptly fixed it and returned it to us himself.
I would highly recommend JJ and his crew for any project, and I plan on using them again in the future based on his knowledge, the quality of the work, and his professionalism.

We didn't go ahead with the work, but we certainly would contact this company again when and if we did. Mr. Supple was very polite, attentive and responsive.

I live in a lovely 120 year old farmhouse with a stone foundation. The basement was in need of multiple repairs. J.J. bid on the project and came in at what I thought was a fair price. I gave him the job based upon his obvious experience , know-how and responsiveness. He assessed the varied issues and made excellent suggestions as to how the work might best go forward with budget, our family's convenience, and the most attractive outcome in mind. He ended up demolishing some old wooden walls and built-in's as well as a defunct brick chimney to open up the space. He removed all of the debris, then restored and sealed the stone foundations walls and poured a new concrete floor. He rebuilt the stairwell and repaired the wooden steps, relocated an electrical wire and switch and installed the new sump pump. The space now looks clean, open, bright and functional. J.J. was good at communicating the smallest change in schedule and I always felt our job was a priority. Because of his competence, reliability and overall professionalism, it was a pleasure to work with J.J. and I would not hesitate to recommend him to others.

I initially contacted JJ Supple Construction Contracting Inc. because of their excellent ratings on Angie's List. My phone call was returned immediately, and an estimate appointment was set up. JJ arrived very promptly and assessed our situation - a bulge and a crack in a wall above our fireplace. He was very honest in telling me that he could not give an exact estimate until he opened up the wall. He came up with several plans of and quot;if - thenand quot;, and even gave me the name of his structural engineer, should we need to go that route. We agreed on a ballpark estimate, depending on what was discovered. I hired JJ for several reasons, one of which was his obvious interest and curiosity. He wanted to know why the wall had bulged and cracked. JJ is a problem-solver, with tremendous skill. He and his crew found the main reason for our problem, and fixed it. They respected my home, and were always on time. Throughout the process JJ stayed in constant contact with me. He even called after the project was complete to make sure I was satisfied. That sort of follow-up is rare. I would highly recommend JJ Supple Construction Contracting Inc., and look forward to working with them again.

Our experience working with JJ at Supple construction was excellent. We had a number of things that needed attention around our home. We had an ongoing roof leak issue that previous repairs had not resolved. We also had a large cupola and a good deal of house trim that had weathered and rotted that needed to be replaced. We hired JJ to handle all issues. This was our first time working with JJ and I'm happy to say that he was knowledgeable, professional, punctual, and easy to get in touch with. Qualities that you unfortunately don't see with all contractors.
The initial meeting with JJ was to review the problem and past unsuccessful attempts at fixing the roof leak. During this meeting JJ was very thorough and we mapped out a plan of action. It became obvious that JJ had very high standards for how the work was completed. Accordingly, I was very comfortable with the roofing team that JJ subcontracted (Robert L Green Roofing). The rest of the general construction around the home was done by JJ's crew.
JJ was very willing to take the time to thoroughly answer all of my questions relating to why things were done a certain way or why particular materials were used, etc. The crews were very respectful of our home and property. Email and phone conversations were always timely. All in all the work was completed over a period of about eight days. They did exactly what they said they would do for the agreed upon price. The only additional items were ones that were out of scope from the original plan.
Overall our experience was excellent. I would highly recommend JJ and Supple Construction.

"Very professional and intelligent customer. understood exactly what I proposed which was somewhat complicated and involved,asked several questions so he understood every aspect of the proposition. I really respect that. sometimes one can perceive taking the high road as overkill or an unnecessary expense. The customer understood exactly how and what I proposed would work in his situation and he went the distance. Problem solved! Great guy to work for. One professional working for another. It doesn't get any better!! Super guy..hope you call us again."

I called twice (maybe three times) - never received a call back. I did once talk to someone (don't remember the name). I explained to him what was needed. He asked that the plans be sent to him via email (which was done by the engineer). He told me that he would be in the area on a certain day and he would call me to arrange a time once he reviewed the plans. However, he NEVER called me back to arrange a time. I wish that he would have told me he wasn't interested in the job the first time we talked so that I didn't waste my (and his) time. He had been highly recommended to me so I was a little disappointed that he never contacted me.

Overall, terrible! He can't keep his promises.
Response from Supple Construction Contracting Inc.
"When I spoke to You on Tuesday you specifically instructed me NOT to call "you" regarding your roof issue. You instructed me to contact your mother, Valerie. Bob spoke to her on Wednesday afternoon (within 24 hrs) and offed to stop by on Thursday, if he could squeeze it in, otherwise he told her that he would reach out to her early next week to schedule a site visit. Please contact Valerie to confirm this conversation occurred. I can fully understand your disappointment, if in fact, your accusation was factual. But once you speak to your Mom, Valerie you will learn that we made good on our word, to contact her within 24hrs. After you confirm Bob's conversation with Valerie, it would be great to read that you were misinformed. If not, that's ok too. Best of luck with your roof repair. Respectfully, JJ Supple, Principle. Supple Construction, Inc."

J.J. and his guys are great. They are friendly and helpful and really educated us on what our options were with regards to the issues were that we were facing. Not sure our house would even be standing at the moment without them.
Response from Supple Construction Contracting Inc.
"Member, Thanks for your kind words of praise! The men really enjoyed the project as well as demonstrating their professionalism to both of you. I heard that all the coffee you provided helped immensely on those cold mornings! They greatly appreciated your hospitality, and I enjoyed the challenges. I look forward the underpinning of the foundation. Let's hope your neighbor gets his variance!! Thanks again. JJ"

JJ did a very good review and estimate for me. His was one of two estimates I received. We picked JJ for these reasons. 1) His estimate was less than the other, and 2) he had a great deal of confidence that his method for removing and replacing the old columns would not cause my tile floors to crack on the main floor and he in fact guaranteed that if they did, he would replace the cracked tiles at no cost. 3) he had regular employees that work for him, and that he would vouch for. 4)His references checked out 5) he had good Angie's List reviews.
The job was done when he said it would be, and there were no delays. JJ did have to contend with the strange depth of each lally column which required extra excavation and extra concrete, so we did pay about $200 more than the original estimate.
All in all we are very happy and would not hesitate to recommend JJ Supple.

"Hi Member, Many thanks for the great feedback. I am happy that all worked out, with No cracked tiles. I just wanted to drop a thank you note to you as well, and check to see if everything is still Ok with the workmanship. Let me know, please. Hard to believe it's been 6 months. JJ"

We would definitely recommend Supple Construction Contracting Inc. Company. Mr. J.J Supple, the owner came in with the lowest bid. He came in on time. He came in on budget. He was a pleasure to work with. His crew was very clean. He did a really good job for us. I would use his services in the future. We would use them again in a heart beat. If he doesn't get so popular then we might get him to work for us again.
