I was a little worried the windows wouldn't fit but they did fit.
Jon answered all of our questions promptly and in a professional manner.
Jon was very flexible in setting up the installation date. We went on vacation, then we were worried it would be too cold, or it would rain. We managed to agree on a good install date that worked for all of us.
Jon's crew arrived between the stated start time (8:00 - 8:30am) and promptly began working. The crew worked well together and stayed focused on the job. No arguing, no wasting time. They ripped out the old windows and installed the new windows in one day. And they installed the outside trim. They ran into a few problems trying to get the windows out. But they were able to easily solve the problems due to their skill and experience.
Jon worked calmly and meticulously to install the interior trim over the three day project.
Jon squirted in expanding foam around the window frames to prevent cold air from coming into our home during the winter months. Other contractors wanted to put in fiberglass. Jon convinced us the foam would prevent cold air from coming in better than the fiberglass.
The finished windows look great.
While the temperatures are above normal for this time of year our condo seems to be warmer due to the energy efficient windows and good insulation around the frames.
We'd hire Jon again for future projects.
Jonathan himself participated in the demolition by cutting the old garage free of the main house. He leveled a section of subfloor in the main house by cutting the joists free of the main support beams and re-fastening everything (the floor was very off kilter). He installed windows and doors, laid the tile in the laundry, bath and mudroom, built decks and steps for the garage and exterior entries, and installed all of the finish carpentry (trim, molding, etc).
All of the work was first rate. Jonathan is a talented carpenter, the tile floors are flawless, and the new structure blends perfectly with the main house. Husband and wife home owners survived as well. To be fair, the project ran over in time and cost but those were due primarily to the surprises we found when opening up the walls and roof of this 1870's house.
The job took longer than expected due to master carpenter injuring his hand at another worksite. We were quoted 7 days of labor for 2 carpenters but their days consisted on arrival at 9-10 am, an hour for lunch, and then departure at 3 pm. The second carpenter ended up doing most of the work because ff master's hand injury (I'd hire him again in an instant). Even though the job ended up taking 3 weeks, they did meticulous work and the deck looks great and in much better shape.
"For estimating purposes, I use an 8 hr day to establish the total hours that the job will take. In reality, the job took longer than the estimated days because my carpenters worked only 6 hr days. Also, there were unforseen structural issues that had to be corrected which we did for no additional labor cost. The homeowners were very understanding of these issues and we enjoyed working for them very much."
