"JM did a fantastic job. About 13 years ago, while living at our previous residence: JM remodeled and modernized our full Kitchen, two full bathrooms and, after many tries by other contractors, he was able to stop a leak from our roof at no charge. About 10 years ago, at our current residence , JM remodeled and modernized our full kitchen and did a unique job of updating 4 large sliding closet doors. He removed the cheap inserts, and replaced them with 1/4” high quality plywood into the frames. He then, using wood molding, he made the face of the doors look like real wood doors. Doors were stained and look like expensive oak doors! JM comes up with excellent suggestions, alternatives, and expense saving ideas. We plan on relying on his expertise when we’re ready to upgrade our Patio. All the best to JM Group!"

EXPERIENCE: We are the #1 installer of the exclusive PulTrex sunroom in North America. We also have a wealth of experience in the sunroom industry with over 30 years of design and installation expertise, within our management team. We specialize in functionality, open space and follow all proven real estate trends to maximize the value of your home. Call us at 908 228 9300 and let us help you design something special. CERTIFICATIONS: IECC compliant, AAMA, Energy star and NFRC certified for energy efficiency, and DP 50 coastal for over 150 mph winds. SERVICE REPAIRS: Due to our vast experience in the sunroom industry, we also specialize in repairing all other sunrooms and conservatories made by companies either in or out of business. If you have a problem with your existing sunroom, we can most likely help and resolve it for you. We also work with all insurance companies to help you get your sunroom fixed quickly when damaged by weather or unforeseen events.

"This home is both our 2nd and 4th renovation with NJSA, in 2016 and 2021. In the 2016 renovation, we removed the interior walls in the living spaces (incl. finishing the former garage) to open up the home, and replaced most windows and exterior walls with glass walls as integrated sunrooms. We also built a second story with beautiful contemporary lines and volumes, more integrated sunrooms, two exceptional gable windows and a skylight. All these spaces flow around a gorgeous circular staircase, which is so efficient with space despite being 6ft wide. Every visitor told us how luminous and spacious, great and unique the home already was thanks to these integrated sunrooms. The 2021 renovation consisted of a 58 sq ft addition behind the dining room and cutting the roof of the existing kitchen bump out to achieve one 20x5 conservatory: words cannot describe how such a small renovation in size resulted in such a spectacular transformation of the home! Design-wise, as for many homes, our connection to the backyard was minimal and all living spaces were turned to the street. Now French doors in the dining and kitchen areas open to the backyard, and it is remarkable how the glass wall overlooking our very narrow English garden still achieves these picture perfect vistas and the feeling of living outside from anywhere in the whole living space. The conservatory is on the North side of the home and turned our darkest and coldest side into the brightest and most comfortable one. From sunrise through the French door then trapezoid window, to light pouring in all day long through the tempered glass roof, to glorious sunsets and games of shadow, to stargazing in the magical long clear nights of summerâ ¦ the light and sky views from every space feel magical. We also experienced awe inspiring lightning storms, the soothing sound of rain, and even through tropical storm Ida with the most whipping rain ever, we had zero leaks or even humidity. This home is aptly named Serenity@46, hosting turnkey temporary housing and short term rentals, and all reviews in the past years already described this home as having the most natural light, being the most specialâ ¦ our guests ever stayed in, and yet so much light pours in through the conservatory that the whole home seems turned towards it now. NJSAâ s process is so remarkable too! About 2 weeks before the delivery date of the custom built room, they pour the foundation, next they cut/clear the roof and siding as needed, then puzzle the modular pieces together and connect them into the existing home, and only after all is complete do they seal the interior in plastic sheeting and remove the former exterior wall: our home was never open to the elements or left unprotected. We also never lost the use of the house and all was left clean every day. No traditional framing can be done in so little time and without disturbance. Building inspections are easy too, since this system is pre-built and as depicted on approved plans, but also because inspectors know and trust NJSA. The NJSA teamwork is exceptional: it is obvious they are highly skilled and have been working together for many years. Ryann is also excellent in keeping us apprised regularly. This staff is very efficient and stays on the job, without delays or subcontracting as with most traditional construction. We had such high hopes for this conservatory - and NJSA went above and beyond in their work ethics and service to ensure we were perfectly happy - yet our daily experience is so amazing it surpasses all expectations. We hope you too can install the most wonderful conservatory, but even the smallest addition or replacing (part of) a roof and exterior wall facing the simplest view can completely transform your home! Enjoy the before/after pictures to help envision how your current home could be transformed as well!"

Greenhouses questions, answered by experts

In most cases, wait three to five days to repot or relocate a plant from a greenhouse or nursery. That way, your plant has time to recover from any shock during the move and adapt to the conditions in and around your home. Some hearty plants may not need as long, and delicate plants might need several weeks. You should ask the professional at your nursery for a recommended timeline. Consider asking about an initial watering schedule to help stimulate root growth and promote a healthy plant.

Adding burnt charcoal to your garden beds and plant pots can yield several benefits, but there are risks involved, too. Charcoal, particularly biochar, can enhance soil structure, improve water drainage, and increase nutrient retention. When activated, charcoal provides key nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. However, burnt charcoal, especially from briquettes, can inadvertently alter soil's pH levels and become hazardous to plants. Overall, there are better and less risky soil amendments available, such as vermiculite, perlite, or wood chips.

The quickest way you can protect plants and trees from frost is to cover them with garden blankets or frost cloths. Also, bringing potted plants or trees indoors is much simpler than trying to cover and protect them outdoors. Remember to anchor blankets with something such as sandbags, fabric pins, or rocks if the forecast calls for strong winds to keep them from blowing away and exposing your trees and plants.

Minor fixes like patching leaks or repainting are DIY-friendly, but structural repairs require professional expertise.

Eco-friendly materials include sustainably-sourced woods, recycled metals, low-VOC paints, and non-toxic sealants, which reduce environmental impact. Using these in repairs promotes sustainability and can improve indoor air quality and overall building health.
