This contractor made an appointment to give an estimate and did not show or or call. Never heard from him again. Not trustworthy.
Response from AJ Home Improvements

"Hi [Member Name Removed] i am sorry but you must have me confused with another company , cause i don't know who you are and have never heard from you to make an appointment for an estimate so i would greatly appreciate you removing this review cause my company always keeps appointments , and if some reason i can not make the appointment i call the customer and change the appointment"

We were very pleased with the contractors work- he explained the job from beginning to end and did exactly what we agreed upon. He stuck to his word on the price and dealt with whatever was needed to be done. I would high recommend him, and use him again in the future.

We have definitely found our go-to guy for any jobs that we need done around the house. Jim is courteous, punctual, and honest. He always clearly explained the pros and cons of jobs we were trying to do, and gave very reasonable prices. He is crafty and creative, and did not shy away from some unusual work requests like building a custom plywood door for an outdoor basement entrance, finding a way to attach an oversized mailbox, and sealing off our decks with wire netting to keep the critters out. It's piece of mind to know that we have someone dependable to call upon for all those unique jobs that need to get done.

While it took a bit longer than expected to get completed the work was done in a professional fashion.

Got an e-mail from him stating not available until 10/18 for an estimate - I e-mailed back we could meet on Friday, 10/20. He agreed and set up a meeting for that day between 6 and 7pm. He never showed up and never contacted me about a change. Not happy.
Response from AJ Home Improvements

"hi ken i did show up ,i spent over an our and half in traffic to get there in your emails u never mentioned that you were in a gated community and needed a code to get threw the gate , i tried to contact you while sitting at gate for 30 min , and got know response from you , why would i go threw the trouble of emailing and setting up appointment , while on vacation and not show up? i always show up up for appointments , and if am going to be late contact the customer if you would like to try again and see up another time , i would be fine with that"

Jimmy was always punctual and courteous. His work on installing the cement board and sheet rock was mediocre at best. There was a large space around the tub. The window was all uneven. The cement board was actually wavy. He only shimmed it to straighten it upon request. Some nail spots were not spackled-- again done only on request. The walls and the floor were not exactly level. There was a large space where the wall met the ceiling in one corner. He left it for the tile guy to fix. God is in the details. He did OKAY, just not great. My question would be if it were his own home, would he do the job he did? I doubt it. Now, the wall studs and the floor may not have been perfectly level to start, but .... a carpenter who is very good and precise should be able to make adjustments-- and want to-- to get it just right. That just wasn't our experience with Jimmy.
Response from AJ Home Improvements

"HI [Member Name Removed] i am sorry u feel the way you do about the job there was a half inch space around tub cause there is a lip that goes around tup that is supposed to be flush to the wall studs and the tub wasn't , ( i did not install the tub), so if i had put the cement board all the way to tub the cement board would not be flush to wall studs and the tile when installed would not be flush to cement board when installed with would lead to the tiles popping off wall as time went on . that half inch space should have been filled in with thin set when tile was installed so tile would be flush to wall As of the window being wavy and nails holes not being spackled that you pointed out , the job was not complete at that time , i was well aware of those issues before you pointed them out and and it was going to be taken care of before job was complete without you pointing them out to me The space between the ceiling and wall was not an issue at time of job , cause your exact words to me at that time was you had talked to tile guy and he said it would not be an issue , other wise i would ave taken care of it , at time of estimate again your exact words to me were you know it was old house and nothing was level and straight and understood it was not going to be perfect , if you wanted to reframe the wall and ceiling you and your partner should have communicated to each other a little more before estimate and and decided on exactly what you wanted done , or brought it to my attention and i would have adjusted the cost of job and gave you new estimate , not waited to job was complete and paid in full and then without contacting me , post a bad review When job was complete there was no issues , i did everything that you asked, that was in estimate and paid me to do , you paid me in full shook my hand and said everything looked great( your exact words ) if there where any issues or you where not happy with job , it was never brought to my attention , and again paid me in full and said everything looked great"

Since I met Jim in 2010, he has done numerous jobs for me - both big and small. He is a true craftsman. I have never had any complaints about any of the work he has done. He is also very pleasant and mannerly. I leave my house to him for the day without any hesitations. My kitten fell in love with him.

Job went very well. Jim was on time worked efficiently and was open to the "usual extras" that come up on a job. Definitely would recommend and use AJ Home Improvements again. Jim was personable and open to any questions that I had.

Jim was great.  Professional, courteous, punctual, hard working.  When we were getting no shows for appraisal appointments and responses like "I don't do doors" or "I'm too busy", Jim came by for an appraisal on a Sunday afternoon, started the work just a few days later and fit us into his schedule.  We will use him again and have already recommended him to friends!

As detailed in the work performed, I had a variety repairs that needed to be addressed around the house.  Jim provided very reasonable prices, was great with communication and highly responsive.  He was also very flexible as additional items arose that needed to be addressed.  I required someone who I could rely on when these types of issues arise and I'm very happy with the results in every respect.  I'd highly recommend him and anticipate using him in the future as needed.
