We hired DJ's as a result of a recommendation as well as them interviewing better than all the others for our project. Their knowledge of what was required, how they interpreted the architects drawings, working with our town for permits, inspections, and additional recommendations ended up with an incredibly beautiful project. All who see DJ's work in our kitchen comment that is the best remodel project they have ever seen. WE AGREE! Jerry and Vita were very responsive, sensitive and patient with us while we went through the process. They have a winning formula. They may not come in as the cheapest. But I can tell you that their work was TOP NOTCH and we will have them do all of our work moving forward.

They are the best! They are going to do more work for me. Always on time! We are in the middle of work now.
They were very clean, very neat, on time and whatever they quoted originally, they stuck by it, whatever the prices were.
They were very honest and above board.

I had wanted to do a complete kitchen renovation for quite some time but always backed down because I really had no idea how to get started, what I wanted or how to coordinate the project......until I was fortunate enough to meet Jerry and Vita - the principals of DJ's Home Improvement!! I have finally found my forever contractor partners!! Vita listened to my vague ideas and designed a beautiful new kitchen for me - everything I wanted and MORE!! She is an expert at understanding her client's vision and even more proficient at bringing it all to life! I would have never been able to create this kitchen without her guidance and her innate ability to envision the finished project! Vita just has so much experience with selecting appropriate products and making valuable suggestions! Jerry is totally hands-on with the construction crew and pays attention to every single detail no matter how small! The crew is absolutely amazing - they are timely, very respectful and so very helpful - they actually ran my home for me when I needed to be away.... I was truly sorry to see them depart when the project was complete as I considered them family by the end of the process! Both Jerry and Vita are the VERY best at what they do!! They CARE about everything! Vita was even kind enough to shop with me to pick out furniture for my new kitchen....NEVER before has anyone gone out of their way like that for me! I would have done this project a long time ago if I had only known just how easy it would be - having the ultimate professionals figuring everything out, planning each and every step, never taking a short-cut and always responding within minutes to any of my questions made the whole process totally stress-free with nothing whatsoever to worry about! I am excited to begin planning other projects in my home with Jerry and Vita who I now consider to be my friends FIRST....and my go-to professionals for everything else!!

We had put off this project for so very many years .We knew that it would be costly and also we never knew who would be honest and do a good job. This remodel was the primary reason I joined Angie List. In the middle of a cold snowy winter we began the demolition. Every morning Dennis and Dave would arrive promptly at 8:15 am.These highly skilled craftsmen would work ALL day long.Jerry... the company owner would always show up and was just a phone call away..MY texts and questions were ALWAYS answered promptly. Jerry and his wife Vita are the brains and beauty behind this company, They are true professionals and are proud of the work they do. You are given a binder of before and after photos... very helpful to be able to visualize what will happen. A timeline schedule along with a payment due section. They really do think of everything. Most important to me was also the three dogs and seven rescue kittens we have in our home.They respected our craziness and there was never an issue.A total plus for me. The work was done perfectly and ON TIME. I am amazed at how beautiful it looks. Will be using them for many more jobs... If you are searching for a quality job done by caring, honest, and reputable crew this is the contractor for you.No surprises just perfection.

DJ's is a top notch outfit. They make you feel like you're on HGTV from beginning to end. The process is fairly lengthy, but that's to be expected when you're dealing with someone who is in demand and wants to give you the time and attention your project deserves. From first contact to completion was around 9 months. Of which the first 2 months was waiting for the first available appointment, the last 6 weeks for the renovation, and the time in between for design and of course waiting for materials (custom cabinets take awhile). I'm sure the timeline can vary based on the time of year and the scope of work, but generally contractors that are not busy or have too many jobs at once, are cutting corners somewhere and you don't want them in your home for something important.
I actually contacted DJs several years ago for a finished basement quote, but my timeline was too tight and they had to pass. That actually impressed me that they would rather turn down a job than try to squeeze it in. Hence why they were my first call when we were ready to renovate our kitchen/dining space.
Jerry and Vita first met with us to discuss what we were looking for. They listened, jotted down notes throughout the meeting, took measurements and returned a few weeks later with several digital design options. We were able to then give additional feedback to further fine tune the design we liked and a few weeks after that we had a finished design. The design portion of a kitchen renovation is not easy, and paying a few hundred dollars up front for the level of detail that Vita and Jerry provide is well worth the cost and one of the reasons we went with a design/build team. Our design was a challenge because we were looking beyond the scope of our existing kitchen and wanted to remove some walls to change the space. We also had some existing pieces we wanted to have integrated into the finished product. The design they came up with fit all our needs and looked great.
DJ's most likely will not be the least expensive quote you receive, but when considering value for your money, they can't be beat. They only use the finest materials and they will not cut corners. If they open your walls and something behind there doesn't look right, they will fix it. The amount of work that goes on within the walls, ceiling and floor is amazing. Every day I would ask questions and learned a ton about why things were being done a certain way and what it would mean if they skipped that step. My home is from the 1930s so as you can probably imagine, there was a good amount of work that happened behind the scenes of the finished product and yet we still stayed on budget and within the timeframe.
DJ's timing is outstanding. At the start of the job you are presented with a binder that has all the materials, contact information, drawings and a schedule and timeline of what to expect each day. There was ZERO downtime. Monday-Friday for 6 weeks they were there every day. No waiting for coutertops, no waiting for cabinets....everything arrived properly spaced out and the job came together like a puzzle.
The team that worked in our home each day was great and took exceptional pride in their work. They went above and beyond to make sure it was perfect, not just satisfactory. It was bittersweet to say goodbye to them on their last day of work.
The finished product is fantastic. Our home is completely transformed. Jerry and Vita are not just our contractors, but I would now consider them friends. They helped make the renovation as stress free as possible, which is difficult with no kitchen and a toddler!

The entire team was great to work with. Denis and Joel are very talented workers; very detail oriented. Their work was exceptional. I really was pleased with the job they did and would highly recommend their services. They even painted a few walls and caulked my bath tub (which was not in the estimate) and did not charge extra. Expect to pay top dollar but you will not regret it for they are really the best overall contractors I have ever had the pleasure to work with. Jerry and Vita are truly genuine people. They were able to fit me into their schedule due to my circumstances. My folks also used them for installation of backsplash and oven hood in the kitchen. They were very pleased; they did an exceptional job.
I consider myself to be a picky person; hard to please. Just goes to show how good this outfit is. Thanks again!

From the consultation to the finished product, Jerry and his team were extremely professional, punctual and respectable. The quality of work was OUTSTANDING. Dave and Felipe were always on time and they made sure the quality of the work was perfect. When a company has happy employees it is a company to be proud of. I've already recommended the company and I will continue to do so. I will call DJ's Home Improvement again! Thank you!!!

This company delivers on all it promises. We had several meetings before work started, a bit of a wait until it started and then an efficient execution of all the stages of the work finishing in about 5 weeks. Jerry and Vita communicate often and clearly, Jerry was at the house many days doing some of the work and supervising where needed. The workmen are very good at what they do and also very pleasant, kind, punctual and detail-oriented. The end result is a beautiful, user-friendly kitchen.

The provider was fantastic. Kept in touch all the way and even did a few things that were not on the estimate. Started on time and finished the same. The contractor actually doing the work was neat and courteous. Room came out great, will use again for next bathroom.
