Joe Battaglia’s crew was on time, did an outstanding job and made sure that they did a complete cleanup as was included in the project. This was the second project that Joe did for us and should the need arise I will not hesitate to call him again.

I had a great experience and was glad I found them for my latest project at my building in Southeast Queens. Joe’s high level of communication, interest and enthusiasm for what I needed done was a huge difference from other contractors. The job involved some demolition, masonry, and ductwork. We agreed on what needed to be done, Joe gave me a fair price, his crew did exactly what we agreed on, and he checked in with me frequently to make sure that was satisfied with the work. I was very pleased. They will be my go-to contractors for future work on the building.

Joe responded quickly to my call, provided a detailed estimate and an honest appraisal of what needed to be done. His crew was prompt, courteous and efficient. Payment terms spelled out clearly, and no surprises. I would highly recommend Joe at JB general contacting

JB General Contracting is amazing! Joe is a gentleman and advises you what you need and nothing more. Joe makes suggestions upon his experience and knowledge of the Job. His team of construction workers are very knowledgeable and professional, they speak very nice to you, they clean up after themselves, they measure and keep checking over their work, and make sure everything is right to the customers satisfaction. My backyard was very uneven and a lot of high and low elevations. JB’s team straightened everything out and is perfect now. I’m a neighborhood person and I highly recommend this company! Thank you JB!

The job was beautifully done. In one day, old sidewalk removed and new sidewalk installed. Let this count as two reviews: my neighbor also commented on the workmanship as efficient and clean. A second project is in the planning stage.

Way too much efflorescence in the concrete that will take years to remove; very disappointed aesthetically; ponding in at least two places; color doesn't match because there were two trucks/two pours. Floating is rough and could have been smoother and more even. I thought we hired J&B, but they subcontracted to another company without disclosing that upfront. Very dissatisfied; do not recommend this contractor.

Joe and JB did our driveway in 2013. I posted an A review here on Angie's List very shortly after the job was done. Within a few months, the cement started to crumble. They sent out a team to redo one section, but within a short time, other sections started to crumble. They tried to blame me, saying I had used road salt on the driveway when I hadn't. After that, they refused to answer my calls or respond to emails. They do substandard work, with inconsistent pours. We paid $11,000, and within a year and a half, our driveway looked almost as bad as before the job was done. I have been unable to rescind that review, but when a relative told me today that they'd seen the review, they knew from the details that it was my job, and that we have been totally dissatisfied with this contractor. Do not hire this company.

Dear member, I’m sorry to hear about your experience And are now 8+ Years later your efforts in trying to Defame our reputable company but what you forgot to add in to your review is all of the six times I personally came out to inspect the issues and then sent my crew back multiple times to repair the damages you personally caused by using Rock Salt to melt your snow when we Specifically asked of you NOT to use rock salt for the first 24 months of installing the new lovely concrete job which by the way you posted for us an A+ review after completion of the job. Anyhow you could have simply called or emailed me personally and as I’ve done already I would of been happy to come out again to reinspect the scope of work albeit 8+ years later of the initial damages caused by you personally and we would have gladly performed a repair at no additional charge. I look forward to speaking to you soon and assist you in this matter amicably. Best regards, Joe Battaglia.

Was looking to have our front porch stairs redone and was also looking to have the stairway redone that leads to the basement. Joe and his team were very professional and everything was completed in a day and also the work and attention to detail is over professional.
