He replaced the siding on an entire side of my house that had rot damage. He was very straight forward with me and explained everything that was going on. He also recommend more work for the future, but didn't pressure me, which I really appreciated. His original estimate was lower than it actually cost because the materials were much more expensive than anticipated. But because he quoted me a lower price, he offered to do a few smaller repairs to compensate. And as a first time home buyer, this kind of thing was a big deal. I have every intention of having him do the other recommended repairs and I would highly recommend!

A+ It couldn't have gone better. Also James was completely up front with me about any additional costs that might come up so I was aware in advance. James runs an honest and reliable company and anyone would benefit from their services. They do great work! I will recommend them to anyone who needs a contractor.

Best in class. James Taylor Home Improvement is a terrific small business run by a consummate professional. James' work is superb, and the people who work with him are top-notch. James has the technical know-how, skill of an artisan, and hires only the best workers. He is trustworthy about the jobs he says he will do, and will help with the things you didn't know needed attention.
James and his team sanded the deck with greater care as to restore a weathered deck to almost new conditon. He patiently tried three separate paints on scrap cedar so as to get the right color for our large project. The fabrication and installation of flashing caps demonstrated his versatility, yet he will tell you exactly what jobs he won't do - he is honest.
His personableness and professionalism kept our comfort level high throughout the entire project. James receives our highest recommendation, and he will be our go-to contractor in the future.

James Taylor's process is very high quality and professional. He considered every detail up front and gave me an accurate assessment of what the time and materials would be. He does NOT cut corners, and is careful to explain any changes to the estimate as new issues come up. He pays close attention to detail and monitors anything he has a crew working on to make sure it is done right. The house looks fantastic and I feel confident it will last for many many years. I recommend him highly. I love the results!

The day I called James to ask for a quote he asked if he could come over and talk to me about the job in person. We walked through the house and I gave him a laundry list of items I wanted done. He put together a bid for me and we started work. He worked pretty well around my schedule, accommodating a delay in installation of flooring. Throughout the work, changes to the work plan were required, based on unforeseen problems. He discussed with me the issues and solutions as well as the impact of those changes as soon as they arose. He kept in close communication with me throughout the duration of the job, and happily gave me updates whenever I asked him. In general he completed the work on time and to budget, and accommodated numerous small problems and changes as they came up. He was pleasant to work with and I would work with him again. I know he has other skills, such as deck building, etc. I would recommend him to anyone who needs a good general handyman with some electrical and plumbing skills. He is smart and detail oriented -- creative in his solutions.
