John and his son, Brian, did an excellent job of replacing our tub and old shower with a beautiful tiled walk-in shower with glass doors. John has completed other projects in the past for us and has never disappointed. Excellent craftmanship, communication skills, and a desire to accommodate make working with John a pleasure.

John and his team did an excellent job with the gut renovation of our large tiled shower. He took the time to diagnose what had caused the cracking and shifting in our original concrete pan to make sure the rebuild would not have the same issues down the road. Tiling, grouting, trim, and moulding installation was exacting and looked great. While John was doing the shower we also asked if he could do several other completely unrelated jobs (re-build old, unsafe basement stairs, wire a socket and switch for a new light fixture, patch ceiling drywall) and he did a great job with those as well. Communication was very easy throughout the process - John always kept us aware of any issues and consulted with us immediately on decisions. We will be working with John and his team again.

We hired John Elliott General Contractor to do a wide range of work. Room remodeling in which a suspended tile ceiling with insulation was replaced with a solid sheet rock ceiling and new insulation. An existing sun deck was completely replaced and well enforced. The workmanship and materials used were first class. The appearance of the new deck is very pleasing. Remodeling in house stairs, including installing a new light. Installing an addition to a concrete walkway in the front yard. All the work was done with exceptional quality. The crew was always on time and all jobs were done timely. Clean up was done daily. They have demonstrated the flexibility to adjust to any existing conditions on site. I would highly recommend John Elliott general contractor for any in house or around the house work. He is professional with exceptional honesty. We have used their services in the past and we will be hiring them in the future for additional work.
Description of Work: Remodel Sun deck room. Remove and replace sun deck. Remove and replace fencing around trash cans. Widen concrete path. Replace creaky stairs and carpeting. Light installation.

John did a great job! This is my 2nd time using his services and will continue to do so. Even though he was busy with other jobs he made the time to come and see what I needed done. I appreciate that he always calls you back promptly even though he's busy and shows up when he says he will. He replaced a downspout on the gutter pipe, replaced old toilet seat, sealed up cracks in my stucco on my front porch, checked my honeycomb blind to see if he could fix it, removed my air conditioner from the window and carried to my closet.

It went great! The job was done to perfection by John and Brian. When John came to my home to assess what needed to be done for the leak in my dining room, I asked him if he could also take a look at my ceiling fan in the kitchen which was not working properly. He fixed it that day! I especially appreciated not only the quality of the work but John always communicated what he was doing and why. He always called when he said he would and when he would be a little late. I would give more stars if I could honestly.

I have used John for years now, everything from a large kitchen remodel, installing new hardwoods, to smaller jobs like this one. He (and his son Bryan) always do a great job. I have come to particularly enjoy his honest input. He will make suggestions that produce a better outcome for me, even if it will end up making him less money.

My wife and I unequivocally recommend John and his crew. We felt completely comfortable with them in our home and were very pleased with the work they completed which involved electrical, plumbing, carpentry and tile installation skills. The cost was reasonable and John handled the interface with a countertop outlet and a tile outlet seamlessly. John was very conscientious about returning calls promptly and routinely gave unsolicited status updates. John was easy to work with and we feel lucky to have found him.

I found John and his company roughly 4 years ago to do a bathroom remodel. The reviews at the time I hired him were excellent and the price he quoted was the most competitive. His workmanship, customer service, and value for money exceeded all of my expectations. John and his son Brian have a true passion for their work and an excellent attention to detail. In the last 4 years I have used John's company for a complete basement remodel, electric panel upgrade, stucco repairs, plumbing repairs, another bathroom remodel, painting, and many other "odd jobs". John has quickly become my "go-to-guy" and in every circumstance I am left entirely pleased with his work. I HIGHLY recommend anyone who is looking for either small home repairs to complete room remodeling to work with John and his company.

John and his son Brian completed a full kitchen remodel at our house. It was a fairly big project including removing a wall, closing up a window, flooring, cabinets, appliance install etc. They were both able to do all the work themselves, not needing to hire subcontractors as was the case with many of the other contractors we spoke to. The work itself is of great quality, the job took a little longer than expected but they both made sure it was done to perfection. We would hire them again for future projects.

John and his son did a great job on my complete kitchen remodel. My mid ‘80s kitchen now looks awesome. Lots of electrical work was needed and they added a ton of lighting. Made the process very easy and offered guidance when asked.

John was extremely prompt in getting back to me from my initial inquiry and was super responsive. He is the most responsive contractor that I have ever dealt with, so I was very impressed with his communication. He offered me a great price on the work that needed to be done, and he was able to complete the work in a very timely manner. I was super impressed and any future work that I need done, I will be reaching out to him first. I highly recommend John Elliot.

Mr. Elliott got the job done quickly and well. Part of the job, the unspoken part, was to help me overcome the PTSD I've experienced with contractors. But I can't recommend him, because then you'll hire him and he won't be available for me, and I have a lot more work to be done. So, keep looking. (Sorry, John.)
