Cumming Construction LLC

The initial project with the bedroom started well, so we decided to add the living room project on. We had paid for high quality windows ($375/piece), but he installed bottom of the barrel windows. We didn't like that and so we requested that they be changed. He refused. We found out that everything that we had paid for was documented as something totally different on his paperwork. He had forged information through the township on the permits. The paper work that needed to be filed was forged. The price was over $10,000 lower and my name was forged on the paperwork. That is tax evasion. He has not been responsive. We have tried for 3 days to get a hold of him. We paid $2800 for electrical work and the electrician hasn't been paid by him and so the electrician is trying to get ahold of him for payment. His workers are very nice, but him, not so much.

Integrity?  Nice guy, BUT, it's now been 4 weeks since Jon cashed my final payment check for a full bathroom remodel, and 2 weeks since his plumber agreed something is wrong. I still do not have, nor have I ever had, a correctly functioning shower/tub. His original installation  had to be changed when I noticed the shower head, faucets, and spout were not even close to being aligned  This he did correct before the tile was installed. Now, however, I can not fill the tub with hot water unless it is filled via the shower head. He did try the trouble shooting tips that came with the installation instructions - but nothing worked.
That leaves a bad valve or faulty installation as possible culprits.  The valve used was not the valve that came with the fixtures I chose, though he said it was "the same model".  On examination, the method of installation was not any of the 3 recommended in the manufacturer instructions.  This can clearly be seen by removing the easy access panel.  He has failed to reply to any of my phone calls or emails about this continuing situation.  I am now forced to correct this problem myself by hiring a plumbing contractor and then seeking restitution and compensation.

Jon did an excellent job from start to finish.  Upon coming out to give an estimate, Jon gave his honest opinion, discussed various options for doing the work, and was happy to do the work the way we wanted without trying to sell us more than we  needed.  The price Jon quoted was what we paid and was very reasonable (and less than other quotes we received - Note: the approximate cost is for the labor and not materials). When he came out to do the work, Jon was professional and courteous. We will definitely hire Cumming Construction again and, in fact, already have more work lined up for him, since we trust the quality of Jon's work.

Jon Cumming of Cumming Construction phone 610-519-0245, tore down the kitchen/dining room wall to open the floor plan. Radiant floor heating was placed and Jon did a superlative job of laying down the ceramic floor tile. He installed the kitchen cabinetry flawlessly. His mitering for the crown molding on the cabinets was perfect. He replaced double hung windows with a beautiful bay window and finished the window with, again, flawless mitering. The patio door was installed and works perfectly. We had unusual backsplash placed which he put up perfectly. The place looks fantastic!
Jon also did the upstairs bathroom as artwork. We tore down down the old wall and expanded the bathroom by 30" into the guest bedroom. He did a beautiful job on the subway tile on the walls and the floor tile was again beautifully done.

I would highly recommend Jon to be able to handle any kind of job from small job to major renovations. I have recommended him to others who have loved his work as well.

Jon is such a wonderful find I would not consider using another contractor.

Jon is very easy going, does not get rattled, is very professional, prompt and fair.
Always on time and works hard for his money
One great thing about Jon, is that you are his only job until it is completed.
NO disappearing acts!!!!!

The finished product looks much better than what we started with, and we are generally very pleased.  Jon was on time for the estimate, on time for the project, and finished it on time (and on budget!), as well.  He was also punctual and clear in his communications, which is appreciated.  We are looking to build a 2nd floor egress to a roof deck next summer, and will consider Jon for that project, as well.

I started first by reviewing Jon's website ( which was well done),  I sent an email in which he called a few days later and set up a visit for a quote.  I did get a few other quotes, but Jon took his time explaining the process and walking me through it.  This was my first large project,  his quote was great and his overall demeanor was reassuring.
I was lucky enough to lock him in before the busy spring/summer season so we started the project within a month.  Jon and his son were fantastic to work with. Professional and courteous while working in my home.  Jon was true to his word and adhered to the contract and timeline. 
I was very impressed with the quality of workmanship, materials used, and overall appearance.  I would definitely recommend his services, and I plan on using them again for my kitchen.
I absolutely love the rooftop deck,  amazing views of the city skyline!!
I really appreciate all your hard work, thank you again!
