Excellent job, demo, electrical and drywall were done on time with no problems. Coordinating the countertop, backsplash tile and other options were easily done. Most important, communications were excellent, they were very responsive and the projects were completed on time and budget. This is our third time using JABS, as they renovated two bathrooms and have also done our siding, windows and roof over the last 13 years. Great company!

Though I did not use JABS CONSTRUCTION, my telephone and appointment set up was excellent. I was excited to have a real live person answer the phone and provide the information I needed. We made an appointment (that I ended up cancelling because the work was done by a former contractor). When I called to cancel, the young lady was gracious, understood that I would not be using their service and let me know that they are there should I ever need them. In this age of "Press 1 for other options" it was nice to just talk to someone. Great experience!

Horrific!!! We contacted this unprofessional business for a remodel quote and when the representative showed up, his exact words were, "If I would have known it was you, I wouldn't have come. You're wasting my time." Apparently being a Veteran, serving your country in combat, being disabled, and trying to have work done on a VA grant is a waste of their time. He was VERY rude, arrogant, disrespectful and highly unprofessional. If you're a Veteran or disabled Veteran, do not waste YOUR time being insulted by this company. It's a disgrace and disgusting to be humiliated in your own home. We would not recommend this company to ANYONE, Veteran or civilian, for ANY project.

They were very responsive in that I called other service providers and got their answering service, so if called JABS on the recommendation of my plumber. Their electrician came within 3 hours, diagnosed the problem, went to the store to get parts and was completed within 2 hours. The problem was fixed and my hot water heater was working again.

All through the remodeling process all of the JABS personnel were courteous and professional. They showed up on time and with the proper materials every day of the demolition and remodel of my hall bathroom. They treated my home with respect and left it clean at the end of every day. When we had a slight glitch with my tile selection, a solution was reached quickly and they incorporated the change with grace and ease. I exceeded my cost allowance with my choice of materials which, naturally. increased the original estimate of the remodel. I'm very pleased with the results and would definitely choose JABS again.

We received the name of Jabs from a neighbor and trust their judgment. They were quite happy with Jabs' work. 7/11/2014: Someone from Jabs came out to give us a quote to have our kitchen fixed after a kitchen leak. We explained that we also need the quote to present to our insurance company. I was told if they had any more questions they would get back to us and that we should receive the quote in 1-2 weeks. 7/16/2014: I called to see if the quote was ready and was told by the lady on the phone and quot;we were just out there on last Friday.and quot; then she preceded to tell me that and quot;the quote would not be ready that until next week as it was the son who came out for his father and it is the father that has to work up the numbers and he was away.and quot; I explained that we were trying to get the quote to to present to our insurance company for the repairs. 07/25/2014: I called and was told that they were working on it and would get back with me. 08/12/2014: It has now been over one month since they came out to take original measurements. They never submitted a quote and we have opted to go with someone else who is more responsive and apparently wants business.

Estimator came by as promised about a week later and spent a 90 minutes with us going over options for new cabinets, counter tops, and installation services and he took measurements. we asked for a ball park figure regarding costs but were told he would send a formal proposal within two weeks. We never heard back from them. I didn't want to hire a company who couldn't get the first step right so we went w/another contractor.
Description of Work: We contacted JABS for an estimate on new kitchen cabinets. They were polite and very helpful on the phone so we scheduled a date for an estimator to come by and discuss options.

This will sound difficult to believe given all the horror stories about contractors but Jabs is top notch !! They were not the lowest bid but after checking out actual work done at other sites from all the bidders and talking with the homeowners we decided on Jabs and boy are we glad we did !! This was a massive undertaking so we saw them virtually everyday for almost 6 months, they finished ahead of schedule and within cost. Cannot recommend them enough.

We think they're terrific and just fantastic. They're honest and reliable. These people are great. The work they have done is absolutely topnotch, fantastic quality, everything about it. I got to choose the tiles. They gave me advise. I got to choose the cabinets, toilets, tubs and everything. They came and checked with me to make sure everything was okay. We found out after they went and looked at the floor that when it was originally done, it was a very poor job. The people who originally did it didn't do it correctly. Jabs Construction Inc. did it correctly. We got to choose the tiles. Everything looked beautiful and gorgeous. I've had no trouble at all. One trouble was because of the drawer. They sent somebody out and they took care of it. That was it. They're always willing and they're always very detailed. They never rushed me. They spent as much time as they needed to answer my questions. They're honest. They wanted to make sure that we were getting what we wanted for the dollars that we want to spend. They don't up-sell. They could have done it with our cabinets. I could always say "Can you give me two price ranges?" or "Give me the top price ranges or give me the middle. If I have this done, what would it cost and if I don't have this done, how much would it cost?" They always write it up and they tell me. They never tried to push me. It's not about money, it's about making us happy. There is nothing they don't do. I felt safe with them in my house around me.
Description of Work: Jabs Construction Inc. redid our kitchen, our bathrooms. They're going to do a screen on our back porch. A few weeks ago, they came out and gave us a free estimate on our deck. We had work done by them five years ago. It was the bathroom. We had a problem with the faucet. They came out and repaired it. It was free. They took care of it. They put in new doors in our family room and our basement. They redid the floors upstairs. They redid the tile in the family room. They moved the toilet, they took the tub off and they put a different tub in. They redesigned our bathroom. It was very old-fashioned and they made it up-to-date. They redid the kitchen floor. They redid the cabinets, changed the coloring. I had some cabinets and book cases put in. Everything was redone in our kitchen. I only have one oven and I wanted a double oven, they put in a double oven. They installed new counter tops.

work was done professionally and quickly, always on time for workers and kept on expected schedule. follow-through with sub-contractors, when necessary was prompt and proficient. Tim Jabs is a true professional, as are the staff/office manager (Collene). I would use them as much as I can afford because they are so predictably GOOD and their reputation is well-deserved.

Outstanding !!!
Description of Work: Jabs is a "one stop shop" who masterminded and completed an extensive two story addition to our home -- from the ground up: architectural design, foundation, framing, roofing, drywall, electrical, plumbing (all HVAC). Most notably is the carpentry work – quite a bit of “adhoc” finishing touches were done above and beyond the contracted work. I cannot possibly recommend this business highly enough.
