Harjo Construction Services LLC

Kurt and his team did a wonderful job. They were professional throughout the process. Kurt took obvious pride in doing the job well and paid attention to detail. His workers are friendly and responsible. 
This was a big job that took approximately 5 months to complete. We are very happy with the work they did and highly recommend Harjo Construction!

The quality of the framing was fine, but the material bill was padded.

Harjo had done some minor work for me last year, with which I was very pleased, so I called him again for these jobs. The work was very well done, it was done quickly and neatly (no cleanup problems) and at a reasonable cost. I really appreciate the professionalism of his workers. When I have more work to do I will certainly call Harjo Construction again.

From the moment I first talked to Kurt, I was impressed with his ?can-do? attitude.  As backstory, we had just recently bought a lovely 1952 home and upon the second day of moving in, the finished basement began leaking and we discovered mold growing inside all of the walls and under all of the vinyl flooring (about 800 square feet of living space).  Upon removing the wall-boards, we also discovered that the window wells were leaking as well.  While this was going on, we found out that the back-yard pool (that we were told simply needed a new filter) was 60+ years old and needed to be completely overhauled (resurfaced, new plumbing, electricity, etc).  Since the a large portion of what had once been our property had been sold off and developed,  there was no room for heavy equipment, which made either replacing the pool or filling it in nearly impossible.  
Needless to say, we were overwhelmed and upset when we began the hunt for contractors.  When I first spoke with Kurt and explained our situation (we hoped to fill in the pool and turn it into a yard, and waterproof and re-finish our basement), he first commiserated with me and then said flat out "I'm going to fix this for you!" and set up a meeting that day.  I was immediately impressed with his ability to look at the multitude of projects,make a plan and then get to work.  It was certainly challenging, but Kurt found a way to get over the inability to get heavy equipment into the back-yard, which included hiring a tele-belt to shuttle pea-gravel over our roof and doing a lot of the work by hand--including 2 weeks of jack-hammering to get through the rebar of a gunite pool.  
Kurt?s team is absolutely amazing.  I have never seen a group of men work so hard.  They were at our home every day by 7am and I am not sure I ever saw them stop to take a break outside of lunch time.  They were respectful of our space and time, and always cleaned up after themselves.  Outside of the Harjo team (which did all of the landscaping and fencing work, as well as quite a bit of the interior), all of Kurt?s subcontractors were high-quality, polite and hard-working.  Kurt?s on-site superintendent, Stacy, was incredibly knowledgeable and very easy to work with.  I always felt like I could get ahold of either Kurt or Stacy whenever I needed them.
What originally seemed like a desperate situation--moving into a new home only to discover that the finished basement needed to waterproofed and refinished and the pool and backyard needed a massive overhaul--it truly turned out to be a blessing in disguise.  We now have a large backyard space with fresh grass, new patio refurbished shed and a beautiful new fence as well as a fresh,  finished basement that looks amazing.
Kurt and his team can make any project happen.  We will certainly be using Harjo Construction in the future!

Kurt Harjo and team did an excellent job. We had very old failing siding on our south facade. Kurt's team removed the siding and replaced it with clear jointed fir siding and were able to blend in the new siding to the existing old siding on the east and west sides of the house. Harjo Construction worked well with the painting contractor who came in to paint and prep after siding and other improvements; after painting Harjo came back in to rebuild the deck. We had one minor hiccup on the deck design, but Kurt had a guy come out on the weekend to fix it and we were back on our way. Kurt's prices are fair and he's good to work with, he says he wants open and frequent communication and he definitely practices what he preaches.
We had a deck put in with Trex and it looks great; it took a little while to complete, but it was early November and really rainy, so the work conditions were a little challenging. But once the team had a couple of clear days they finished it up and cleaned up nicely.

Work was very professionally and thoroughly done. No corners were cut. It looks good and was done to last. Just what I wanted.

Took a week to complete work. They were tidy and cleaned up after project completion. Carpentry work on exterior of house and steps very well done. Fixing interior sliding pocket door was a tricky project but was accomplished without having to remove doorway trim. Crew was courteous and communicated well with me. Cost was reasonable. I would recommend this company and would use them again.
