Testimonials

“James has worked on our homes for more than twenty years. He shows up, explains what is going on, and finishes what he starts. The work still looks as good as the week he did it.”
– L.M., Laguna Niguel★★★★★
“I had a quote from another contractor for $25,000 to fix a problem. James came out, took a real look, and found the actual issue. He solved it for about half that, and the repair both works and looks great. I trust him to do the right thing, not the easy thing.”
– V.R., San Clemente★★★★★
“We opened up our kitchen and living room and I was nervous about the mess and the structure. James walked us through what was inside the walls and what had to be done to keep everything safe and to code. He kept the site as clean as possible and the new space feels like it was always part of the house.”
