J & S Enterprises

I called this company maybe a million times it seemed like, as well as leaving Tara a voicemail about the service I needed done. They must be very selective in what they’ll do because I never received a call back, ever, despite the many attempts I made. Terrible customer service!

I needed to temporarily support my carport roof while the concrete pad underneath was being repaved. Additionally, I wanted to take the opportunity to realign the carport roof as it had developed quite a sag over the decades. Jerome came out to assess the situation. Based on our conversation and his systematic approach to diagnosing the problem, as well as his appraisal of what would need to be done to safely address the issue without cracking some of the beams that ran the length of the roof line, I felt confident that his company would do a good job. And they did. I am very happy with the work and will absolutely contact J&S again for any future repairs and/​or remodels. The cost ended up being a bit higher than anticipated due to material costs, but in line with what another company quoted. I believe him to be very honest and professional, and his crew returned to correct a minor issue (at no charge) that we felt was a probable consequence of having straightened the roof line. Tara, his business manager with whom I spoke on several occasions, is a delight!

I Contacted this company for a bathroom remodel project back about a yr ago.
Jerome ask me to text him pictures of my bathroom and he would send me a estimate base on the pictures. (1^st of all where they do this at!)
After several attempts to contact him, he finally called to say he never received the pictures that I texted to the number he gave me. So sent them again!
When he didn’t returned my phone calls after my 2^nd attempt to send the pictures, I gave up on him!

I had the BEST experience with J&S Enterprises today, particularly with Chris and David. Both guys are beyond professional and went the extra mile to address some issues I was not even aware of. The fee they charged me was so incredibly reasonable that I actually felt like I underpaid relative to the work they provided. I’m so appreciative of J&S, Chris, and David and definitely intend on using them after the holidays to address some other home issues I need taken care of.

I hired J&S for a 2^nd floor tub leaking into the bathroom below ruining the entire lower floor bathroom ceiling and mold spots evident. I got 2 bids, J&S being one who I called based on these Unilocal reviews. The 1^st guy (a friend’s referral) was able to come right out but I had to wait a few days for J&S to come out for the estimate as they were extremely busy at the time. Since I was able to use the downstairs shower in the meantime it was not urgent and I really liked what I’d heard about J&S, liked their website AND my initial phone conversation with Jerome.
I’m SO glad I waited. The first guy was nice and all but the difference when Jerome came to give his estimate was like night and day. Jerome is EXTREMELY knowledgeable about ALL aspects of proper home building and errors in construction etc. He immediately diagnosed the problem and it was a MUCH simpler solution than the first guy made it out to be.
It was a 1and½ — day job for J&S and Jerome came by both days to check the work that was being done which involved plumbing, some demolition of which turned out to be a CONCRETE ceiling (unheard of) to get at the upper floor tub drain, mold treatment (there was fortunately only a small amount) and the new ceiling install and prep & paint. Jerome had told me that his initial estimate might increase substantially depending on what was found and it did increase by about 30% mostly due to the concrete ceiling with wire mesh which increased the difficulty of the job. Of course an estimate is just that — an estimate — so I was prepared for a slight increase anyway.
The actual workers were reliable, personable, considerate and did great work, cleaning all up afterward. They even immediately replaced a shower head that was damaged by accident in the process of repairing the ceiling. They used all high-​quality paint and materials and not cheap junk and it looks perfect.
To the ones who had trouble getting return calls or the estimate back quickly, just remember that typically, most of these contractors –and especially the good ones– are pretty busy. My first bid didn’t send me an estimate and after a week went by I had to call him to send it and it took a few more days after that. I did have to send an email reminder to Jerome also as he was late with the estimate as well, but he apologized that they had been incredibly slammed and sent me his estimate the next day.
I was never interested in going with the lowest estimate — to me it is more about the quality of the work and whether you are getting what you pay for and not some trumped up charges. When I first visited the J&S website I saw that their main slogan is «Honesty, Integrity and Quality Workmanship» which is one of the reasons I picked them. Well, you can believe every word.
Jerome also told me he is VERY picky about his crew and they are seriously vetted and tested on all levels including security issues. And doubly so if they are workers coming INTO the house. So you are not getting some Joe Schmoe!
I would highly recommend J&S Enterprises for any problem and when I do my kitchen & bathroom remodel I now know who to call.

So let me begin by saying that J&S Enterprises is an exceptional company and that both Tara and Jerome are extremely professional!
Although we ran into some scheduling issues early on, partly due to the season and partly to my availability, Jerome was able to come in and check on my property and provide a quote within a reasonable amount of time.
The work they did was up to code and his technicians were very clean tidy and respectful seeing that there was an infant at the property.
If your looking for home repairs i’d definitely recommend him!

Contacted J&S to set up an appointment and got one scheduled pretty easily. Unfortunately, Jerome was out of town so had to reschedule, which was not a big deal. Met with Jerome on a Thursday to get a quote and he was nice. I waited a week to get the quote and never heard anything. I called the office and tried to get ahold of him as well. Spoke with someone in his office who said he was out of town again until the next Tuesday. A week later, still nothing and to this day (16 days after meeting with Jerome) still nothing. Very frustrated that this time was wasted. I was hopeful after reading all the nice reviews about this company. Unfortunately, I did not have the same experience and have no choice but to find a different company to use.

Jerome was very polite and but not honest. I opened the door and he let me know he hated working in this condo because of the restrictions and his past experiences.
I really wish that he would have been truthful on the phone and saved us both time.
As he proceeded to say he couldn’t or wouldn’t do this he gave the names of 2 service people who worked for him who could do parts of the job. At higher prices.
I needed someone who could do it all. He advertised as a handyman. But stated he didn’t like working in this condo.
But the worse part was that on one job that he said he could do and would get me an estimate on he never did. I texted him to follow up on it and he said oh yes it is on it’s way.
I am very disgusted with his service. He knew the address from our first conversation. Perhaps he just needed to chock up mileage. But I needed a worker not a social call.

J&S has helped us on several projects. Most recently Devon and Dave came by to repaint our bathroom ceiling due to some water damage.
Devon and Dave arrived while my wife was taking the kids to school. Instead of simply waiting around and doing nothing, they opted to blow some of our leaves off our driveway and walk. Once inside, in addition to the painting and ceiling work they helped Kate hang some pictures. They were professional and above all, just nice.
Ultimately the quality of the craft is the most important thing to Kate and me – good thing all the work J&S has completed has been fantastic. We’ll definitely be calling on J&S for future work too.

Outstanding experience from start to finish! From a prompt and professional quote appointment with Jerome to quality workmanship from Alex to great communication and responsiveness from office manager Tara, my experience was excellent. I highly recommend J&S and look forward to working with the team again in the future.

I’m so happy to have found J & S! We had wood replaced around a bathroom window, an outlet installed and a new bathroom ceiling fan installed. Chris and Gus handled the repairs and were the most courteous home service people that we’ve ever had in our house. They were quiet, clean and knowledgeable. My project had a couple of snags and I was given options and advice.
I’ll be using them again and recommending to all my friends. Thanks a ton!

J & S recently performed an extensive remodel our master bathroom, including the removal of walls and complete reconfiguration of the space. They did a terrific job and were a pleasure to work with every step of the way. Jerome is one of the most professional and responsible service providers that I have ever worked with. In addition, he is creative and able to think outside of the box to solve problems that inevitably come up in the process of any complicated project.

Let’s face it. It’s hard to find a good, competent and trustworthy contractor to handle the various aspects of house maintenance. J&S Enterprises is a standup operation, a company that goes above and beyond for its customers, and most importantly, a business I feel I can trust. I recently had J&S complete installation of two security doors and door jam reinforcements after my front door was kicked in by a bunch of thugs. It is times like these when you are thrilled to have people like Jerome, J&S owner, on your side. When my house was missing a front door and I felt helpless to do anything about it, J&S was there and promptly took care of my situation. I felt that Jerome understood my predicament and offered solutions that made my life easier. I definitely plan to hire J&S again.

We are a nonprofit, and J&S came out and gave us a very reasonable quote on some exterior work, along with completely painting the exterior and some gutter work. His guys were professional and quiet. We were very very happy with the results and I highly recommend them!

Based on the Unilocal reviews, I contacted J&S for a repair job on the deadbolt of my front door. I couldn’t be happier with the service and quality of work! Jerome was very responsive and informative when I described the issue and was able to quickly set up an appointment convenient for my schedule.
The repairman, Chris, came right on time (I have to give extra brownie points for this… in a world where it’s normal to wait 2+ hours for Comcast, maintenance workers, et al., it was refreshing to have J&S come exactly when they said they would). Chris was extremely professional, finished the job quickly, and did a great job. Jerome followed up with me by phone later to confirm that everything was up to standard.
The price was $ 75 for the first hour of service, even if the job doesn’t take the full hour. Could you find a cheaper price on Craigslist or elsewhere? Yes, probably. But hiring J&S is worth the price, given the peace of mind you’ll have that they’ll do a good job and not waste your time. I will absolutely use J&S again in the future and highly recommend them!

My wife and I are very pleased with the quality of their work. We hired J&S for painting a couple of walls in our condo and hanging a few paintings (including a particular heavy one). Because of a timing constraint on our end, Jerome was kind enough to get people out within two days. I’ve had some contractors try to put a «rush» premium on this but he fortunately did not. The guys that came out were professional and courteous. The walls look great and they paintings were hung safely (even covering up a failed attempt I made earlier).
You may be able to get a cheaper service from Craigslist. We pursued a crew who advertised an incredible rate but realized something was wrong in that we had to chase them! As i like to say, «That may be the price to you but it’s certainly not the cost.»
If you want the job done professionally and within a reasonable time, you’ll give Jerome a call.

I hired Jerome for a long list of fairly small problems around the house, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Jerome was very responsive in scheduling and planning. Some work he performed himself, and some he had his crew take care of. He personally inspected all of the work his crew performed. The crew was excellent. All of them were polite and efficient, and cleaned up thoroughly as they went. I felt very confident in the quality of their work. I’ll be calling Jerome again when I have repairs past my own abilities!

Jerome is a wonderful find! He recently helped us with several small projects around our home and made sure an EXCELLENT job was done — both in the gutter/​roof work and some major yard cleanup/​debris removal work. He made sure the crew did an excellent job, he checked in with us during the process, and followed up afterwards to be sure we were satisfied — which we were above and beyond happy with the work he did.
We are looking forward to working with him for a full kitchen remodel this coming spring!
My husband and I can’t speak highly enough of Jerome!

I can not begin to provide enough positive feedback for J&S Enterprises. They deserve 10 stars!
My husband and I hired them to help wrap up the big items on our work-​list before our first baby is born (in about 8 weeks), and in the end these guys handled ALL of the items on our list and now we can just relax until baby arrives.
Jerome and his excellent team did some serious electric and plumbing work for us (stuff we never could have done alone) as well as some smaller stuff like hanging a big mirror and replacing our locks. They were timely, courteous, knowledgeable, and very patient with all of my questions.
I highly recommend these guys. They went above and beyond to get the job done (we have an older house that posed some unique issues).

Jerome completed a total renovation of the bathroom in my loft. He was professional, engaged, courteous, and meticulous! During the renovation, my air conditioner stopped working. He took care of that repair immediately.
When my windows began leaking/​allowing water to enter my house (nightmare), Jerome came over as soon as I called on CHRISTMAS EVE to patch them until he could do a full repair. He spent 6 hours of his Christmas Eve working on my windows so that I wouldn’t have to stress about my house flooding over the holiday.
I am so impressed with his work ethic and level of craftsmanship that it was a no brainer to give him a call when I decided to get new hardwood floors!
I cannot believe how lucky I am to have a contractor like Jerome. He is incredibly patient with my pets and will not leave until the job is done the way you want it done. I think it’s so important to have a truly consultative contractor and Jerome fits the bill perfectly. I absolutely reccommend J&S to anyone looking for a contractor.
