With more than 70 years of combined experience we are experts when it comes to any type of home remodeling and repair projects. We're so confident in our work that we provide a 1 year warranty on everything we do. Whether you have a leak or you're looking for something brand new- we can help, and save on your energy bill, too!

We heard nothing but good things about JW Home Improvement, however Miguel Romeo and William Gebara exceeded our expectations. They came in ready to work and did an outstanding job. We are completely satisfied with the work and you should have no doubts that we will be calling your company in the future whenever we need work completed to our house.

Completely exceeded my expectations! The front porch looks exactly how I wanted it - but better than I thought it would turn out. Alberto and Javiar were friendly, professional, and did pristine work. It looks like they took pride in what they were doing. I will absolutely contact JW for future projects!

It's astounding to me that this company has any positive reviews whatsoever. I had a list of pretty easy home improvement projects for JW to perform (easy in that any handyman would have been able to complete them, so I've since learned my lesson), and the contractors not only performed the job extremely slowly, but they didn't do any of the work correctly. Our shower door handles were installed backwards, our ceiling fan was installed with the extender attached on an already low ceiling, and our bathroom faucet had the handles aimed downward, instead of outward.

I met a recommendation on this page writing how Mr williams johnson helped a lady earn $12,600 with $1000. I quickly took his number and texted him how i can trade in his platform, he explained all I needed to know about investment, and I started with a little capital of $1000 the happiest thing was that my money was safe. With Mr williams johnson… platform, I made a successful withdrawal of $10560 withing 7days investment, do not miss this opportunity my brother and sister.this is the only way to appreciate him let people no about his investment platform.it is the truth and nothing to hide

Communication is through a call center, wait to get to rep. Then they ask a lot of irrelevant questions before scheduling a visit. Salesman came out, had no suggestions, no ideas on the project, was unable to answer questions. We would need to order the new door ourselves, but he was unable to provide any specs for us to use. Everything done at hourly rate, no firm estimate provided, just gave a verbal ballpark of hours required, pretty high. He wanted to schedule on the spot. We asked for a written proposal, he said he would send it. Never heard from him again. Just no.

Overpriced for installing a screen door I already paid for. While they were on time and did a good job on 7/8, I would not recommend or choose them for any future work. Here is the breakdown of charges.

Securing an appointment on 6/14: $50.
Estimate labor cost (2 people with minimum 2 hours of work) on 6/21: $456
Additional amount after job completed: $376

Grand Total: $882 for installing a screen door and moving my video doorbell less than an inch away from the original spot.

Americo was on time, friendly and knowledgeable. He was able to repair 2 doors for me in addition to caulking in kitchen and bathroom. Highly recommend this company and surely will hire them in the future.

The guys were great. They showed up early almost every day and did an awesome job. They did repairs on my porch and painted. They also remodeled my bathroom. They had excellent suggestions when on-site conditions required changes. They were very professional and wore masks. I've used them before and will definitely see them again. Highly recommend them!

Not a good experience here. They sent a salesman to estimate the job; estimated price of the work to be done was high, but I'm not home much or often so I went ahead with it; they scheduled me for a date six weeks out from the estimate date(!); I had to come back to town to meet them for the job, but the day before the work was to be done I called to make sure we were all set and they said "it might rain tomorrow, so we're not going to come out to do the work. How about the middle of next week?" After wasting six weeks waiting on them, I had to cancel and now have to start

Oh where to start with this company! Well, they did hit the trifecta: overpriced, shoddy work and unreliable. (to be fair, the overpriced part is my fault as I should have just said no).

I had a roof leak it and it ended up on my master bath ceiling and leaking onto the floor. The section of drywall to repair was probably 4' x 4'. Fix the leak up top and repair the ceiling. Cost to me, the impatient customer? Just under $2000 for one day of work. So again, my bad but I needed it fixed. I should have known better as he said there would be a worker available the next day. That should have

Replaced Old Gutter System.
It was a great job. I've used JW Home Improvement before for inside small jobs. The estimate was well within the average for the job. The crew that came to do the removal of the old gutters and install the new system was terrific. Mr. Thomas Matamoros was the crew chief with assistance from Kevin and Gary. They arrived on time, worked hard and finished the job in the estimated time. Of great help, was the fact that they arrived at the beginning of the 2 hour estimated arrival time. Mr. Matamoros walked thru the expected job before starting the work. When it was

So happy we found Jesse and his crew. Jesse's crew showed up and finished the job of another handyman crew. His team is efficient and they do great work. They did painting, concrete repair, electrical work, carpentry work and more. You get what you pay for and our investment in JW Home Improvement was a very worthwhile one.

Thanks Team Jesse!

Called them and they told me they needed to help someone out and that they would call me in back in 5 minutes. Waited two hours and no one called me back. I called again, gave them all my information, and they told me again that they would call me back to schedule a visit. They never called me back. Dodged a bullet, I suppose.

Kevin and Soren from JWHI have been working in my home for three days now, and they have been wonderful! I have needed chandeliers hung and most of my electrical outlets to be switched out. In addition, I needed powerwashing of the back patio and the front walk, along with replacement of lots of loose grout and replacement of rotting boards in the deck area. The work they did was excellent, and both Kevin and Soren were very professional and a delight to work with. They are returning in a couple of weeks to install a new cupola on my garage roof to replace one which was completely blown off

ANGE F36054AACAED-to paint kitchen wall before new refridge put in:

What started as a 3 hour 'deal' from Angies list for 3 hours of Handy man work; to paint a small kitchen walls where I took down the border [considering backsplash] to turn into $1,326.47 -[minus-$289 Angies list credit for 3 hours]. And unnecessary time involved.
1) Communication issues with Handymen, and Jim Wolohan and receptionist was lacking. Jim called after I booked- wanting me to re-do a review I did last year. I re-read and felt it was spot on. However, I called Angies list to verify if that were possible

If I could give them 0 stars, I would.

I have used JW before on various handyman services on my rental properties but it has been probably 2 years since so I did not remember their hourly rate. I was given different information at the time of scheduling the estimate of the job and the project manager I spoke with wanted to go through the phone recordings to verify this. I have no issues of him doing so since I was not lying about being told incorrect information on the minimum hours for a job or that they would honor a current promotion going on, but for him to do so makes it feels like the customer

TLDR: Worst customer service I've ever received in my life. Work was subpar & I had to fight with them for months over it before they finally made it right. They make you a priority if you write a review. Otherwise, they're terrible at returning calls.

Long Version: I did my research. They seemed trustworthy. Scheduling the estimate was easy & the estimator seemed professional. I felt confident that hiring them would be a good decision. I couldn't have been more wrong.

The two people who came out to do the work barely spoke English & obviously did not know what they

My low rating was from my phone experience with this company. Afterwards I chose not to use their home improvement services. This is why.

I called JW Home Improvements in McLean, VA, to learn of the full extent of services they offer under the Angie's List deal, $149 for 3 hours, of handyman services. The person who answered the phone cut me off during my first sentence and quickly took control of the conversation. He began trying to sell me on different, more costly contract packages. I stuck to my guns on the Angie's List deal. He then informed me that after paying Angie&apos

Thank you so much for the excellent service. The mechanics, Luther and Samuel, did a great job which made the entire process a pleasure to do business with your company. I will definitely use your services again. The original estimate for 2 men X 2 days was cut in half by the mechanics who worked like two synchronized swimmers.
OUTSTANDING.

I should have asked for my Angie's List deposit back and hired someone else. The two guys took forever installing two shower heads, two medicine cabinets, and two closet organizers. Surely, with two men working, the organizers should have taken 2-3 hours, tops. They installed the shelves wrong and that made the drawers misalign. When I told them about it, they said, "It's how they go." No. They did not. I explained to them showing them the instructions they claim to have read that the shorter shelf goes on the bottom for the drawers, which will them stack evenly on top of each
