JH basement came highly referred by a neighbor who had recently had their basement finished by them. My wife and I were completely ""wowed"" by the work that was done in our neighbor's basement and we knew we had possibly found the right contractor for our basement project. Our initial impression of Joe was great! Joe showed up at our house on-time with a great attitude and creatively walked us through all the options to consider for the best layout of the basement. Almost immediately we agreed on a perfect layout for the best use of the space, with great options my wife and I never thought of. Joe came off as very honest and straight forward and never once used ""pushy"" type sales tactics. Joe gave us a ballpark quote for the total job and guaranteed to have a computer generated layout of the basement along with a more detailed quote within a day or two. We met with Joe a couple of days after our initial visit and reviewed the excellent computer generated layout as promised, with several other options and upgrades to consider. Joe's prices seemed very fair and my wife and I were eager to get started. Joe's team showed up in force on the agreed contract start date and within moments, hammers were swinging! Joe and his sons were excellent to work with and all the sub-contractors were top notch (many of whom have been working with Joe for more than 15 years). After initial framing was started we decided on a few changes and without hesitation Joe made it happen. Joe spent the time needed to ensure that all the finishes were exactly what we wanted, and was more than patient with several more requested changes as the project progressed. We are incredibly pleased with the finished result of our basement and we have received numerous compliments from house guests as well. In the end, we ended up with a great theater/multipurpose room with built in projector screen and speakers, wet bar and bathroom with many custom finishes, additional kids play area, and sizable guest bedroom. I highly recommend JH basement without hesitation, and will be happy to be a reference for anyone considering JH basement for their future basement project.\r
