J&J worked with us to design and remodel our kitchen along with some additional renovations in our downstairs. They provided design options and went through the good and bad of each option. They laid out a schedule that included demolition, drywall, mechanicals, installation, painting, and floor refinishing. Best of all, the kept to the original published schedule. They were available to answer many questions during the process and were flexible to handle some additional work during the project. J&J and their subcontractors were professional and conscientious about doing quality work. They paid attention to details and fixed any issues that came up. Overall J&J Construction is an excellent company that will provide quality work

Superior service. Excellent Results

FANTASTIC people to work with so far and looking forward to seeing my finished product!

Hiring J&J Construction for our kitchen remodel was the best decision I have made as a homeowner!

Great work and stayed exactly on the schedule they promised they would from the beginning... we love our new bathroom!

Looking to have our bathroom remodeled and called J&J for an estimate. The office staff was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. We are looking forward to working with them soon.

Called for an estimate for master bathroom, they said minimum $60,000? I'm not Michael Jordan living in Oak Brook, il. I could build a house for that, what a joke, bye!!!!!!!!

Joey helped me to get our renovations done in our summer Aurora home. Great service and quality materials. Me and my wife couldn’t be happier

I have been waiting over a year for a deck job to be completed. The deck was expensive, and cosmetically it looks great...I think Joe the owner has even used it as a 'sales pitch.' However, I was 'sold' and idea which seemed great at the time...an underneath 'gutter' system on a Tree deck to make the underneath a water free usable space. It leaked. A 'patch' repair was done and the work was never completed, and over a year later, despite my attempts to contact the company and Joe...no one returns my call. I was left with very large and heavy panels of water damaged headboard plywood, and an exposed ceiling and gutter system underneath - even my neighbors have complained at it's 'unsightliness.'
I am a single woman without the physical strength or ability to take care of this myself, and the building of this deck exhausted my funds.
In addition, the supporting posts of this very expensive deck are on piers, however the piers sit so low in the ground, that the base of the supports are pretty much very vulnerable to water damage /rot. I have since had to hire other people to try to compensate for some of these problems, such as adding concrete as well as wrapping posts in an effort to prevent water damage.
I am still awaiting a call from this company. I would still very much like them to come out here and rectify the problems, and finish this job.

I have used J and J Construction on two major renovations/additions to my home. One when I was pregnant in 2004. I added a four season sunroom to my home. They did an unbelievable job. More than exceeded my expectations. Mike the head of my project was amazing. They did everything I asked and more! The crews were in and out when they said they would be. Called before they came if there was something that needed to be worked on that I wasn't aware of. They always left the area clean. I was so impressed I hired them for a project to gut my entire first floor including removing walls and raising ceilings! It was in 2006, my daughter was 2 at the time. They made my home very livable, blocking off my first floor from the rest of the house. Everything was done on time, they always left my property clean when they were done for the day, I love working with this company. I hope to be adding a 3rd level addition to my home. I will be using J and J for this addition also!!

Joe and his crew put a 2nd floor addition on our Elmhurst home, as well as a sunroom. The work is OUTSTANDING. They actually met the time frame provided (4 months), and were very honest and transparent in everything they did. Joe was just a phone call away and fun to work with. He has also completed work for other family members and friends, and everyone highly recommends J&J. Now I know why! Thanks, Joe!

J & J remodeled our basement; new walls, flooring, bathroom, electrical. The project started on time and actually finished sooner than the promised completion date!
They were terrific about the few items I felt were not finished as I had envisioned them, all of these changes were completed quickly and without my having to make calls to get them back here. Everything they said they would do they did.
Nice people, clean, considerate of my pets and property.

I contacted this company requesting a quote to remove a living room wall.. Joe proceeded to tell me they only do bathroom and kitchen remodels along with additions and what I needed was a handyman. He then proceeds to tell me they only take jobs for greater than $25,000. I asked him if he had any referrals and he said laughing that he does not have any referrals for anyone less than $25,000 job because anyone he knows who would do a job for less than $25,000 is going to screw it up and he said I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place with my project.

Just two years after remodeling our master bath, and hall bath...here are the issues we have!! First, some of the grout in our expensive showers, wipes out every time I clean! Joe says "harsh chemicals" MUST have been used on it! I don't have harsh chemicals in my house, nor do I use harsh chemicals! He Took months to "research" grout they used, and decided it wasn't his fault! Still must be "harsh chemicals"! Nothing is their fault, if they can find a way around it! Then.... toilet paper holder, which they mounted on my new cabinet without asking, keeps getting lose, and is impossible to tighten! They did fix it one time, but has since gotten worse! Then...I started noticing the finish coming off my expensive cabinets, along the edge! But of course, warranty is up on that too! Now, the finish is coming off cabinet hardware, so will have to replace after just two years! Also water sits in corners of my shower, and causes mold. Guess they didn't pitch the shower floor correctly! Lastly, my 25-30 lb mirror nearly fell off the wall! I noticed it was crooked, we took it down, and the screws were ripping down the drywall and pulling out! Thank God I noticed it, someone could have been seriously injured! I don't recommend this place....at all! I tell all my friends to go elsewhere! And you should too!

J & J were able to beautifully remodel a bathroom in my Victorian home that had not been updated (except for minor cosmetic repairs) since it was originally built. They were able to reserect it from a non functional state very quickly and with minimal disruption to the rest of the house. Their attention to detail and experience allowed them to return the bathroom into a fully functional and delightful part of my house despite all of the quirks hidden within an old home's surface. I am thrilled with the results and am happily working with them on additional renovations.

J&J is hands down the best contractor we have ever worked with. They completed a massive remodel and addition of our home, on time, on budget, and were engaged with all aspects of the projects. Did we have issues? You bet. Every project does, but when they popped up Joe and Mike were quick to identify and resolve them.

This past summer, J & J was out to our home to do a retaining wall and a complete new deck. The finished results are amazing. Our deck looks so good, our neighbors came over to check it out up close and personal. Our deck looks like it has been part of the house since the beginning. Anyone seeing our home for the first time would not guess it had not always been a part of the house. It looks like it belongs.
J & J did a wonderful job. The guys that came out were out there on time every day; advised us of any schedule changes and were extremely polite. They were out during the hottest part of the summer. We brought them out cold water every couple of hours and they could not have been more appreciative.
Our project manager kept in touch with us on a regular basis and returned all phone calls promptly. Everyone was polite, friendly and professional.
I would recommend them to anyone. If we do any more remodeling, they will be our first call.

My husband and I looked for a bathroom remodeler in Wheaton and came across J&J Construction. After meeting with Joe and Elaine we were sold on the company. They did a wonderful job in our master bathroom. The layout was awkward and outdated so Joe gave us a few different options to make it more fluid. They also were able to take out our existing jacuzzi tub that hadn't been used in years and replace it with a huge walk in shower! We are so in love with how it turned out! I can't wait to get him started on the kids' bathroom.

We hired J&J to update our master bathroom. Overall, we were pleased with the job process and the finished product. Mike, the project manager, did a good job as our liaison with the project's sub-contractors. We did have an issue with one sub on a redo of some electrical work due to some miscommunication on whether internal or external medicine cabinets would fit in the existing space. However, this was resolved to our satisfaction with the owner Joe. This was our only significant issue during the project.

J&J strengths lie in their showroom, project management and a large volume of work that engenders subcontractor loyalty and performance. The process of selecting tile, cabinets, fixtures, etc. was fairly easy due to the ability to see these products before selection. Also, J&J uses Kohler products which are good quality and abundantly available on the web. This helped us with the choice and price of fixtures beyond what was included in J&J's contract.

Mike, the project manager, does stay in touch with you during the entire process. The subs were for the most part professional, and minor sub issues were addressed promptly by Mike. J&J also offers a five year warranty which was a significant plus in our consideration of contractors. The project ran about a week longer than anticipated, but much of that was attributable to the inspection process and the electrical issue previous mentioned.

For folks looking for a company that does a lot of bathroom remodels, with a systemized approach to the project, J&J is a good choice. As an aside, we had previous experience with other contractors during the construction of our home and a major basement remodel. Therefore, we had a good basis of comparison between J&J and other contractors. I would certainly consider J&J for future remodeling work.
