Get matched with top major home repair pros (general contractors) in New Vernon, NJ

"Very happy with my experience with Joseph and Sons Construction. Was looking for a local contractor to handle several small/medium size projects around the home. Reviews were good so went with them. Could not be more pleased with the quality of work and responsiveness from Angelo. By the time it was finished, he felt like a neighbor Iâ ve known for years. He answered all my questions, and all work was completed exactly as described. The work included new brick and stone patio, foundation repair, porch repair, replacement of basement windows. Also gave many good suggestions for improvements I could do myself. I would definitely recommend them for any projects, big or small, around your home."

"My wife Kate were looking for someone to put a large addition on the back of our Cape style home in Montclair, and we met John thru a google search which took us to his website, from there after reading his background, looking at his achievements and the many photos we decided to reach out. We had architectural drawings, a wish list so to speak, and of course a budget. The project was a 18â x 28â addition, an open floor plan to allow for expansion of the kitchen, and dining room into what would become the Great Rm. When we first met, John looked at the drawings and noticed a few very important details were missing, our architect had not designed any support for where our rear wall of the house was going to be removed, this for the open floor plan, the opening was big, almost 24 ft. There also was no design for the cathedral ceiling at all, which was a major item on our wish list, so we right then and there called our architect, he stated he was having trouble making the design work. John raised an eyebrow, and looked intently at the plan and our existing rear wall and in just minutes had the solution for both the open plan support and the cathedral ceiling. We had to make a few design changes but it sounded like we were going to get close to what we were looking for. We talked a little more and John left with the drawings. We were extremely impressed with his ability to spot and solve the problem. A few weeks later after some back and forth on details and numbers, we met with John again, he had more detailed sketches of his solutions to the noted problems for the architect to apply to the drawings, and a contract which we had pretty much negotiated prior to the meeting. We signed him up and moved forward. From the first day to the last John was on site with is men, both directing, planning and getting his hands dirty. I should mention we were living in the house during all of this. He and his team alway made sure everything was kept clean, they took many precautions to keep the dust and grime out of the space we were using. He sent progress photos during the day most days which was very helpful as both me and my wife worked all day, so for the most part we only saw John early in the morning as we were leaving. He treated our home as if it were his, as yes no-one was home most days. Our expectations were high, and John and his team met all of them, their proactive approach to work, the attention to the details and the quality of work was nothing short of amazing. We totally love the space! We will always give him our future work! And share him with our friends!"

"We've owned our home for just over two years, and we have worked with Wilber's on several occasions now. I want to write to whole-heartedly recommend them. Enthusiastically. We've had them do smaller jobs like repairing some of our plaster walls in places that were beyond our ability, rebuilding porch posts that were rotten, and installing lattice around the porch. Recently we started a renovation of our garage -- which will involve replacing windows, repairing siding, and the largest part, completely replacing the roof. I'm writing this review after one of their teams just finished the new roof. I cannot speak highly enough about the professionalism of everyone we've worked with from Wilber's. Work areas are tidy. Work moves efficiently while attention to detail is totally maintained. The roofing foreman communicated with us throughout the job -- making sure we talked through any choices that had to be made. In those conversations, he was always clear and patient. I also have to say the same for Erick Granados who has been our point person on all of the jobs we've done with them. Erick's a pleasure to work with. Total pro. Direct about choices, costs and tradeoffs. The day we started work on the garage, we actually had a mishap -- which was that the foreman had ordered shingles that were close to what was on the house (IKO shingles) but not identical. When we realized the issue, we hit that point you sometimes reach contractors -- where something isn't quite right, and fixing it will require time and effort... and therefore expense... on behalf of the company. Erick and the roofing foreman simply made it right. No tension, no run around -- just made it right. I appreciate that so much. They just asked for the name of the shingles on the house, and before I knew it, someone came to get the other shingles, and brought the right ones within a few hours. The work itself on all of the work we've contracted Wilber's for has been terrific. Also want to mention, there's tons of little things contractors can do -- just to be helpful and great. For example, the crawl space in our garage was filled with random stuff. Barrels, dairy crates, coolers, old dish racks. It's the kind of thing that isn't in a contract, but the guys carefully brought it all down, and helped us sort out and set aside anything we'd want to keep. In the middle of the job, I pulled out shelving units in the garage from the previous owner, and when the team cleaned up the site -- which they did quickly and thoroughly -- they loaded all of that shelving wreckage (lots of it), into the dump truck. Once we complete this work on our garage, this will be the third project we've done with Wilber's. I have every expectation that they'll be our first call on the various work we'll need to do going forward."

"Best home Improvement service I ever use"

"Our experience with Indigo Construction was very pleasing. They recently completed major repairs in our home, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. The owner, Ryan, was incredibly professional, honest, and easy to work with from start to finish. His communication was excellent, and the quality of craftsmanship was outstanding. Ryan and his team paid close attention to the details and left everything spotless when the job was done. We highly recommend Indigo Construction and will absolutely be using them for all our future projects!"

"Alex was thorough. They were flexible due weather delays on the roof repairs."

"Tony and Team did a great job. We look forward to working with them on additional home projects. I will certainly recommend Tony to friends and family. Best, Chris and Nancy"

BUYER BEWARE.  I hate long reviews...but I wish someone rang the warning bell with a review of their experiences before we used Ernest & Sons.

To be fair In the end the job was done--but at what cost?  We worked with Jose a few years back to replace our driveway.  Jose and team did an excellent job.  So when we wanted to have our patio and walkway done we called Ernest and sons again.  This time we dealt with Ernest.  Initially he was nice and helpful showing me other patios completed.  We were very specific on timing to finish the project he was in agreement understanding weather delays could impact the completion. 

Once the contract was signed ...communications on their side stopped.  We had to call several times to see when the project would start. Once the job started the guys on site were nice but they did not speak much English and there no project manager to check in to see how things were going. 



When the job was done there was light rain and we noticed pools of water on the patio.  I put paper cups in the standing water and took pictures.  I contacted Ernest he came out and never conceded there was a problem as he looked at the standing water.  However he sent a crew back (again we had not paid yet) to remove the pavers and ensure it was level. They removed pavers in different areas 5 TIMES to level the patio.  While I truly appreciate their efforts...why didn't the first crew simply get it right.

DAMAGES TO OUR YARD AND NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOR.  In the process of building our patio they drove trucks onto our yard

and the neighbors damaging both yards.  I immediately took pictures and called Ernest--he assured me all damages would be taken care of.  When the job was complete his guys put seeds down and we paid in full.  However almost a month later there were only spots of grass and both yards still damaged.

I called again sent more pictures and he sent another crew that told my husband they were putting  down the 'good stuff this time' (really). We watered the lawns twice a day same as before...the damage is still there are now we have to pay out of pocket to fix our lawn and our neighbors! 



ICING ON THE CAKE.  Company called and asked if Ernest could bring a potential customer to see the patio. My husband agreed assuming he could talk to Ernest about damages.  Ernest was no show...they gave the prospects our address...and to our surprise two strangers walked into our backyard without even ringing the doorbell. I do not fault the couple but Ernest and Sons for handling this entire job so unprofessionally.

If you still choose to use this merchant ...good luck and get in writing how damaged will be handled.

"My wife and I were on a tight schedule after purchasing our first home. We were moving to NJ from the city and had limited time to renovate our home due to our apartment lease expiration. Lima Contracting was able to complete all of our task list and MORE in the amount of time that other contractors said they could not. Lionel, Rob and their crew worked tirelessly to make our first home perfect for us. After the 2-month job was completed, we couldn't have been happier. The house that we bought was gone and what was left, was ours.
