Real feedback from property owners who trusted JCM Restoration with their restoration projects.
"James is amazing! He went above and beyond and made sure the job was done right. We had a leaky roof and gutter problem that had been there from previous poor craftsmanship. There was black mold and James did not stop until the job was done. Even now that the job is complete we know we can give James a call. Truly appreciate the hard work."
"James Sanford, as the actual contractor servicing my need for termite damage repair, performed an outstanding job to my total satisfaction. Did a great job of cleaning up after himself. There was an up-front understanding from the beginning of what would be involved, total cost, and was in writing pending my signature."
"I found James on Angie's List and he was the first to call me. It was a pleasure doing business with him due to the fact that he was professional and considerate throughout the entire process. God sent an angel when I and my husband was in dire need of professional water damage cleanup due to an HVAC installed incorrectly a year before. Don't look any further, contact James at JCM Restoration."
