5 out of 5 stars
Most reasonable and comprehensive quote and done to budget. I wanted a few extra things done along the way and his quotes for these extra things where always reasonable. Jake slowly and diligently took me through the contract before signing, which I appreciated and think is important.
5 out of 5 stars
Jake came to us with a good reputation and so we were happy to be the first client of Jake Ryan Building and Construction. Our project went really well, communication was good, no surprises and we always knew what was happening. Being informed of plans, sub-contractor works and overall schedules is so important as were living in our home as it was renovated around us.
5 out of 5 stars
Quality, costs and time are the legs that a project stands on, and Jake nailed all three. Excellent quality, obtained by selecting excellent suppliers and subbies. Costs well controlled by good administration and documentation. Time managed by good planning and staying in front of events.
5 out of 5 stars
In all, a really excellent outcome for both us and Jake. We have another project coming up; hopefully he can fit us in to his schedule
