If you're looking for great quality work, from an honest and reliable person, look no further.Working with Jack, from Strong Builders, is a very straight-forward process. You tell him your needs, and he'll do everything and explain every detail along the way. He is a professional in every sense of the word. I've worked with other contractors who would take days off, or work half-days, who wouldn't return your phone calls or texts for multiple days. Jack made this process headache-free and I'm really happy with the result, the staircase we replaced looks amazing! Could I have found someone who would have done the work slightly cheaper? Probably. But I would be willing to bet anything that the finished product would not look as good and that it would have been a miserable process. I think I got more than my money's worth by hiring Jack, and I would not hesitate to do so again for the next project. Highly recommended!

If you are looking for quality workmanship, experience, someone highly knowledgeable with an unusually broad skill set that will work hard, pay attention to details and make sure the job is done right, call Jack at Strong Builders. If on the other hand you want poor workmanship, poor quality, workers with a bad attitude and a lack of experience, look elsewhere. We had a number of projects ranging from putting in dropped ceilings, a new doorway, insulating and putting up sheetrock on walls, and replacing large areas of ceilings that had been ripped out during mold and water damage remediation, and more. One of the things that most impressed us was his ability to not only grasp what we wanted done, but to have a better grasp of it than we did. He repaired formerly shoddy work to bring everything up to code. In every way, he, and the results, exceeded our expectations. After discussing what we wanted we received a detailed, itemized quote, stating everything he would be doing and the specific materials he would be using, right down to how many coats of spackle would be used and sanded. We have had numerous quotes for work before, but none this well detailed. We knew how much sheet rock, paint, molding, how many ceiling tiles and even how much time he would need for prep before we signed a contract. Pros: • Excellent work ethic • Reliable, returned phone calls, always let us know when he would be working and if something came up and he had to change plans we were always kept informed. • Trustworthy, I was very comfortable having him work in my home even when no one was home. • Left all work areas clean and tidy. • Respectful, if we made a request he never questioned it. As an example, we have several dogs, one of which is a recent rescue and is still very much a flight risk. Jack was aware of this and went to great lengths to not frighten her and to make sure that she did not have a chance to get loose. • Above all, quality work and an excellent eye for detail. We had no idea that what we were asking for would look so amazing! Cons: • None that I am aware of Would we hire Strong Builders again? Definitely, and we are looking forward to doing so again.

I changed the garage to living space (kitchen, full bathroom, dinning room) and Jack did super excellent job .... everything was done as planned on time and with exact price that was estimated. Jack does the pricing so precise and all his pricing are very well within the normal range and nothing is over priced at all. Timing, is also planned correctly and and takes everything in consideration ... and he does not leave the work site until he finish the work that is scheduled to be done for that day. Jack does the job as it is for himself ..... no one can ask for better performance.

We could not have asked for better service, it was above and beyond our expectations. We would highly recommend Strong Builders for any projects you might have. Everything was done professionally from the first time we met with Jack to the time our new deck was built. Jack is very responsive and after seeing the quality of work that he does he's now very respected.

We decided to renovate one of our bathrooms that was in desperate need of an update. We engaged with several contractors to get an idea as to cost, start date, materials used, and related information. We narrowed down our search to Strong Builders and another contractor and checked references. Luckily, we went with Strong builders. Our experience with Strong was outstanding. The job started on time, was within budget, the work site was cleaned up every day, Strong coordinated the inspections, subcontractors and material delivery so that there were no delays in the work schedule. Jack Whealan is a seasoned professional and perfectionist and the quality of the workmanship exceeded our expectations. We have several other projects on the to do list for 2016-2017 and we are going to use Strong Builders. We would recommend that if you are looking for a contractor go with Strong. You will not be disappointed.

Jack with Strong Builders did an exceptional job from start to finish. He is responsive, reliable, and extremely knowledgeable. He pays great attention to detail, follows through on what he says he will do, and strives to help keep your costs down while doing a quality job. A true professional. Lastly, this should tell you all you need to know: we already plan on hiring him again to do more work on our house.

Cabinet Repair- Deck Repair- Snow Damage Repair We had some damage from the winter that we didn't realize until we had our granite countertops installed. They cracked twice! We started to dig deeper to find a problem. We realized that our deck was pulling away from the house and a floor joist was bumping up into the kitchen making our cabinets uneven. We got several quotes from contractors. Jack was the ONLY contractor that discussed ways to solve the problem, so it wouldn't happen again next winter! He took his time, he looked outside, inside, under and over. He took pictures as well. We knew we were going to hire him even before we received the estimate. We were surprised when his estimate was the lowest! Strong Builders outlined the remedy for our situation which included pulling the deck back towards the house, reinforcing the floor joists with better bolts, re-leveling our kitchen cabinets, digging new footings for our deck and reinforcing our deck. All of this was done with painstaking care!. Each and every kitchen cabinet needed to be leveled by creating small pieces of wood at varying angles to create an overall level surface. This looked impossible to me! Other contractors told us we needed new cabinets because it wasn't worth it to fix. Jack worked with our granite company personally to be sure he understood what they said the problem was. Jack does not try to up-sell you either. He is highly professional in the fact that he fixes what needs fixing and works around what is structurally sound. When he started work, I was a little worried about my basement rug getting dirty, but to my surprise- Jack covered the entire area where he was working. He is a very clean worker and takes pride in his work. We are so happy to know that going into this winter, we will not experience the same problem. We are thrilled to have our kitchen counters installed! When we need more work done at our home, we will definitely hire Jack and Strong Builders! (Northboro)

I recently hired Jack to gut/remodel my kitchen, bath, living, and laundry rooms, as well as some other home repairs. I would categorize Jack as professional, reliable, honest, and responsible; and he was respectful of my needs throughout the project. He provided detailed estimates and worked within my budget without any surprises. He exceeded my expectations and took pride in his work. I was extremely satisfied with the quality of the renovation and I have gotten great feedback from family and friends.
