    "Eric & Allen designed and built a beautiful, waterproof deck with a cedar handrail on the second-story of our old (1908) bungalow. They replaced the upstairs windows with french doors, integrating them perfectly with the deck and siding. Other contractors said that the project couldn't be done. The attention to detail, integrity, quality of work, and value were all excellent. Highly recommended."

    "Replacement 830 sq ft driveway for $9400 J. A. Holland construction gave me a new amazing, perfect, flawless driveway of 830sqft for $9400. This included a drainage system under the driveway from gutter downspouts detouring water away from the driveway, a light grey tint added to the concrete, demo removing the old driveway, correcting a slope, inspections, the concrete and a finish with a brushed texture. Reasons why I chose this company out of 6 bidders: 1. By checking CCB license through Oregon Construction Contractors Board using google. Thomas Holland, owner, has had the same license, unblemished, for over 10 years. Some of the others had their license for less than a year or had consumer complaints, problems attached to their license. 2. Thomas has an eye for potential problems and was the only one to suggest a drainage system under the driveway to collect water from the gutter of this old home. 3. Thomas does the work along with his crew, very important to me as I have had bad experiences with the contractor who has multiple jobs, sends a crew unsupervised. Example: One plumber decided he was not going to do a section of plumbing, signed off the job and had I not been there reporting him, that section of plumbing I paid for would have not been done. 4. I found over 10 great 'real' reviews on J.A. Holland Construction. could find no reviews or very little on the other bidders. 5. First impression of Thomas is an all around 'good' guy, straight forward, no phony sales pitch. 6. The price. Thomas came in low, tied exactly with another low bid, and this great price with the under driveway drainage system. The job: Demo: Took only 2 days and what a performance as neighbors also watched in awe, the street lined with heavy machinery in order of use and so organized as as the old concrete was lifted, put in the vehicle to be disposed of, gravel was put in place. Thomas is a master of heavy vehicle machinery, used a generous amount of gravel and had the job cleaned up by 5pm both days. 2. Forms installed, passed inspection. 3. The concrete pour was just as smooth and also passed inspection without incident. On one walkway I had done by another company, very little gravel was used and I noticed later a slight yellowish tan stain had appeared, found none of this with the work from Thomas, and believe it is because of the generous layer of gravel. In fact, I can not find one irregularity in the concrete."

    "The project was the excavation and leveling of around 700 cubic yards of soil over 8000sf of land. He cut and filled a steep slope into a nice 1-2% slope ideal for a sports/play field. Definitely not a small project and he was able to handle it with ease. He showed up early, stayed late and problem solved to keep the project within the timeline and under budget. His communication was open and consistent. He kept checking in to make sure he was delivering the project that we wanted. Not a fly-by-nighter. You can tell he takes pride in his work. As of writing this I have already recommended him to a friend."

    "Hi, to all those potential new customers. I am here to tell you that I am very impressed with Concrete By Design. They totally get a 10+. George the owner not only was awesome to work with. He came to the rescue for me on a new curb that was poured by some else that was totally messed up. I was in a huge pickle to get it replaced and his team got it put in and passed inspection. Then 6 months later I hired Concrete By Design again to do 3 new driveway pads and a 30'L sidewalk. Same wonderful service and exceptional workmanship. Through out the entire project, George answered all my questions promptly. His whole team is #1 in my book. I would never hesitate to hire Concrete By Design again in the future. Thank you George, Brandon and the rest of the team. Verna"

    "James is awesome! Knowledgeable and experienced, he is is a very efficient, reliable, hard worker with a hard-working crew. James' communication was impeccable, keeping me in the loop every day with his agenda, which he reliably completed in a very timely manner. He and his crew removed all four trees and stumps, and replanted the area with laurel hedges, within a matter of a couple of days. I would hire him again in a heartbeat. I highly recommend JBC Customs, LLC--true professionals!"

    "Daniel was awesome to work with. He came out and provided a solid estimate in a timely fashion. We had an unexpected sprinkler line that was in the middle of our excavation area and he took care of that. He also provided the materials for a retaining wall that we hadn't initially planned for, and he added that to the project scope without issue. I will definitely reach out to Daniel if we have another project like this one."
