Our insurance company chose JL Fox for us, and I am so glad. Ian was our point person and was prompt, communicative & clear about everything to expect from timeline, complications, materials etc. He sent a two-man crew, Ralph & Randy who were on time, experienced & did quality work for us. They gave us great advice about preventing this type of project in the future (caused by water damage) & really went above and beyond to ensure the repair to our subfloor was done well and would last. Ralph even gave me advice about another project I had in the works. After weeks of trying to solve this water problem, JL Fox was the easiest phase. Once Ian had our materials for us, this work was done in two days & was better than before the damage. Highly recommend.

We used J.L. Fox to help us restore our bathroom after some flooding/water damage. Megan was a huge asset in designing our bathroom and really took her time to help us find exactly what we were looking for! Both Ian and Megan were great at communicating and keeping us updated through schedule changes with the subcontractors and any materials that were delayed. We were impressed with the craftsmanship of work that was done and the professionalism of everyone that came into our home. I am somewhat of a perfectionist and I am very happy with our bathroom-It's beautiful!

This was truly one of the best experiences working with a restoration and remodel company. It was truly a relief to be able to have it all in one place and not having to deal with multiple companies to tear out water damaged floors and cabinets and then restore the kitchen and floors. This was also the first time of having to restore and remodel a whole kitchen by choice since everything including the floors, some cabinets, countertops, and backsplash were all being torn out and replaced with new. We decided to upgrade our kitchen in the process. It was incredibly helpful and easy working with Ryan, their Project Manager and Madison, their interior designer to create a new layout and selections for the remodel. Then Ryan kept us updated and well informed of the schedule of getting everything ordered, delivered, and the whole process from start of the destruction to completion. It was a very smooth process even without having a fully functioning kitchen for about a month. The results are far beyond my expectations. The team of contractors that came in were all respectable, friendly, and worked in a timely manner. We have worked with a lot of contractors and repair companies in the past while owning three homes and with being a military family and this is by far the best experience. We look forward to working with JL Fox again for repairs or remodeling work in our home.

I highly recommend JL Fox for any construction or restoration needs. I had water damage due to neglect from a previous company's work. It ruined my hardwood floors down my hallway and the drywall and floors in my kitchen and bathroom, plus a kitchen cabinet and bathroom vanity sink. Easton and his great crew did a fantastic job fixing everything that was damaged, and they repainted the walls and sanded and restored all my hardwood floors throughout my house to match the hallway. They gave new life to these 60+ year old floors. Plus, they did it all within 3 weeks. I am truly impressed.

In July a tree crashed into our garage and did significant damage. Thank goodness our insurance company recommended JL Fox and that we got Courtland as our contractor. We were so impressed with this company every step of the way- from Kelsey taking the time to walk us through the process and getting everything handled for our insurance to Courtland being awesome every step of the way. He was professional, friendly, and made sure we knew what was happening and that we were happy with the work. We can’t say enough good things about Courtland and this company. If we do work to our house ever again, JL Fox will be our first call. Can’t recommend them enough!!!!! And ask for Courtland. Thank you JL Fox for turning a horrible situation into a wonderful experience.

I experienced water damage in the home and JL Fox was hired to complete work. They’ve done an exceptional job and even more remarkable is how friendly and professional everyone has been. I could trust everyone when leaving house. Someone even brought my trash bin up from the street without asking! Everyone stopped to answer any questions if needed. Gave me tips to maintain upgrades. Would hire again if needed! Ralph and Cameron were exceptionally helpful in completing the bathroom work. The kitchen cabinet paint job was the best it’s ever been - a job done right! So many things to compliment. If you’re in need of- this is a great company to work with.

We found JL Fox as they were recommended and a preferred contractor with AllState. We had water damage and went through insurance. We got several bids and were pleased by the General Contractor Ian. He was thorough in taking measurements and pictures. He accurately planned a project that almost went through without a hitch which is unheard of. We had to remove kitchen counters, sink and cabinets, and replace a wall and ceiling in the basement. There was a problem with plumbing that pushed completion back only three business days. Ian was great at planning and communicating. Megan the designer who helped pick countertops was fantastic. The painters produced a beautiful product. I felt like the project was a great value. Would definitely use again.
