Jay provided a range of services for my 1907 home renovation project in 2023, including contracting & oversight, finishing carpentry, kitchen & bathroom cabinet installation, remediation of existing woodwork, custom woodwork, installing a new shower & shower doors, as well as some outside repairs.
Jay is very skilled, efficient and an excellent problem solver. I felt confident in his recommendations, and appreciated the responsiveness of the trades (plumbers, electricians) he works with.
Overall, I am extremely satisfied with the results and wouldn’t hesitate to use his services again in the future.
Jay renovated two of my bathrooms recently as well as my kitchen 4 years prior. His work is meticulous and thorough every time he renovated a room in my home. I appreciate his communication and planning with the other sub trades and how thoughtful he is in the planning stages. A pleasure to work with!
We really liked working with Jay. His crews of contractors were on time and polite. All of them were very professional and the quality was top notch. Jay is a stickler for details and plans everything out with great detail. He asks a lot of questions to tease out all problems before he starts the build. Jay keeps a close on on the progress and quality. He makes sure everything is completed to perfection. We partnered with designer Rita Edwards of Chambre and Cie to help with design and lay out. I think Jay and Rita made a good team. We now have a stunning tiled bathroom spa thanks to Jay. It really is an oasis and has added value to our home. I totally recommend Jay and his crews of wonderful contractors.
We have only good things to say about Jay and his team. The work was done professionally and the results are fantastic.
Jay always let's you know what to expect in terms of the scope of work and timelines. He is very attentive to details and always welcomes questions, input, and requests. In addition, we actually found it a pleasure to interact with him on an almost daily basis during the renovations. All the trades people he brought in were also very courteous, professional, and excellent at their trades.
We look forward to working with him on further projects for our house.
We used JD construction to totally renovate our Condo in Victoria. This involved new Kitchen, new bathrooms with conversion to showers, design and build a TV / fire place feature wall, removal of popcorn ceilings, wide plank flooring install etc. In short it was a full renovation. Jay took on the project as General Contractor and worked with the trade guys on his roster who were skilled and reliable people. The project was complicated because we were resident in the US at the time so inspections and site briefings were done remotely but Jay's diligence, participation and valued advice on all aspects of the renovation gave us a spectacular conversion which has produced many compliments since its completion. We would not hesitate to recommend JD construction to anyone contemplating renovations of this nature.
Highly satisfied with the completed project. Impressed with the high quality of work: great attention to detail, very good clean up, and all done on time. Appreciated Jay's communication skills from estimate to completion. He is experienced, trust worthy, and meticulous. Highly recommend.
The best part of my kitchen renovation project was having Jay as my general contractor. He starts by carefully covering hardwood floors and enclosing the area to keep dust out of the rest of the condo. He thinks through each step, and problems that arise, so what he does works out well. He has very good connections with sub-trades so they are available when needed. Given the current situation with materials often being delayed, Jay is excellent with scheduling multiple projects as materials arrive. Jay came highly recommended to me, and I would like to pass that excellent recommendation on to his next potential client.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for performing the transformation of our raw and dark unfinished basement, stuck in the late 40s, into the light modern and airy structured space it is today. You’re a great general contractor and we’re grateful for your tremendous help in finding the subtrades, which were also outstanding during these very difficult times. You made it possible.
Your timeliness in starting the project and delivering the finished product was amazingly fast. When necessary, you came up with innovative solutions. We are grateful for your mindful and sensitivity to our strict budget. The excellent quality of your work particularly the framing did not go unnoticed by the drywallers! In fact, you made their job that much easier.
We couldn’t be happier with the results. Thanks Jay!

Jay was recommended by our designer and has turned out to be an excellent partner in our renovations. He took excellent care of our property, ensuring that our hardwood floors were protected in all work areas. He coordinates an integrated team of high-calibre tradespeople who are available to support the work - he and they are always on time and do the high quality work as scheduled, or advise us in advance if there may be a delay. Jay is receptive to client input, and has shown himself to a creative problem solver in dealing with unexpected challenges related to some of our renovation work. We would strongly recommend him as a project manager and general contractor.
