What Do Our Clients Say?

Judy E.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Jim and his crew rebuilt our front steps to include a small deck with a wrought iron railing. It looks better than I could have even imagined and the quality is superb.

They then texturized, primed and painted the master bath. Another fantastic job!

I highly recommend Big Jim’s Home Repair!

Andrew H.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Jim and his team are most excellent. They finished a lot of projects previous handymen left mid job. A small project turned into a large project as more dry rot was exposed but Jim was very straightforward and upfront about the cost and stayed within the quote. We will be having them back again.

Robert D.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This is a review 7 years after the fact. In 2014, Jim and his crew replaced all the siding, repaired roofing, and painted my house. After 7 years, everything still looks great and keeps out all the weather - no leaks, no problems, no complaints. Big Jims is a firm you can trust to do your job right the first time, so you know it will go the distance. Thanks again to Jim for a job well done, and time-tested.
