    I highly recommend Johansen General Contracting for even the most custom jobs. We had a 50 year old wall oven, and when the door broke off, we had no idea how to fix it. We called John, and he came up with some solutions. We explained that the kitchen is not ready for a full overhaul but we need a simple and inexpensive fix. He laid out a couple of options and estimates. They were absolutely reasonable considering the times we are living in, and how expensive everything is. As you can see in the photos, it was a very custom job, done in and day and a half. We have a new stove and more closet space than we had before. Thank you John. When we remodel, you’ll be our first...read full review

    Long overdue review but I would absolutely recommend Johansen General Contracting to anyone looking for reputable work that won’t break the bank. John has worked on my property about 3 or 4 times now. Each time his team does superb work, works quick, cleans up properly after themselves, and overall set their clients up for success. John has worked with me to formulate a plan of attack on multiple projects and he also takes the time to educate me. All while charging fair prices and not taking advantage. 10/10 recommend.

    Shortly after my wife and I bought our first house, we identified certain items requiring redress and were not sure where to start. A trusted friend of ours recommended I reach out to John for some advice. You'd think from our first interaction that I'd known John for years--he spent a considerable amount of time talking to me and offered to come by in person as soon as he was free to evaluate what needed to be done and help us make a plan. True to his word, John came by shortly after we spoke and took his time going from room to room, both listening to our concerns and questions, as well as making observations of his own. We came up with a plan in multiple parts. Each was soon realized and within a month, we'd addressed more then half of the items we wanted addressed. In the months that followed, we continued to call John for projects or advice on what projects were worthwhile, if at all. He became (and remains--more on that later) our go to contractor. These projects ranged from very small to mid-sized, and he always made time in his schedule for us between home visits to plan, phone calls to discuss scope or cost, and emails back and forth to iron out scopes of work and details. The key takeaway here is that John was always very accessible and communication was constant. As the seasons changed, so did our projects and associated needs. John always made it work. We recently had a sudden and stressful water issue in our bedroom. John had a contact for water remediation and got us in touch right away, and made sure his guys were on site immediately after so we had a wall up as soon as possible. Interspersed throughout all of the above, and other projects, we had plumbing and electrical needs. John has contacts for both, but knew we had professionals in those fields we know and liked to work with as well. John never pressured us to use his contacts and was always willing to work with whoever we wanted to, stressing our comfort and peace of mind with every job. We are actively working with John on several items, small and large, and our positive experience remains consistent. John's crew, which we have met many times, is fantastic. They are polite, hard working, and always showed up a few minutes early. They have always been respectful of our home and property and clean up after themselves. John's approach to jobs, scopes of work, and costs has always been extremely transparent and in our view, very fair. We have never felt overcharged or strung along and the handful of times we raised cost concerns, John worked with us to alleviate them as much as possible. John had never pushed us into spending more money than we wanted, or needed to. He's talked us out of certain projects in favor of a more cost effective options, or not pursuing them at all for practical reasons. As both a person and professional, John is kind, understanding, and thoughtful. He has never brushed off our concerns and explained things as many times as needed to make us comfortable. He was always available for questions--even when he didn't need to be. He has gone out of his way numerous times to resolve small issues that were on our minds solely for the sake of alleviating our concerns more quickly. My wife and I have come to view John as a dear friend and are very grateful to have him in our lives. Our oldest son loves construction vehicles, tools, and big trucks. Of course, John has many trucks to the delight of our son, who talks about him all the time. Every truck we see is "John's truck" and he is ecstatic when he sees him. He pretends to fix things around the house with a toy toolset and tool belt--which John gave him for his birthday. This was one of many, many kindnesses John has shown our son, and you can tell how much our son values his interactions with John. Knowing firsthand how stressful anything construction/house related can be, it is immeasurably valuable to have someone reliable and honest to work with, and we are so fortunate to have found that with John and his crew. We cannot recommen
