I rarely write long reviews, but JMK Contractor deserves every word because they just finished building our 5,400 sq ft ground-up custom home in Coral Gables and the entire experience was flawless from start to finish. We interviewed five different general contractors specializing in Coral Gables new construction before choosing JMK, and I'm so glad we did. Jorge and his team stood out immediately - they actually listened to what we wanted (modern Mediterranean style with an open-concept layout, impact glass throughout, smart home integration, summer kitchen, and a resort-style pool). No upselling, no cutting corners, just honest advice on how to get the luxury new construction home we dreamed of while staying within budget. Timeline & Communication: They broke ground in February 2025 and handed us the keys exactly 17 months later - on the day they originally promised, even with all the rain we had this year. Weekly updates with photos, budget reports, and schedule forecasts kept us in the loop. Anytime Coral Gables building department threw a curveball (which happens a lot here), JMK handled it immediately. Quality of Work: * Foundation and slab: engineered perfectly for our high water table area * Framing: true and level - you can roll a marble across the second floor and it doesn't move * Impact windows & doors: PGT WinGuard aluminum, installed dead-level with perfect sealing * Roof: new Ludovici clay barrel tiles that match the Coral Gables historic aesthetic perfectly * Finishes: Level 5 smooth walls, custom rift-cut white oak cabinetry, quartzite counters, Sub-Zero/Wolf appliances - everything is magazine-worthy The subcontractors they use are clearly the A-team: electricians who actually label every single circuit, plumbers who pressure-test every line twice, tile guys who spend an extra day just making sure every grout joint is perfect. Budget & Transparency: We ended up $23k over our original $2.4M contract, but every single change order was because WE upgraded something (added the wine room, upgraded pool equipment, etc.). JMK provided detailed breakdowns and never once tried to sneak anything in. If you're looking for a reputable, licensed, and insured general contractor for new home construction in Coral Gables, Coconut Grove, Pinecrest, or anywhere in Miami - stop searching. JMK Contractor is the real deal. Our house appraised $600k+ over construction cost the week we got the CO, which says everything. Thank you Lanyon, Mehdi, and the entire JMK crew for building our family's forever home. We love it more every single day! Highly recommend - 100% worth 5 stars. read more

I had an excellent experience working with JMK Contractor on a residential new construction project in Miami. From pre-construction planning through execution, their team demonstrated a high level of professionalism, organization, and technical expertise. JMK Contractor truly understands the complexities of ground-up residential construction, including permitting, inspections, scheduling trades, and coordinating architects and engineers. Communication was clear and proactive at every stage, which made a huge difference on a project with many moving parts. They were transparent about timelines, costs, and scope, and they handled challenges efficiently without cutting corners. What sets them apart from other Miami general contractors is their attention to detail and commitment to quality. Every phase of construction--from foundation and framing to mechanical systems and finishes--was completed to code and with a strong focus on long-term durability. Their knowledge of local building codes and experience with residential new construction in South Florida was evident throughout the process. The project was well managed, clean, and organized, and the team maintained a professional job site at all times. If you're looking for a reliable contractor for custom home construction, new home builds, or large-scale residential projects in Miami, JMK Contractor is a company you can trust. I would highly recommend JMK Contractor to homeowners, developers, or investors seeking a dependable new construction contractor in Miami who delivers quality work and peace of mind. read more

I had JMK Contractor build a new home for me in Coral Gables, and the entire experience exceeded my expectations.

We reached out to JMK Contractor for remodeling our bathrooms. They responded quickly and were able to be at our home whenever we were available. We are extremely happy with the attention to detail and the approach they took when it came to designing the bathrooms. One of the major things I noticed quickly and enjoyed was that they had a good grasp on what we wanted and suggested good ideas. They were also honest to us when they thought we has a not so good idea and always suggested an alternative. I travel a lot so Fuad used emails and messages to show me catalogs and photos of products to make my decisions easier while on the road. Fuad personally oversaw the project and was able to get the job done in very good time. I definitely would recommend JMK Contractor to any one considering doing any type of remodeling. Big or small they always seem to enjoy what they are doing and you can tell they care for the work that they do. Thank you JMK. read more

I couldn't commend JMK Contractor enough for their incredible team and exceptional work. From everything you hear about contractors- you'd think a home renovation is bound to make you want to pull your hair out at some point, but we got lucky with these guys. This was a first for us so we didn't know what to expect, but we felt impressed with how well the documentation and coordination between engineers, the city, and our neighborhood HOA was handled by Ioana- and the expertise of our project management and execution by Edwin. We decided to change a couple of finishes along the way and were so grateful that the team worked with us on those change orders to make our vision turn into a reality. Including a custom barn door, using recycled wood from our floors. Love it! We couldn't be happier with how our place looks and would be happy to recommend JMK to others. read more

I recently hired JMK Contractor to build an addition for my home in Coral Gables, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From day one, their team was incredibly responsive -- always quick to answer questions, provide updates, and make sure every detail was handled properly. The quality of their work is top-notch, with excellent craftsmanship and attention to detail throughout. What really stood out was their on-time guarantee -- they stayed right on schedule, exactly as promised, which is rare in construction. The project was completed smoothly and the finished space looks amazing. I'd highly recommend JMK Contractor to anyone looking for a reliable, professional team that truly delivers on both quality and service. It's a good value for the price. We paid $350 per square foot for our addition with high end finishes. read more

We could not be happier with the outcome of our project. We had an extensive renovation of a one-bedroom apartment including demolition of concrete walls, moving sinks, knocking out closets, adding laundry and several custom build cabinets. JMK delivered our vision perfectly, balancing both style and function. We had been warned that a renovation in South Beach would be met with delays and frustrations and that some renovations lasted up to 2 years. We were very pleased that the bulk of the renovation was done in 9 months and that the total renovation done within a year. Any issues we had along the way were worked out to our satisfaction. We were told by a few people in our building that they had not seen a renovation done to the caliber of our apartment and we are the envy of many in our building. Thanks JMK! read more

I have made several consultations on thermal insulation and natural ventilation for the remodeling of a single-family house for one of my relatives, and the truth is that I was surprised by the level of professionalism, speed, knowledge and detail with which they have advised me. They know what they are doing. For any questions that may arise I fully recommend their services, and my relative decided to do the work with them. They sent us examples of their work and we are sure that they will exceed our expectations. read more

2nd time I Have used JMK Contractor and again they always show up on time and do exactly what they say they are going to do. We updated one of the restrooms in one of our condos in Miami Beach and could not be more pleased with the workmanship and professionalism that JMK seems to always offer. We have two restrooms that need to be done and we decided to only get one done first to see how we like it. They are currently working on the second bathroom. read more

Love the JMK team. They were very professional. Wore a branded polos, masks, and came on time. I was happy with their estimate. They took a little longer to provide the estimate than I hoped but they delivered exactly on what they promised. I love the end result. Couldn't be happier. The site of the remodel (kitchen and bathroom) was left in great condition. Would do business with JMK again and highly recommend them. read more
