Im now retired and wanted to get a some-what…read morecomplicated job done in a manner that was above reproach, and completed within a reasonable period of time. Im not from the area so off I went to get prices. I went through a few contractors that I was not at all comfortable with,and I shutdown with in a matter of minutes. J Lorton was next on my list, I called and quickly realized I was talking to a Pro, I felt comfortable and felt this job can and will work out ---we were on the same page. Trust me when I say Ive seen and heard it all and when I feel honesty I know it. If your in need of a 1st Class Builder give J Lorton a call, the worst thing that can happen is you will see how a good builder handles things.

The owner came over 2 hours later, climbed on the roof and took the measurements all while it was raining. We agreed on a great price and 3 days later when we had the only sunny day he replaced the whole roof. Great job and the work quality is excellent. He even went above and beyond by replacing 10 sheets of rotten plywood, installing new flashing on a leaking window, added flashing to my chimney and even placed new chimney caps for me.
