J&D Contracting may be the answer to your prayers if your Crofton home needs a face-lift or a complete makeover - or anything in between.

Let's face it... Crofton is an "established neighborhood" - code for "older" (and better). Most of us have a list of projects on our wish-list, ranging from an exterior paint job to building a new deck, from kitchen and bath updating to finishing (or re-finishing) the basement.
In my household, we have always been do-it-yourselfers - My husband Larry has been known to build a screened-in porch, fireplace, attic bedroom, and more. Frankly, one of the reasons for NOT hiring a contractor was the fact that we didn't know who to call, and couldn't imagine how expensive it might be to have the work done.
That was before we got to know Jimmy Furr and Dave Ramsey, the principals at J&D Contracting. Now that we do know who to call, we have them on speed-dial.

My daughter Susan is the one who discovered J&D Contracting when she was the House Director for Delta Delta Delta at the University of Maryland, College Park. The house was a 1930-era home that had been band-aided together for decades. As a Tri-Delta member, Susan had a special love for the house and spent five years there working with the Executive Office and local House Corps members to fix years of neglect. J&D Contracting oversaw most of that work, and we never ceased to be amazed at the quality of their workmanship, their professionalism, and their fair pricing.
It wasn't long before I began referring Jimmy & Dave to my real estate clients - Sellers hired them for home-inspection repairs and buyers chose them for both major and minor improvements. Over the past 7 or 8 years, I've never heard anything but rave reviews for J&D Contracting.
I'd hire J&D Contracting again for any work in my home, and I'm happy to provide a reference for them. At left is a picture of the updated bath they completed at my house in May. This wasn't a simple case of replacing fixtures - we utilized hall and closet space to expand the bathroom, removed decades of old wallpaper, installed new tile, etc., and I couldn't be happier with the results. A few weeks later we called them again to strip wallpaper from our stairway and install a new railing (see above photo). Before they moved on to their next job, for another homeowner in Crofton, they installed new crown molding in our living room.
Jimmy and Dave and their crew are so pleasant to have around, we really missed them when the work was complete. But I think we'll find something else... we always do!
To contact J&D Contracting, call Jimmy at (301)440-8581. He'll come out to talk to you and see what you want or need and get back to you promptly with a detailed written proposal.

Margaret...super job...did they offer to remodel your home for free after such marketing? LOL...
with smiles,
Bo in Yukon
Bo - I'll have to send your suggestion to them! LOL. Seriously, I tell everyone about them... they're really great guys and do a wonderful job at a fair price.
Margaret, this is a wonderful testimonial for J&D.......makes me wish they were a little more convenient to Alabama. Jimmy and Dave will love this review!
What a great recommendation. I wish they worked our market I would hire them for my projects.
Anne, It's hard to find anyone like them. I'm very lucky that we did!
Terry and Bonnie - They do work for a lot of real estate agents in this area, and maybe this will help them pick up a few more.
Margaret,
Knowing the best company to call when repairs and/or renovations are needed is so important!
I need a facelift and a makeover! Can they help me?
Great local post! I just did one about my local mechanic...same thing...awesome work at an even more awesome price!
I'm sure your testimonial will be of great help to them!
Cynthia, thanks for your comment. I've seen my daughter struggle to find reliable contractors since she moved to Texas, after five years of relying on J&D.
Thom, I think you're beyond help! I'll try to catch up on your local posts and others when I get home from vacation.
