We had a great experience working with Jim and his crew. We had just purchased our home and needed the entire main floor and upstairs to be painted prior to moving in. Jim was able to accommodate us within short notice and his crew worked diligently and effectively over the course of 3 days to complete the job. It was especially critical that the work be completed timely as we had scheduled for the floors to be refinished after the painting. They were clean and meticulous with the work, making sure that all repairs to walls were done prior to painting. Everything we requested was executed exactly as we wanted and the communication was great and timely. We highly recommend J.F. Meyer for your home projects.

I want to thank Jim Meyer for the excellent job he performed in very difficult circumstances. He added on a historically correct front porch on our 100 year old Capitol Hill row home. He navigated through permitting and a very difficult mandatory security deposit situation that the Department of Transportation handed us.The end result was a beautiful porch that not only added value to our property but, made our very finnicky neighbors happy as well. If you want a job done well, on time and with a respect to a set budget JF Meyer is an excellent choice.

Jim has done several projects at my house in Washington, D.C. Jim always provided accurate estimates, performed the work exactly as promised, and met his deadlines. I was completely satisfied with Jim's work every single time. And I recommend him without qualification to my friends and colleagues!

I cannot say enough about Jim and his true understanding of and devotion to the "ART" of building. He is engaged, thorough and eager to share his wealth of knowledge about construction, and especially with regard to historic buildings. His crews are considerate of neighbors on tight urban sites, they clean up after the work day and, most importantly, they do work of a truly craftsman-like quality.

Jim Meyer offers straight-forward and honest quality workmanship that is above the “builder grade” services provided by most. They are not afraid to pursue creative work and approach it with a higher standard of care. They are always pleasant to work with as a company, and their subcontractors parallel the same work ethic.

I've been very happy with J.F. Meyer's work. I have hired them four times to work on our DC home. Three times for painting (both interior and exterior) and once for repair work after a flood. Straightforward and clear estimates and top quality workmanship from his whole team.

Jim is down to earth and does a professional job. He replaced a wood floor for me with reclaimed heart pine--just beautiful. You can trust him with a key to your house, and he will finish on time and on budget.

I have used Jim Meyer’s services for over 20 years. He has repaired and painted the exterior and extensive woodwork on my 100 year old stucco house. His company has rebuilt my front steps and installed oversized half round gutters with rain chains. The most recent project was a full first floor paint job including the expert patching of the ceilings and walls where my electrician took out the old knob and tube wiring. I had gaping holes in the original plaster that were repaired in a way that blended seamlessly. I trust that Jim and his team will always do an excellent job.Services: Paint indoors, Refurbishment, Exterior painting, Remodeling, Drywall repair

We have had Jim Meyer and his team do 3 different projects in our 1906 cooperative. Painting, installing a soundproof wall on a party wall, and a complete gut renovation of the bathroom. While Jim is not the cheapest contractor around, I believe you get what you pay for and the work has been very high quality. Jim is very honest - if he doesn't think something will work, he'll tell you, and why. On the infrequent occasion that something wasn't done correctly, he sent his crew back to fix/repair. As with any contractor, there is always something that isn't exactly as planned, but my experience is that every single contractor will miss something, so I haven't deducted any stars for that! Very responsive by phone and email, with good communication and transparency on costs. I would highly recommend, especially if you are in a historic building.

Jim Meyer has been our "go to" painter and contractor for the last 10 years. Our home is 117 years old, cedar shake with wood trim so our maintenance on a yearly basis is continuous. Jim and his crew always arrive when they say they will, complete the work in a timely fashion, they take the time to do the job correctly. For us, working with someone of such integrity is reassuring, I never worry about anything when Jim and crew are in charge.

Jim Meyer and his team have done interior/exterior carpentry, interior/exterior painting, and window replacement for us, beginning in the summer of 2016. We have, in every case, been pleased with the results. His prices are competitive with other well-regarded contractors in Washington, DC. The window replacement project mentioned above required DC historic district permitting and approval, and Jim knew how to get the paperwork and inspection details through the system efficiently. Jim has excellent rapport with his team, and there seems to be a level of mutual respect here that is lacking in many other small contracting firms. First class operation.

I've used Jim at two houses for inside painting and outside staining, painting, power washing, bad wood and siding repair and screening. His work has always been done right and on time. I found Jim to be easy to work with and very competent.

Jim Meyer listened to exactly what it was I wanted done to my home and was extremely helpful throughout the entire renovation process. I've been dealing with so many contractors for the past 5 years, and with Mr. Meyer I was finally able to breathe and trust him and his crew thoroughly. Highly recommend!

J.F. Meyer Construction Co., Inc. carried out a complex and major repair project for our Condo Building. All of the owners were pleased both with the process and final result. The project was done professionally and in a timely manner. All aspects of cost were carefully managed during the extent of the project. We will continue to go to J.F. Meyer for future work.

After installation of our elevator, Jim’s painting was the best we have had. He blended old paint with new without any seams showing.

I had a window converted into a door that would allow me direct access to my back porch. The estimate was reasonable, the timeline was consistent and the workmanship was outstanding. Very pleased with my results.
