However, I don't have as much time and need to make quicker progress than I'm able to make in my free time. I'm very critical of my own work, and knew it would be hard to find someone who cared about the details just as much. After a lot of googling, reading reviews like this one, looking at pictures of what was delivered and having discussions with James, he was obviously the clear front runner. Other good signs where how booked up with work he was, the detailed documentation with milestones, the clear and frequent conversations leading up to the work along with checking in once complete. > Not only did they exceed my expectations of a contractor, I've already decided to offload some of the future projects I planned to tackle in my own in order to free up my time, I need to hurry and get my jobs on his backlog! **★★★★★ — HU-230118165, Oct. 2022** > I asked James for help when the vinyl on my deck split open and (completely independently) one of the stairs leading up to the deck collapsed after rotting through. He was punctual, coming over to look at what needed to be done and coordinating with the work crews, and stayed in contact to ensure that I was happy with all the work being done. Even after the job was finished, James helped me by answering some unrelated questions about work I needed done. > > I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending James to anyone who needs work done on their house; if he can't help you himself, he'll put you in touch with someone else who can. **★★★★★ — HU-832864778, Dec. 2021** > This is an honest review as I used James Murphy’s services in November for renovations to my new house. He was very professional, work was done on time and in good quality. He is a decent person who can be relied upon. During the renovation my dad got sick and I didn’t come and check on the work as he is mindful and the work progressed as planned. **★★★★★ — MV Glass Point INC, May 2019** > It is an absolute pleasure working with J Murphy's Contracting ! Their attention to detail is really making our job much easier ! Thank you for the opportunity James -we are looking forward to be working again with you ! **★★★★★ — Jaime Lynch, Sept. 2018** > We hired J Murphy’s to completely renovate our master bathroom based on online reviews and photos. Throughout the process we found James to be open, honest and quick to respond to questions and concerns. Mike and Darren spent a great deal of time in my home and were always kind, respectful, and did quality work. They kept the work area clean and put out drop cloths daily. With any renovation, sometimes delays or unexpected things can come up. We had a couple of small issues and James with his crew were quick to remedy them. I’m very happy with my beautiful bathroom and would definitely recommend them. I posted before and after photos **★★★★★ — dawnebremner, Nov. 2016** > I really should be writing a number of different reviews for JAMES MURPHY and his crew as they performed numerous much-needed projects at my house during the summer of 2016. What started out with me wanting to re-tile my ensuite bathroom ballooned into my decision to perform numerous renovations and repairs to my outdated 1980's house, including the complete gut and rebuilding of 2 bathrooms. I quickly came to the realization that these projects were way beyond my capabilities. Next stop - find a contractor! I spent days checking out a number of websites and eventually asked for quotes from 3 different contractors. JAMES MURPHY was the only one who responded and when we set up our first meeting, he arrived at the door precisely on time and impressed me from the beginning with his professionalism and enthusiasm - the man obviously loves his work. My decision was made! (NOTE: I did hear from the other 2 - weeks later!) > > Within a few days, JAMES provided me with an outline of the work to be performed and a quote, which thankfully fell within my budget, and he stayed on budget throughout! Construction began! Throughout the project, JAMES provided me with the names of his various suppliers from bathroom fixtures, custom cabinetry, granite, tile and shower glass, and I was able to take advantage of his contractor discounts. There were snags along the way, as there always is in construction, but JAMES was able to find a solution for everything and fix it, even tracing some horrible dry rot that had spread right to the outside siding of my house and stopping it in its tracks. This required replacing and re-painting some outside cedar siding before the construction of the bathroom could continue. > > JAMES and MIKE from his crew quickly made friends with the resident puppy at my house and I felt very comfortable giving them access to the house each day, even while I was away on a month's vacation. JAMES communicated with me regularly by phone, email and text to let me know what was happening along the way, even sending a movie while I was away on vacation to help with some decision-making that arose. The crew cleaned up every evening and SARAH even vacuumed my staircase one Friday as she knew I was hosting a dinner party that evening! I even relied on JAMES and his crew to make suggestions on design and grout colour etc and am so pleased with the results. I now have 2 brand new fabulous bathrooms, new kitchen backsplash, a freshly painted stairwell, potlights and some new ceiling fans, and I can't be more pleased! I have already recommended J. MURPHY'S CONTRACTING INC. to numerous people and will continue to do so. He literally made a major construction project a dream and I am very thankful! He was a great find! **★★★★★ — HU-103023, July 2016** > We hired J. Murphy's Contracting Inc. to build a deck at the back of our house. We provided a basic plan of what we wanted. James and his crew took those plans, added few of their own creative details, and the result was amazing. We are very happy with the final product. > We have used this company for a couple of projects and in both cases their work was exceptional and the costs have been reasonable. It is very evident that James and his crew take pride in their work. They are very easy to work with and take care to ensure their customers are happy. ## Selected projects - [Bathroom Projects](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bathroom-projects-pj-vj~4045733) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 52 - [Basement Projects](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/basement-projects-pj-vj~4045757) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 26 - [Custom Projects](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/custom-projects-pj-vj~4045818) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 12 - [Kitchen Projects](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kitchen-projects-pj-vj~741212) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 14 - [Outdoor Projects](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/outdoor-projects-pj-vj~4045906) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 17 - [Sue's New Summer Deck](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sue-s-new-summer-deck-pj-vj~1856865) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - [Two New Decks](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/two-new-decks-pj-vj~741221) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 [See all 7 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/general-contractors/j-murphy-s-contracting-inc-pfvwus-pf~219267737) ## Ideabooks - [Fireplace](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/95781223/list/fireplace) — 2 ideas - [Railings](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/73008909/list/railings) — 4 ideas - [jmurphy311's Ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/62679801/list/jmurphy311-s-ideas) — 26 ideas [See all 3 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/jmurphy311) --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
