J Paul Builders

We have had ventilation issues ever since we moved into our 50 year old house 8 years ago. There were bad smells and we unfortunately tried to fix it with bad contractors. After a new roof and 2nd floor ventilation system was installed (poorly it ended up), we ended up with mold and had to vacate for 6 months of abatement. We had run out of patience and were ready to move when, as a last ditch effort, we called J Paul Builders for a consultation. Steven came over on a Saturday morning and within 5 minutes was able to size up the situation and provide a solution that made sense. It was a little aggressive (removing the whole 2nd floor ceiling/ insulation and HVAC ductwork ) and replacing it with foam insulation and a better engineered HVAC duct design. The proposed bid was more than we expected but we could tell that J Paul Builders' professionalism, confidence and experience would get the job done. We have worked with a number of different contractors over the years but our experience with J Paul Builders and Steven was nothing short of life changing. They delivered on every promise, Steven was present daily to answer questions and explain the process. And if we had a problem with anything at all, there were no excuses- just a "we will take care of it " attitude. At the completion of the project, the smells are gone and our 2nd floor is a comfortable place to be. we feel like we have a new house! Oh- and the best part is that the project came in on time and UNDER budget!! Thank you to Steven and Jesse and everyone else involved who gave us our house back!! PS- my wife's favorite part of the process was when they built a wall ,as a first step, that separated the living space from the construction. We never had any dust and it did not disrupt our daily lives at all. Well done!

I've known Paul Lichter and JPaul Builders since, literally, day #1. I have recommended them to discerning families for years. In my book, they are the very, very best. Period. Highest Quality. Integrity and Ethics like none other. Love them. Do yourself a favor and reach and talk to them (or you'll regret it)!! - Steve Meizlish

Today marks a year and half from when our world was flipped upside down and we were left with a poorly half built house, mounting bills, with no end in sight. This past year and half has been a roller coaster of emotion for us and you guys and the JPaul team were apart of all of our highs and lows, and continued to supporting us through this endeavor. You have become family and have built us a house that we can raise our new family safely and securely. There is nothing like a JPaul home and we are so happy with the end product and the process to get there. I just want to say thank you for taking on this project and getting us to the finish line. Without you guys, I truly believe we would be in a completely different situation than we are today. We can't thank you and the whole JPaul team, enough and we are looking forward to many years in our home and continued friendship.

Endeavoring in having a very custom and complex house built is taking a giant step into a project of incredible magnitude. We entrusted JPaul Builders to make our dream/fantasy come true. From the first shovel in the ground to its completion 2 years later, JPaul proved day-in and day-out why they are recognized as being in the top of their class. Although JPaul had a full-time Superintendent on the job, Paul or Steven Lichter visited our site almost everyday. They took total ownership of the project by watching over virtually every single detail. Our home was their 7th built and/or renovated in Caves Valley Golf Club in Owings Mills, MD. We originally considered what we were building to be our Dream Home. Having lived in it for 15 months, it’s really our Fantasy Home. Thank you JPaul Builders!!

Tell any of your friends or colleagues that you're embarking on a major renovation, with a timeline and a budget, and they'll laugh at you -- unless they've worked with J Paul Builders. We completed a major project with them on-time and on-budget, and could not be happier with the work. I attribute this to extreme attention to detail, excellent coordination with the design team, and top 1% relationships with sub-contractors (of the highest quality) that ensured our job was consistently staffed and work done on time. I highly, highly recommend. Contact me anytime for more information.

My experience with this company has been very disappointing at first. We purchased a home (second owners) that was built by J Paul Builders and overall the quality of the house seems to be fine. However, we ran into an issue with the electrical wiring that had stumped our electrician and I called hoping to get info about electrician that had wired the house. Took some time, but owner came and looked into problem himself; I appreciate that.

Working with JPaul Builders on joint projects has always surpassed all expectations. Their professionalism and flawless attention to detail ensures that clients are always left elated with the newly constructed, or remodeled spaces they’ve charged JPaul to provide for them. Senior Designer, Rachael Ginsburg, and Floors, Etc., have worked with Paul and Steven Lichter for as long as they’ve been providing services in Maryland, and the quality of their work, and their business ethics ensure that we will continue to work with them for years to come.

Paul and Steven provide an unparalleled level of craftsmanship and customer service. From the initial consultation to the completion of the project, they truly take pride in every part of the construction process. My project was unique and complex, and JPaul was the only builder in the area with the experience and skill for the task. They are honest, proactive at solving problems, answer every phone call, and go above and beyond to keep their customers happy and deliver flawless work.

As an Architect it’s important to find a contractor to partner with who understands the significance of detail coordination and problem solving. Paul and Steven provided the highest quality project execution for custom homes both renovations and new construction.

Working with J Paul Builders was such a pleasure! They were attentive, responsive, and proactive throughout the whole process. The entire process was made transparent every step of the way and their professionalism is second to none in the area. Highly recommend!
