Jakin Homes and Pools was engaged to undertake extensive renovations and landscaping at our family home, which was originally constructed c. 1920. Having completed a number of renovations in the past, we awarded the contract to Jakin based on recommendations from their clients; quality of workmanship and sub-contractor management as well as James Watkin’s enthusiasm for the project and his valuable input into finalising the complicated design and construction elements of the project. Throughout the project James, provided attentive and responsive client management, ensuring high quality of workmanship, quality finishes and dealing with any snagging and rectifications promptly.
TOM AND LIZ JEAVONS-FELLOWS
"We chose James because of his undeniable passion for quality design and construction and his eye for detail, as well as his ‘one stop shop’ design and construction capability for all facets of our total project.
Every step of the way he pushed the envelope of design and quality and the final result was astounding well beyond our expectations. His team were some of the highest skilled craftsmen I have ever come across in the industry and everything was completed with the highest quality at the forefront.
We now have a pool and outdoor area that has completely transformed our home giving it a resort like feel from the inside and out, added significant property value, and has been a source of many great family and friend gatherings and used all year round – finished to the highest quality standard."
PATRICK AND JANET GALIMI
“We were very impressed with the professionalism James and the team showed throughout the job. The quality of work, particularly carpentry, was of the highest standard. The team was always able to solve problems in a practical and cost-effective way. Our renovation was delivered on time, to the day.
Importantly, the integrity and friendliness of the whole team was impressive. Nothing was ever a problem and they responded to our issues (even after the job was completed) very quickly. They were always respectful and have very high standards.
We would happily recommend James and the Jakin team.”
RICHARD AND JANE FREUDENSTEIN
“James Watkin from Jakin is the most proactive builder I have ever worked with. Working on numerous projects together, James loves to be highly involved in the design phase of a project from the very beginning. He is committed to his craft and gives high attention to detail.
James takes the time to talk to the owners of each project personally, walking them through the process. I look forward to working with James on many more projects and know he will continue to show dedicated to quality craftsmanship and managing good relationships on each project.”
