“I recently hired Lifetime to replace some of the hardscaping around my house. We had to delay the start of the work because of rain in November but we finally started in the beginning of December. The crew were here for about a week except for Sunday and had the demo done in about one day, although I think it took a little into the second day as my patio was laid extra thick and breaking thru it was definitely a process. They also had to move the sprinklers in the back where I had a retaining wall replaced. I’m super happy with the result. The front patio feels a lot larger now that it’s not concrete and flagstones, the walkway is no longer a trip hazard, and the driveway is much cleaner. They even managed to make it line up with my semi uneven sidewalks. The back yard also feels larger with a shorter wall. They also replaced all my front landscaping lighting. I still need to get the flower beds mulched and planted so I haven’t buried the low voltage lines yet. I think one of the sprinkler heads may have been damaged but that’s minor and easy to fix.”

“After having our wood patio for 30 years, and having to deal with painting it every few years, and fixing it every now and then, it was time to get rid of it, and have a new Patio for our backyard. My wife and I decided for the new Alum wood patios, this way we don't have to deal with rotted wood any longer. Since I had luck with contactors that did home service for us thru GOOGLE search, I decided to research for a Patio contractor using GOOGLE. I picked up 4 contractors for an estimate, all 4 contractors had 5 stars reviews on GOOGLE. I finally decided to have Jeff with J H Construction to do the work. Even though Jeff's estimate was few hundred dollars more than the other 3 contactors, but I felt that he is the person I can trust. The reasons I trusted Jeff with the job are: 1- Professional and Knowledge: Jeff took the measurement, outlined exactly how the Patio look will be, showed us the options available, answered all my wife questions, and all my questions, and I sensed in him that he will not do shortcuts like the other contactors wanted to do. One contactor wanted to attach the patio to the Eave wood instead of the wall stucco, because it is easier to do that, not with Jeff, he explained that the Patio should be attached to the stucco of the house, more work, but it is the correct way. 2-Honesty: I sensed honesty in Jeff, he did not even take a penny until the job was completed. On the day of Installation Jeff dispatched his crew, the foremen Justin, the Electrician Sam, and the helper Ken. They came early in the morning worked till 6PM, and the next day Sam came to do the final touch up that took only about 1 hour. 3-Integrity: Jeff gave me 10 years part and Labor warranty, the other contactors were talking 1 year warranty, even one of the contractors want to sell us 5 years warranty for an extra $1000, not with Jeff, there was no extra fee for the 10 years parts/labor warranty. 4-Willigness to work with our request: We wanted our Patio little different, part Lattice and part solid roof, Jeff was willing to do that, other contractors refused. My wife and I are very happy with the work that J H Construction did, I am glad I found that company on GOOGLE search. Thanks GOOGLE!”

Serving Tustin, Irvine, Santa Ana, and surrounding Orange County communities.
“We purchased a Bon Pergola after searching both locally and on the web for all the options to cover our 15’ x 24’ back patio. The rear of the house faces south here in North Carolina so we have full sun ALL day, all year. Aside from wanting some shade to enjoy our back yard (overlooking the 18th hole on our golf course), we wanted to reduce the solar gain in the south facing room. The Villa Pergola 2.0 (19 x 13 freestanding) fit the bill perfectly both in size and with a surprisingly low cost compared to other quotes we got. After obtaining all the permits from the HOA and the County, we ordered it with extended 9’ posts in white. It came surprisingly fast from California to North Carolina and was delivered professionally to our home with care. My son and I built and installed the pergola in under 6 hours. We did need a 3rd helper to raise the 19’ beams and my wife unpacked all the parts while we worked…so I guess it would be 4 people if I’m being honest. The pergola was manufactured incredibly precise, the instructions were impeccably accurate and easy to understand, all the parts fit perfectly and the finish did not scratch or get damaged at all during assembly. My wife and I were very impressed with how carefully everything was packed and the quality of the pergola. Once completed and installed I was able to then construct the barbecue island I planned to encompass one corner. We love and HIGHLY RECOMMEND Bon Pergola for anyone considering a purchase like this.”
