S.J. Janis Company, Inc.

"SJ Janis remodeled our kitchen and master bath. Sarah, the designer and Andy the project manager were excellent to work with on these projects. They both listened, had great ideas and solutions, were professional, and were always looking out for our best interests."

"I did a total house remodel plus an addition ... 1960s ranch with lots of unused space due to a poor design and a kitchen the size of a closet. S.J.Janis did a perfect design for my taste - open concept with a minimalist shaker style flow. It turned out perfect."

"S.J. Janis was very responsive when I called to have a garage roof beam inspected that was splitting. It is the main beam in the garage. The carpenter came in terrible weather to inspect and followed-up the next day with two 14 foot 2x4 to support the beam to ensure our roof didn't collapse. Their responsiveness and professionalism is greatly appreciated as we determine the best solution to the problem."

"In February of 2021, we contracted with S.J. Janis to do a basement remodel at our 1938 home in Milwaukee. The project included a rec room, bathroom and laundry room. From the start, our experience was completely positive. Starting with our initial meeting with Casey, we were set at ease as he ascertained what we wanted and gave us a general cost expectation and a realistic time frame to complete the project. As with most projects, ideas and desires may change but we always felt as though we were listened to as regards to what we wanted. (As opposed to one potential contractor who we had consulted about our project who only seemed interested in doing the project one way regardless of what we may have suggested). We went through several modifications of the plan eventually arriving at one we were completely happy with. Sarah was excellent in listening to our questions and thoughts and offered great suggestions for implementing changes to the plan. It was necessary to do some added work to ensure water would not be an issue in the remodeled basement. S. J. Janis led us to competent professionals that remedied the potential problems The construction phase of the project began in November of 2021 and the project manager was Greg. Once again, we were put at ease with him from the get-go and he was willing to promptly deal with any issues that came up during this phase. His carpentry work was superb. One of our close friends is a carpenter and when saw the finished work, he especially noted an area of fine work that was done on our accent walls. We just knew it looked good. But now we more than ever appreciate the attention to detail in Greg’s work. We also appreciated that Greg handled all of the organizing of work detail with the other workers on the project. Unlike an addition project of 30 years ago, where we ourselves had to deal with our workmen, we were left worry-free as Greg handled all of the coordination. In short, we would readily recommend S. J. Janis. There were professional, respectful and if any issues arose, they successfully dealt with them. For example, after the project was completed, one of the floor tiles came up in the rec room. We alerted Greg who got the ball rolling and one of the flooring specialists came back and fixed it. While there, he noticed that the floor tiles near the drain in the laundry room should have had a grout/filler in them and offered to complete that job, too. So grout/filler was ordered, and he came back and did that work too. It is this attention to detail and desire to complete a job to perfection that we really appreciated."

"We did a full basement remodel with SJ Janis Company. They were excellent from start to finish. Their whole staff was helpful and professional. We met with Jim for the sales consultation and he really took time to understand our needs, and give a truthful and honest consultation about cost. He took time to help us think things through, and we never felt pressured or rushed. The design process was extra awesome because Joe was able to do some 3D architectural drawings which really made the project come to life. We had some tricky elements we wanted to work in, and some soundproofing requirements and they really did their research and took time to incorporate those things for us. Sarah was a super skillful in choosing design selections. She took time to really understand our style as family, and pulled things together within our budget quickly and efficiently. The project manager and lead carpenter Guy was amazing from start to finish. He was professional, personable, and an excellent communicator. Most importantly, his work is impecable. His skill and attention to detail for every single part of the project really is I think what made this project shine. For a project of this size we planned for disruption and snags, and to be honest there really weren't any. It was really smooth sailing thanks to Guy, and the team worked hard to make sure anything that came up was addressed transparently and swiftly. Thanks to SJ janis we have a beautiful basement, and we could not be happier."
