Colleen, Ben, Sandy and the entire team at JA Myers Homes were fabulous to work with. They allowed us to make customizations and changes to our new home that other builders would not - "yes we can" was always their attitude! After walking through and sitting down with other builders in the area, and having friends who bought from those other builders and hearing the troubles they had with their homes, we are glad we bought our second home with JA Myers. Proud to say we have been 12 years (10 years in our first home and now 2 years in our second) with JA Myers Homes.

My husband and I were looking to downsize and we are now enjoying our new townhome from J. A. Myers Homes. The whole process went smoothly and any questions we had were answered in a timely manner and everyone we very nice. We now enjoy spending our evenings relaxing on our deck.

I purchased a home to scale down and to move my mother into a single floor home. We are both very happy with the purchase and so far all is good. There was a certain difficulty getting us in before winter but the bad weather was definitely a factor. In the end, J.A. Myers did a final push on our behalf and we were able to have the closing right before Christmas. The place is well built and the space and division of the rooms very well planned. We purchased a luxury unit and the high ceiling is what we like the most.

The house is solidly built, details and warranty has a lot of work needed. The outside work is horrible, siding not put on correctly, grading was 3 feet off at foundation, grass was nothing but weeds, and the backyard floods on a simple downpour. I personally would not use this builder again.

We worked with J.A Myers on a hoarded home they had flipped and we wanted to purchase, it was my husbands childhood home. From the aesthetic point of things the home was gorgeous. However as we live here we notice things were done to code but no more than that, just enough to pass the inspection. There was broken glass and garbage all over the yard, this was to be cleaned up and it was not they flipped the dirt and throw grass seed and mulch on top, a busted sewer pipe in the basement they didn t see although it was swept clean ( they did fix this after our realtor company reached out and asking them to fix it, there is no ceiling fan boxes in any room and there was an exposed uncapped copper wire shoved in the insulation in our bedroom ceiling light. They were not willing to work with us when their second appraisal came in lower than our first one and wanted us to pay the difference, so to prevent loosing the chance at my husbands child hood home our wonderful real estate company paid for a 3 rd appraisal in hopes it would match the first. To top all of this off we were trying to buy during COVID and already under contract during the shut down. They threatened to pull out twice because we had to move our closing date due to not having a proof of a full paycheck for the loan company at the time to close. I am disappointed in things we are slowly seeing and noticing as the house begins to settle and we investigate further along with the obvious lack in pride of their work. You can tell things were done to meet the bare minimum of the standards and not to go any higher. Not to mention they were rude when I went to drop off a check, the lady at the desk just abruptly and rudely asked what I wanted as if I was bothering her
I will never be purchasing a home built, remodeled or sold by them again.

IIn May 2017 we contracted with J. A. Myers to build our condo in Jackson Heights. Working with Ben Myers and his team was a very positive experience. I watched closely as they constructed the unit. They build an excellent condo. Any problems or concerns that I had were promptly addressed and resolved. The entire construction process from May 1, 2017 to settlement on July 31, 2017 was above and beyond my expectations.

We have been in our home since the end of 2013. Working with Ben and Lisa and everyone at JA Myers was a great experience. They respond quickly with any concerns you have. The office staff, especially Sandy have always been pleasant and very helpful. After experiencing building a home in another state many years ago this was a very pleasant experience. We love our home and would recommend J A Myers.

Did a terrible job, kept inflating the price for problems that didn t exist during construction, tried to sue us for not paying the remainder of the money owed for jobs not completed. The quality of the house is subpar and it did not withstand the recent rainstorms without the basement flooding. Among other problems that were fixed after construction was completed include terrible electric work (failed outlets and wiring that needed to be replaced by us), rain down spouting needed replacing and extended to an under ground setup to stop the yard from flooding. The grinder pump needed to be replaced because the plumber they hired forgot to cover the exterior piping before the frigid winter caused it freeze and fail, it needed to be replaced. Basement door leaks. The ceiling above the living room has a leak from the master bath. This is only a handful of issues and the drama and headache we got from this terrible builder is enough to say never again. 1 Star!! P.S. I told this to my friends that were looking to build and they said they never heard of a builder giving so many problems to a buyer and they thanked me for telling them to AVOID J.A. Myers!

My wife and I are just weeks away from taking ownership of our new home in Thornbury Hunt. J.A. Myers and all the individuals that work for them are just plain fantastic. They have been there to help us design our new home, make sure we understand all the various options, and to answer our silly questions. They have made the experience a joy and cannot recommend them highly enough. From Mr. Myers, Lisa Prout, and everyone else, it has been a fantastic journey and we can t wait to move in.

We just want to say thank you very much for all your efforts in bringing our new home into existence.

We built this house in 2010, and a couple of years ago, the large chandelier in the main hallway cap came loose. I thought it was from me dusting, but it made us nervous, so we had our handy man check it out. Turns out that the builder put in a cheap plastic box to hold this heavy chandelier and it was broken into pieces. He told us that it was ready to come crashing down any time. Someone could have been seriously hurt or killed. Please be aware and check your chandeliers. We also contracted to have fan boxes put into all our ceiling fixtures in the bedrooms so that we could easily install fans when ready. Turns out that these too, were plastic boxes and had to be replaced. Just want you all to be aware. Our kitchen dining area lighting fixture also came loose for the same reason.

J.A. Myers Homes is, by far, the best builder in the area. From the start of the construction process to closing their organization was absolutely outstanding. My family has been living in our custom home for 4 years now. They took our vision of the perfect home and made it into a reality. We are delighted with all aspects of the home and the surrounding area. The development was very well planned and implemented by the builder. We were kept in the loop during the building process and the job was completed when they said it would be. Thank you again!

One word describes my thoughts on problem correction through customer service after settlement: "disappointed". Some concerns are resolved only after numerous phone calls, others receive no attention at all except a polite phone call with empty promises. Unfortunately, phone calls do not resolve the situation. Now I have two words to describe problem correction through customer service after settlement: "very disappointed".

We chose JA Myers to build our off-site Avenel home because of great reviews, how long they have been in business, etc. Before we bought our lot from someone else we had to meet with Ben to come up with rough plans for the inside and outside of our home. We told him that we liked the first floor of the Avenel and the second floor of another plan and Ben told us that we can make a 5th bedroom where we would have a loft and and the 2nd floor family room. We LOVED that idea so much since we didn't want any wasted space and had furniture that would definitely fit in a bigger room. Ben was patient with us and our community with building rules and customized our Avenel wherever we wanted to change things to our liking. Mike, our foreman was awesome.; he went above and beyond with his hard work and dedication to our house. We are VERY IMPRESSED with JA Myers and would recommend them to anyone who wants to build. We are VERY HAPPY in our perfect new home. Thank You So Much!

Our experience dealing with J.A. Myers Homes has been very good. We would recommend them to anyone. The quality of workmanship is excellent. In new construction if there is something you are not satisfied with they address your concern and make arrangements to have it fixed. It is a pleasure to deal with Dave (foreman)and Bill (sales manager Cherry Tree). Very friendly and they want to please you. We are very happy in our new home!!!! A special thanks to Ben for working with us during the move to our new home.

Excellent experience with JA Myers. Wayne the foreman was very good, demanding that tasks were done properly. The small things that can make a big difference were excellent. For example the concrete work was smooth, done with expansion joints, sidewalk exceeded expectations with a nice curved design. The electrical work was done with Square D panel, high quality. The plumbing was done with a 1" pipe and 3/4" feeding the far side of the house. They could have done the job with 1/2" pipe which reduces the water flow considerably. They use 6" exterior walls for improved insulation. These are a few examples of the quality they build into the home. And they do this at a very competitive price.
I would recommend JA Myers to anyone.
