Concrete stairs

★★★★★

“Montclair Construction did an excellent job building our concrete stairs. After talking to several contractors and not feeling good about any of them, having only one conversation with Robert Jarratt sealed the deal. From beginning to end, Robert, Tom, Diana, Miguel & Maisel, and the entire crew have been a joy to work with. I just can't say enough about Montclair Construction, and would definitely use them again.”

Foundation repair & retaining wall

★★★★★

“Montclair Construction added a retaining wall and did some foundation repair for me recently. Robert, Diana, Javier, and the rest of the crew were all very responsive and reliable for the entire process. Everything was done professionally and they left my basement clean at the end. I would definitely work with them again.”

Courtyard & drainage

★★★★★

“I had them replace the flooring and drainage system for an interior courtyard in our home. They provided a fair and detailed estimate within 24 hours of coming to discuss the project and were able to start the project sooner than anticipated. The crew -- led by Eduardo Guzman -- worked very hard and diligently throughout the project.”
