Testimonials
". . . My wife and I have built eight homes, and thus consider ourselves "expert" in assessing the builder and process it takes to have a successful experience. You will find that John personally engages in all aspects; planner, architect, tradesman, decorator, foreman, etc. He will show a personal interest in your project that will rival your own.
We can personally attest that these qualities drove our project to the best of our"eight", not by a slight margin; we would call it a transformational margin. While price is important, it is only one aspect to determining total value. The overall value you will receive from John and his team, is far and away THE BEST you will find.
"Choose JR Ernest and you've chosen the best, and the best value."

"The quality of work is impeccable. In the seven years we have been here, the house has required a minimal of maintenance. It was done right the first time!
In the process of building, we were given excellent suggestions regarding changes that would work better. Otherwise, it was built to our exact specifications.
Since we have been in our home, John Ernest has always been available to us to answer questions, to acquire references or help us out in what ever area we needed his expertise. His availability continues to be invaluable to us."

"John (Ernest) really listened to what we were trying to accomplish and designed a creative yet practical plan for our house project. John and his team did great work. We really appreciate the attention to detail in executing the project and we enjoy our new living space everyday."

"J.R. Ernest Construction is uniquely qualified to bridge the seemingly inevitable chasms between an architect's visions and documentation and the reality of construction. This is accomplished with a personal involvement and a depth of understanding that larger firms attempt to accomplish with a team of specialists. We have been the fortunate beneficiaries of this with our Frank Lloyd Wright style home in Lake Geneva. Beneath the surface of our home, designed on an equilateral triangular grid with all of the resultant complex spatial intersections, lie tons of concrete and steel needed to support cantilevers, vaulted ceilings, fireplaces, and the radiant heating system. More visible is the superb masonry work incorporating 30,000-plus bricks, finish carpentry on the cabinets, maple walls, staircases, built-in furniture, innumerable custom windows and doors, and a lighting design that emphasizes the results-all so typical in a FLW home. This could not have been accomplished without J.R. Ernest's ability to fill design gaps, and to orchestrate and motivate the trades that dealt with the many unique construction issues in this type of job. What a Result!"
