Jimmy has been a pleasure to work with I would recommend him to anyone that needs to have a project whether it’s a tiny house to a full garage.

UPDATE: Contacted Jimmy for 2 more jobs. He completed the work on our well & we scheduled the 2nd job to be done the beginning of the following week. When he was about 45 mins late, I had to reach out to him to see where he was. He said he needed to reschedule way AFTER he was already late. What? Who does that? So disrespectful. We actually had to reschedule that work 2 more times & each time, he was a no call and no show. The 3rd time he didn't show up, he never answered any communications or reached out. No apology, acknowledgement of dropping the ball, NOTHING! WOW....I unfortunately cannot, in good conscience, recommend this person or "business". He blatantly disrespected us & clearly does not value his customers or their time. He is not a person of integrity. He does not keep appointments or communicate with his customers. We just moved to Farmville & this old house needs work! We are seniors & on a fixed budget, we have to save up to get these things done. He worked real hard to lose our trust & business. Well folks, "When a person shows you who they are, believe them the 1st time!" I guess that's on us. Oh & he doesn't make eye contact. Super sketchy!

We had Jimmy clean the year's accumulation of pine needles off our roof and clean out the gutters. He did a good job at a reasonable price. We were particularly happy with the cleanup of the decks and walkways afterward. Definitely will hire odds and ends again.

There’s no one like Jimmy Lee! He has been there for us for over a year, helping with anything we’ve asked, projects big and small. He’s an amazing problem solver and is our go-to guy for anything that leaves us stumped on how to approach it. Can’t recommend him enough!
Completed Projects include: disposal install, ceiling fan install, boat house removal, hose bib repair, carpet removal, post harvest land clearing, electrical and water line trenching, boiler removal, drywall ceiling repair, etc.

Jimmy from Odds and Ends Construction started out professional and
timely. He came out and did a walk around my deck for the patio. We
then discussed the size and my expectations for the patio. He sent an
estimate which I agreed too. I paid the deposit once it was ordered.
He stated they would get started right away. His crew came over and
started to work on leveling the ground.

The dump truck showed up one day to deliver rock that was not paid for
by Jimmy and the driver refused to drop it because no one was on site
from the Odds and Ends Construction, this delayed the process. Once
this was rectified, they installed the pavers. Which I did as the
customer add to the project. I received a text stating it was an
additional $350 for the pavers, to which I agreed.

The delivery was the following week, and the rock was delivered by
Jimmy on that Saturday. Jimmy and We talked about the patio and
expectations for the finished project he stated he had 66 stone pavers
to line the outside of the patio which I said I liked that idea and
even text him to say steps was a good idea. Later that week on
Thursday Jimmy text and said it was done and looked good.

I got to the house to see the finished product. It was not what we
talked about at all. I have attached pictures to show no step down,
and it was a bunch of topsoil around the edge with seed. I then looked
at the rock laid around the tree and it did not even cover the sand
base material used. It was like he ran out of rock and did not even
bother to completely cover the area. The pavers were not even squared
up to the house off by 2 inches very noticeable poor workmanship. I
called Jimmy and he would not answer. So, I texted him that I was not
happy with the topsoil placed where paver step-downs should have been.
Jimmy text that he misunderstood what we talked about. Texting, I
reviewed with him and talked about the 66 pavers for the step down and
no mention of mulch. He responded to say only, we would regroup. I
sent pictures of the rock not covering the area he said he would bring
rock out which never happened. He sent me a link to buy more to fix
it. When I sent the text it was not squared up to the house, he said
he would have to look at it.

I asked why the final invoice was $1,000 higher. He said it was for
the rock and topsoil. The same rock that did not cover the base
materials and the topsoil I didn't even order. Now back to the invoice
it was backdated 2 weeks which made no sense. I know contractors can
do shady and questionable things, but this was just unprofessional.
This is we're I messed up, I paid the invoice thinking he would arrive
and fix the areas since he texts and said he would.

Jimmy never came to look at it in fact he has not returned phone
calls, text messages or email.

Is this how he conducts business? Based on my very bad experience with
Jimmy from Odds and Ends Construction, I in good conscious cannot
recommend this company to anyone.

Even though I am a busy person, I feel it is in the interest of
everyone that I report this company to the Better Business Bureau!

Odds & Ends Home Improvement is a professional, responsible and reliable company. I had my jobs taken care of within a week of contacting them. An estimate was given, the repair guy was on time and polite, and my jobs are complete. I would highly recommend as this has been a great experience. I will most definitely reach out to them again!

Jimmy and Tristan, with Odds & Ends , did a foundation for my mobile home. They did more than expected to make sure it was to my satisfaction. They are very Professional in what they do.
I'm very well pleased with their work. They made sure everything was cleaned up before they left. I will use them again if I need anything else. I highly recommend them for any job needed around your house.

My wife and I have hired Jimmy at Odds and Ends a number of times on our farm ranging from work on our new barn to finishing off our basement. Jimmy is really accessible and responsive and provides great value. We will continue to use and are in fact on our next job! Highly recommend!
