About Us

James recently completed a significant renovation on my 100 year old house. Despite being an outstanding builder, James possesses extensive experience and a genuine passion for his craft. His work ethic is impressive and he consistently demonstrates a commitment to excellence.

James brought along a talented team of tradespeople, all of who were not only skilled but genuinely pleasant to work with. The scope of our project was extensive, involving major works in plumbing, electrical and air conditioning, along with relocation of rooms, ceilings and structural architecture.

Throughout the renovation James was remarkably flexible and accommodating, handling significant changes to the project’s scope as they arose. He also accommodated my one of a kind design features that were not available on the market, showcasing his creativity and commitment to delivering unique results.

Moreover James worked seamlessly with our architect, projects manager and designer, ensuring that everyone was on the same page with the project progressing. We couldn’t be happier with the final outcome of our renovation and I wholeheartedly recommend Jakes for any building project no matter the size, specificity or budget.

I had the pleasure of working with James on a large scale residential renovation project in Killara where I was the interior designer. I cannot recommend him highly enough to future clients and stakeholders. James brought a wealth of construction knowledge to the table, but what truly set him apart was his ability to seamlessly merge his practical expertise with a creative vision that enhanced the overall design.

Throughout the project, James demonstrated a remarkable aptitude for collaboration, working closely with the various leaders in their fields to ensure a cohesive and well-executed outcome. His skill in aligning design elements with the building infrastructure was invaluable, as he consistently found innovative solutions that balanced functionality with aesthetics.

James’s ability to adapt and contribute across disciplines made him an integral part of the team. His diverse skill set not only complemented the work of others but elevated the project as a whole. I would not hesitate to work with him again and wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking a builder with both technical expertise and a creative touch.

I had the pleasure of working with James as the foreman on my project in McMahon’s Point and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From start to finish, James was a true professional who displayed exceptional leadership, communication and organisational skills. His attention to detail and willingness to go above and beyond was evident throughout the project.

He consistently demonstrated his ability to manage his team effectively, ensuring that the project ran smoothly and was delivered on time and within budget. James’ dedication, commitment and work ethic were truly impressive and I would not hesitate to work with him again in the future.
