JBJ Building & Remodeling is a family-owned West Michigan builder founded in 2002. Owner Jamie Simmons meets every customer, and his crew is known for level, exact tile work.

Tile-first remodels from a Comstock Park crew

JBJ Building & Remodeling has handled bathroom remodeling in Grand Rapids and the towns around it for more than 20 years. The office is on 6 Mile Court in Comstock Park, and the work runs from attic baths and master suites to kitchens, basements, additions and decks.

Tile is where this crew stands out. They set complex patterns, large-format tile and in-floor heating, with careful subfloor prep so grout lines stay true for decades.

One Google reviewer came to Jamie on a referral from The Tile Shop for a fireplace wall in 16 by 24 inch natural slate. Another said the level of the tile impressed him most.

Jamie & his crew did an amazing job on our master bathroom. We new Jamie was the person we wanted to work with, right from the start. We interviewed numerous builders, but Jamie was the one that brought logical ideas to the project. He shared great ideas that wouldn't break the bank but stay with the style of the house while making the room feel larger.

Answers for West Michigan homeowners

Is the first consultation free?

Yes. JBJ offers a free consultation and free quote. Call 616-862-8778 or fill out the contact form with your name, project type, project address and estimated budget. The team aims to respond promptly, and Jamie meets with every customer before any work is planned or priced.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. JBJ Building & Remodeling Inc. is fully licensed and insured. The company handles all aspects of permitting for your project, pulls every permit the job needs and builds strictly to code. It also stands by the manufacturer's warranty on all products it supplies.

How long does a bathroom remodel take?

It depends on the size of the room and the scope, and Jamie sets the plan at your walkthrough. For reference, one Google reviewer's complete attic bathroom took 8 weeks against a 6-week plan, and the owner still called the result fantastic. Jamie would rather take a little longer than cut corners.

Can you install heated tile floors?

Yes. In-floor heating is part of the custom tile service, along with complex patterns, large-format tile, waterproof shower enclosures and backsplashes. The crew starts with proper subfloor preparation, then makes precise cuts and keeps grout lines straight so the floor holds up for decades without cracking or shifting.

Will you finish a project another contractor left?

JBJ has done it. A Google reviewer hired Jamie and his crew after a previous contractor walked away midway through their kitchen remodel. She wrote that they were responsive and professional, did great work, and that she only wished she had called them first. Call to talk through where your project stands.
