“We have had a wonderful experience working with Marlon and his crew. Marlon is always so friendly to work with, was great with communication and pricing, and is extremely trustworthy and reliable.”

Dave Blundell

“After finding a major leak from an exterior wall, we invited half a dozen contractors to come out and estimate a fix. . Given how critical and involved the job was, we needed to have confidence every step of the way. From the get-go, Marlon provided that.

From the initial estimate, it was clear that J O Builder doesn't cut corners and wants to do the job right. J O isn't just interested in securing a job but rather taking care of your home as well as if it were their own.

We'll be reaching out to Marlon again for all our future jobs. If you want your job done right, I strongly recommend that you do too.”

“Great Experience working with J O Builder. They are a treasure to work with as they make it easier when you have a construction project at your home. We built an ADU with them and they made it as pleasant and beautiful as possible.

The quality of work is great, they’re very easy to consult with and communication is always timely and excellent. Very easy, very pleasant to work with.”

Shannon S.

“Marlon and his guys were great! They were fast and efficient, but also did awesome work! I have been through several renovation projects and working with Marlon was, by far, the smoothest.”

Richard Nguyen

“Marlon and his crew are amazing!

Marlon the owner came right away and was super professional. Gave us a quote fast and a timeline that worked for us.

Marlon is very responsible and respectful. Glad I chose them to finish our home. I would recommend them to anyone in the Bay Area that need a remodel or any general contracting work done. Will be using their services again in the future!”

TIM DANSER

“Nothing short of TRANSFORMATIVE!!! There are so many wonderful things I can say about J O Builders. They are incredibly professional, personable, high quality, and steadfast in their work and what they deliver.

The team showed up exactly when the promised, finished when they said they would, cleaned up every day when they were done, were there every day until the job got done, and made constant progress.

I have nothing but great things to say and anyone would be lucky to have this crew working on their projects.”

Bob M.

“Marlon and his crew did an amazing job painting the exterior of our home. They were meticulous and made sure everything looked great.

They were on time each day, friendly and respectful of the property. Plus, I thought that their pricing was fair and a really good value! I can't say enough positive comments about the job that they did and their professionalism.”

ALLISON BARNUM

“I have worked with Marlon on several occasions. He re-did my bathrooms, painted my entire condo, and assisted with other projects around the house like removing a railing and installing lights.

Marlon is very communicative, responsive, easy to work with, and his workers are all kind, respectful, and tidy. I would hire Marlon again!”

Blake Gentner

“Decided to do a small addition to our house. Marlon and team provided us a detailed scope and a detailed cost breakdown for the entire project.

The work was done on time and on budget, and communications was incredible. The work was done to a high standard and it blends seamlessly into our original house.

Lots of options out there to choose from. You can’t go wrong with Marlon and the team at JO Builders.”

Emily M.

“Marlon and his team were a delight to work with. I especially appreciated that they helped me troubleshoot whether we really needed to paint the ceilings (turns out, no) and some color matching issues.

The guys arrived on time, completed the job within budget, and were very friendly. I'd work with them again for sure.”

Olivia M.

“Very easy to communicate and add a few additional requests as the job went along. I also addressed some concerns in the middle of the project that the original darker paint was coming through even after two coats of paint and primer and Marlon agreed to have the crew add a third layer of paint to make sure everything was covered up to my satisfaction at no additional cost!

When they left I was very happy with the final result.”

Julius C.

“Marlon and his team did a great job on our project. He was very professional and responsive during the quoting and scheduling process.

He was able to come to the site and provide an estimate and his suggestions before the project as well. His quote for the project was also very fair compared with other quotes we received.

Our experience was very positive and would recommend to anyone with a painting project.”

Lukas Blakk

“Marlon was recommended to me by our contractor and he was responsive, easy to schedule with, and his folks came to assess and then repair the situation within a week.

It can be hard to get help with small repairs and I was impressed with their willingness, professional service and the quality of the work. Thank you!”

Sharlene Pereira

“We have been very impressed by the hard work, reliability, honesty, efficiency, and professionalism of Marlon and his team at J O Builder. Our project consisted of a kitchen and family room remodel including replacing all the windows.

Marlon, the general contractor, did an excellent job communicating with us.  He did an outstanding job coordinating all the details and subcontractors as well.  

He kept the project moving along so it was finished on time!   We truly appreciated his expertise and suggestions.  Marlon is a good listener, friendly, flexible, calm, and easy to work with.  Everyone on his team was knowledgeable, skilled, and great to work with as well.”

Nina Yang

“Marlon and his team replaced some bathroom exhaust fans for me and installed new switches and it was a great experience working with them. Very communicative, timely, and the work done was top notch.”

ROBERT H.

“I hired Marlon to resurface and paint the interior wall in my house while we were out of town on vacation. He did a great job and is a great communicator. Job was done on time.

Problems were found during the job (mold behind the sheetrock). Marlon communicated the problem and was flexible and helpful in getting it resolved.

I am very pleased with his work and will hire him again.”

NIKKI s.

“I can only echo the previous five star reviews. Marlon, Ozny, Daniel, Joel, Yegner, Asael, Ignacio -- and the rest of the crew -- are great at what they do. They are so thoughtful and competent that they have spoiled me for any other construction crew. There is no "No," everything is just a thing to be worked out.

Their finish work is absolutely incredible -- I love to paint, but their attention to detail has me floored. We have lived through other construction projects and they've been fine, but J O Builder provides an exceptional experience, beautiful results and the most pleasant ongoing interaction that I could hope for.”

TINA U.

“If I could give Marlon Ochoa and his team at J O Builder more than 5 stars I would! They did a complete kitchen remodel and living room update of our home in Palo Alto and we are extremely happy with the results and with the entire process.

We loved having a detailed and itemized project plan & cost breakdown which they followed closely enabling J O Builder to complete the project on time without surprises or delays.

I found Marlon & the folks at J O Builder to be helpful and flexible - so easy to work with as we figured out what we wanted. They were accessible responding to texts and calls quickly.

Marlon and his team were not only skillful and competent, but also personable and kind.”
