# Jan-Michaels Construction **Trade:** General Contractor / Remodeling · **Address:** 18 Mabelle St, Worcester, MA 01602 · **Phone:** (508) 792-9586 · **Website:** https://jan-michaels.com · **Languages:** English **Rating: not yet scored** — 0 reviews across 2 sources is too little evidence for an honest number. ## The honest read Jan-Michaels Construction is Janet and Michael — a married couple in Worcester who say they are still the only two people running the company. Their own telling of the start: Janet suggested a remodeling company, Michael proposed marriage instead. They design and build custom homes, whole-home remodels and custom decks around Worcester and Brookfield, and are building now in their own Molasses Hill Estates subdivision in Brookfield — which is the rare case where you can go look at a builder's houses in one place. How far back the company goes depends on the source: its Better Business Bureau file records a business start date of 1984 and 42 years in business, while the site's own line is "Since 1993" and it reports 33 years. For a custom build or a gut remodel in Worcester County, hiring them means hiring the two owners directly. Ask which houses in Molasses Hill Estates you can walk through, pin down which start date is the real one, and get licensing, insurance and a written schedule settled before signing. **Strengths:** - Two-person shop — Janet and Michael are the company's only staff - Custom homes — building now in its own Brookfield subdivision - Whole-home remodels — full renovations and custom decks alongside new builds **Concerns:** - Years in business — site says 33, BBB file records 42 **Where sources disagree:** - Founding date: the BBB file records a 1984 business start and 42 years in business, while the company's own site says "Since 1993" and 33 years. ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - A two-person Worcester custom home builder and remodeler run by a married couple, Janet and Michael _(confidence: high)_ - [Official Website](https://jan-michaels.com) — “A two-person Worcester custom home builder and remodeler run by a married couple, Janet and Michael, who design and build custom homes, whol…” - [Official Website](https://jan-michaels.com) — “Ownership (self-reported): Run by Janet and Michael, a wife-and-husband team who state they are the only two people running the company” - [Official Website](https://jan-michaels.com) — “Stated ownership (self-reported): Family-owned” - Designs and builds custom homes, whole-home remodels and custom decks _(confidence: high)_ - [Official Website](https://jan-michaels.com) — “A two-person Worcester custom home builder and remodeler run by a married couple, Janet and Michael, who design and build custom homes, whol…” - [Better Business Bureau](https://www.bbb.org/us/ma/worcester/profile/home-builders/jan-michaels-construction-0261-205566) — “Services offered (Better Business Bureau): Home Builders” - Currently building in its own Molasses Hill Estates subdivision in Brookfield _(confidence: high)_ - [Official Website](https://jan-michaels.com) — “A two-person Worcester custom home builder and remodeler run by a married couple, Janet and Michael, who design and build custom homes, whol…” - States a service area of Worcester and Brookfield _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](https://jan-michaels.com) — “Stated service area (self-reported): Worcester, Brookfield” - Its BBB file records a business start date of 1984 and 42 years in business, with Michael Maneggio as principal contact _(confidence: medium)_ - [Better Business Bureau](https://www.bbb.org/us/ma/worcester/profile/home-builders/jan-michaels-construction-0261-205566) — “A BBB profile for Jan-Michaels Construction at 18 Mabelle Street, Worcester, MA showing the business is not BBB accredited and is Not Rated …” - The company's own site says "Since 1993" and reports 33 years in business _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](https://jan-michaels.com) — “Company history (self-reported): The site says the couple started the company after meeting in college — Janet suggested a remodeling compan…” - [Official Website](https://jan-michaels.com) — “Self-reported 33 years in business” - Family-owned, with the couple stating they are the only two people running the company _(confidence: high)_ - [Official Website](https://jan-michaels.com) — “Ownership (self-reported): Run by Janet and Michael, a wife-and-husband team who state they are the only two people running the company” - [Official Website](https://jan-michaels.com) — “Stated ownership (self-reported): Family-owned” - Specializes in General Contractor / Remodeling _(confidence: high)_ - [Official Website](https://jan-michaels.com) — “A two-person Worcester custom home builder and remodeler run by a married couple, Janet and Michael, who design and build custom homes, whol…” - [Better Business Bureau](https://www.bbb.org/us/ma/worcester/profile/home-builders/jan-michaels-construction-0261-205566) — “Services offered (Better Business Bureau): Home Builders” - Also offers Carpentry _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](https://jan-michaels.com) — “A two-person Worcester custom home builder and remodeler run by a married couple, Janet and Michael, who design and build custom homes, whol…” ## Ownership - Identifies as family-owned — the business's own statement, not independently verified. ## License Status: **not_found** — verified against the official MA state registry, never self-reported.
