Old School Contracting

Old School Contracting is a Waterford, Connecticut general contractor, and in a September 2026 Google review a customer with water damage in a mud room wrote that Jim came out the next day, gave an honest assessment without trying to upsell, and then came back the following day with one of his men; they had the room leak-free just before a storm. In September 2026 a reviewer wrote that a roof needed replacing two years earlier after a leak damaged an upstairs bathroom; Jim came right over, and three days later they had a new roof and the bathroom replaced, with Jim's crew described as professional, neat and clean. In August 2026 a customer wrote that they used the company for a bathroom renovation and then an addition, and will keep using the company. In October 2025 a customer wrote that Jim and his team resided their house in Waterford and were there every day until the job was done, and another October 2025 reviewer said Jim and crew tarped the house, covered the bushes and did the whole roof in one day. In June 2025 a customer wrote that Jim was at the house within two hours of the estimate request and back the next day with materials and a work plan; with painters, an electrician and a carpenter in a small space, the job was completed within four days. In September 2025 a customer wrote of working with Jim and his crew to remodel a basement room and make structural repairs to a deck, and an August 2025 reviewer had the downstairs windows replaced and a deteriorating shed upgraded, adding that they can get delayed due to other projects but did meet the schedule. In September 2025 a one-star reviewer described a very disorganized crew that took months to finish a job quoted at two to three weeks, with incorrect measurements leading to delays and do-overs on backsplash and cabinetry.
