They supposedly cleaned the carpets in our rental and did a poor job in my opinion...I wouldn't recommend this company.
Also, the link to their website seems to be having some problems...coincidence?
Jonny is awesome. I have so much good things to say about him, who is easy to communicate with, good at what he does, gets thing done on time, goes over his way to fix everything, got our budget under control, respectful to customer, responsive to our requests, clean up all the mess. Highly recommend him to anyone need a reliable contractor. We originally hired him to repair and replace two stairs, but end up with couple more things because we like his work and his work ethic. Good job Jonny!

There are not enough words to express how thankful we are to have worked with Joedy and his crew at JAZ Developments. We had a major leak in our home that resulted in needing not one, but two bathroom remodels, as well as a ceiling in desperate need of repair. He was a tireless advocate for us with the insurance company, documenting every last issue to ensure we would end up with a budget that reflected the repairs needed. From there, we worked collaboratively, Joedy with his calm, insightful, and thoughtful suggestions to stretch the budget, and me with a design plan that asked an awful lot. But JAZ Developments delivered. The process was as smooth as possible given we were doing major remodeling, and I arrived home every day to a house that was clean, cared for, and progressing! In a little over two months we were back in order and our bathrooms have never been more beautiful.
And additional and equally important note, the team that works for Joedy is awesome! Ricardo, the site foreman, is exceptional, and the other members of his team are just as terrific. We have two young children and not once did I ever hear an off-color word or cursing. They were respectful, thoughtful, and generous, going to far as to let our dog out to play and even bringing him a bone. Who does that these days?!
I can't sing JAZ Development's praises high enough. They are an exceptional team and I couldn't be happier with the work they did for us.

We've had JAZ Developments do several projects in our home. They've been well-priced, honest, and reliable every time. They will continue to be our go-to company for home repairs.

I was very pleased with the work they did to tile my bathrooms. Joedy and Ricardo are extremely customer-service oriented and they ensured that every detail about the work was done to my complete satisfaction. Joedy even came out several weeks after the job was done, at my request, to address one or two minor issues. They tell you when they are going to be there and the actually show up when they say they will and are very responsive to communications. I would not hesitate to recommend them.
Wow! We made the best choice in hiring JAZ Developments. Joedy helped us navigate a complete kitchen remodel, a master bathroom retreat, a guest bath along with rewiring the entire house and giving her all new plumbing, heating, and air. Our home was built in 1924 and now looks and feels so inviting. My husband and I are procrastinators, so it was nice getting homework from Joedy to do over the weekend or what to shop for at the time. He is so kind and explained all choices and why and never made us feel rushed. We'll miss his wisdom and laughter around the house.
The crew at JAZ Developments is a wonderful team that works together, solves problems and even eats lunch together. You will not hear blazing music, naughty language or smell cigarettes. You will know exact arrival times and get a goodbye after cleanup and before they lock up. JAZ Developments also has fantastic sub-contractors when needed, but Joedy is skilled in all matters or will learn to get the job done. If he has time for your project, you are one lucky customer!

They did a wonderful job updating our bathroom, put in a new shower with marble and tiles. A great team of people, very professional and responsible. Joedy was very easy to communicate and work with. He answered any questions we had promptly. We love our new bathroom! Highly recommend them!!!

I had them do some repair work as well as some cosmetic work inside my home. They were wonderful! They're prices were great and I never felt like I was being ripped off. They were dependable, honest and trustworthy. I was in the home with both of my kids while the work was being done and I felt 100% safe the whole time. I will be using JAZ Developments again in the future. I always get complements on the work that was done in my home.
This is long over due. Joedy and his team built us a beautiful ground level deck for our backyard. We had a small problem with the fascia on it when it was done. Joedy listened to my suggestions, came out more than once due to my crazy schedule. Did a fantastic job without a smirk or grumble. Very professional. Kudos's for job well done. Jerry G.
I had Joedy and Eric insulate one of the room wall at my house last Monday. I highly recommend JAZ Developments, most especially Joedy. First, he's very professional. He had a written estimate after few hours from speaking with him over the phone. Second, he made sure that he's on top of everything with his employee. Third, They were very fast, they finished the job in less than 8 hrs. And also made sure that it was done professionally. And lastly, they are friendly and clean (they made sure to clean the area before they left.)
This is a long overdue review for Joedy and his team. He has helped us with numerous projects around our house, and as I sat down to get ready to call him this evening about another one... I realize I haven't done my due diligence in reviewing him!
We live in a Sacramento house that is over 100 years old. Joedy and his team came in and converted our nook into a nook + 1/2 bath (much needed in a 2/1), as well as updating some cabinets in our laundry room to give us some much needed pantry space. While he was here he even looked into a problem we were having with our roof, and took care of it for us.
His quotes were fair and always came in accurately. His timelines were spot on. He was communicative, responding to texts and patiently answering all of our questions, and most importantly - we trusted him in our home. Additionally, all of the projects he worked on he was very careful to consider the original charm of the home and ensure that it was still featured.
We recommend Joedy to any of our friends looking for a contractor, and if he can't fix the problem/project, he will refer you to someone who can.
Joedy and his crew are amazing ! They just finished adding a 1/2 bathroom in our house, converted from an old laundry room closet. Everyone on the team was professional, nice, and very easy to work with. Before the project started, I was picturing a pretty basic, Home Depot style bathroom, being that this is a pretty small space, no shower, etc. What they did for us was more amazing than I could have imagined! Here are some before and after pictures, from an old laundry room closet, to a fabulous new 1/2 bath! We will def give Joedy a call for future home construction projects!
So I will preface this by saying that JAZ has not yet done any work on our home, but the communication was ON POINT! He even referred us to (a well rated) competitor in case we were not able to wait for him. Companies that are good usually have a wait, I learned much to my chagrin. I cannot speak to his end product, but communication and honesty are on point with this company, which is hard to come by!
I have wanted my kitchen flooring replaced and my bathroom ceiling repaired for years. My husband was in construction but never had the time to work on his own house. Joedy came as a referral from my neighbor. I was am so impressed with his professionalism. I really had no time to look for flooring or paint, so I had to rely on Joedy's expertise. The work was done so fast and looks terrific. I highly recommend this company. I am a business owner and know how very important customer service can be to a business and I rate this business in the five star..

Joedy and his group have done multiple jobs for us over the last several years. They gutted and custom remodeled our kitchen. They added a second bathroom and walk in closet and most recently, they added a beautiful deck between our house and our pool. Besides being great craftsmen and knowledgeable contractors, they are also all very kind.

I have had JAZ Developments do a number of projects on my home from fence repair to fan installation and fixing my oven. The quality of work is always terrific, they are friendly and transparent with costs and labor. I will continue to use them for needs as they arise.

We just completed a big remodel to our existing ADU in our backyard. Joedy and the team at JAZ Developments did a phenomenal job. Key things to note from our experience: Communication: Joedy is a great communicator, whether through email or by text or in person, I always felt informed and up to date on the schedule, hiccups, or week ahead. He was responsive to questions and any concerns that I had throughout our 5 month project. Craftsmanship: The entire team is highly skilled in carpentry, tiling, and finish work and take pride in their craft and are detail oriented. The work of the subs who were brought on equally met the standard and quality of work on the project. Family owned: For us, there is always an intangible benefit to working with a small family owned business. You get to know the people who are on your job site every day, you can see that the crew love working together and value each other's hard work and input. For us, that type of dynamic really made us feel like we were in good hands during what is inevitably a stressful time. We're looking forward to part 2 of our project with JAZ!
Remodel details: 1 BR, 1BA; full kitchen and bathroom remodel, partial new foundation, new roof, dual split unit heat/air.
I had both of my bathrooms remodeled. JAZ provided a detailed bid which was greatly appreciated. They showed up on time each day, cleaned up before they left, were professional, answered my questions and provided input when decisions had to be mad, and were concerned about the cats who live here. Their attention to the entire process really made an impression and I will definitely rehire them when I remodel my kitchen. They were a pleasure to work with. Thank you so much for the beautiful bathrooms.
We had our house built over 40 years ago and was long overdue for a major facelift. Every year we would go Home & Landscape Expo at Cal Expo in January. We had several contractors come over to share ideas and give us estimates. We just never pulled the trigger. When we got serious about remodeling our kitchen, I started looking at contractor reviews on yelp. JAZ Developments stood out. I called and Joedy Zapara come out to look at our project. I was immediately impressed with his experience, honesty and sense of humor. His references were unanimously positive. Joedy's bid was competitive, complete and prompt. His time frame worked for us. Hired.
Joedy worked with Sac County's building permit folks to get our plans approved quickly. Demo began on the contracted date. We only added 8.5 square feet to our kitchen nook area, but it required taking out an external deck, removing a wall and resupporting the ceiling. We now have new cabinets, countertops, kitchen appliances, tile flooring, windows and a wall seat. We had the house painted inside and out.
Joedy and his crew became family when they were here. No smoking, no alcohol, and no swearing. They showed up on time and cleaned up their mess before they left. There was at least 2 workers (often more) here every day. His subs were excellent (Sergio-cabinets, Capital City Granite-countertops, David-painting).
We love our new house. We can't say enough good things about the process and the results. Joedy is a real pro and I'm so glad we used yelp to find him. Things worked out so well for us that our daughter is having JAZ (Joedy) build an 3-car garage with living quarters above it behind their house in Midtown.

Joedy of Jaz Developments has done multiple jobs for my business, I have yet to find a project he cannot come up with an affordable solution for. He is also a well-known community speaker, church leader, school advocate, humanitarian, and one of the most trustworthy people I have ever met. His work is always done in a timely manner, exceeds my expectations, and beats every bid in town. I will continue to keep him on speed-dial and refer him to everyone I know.
Had Joedy and his crew install bamboo floors and some bathroom lights and vents. Quick response to my inquiry. Easy to schedule and everyone arrived on time and was a pleasure to work with. Added a few more items to the list and they never seemed annoyed or bothered by my requests. Cleaned up every night before they left and their attention to detail and the fact that everyone was conscientious of their work and took pride in a job well done makes it easy to recommend JAZ Developments. Thanks Joedy and your guys for an amazing job!

Joedy is fantastic! He and his crew just completed some minor remodeling to my kitchen and family room. New built in cabinets beside the fireplace, new quartz counter, sink, faucet and backsplash. Joedy worked with me in structuring the bid with and without a fireplace remodel. Great communication, even when project was off schedule due to custom cabinets which are made off site which Joedy could not control. Joedy is very professional and I would highly recommend Jaz Developments!

We recently had JAZ Developments tear out the outer facade of our useless fireplace and put in an amazing built-in cabinet. This was a pretty extensive job that required a lot of wall and floor repair as well as electrical work (we had wall sconces taken out and in-ceiling LED lights put in). They also did a small remodel on our coat closet to make it more usable. We are thrilled with the work Joedy and team did. We used JAZ on a recommendation from a friend and are very glad we did. We liked Joedy as well as valued his work. He was creative and helped us decide on all the best options (something I value highly in a contractor). I was completely comfortable leaving him with access to the house while we were at work. He went above and beyond in things like climbing to the top of our very steep roof to seal the top of the chimney and also moving our cable outlet when the company couldn't get out to do it. The built-in cabinet itself is fantastic. I highly recommend Sergio, the cabinet maker that JAZ works with. I'm already looking forward to the next project we can do with JAZ Developments!
JAZ development is a professional company with professional customer service. They do a thorough job from start to finish including cleanup. Cleanup is one of my pet peeves as it seems to be falling by the wayside but JAZ covers that as well. Friendly people who care about what they do!

I work in real estate and property management and have used Jaz Developments for years now. In my line of work, vendors that don't cut it, don't last. These guys are not flaky like so many contractors these days. They've always shown great communication (which is so important for me), been on-time, and delivered the product they said they would. I value their honesty, as I've entrusted them with some big projects. They've always gone the extra mile for me to make owners and tenants happy. They may not be the cheapest out there, but I've learned the hard way, you get what you pay for!

If you are in need of any remodel work, your best and best choice is JAZ Developments. Joedy Zapara, owner is knowledgeable, easy to work with and always available by phone if you have a concern or question or just checking on scheduling. In addition his rates are more than fair. His staff are awesome too. They all worked long hours and made our remodel perfect. It was so perfect our home sold in 4 days!
Joedy will work with you until you are pleased with the end result. WE highly recommend you contact Joedy. You won't be disappointed.
Johnny, Joedy, and Antonio restored our ~70 year old 3-stall barn. A couple other contractors were not interested and even suggested demolition. JAZ saw the possibilities and we are delighted with the result, it's better than when it was first built! It was a pleasure to get to know Johnny and Joedy and we look forward to working with them again.

This review is So LONG overdue.....I found Jaz Developments through Yelp about 1 1/2 years ago. My husband and I moved back into the house that I grew up in . The house was built in 1958 so needless to say my list of home improvement was a mile long. First project: I had them install Bamboo hardwood flooring throughout the entire house and also knock down a wall to create a pass through between living room and family room. I also had a lot of heavy junk in my backyard that they offered to haul away free of charge! I was so impressed with their professionalism and exceptional work ethics. I loved them so much that since then I had them back to replace all interior doors, closets and remodel three complete bathrooms.
There are not enough words to express how grateful I am to have found Joedy, Ricardo, Blake and the rest of Joedy's exceptional crew. The pleasure was all ours. Thank you guys SO MUCH from the bottom of our hearts.
I could not possibly say anything better about Joedy and his crew. We are THRILLED with the work that they did for us. The JAZ team helped us build an entire garage/office on the side of house and they did an IMPECCABLE job. From the moment we contacted Joedy to the very end of the project - they have been a dream to work with. They are detail oriented, kind, great communicators and just all around an awesome crew of people. Could not recommend more highly!

We worked with Joedy and team on a big home renovation project last summer (June - November). We bought a very old fixer upper in East Sacramento - the before and after pictures are the best testament to their work. I did a ton of research and was let down / did not align with many contractors I met before Joedy. Starting from our first phone conversation through to the end of our project, he and team exceeded our expectations. They were super flexible, accommodating, and communicative (hard to find in this industry!). We are so happy with the final product - which included a room addition, a full kitchen and bath renovation, removing a wall, replacing a window, and so much more. We're thankful and hope to continue to work with Joedy, Blake, and the team for projects down the line (as they never end!).
All the 5 star positive reviews are absolutely right on! We just had some work done on my mothers home that we had been putting off for way too long. JAZ Developments was just terrific in every way, from start to finish.
Thank you Joedy Zapara and crew!!
