Testimonial

“I had Jaffa Group do a small remodeling job on a bedroom and bathroom. My home was originally designed and built by them as well. The remodel went very well. I am completely happy with their work. They are very professional and very neat when they come in and do a job. I would certainly recommend them as builders and designers.”
