I would waste your time on getting bid from from this guy. There are other really good contractors out there that will respond to you and get the job done!

I contracted with John Hancock Contracting in January of 2015. They tore my house apart and cut corners putting it back together. Every time I pointed out things that they were doing wrong I got empty promises on how the issues would be resolved. In January of 2016 I fired them from the job and gave them instructions on how to contact me for their tools. Instead of contacting me, they broke into my house and took their tools.

After they left I discovered that they filed fraudulent building permits with the City of Pittsburgh. It cost me $33k with another contractor to fix this mess.

Please take my experience as a lesson and stay far away from this con artist.

Called John and set up an appoint to look at a 35-40k bathroom remodel. He came on time looked around around and seemed interested in the job, said give him a week to bid/spec. I called and left a message after a week with no response. I then emailed which he responded "I'll get something to you very soon". i waited another week called and emailed, and got no response. Communication is key and apparently he lost his. I have since bid the remodel out and secured a contractor.....

I don't recommend this company. Poor quality work. They put in my new floors prior to painting, then splattered paint all over them, installed the new pipes for my clawfoot tub so close to the wall that I couldn't fit a baseboard behind it, workers smoked inside while doing the work, and never cleaned up after themselves. I walked in once while my bedroom was being painted and they had not washed the walls and were just rolling the paint over dirt and cobwebs. These are just a handful of examples of the issues I have had. At the time of this posting we have now gone almost a month past the contract end date, and it's dragging on. Talk to other contractors in the area and they will let you know this company's reputation. I wish I had. One positive: they stayed within my budget, but at what cost to my sanity and quality of work? I would never use them again. - Originally posted this review in September 2015. Update (June 2016) They still have not installed the final window they were supposed to. It's a custom window they had to order and according to the window company is still sitting at their warehouse. Every few weeks I try to call or text John to ask when they'll be putting it in, but never hear back.

They are awesome. I hired them to do my 203K renovations. They stayed in my budget and made my house look amazing. The workers are very nice and they showed me everything they were doing when I would stop by. John himself is very nice and informs you if they need you do something. I would recommend them to anyone that needs to do a 203k in the Pittsburgh area.

They give you quality work at a fair price!!
