We have recommended Mr O'Brien to clients of ours to carry out several different building projects. These projects have always come in on time and on price. Our clients have thanked us in particular for putting him forward for pricing work. They were all very pleased with the quality of his work and his attention to detail.
He has developed an apartment block for us and individual houses of a very high standard for instance a gentleman called Peter Sellers who works in the mIddle East and who was involved in building the F1 Track in Dubai and also Asst Manager Tony Lennott of the Bank of America. These are just two people who were very happy with the quality and price of the work and our office are only too pleased to recommend Mr O'Brien for any work at any time.

JOB Builders acted as both Main Contractor and Project Supervisor Construction Stage (PSCS) on a number of small to medium scale projects over the last number of years where Axo Architects administered the contracts. The projects generally required a high level of coordination, flexibility and ultimately a very strong commitment to deliver quality.

The projects were successfully completed on time, within budget and to an extremely high standard by JOB Builders. We have always found that the company’s commitment to quality, personal attention and programme to be very satisfactory.
We have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending JOB Builders for any type of building project, particularly where there is a requirement for a hands-on approach and a high level of finish.
We will be happy to discuss any aspect of this reference should the need arise.

We engaged JOB builders to extend our old farmhouse. The project came with plenty of the complications and unexpected requirements which come when working with older buildings - all of which were handled with a minimum of fuss. At no point did John put a problem back on us the client. Instead he came up with a solution based on his experience and in every case we were delighted with the outcome. Always sincere and upfront to deal with: John, Tommy and the crew completed the extension in a way which exceeded our expectations, was on schedule and within budget. A very genuine and experienced group of builders - highly recommended.

Over the past 10 years, I have been the Consultant Engineer on numerous projects where John O'Brien was the Contractor. From an Engineering perspective, John is professional and his work is always of an exceptional standard. He consistently shows a high level of care and attention to detail throughout the building process. Most notably, I recently worked alongside John during the construction of Tourmakeady’s new sports hall. Despite budget and time constraints, John gave 110% to ensure the project was of the highest standard and completed on time and within budget. I would be more than happy to recommend John O’Brien to anyone who is constructing a new property.
