The experience i had with Taylor county construction was phenomenal they very attentive to our needs they completed a flooring install (hardwood flooring) and new doors. i personally saw John and his superintendent every day They did what they said they were gonna do and even though i couldn't afford to do the closets. John surprised me by having those done what a surprise Thank you Taylor county construction I would definitely hire them again thank you again

Here is the original review: “DO NOT hire Taylor County Construction and John V. to do any work for you. John's supervisor quit showing up two weeks into the job, despite a contractual obligation to have supervision on site at all times, forcing me to attend to the job daily and supervise. John deliberately overcharged me nearly double the agreed upon hours for electrical work, and when I called him, he admitted the fraud was intentional, and expected me to catch it, and call to talk to him about it. Workers stopped showing up at reasonable start times, and work quality deteriorated immediately. Broken windows were left installed, ceiling tiles were left broken and with hand-prints dented in them, and they actually painted around a mirror hanging on a wall, rather than remove it and paint the whole wall. I was eventually introduced to the guy that was supposed to be the new supervisor. Turns out, he was the one that broke the windows during installation and left them. During my conversation with the new supervisor, he asked to see a copy of the plans, as he had no idea what work was to be performed. Part of the job involved an asbestos abatement. John was not supposed to be involved in the asbestos abatement, but inserted himself, and somehow offended the abatement company enough that the owner called me and told me that he wasn't sure that his technician would even work with John, but that they would knock a thousand dollars off of the price of the abatement to not have to deal with John again, in addition to other compromises they made with me to help salvage the situation. After seeing how John's interaction with this company went, I became concerned that he would equally mismanage dealings with the plumbing contractors, who were of my chosing, and with whom I had a long history. I told John that I wanted to remove the plumbing from his responsibility, and have him only supervising his own men forward. John responded by immediately telling me that he required me to put the balance of the contracted amount into an escrow account that he could access, and cease any communication with his employees. All of the work performed to this point was off contract work, staying busy doing small jobs until the abatement was performed, and paid for separately. The initial 50% deposit was virtually untouched. On top of the 50% deposit, John cashed a check, $1500 of which was intended to cover the asbestos inspection, which he never paid. When I refused, he quit the job. John initially admitted he owed me a return of money I had paid. When I asked him to prepare his accounting of what he believed he owed me, he told me he would get back to me in 60 days, which has since elapsed. His last email said that if I'd wanted any money back, I should have demanded less. Now my lawyers have filed a suit against him. Whatever he promises you, it's going to cost you much more.”

My name is Raul Valdez i am a resident of Abilene TX, I hired John Vaughn Taylor county construction to build me a deck, 18*24 my whole goal was to have something with little maintenance as we are getting up in our day. The solution John saw, square tubing, composite decking and aluminum railing he topped it off with an oil based exterior paint and it looks beautiful, As soon as they were on Monday by Friday they were gone very painless. I would hire and trust them to do work for me again very grateful, i did run over a screw and got a flat right away Mr Vaughn replaced at his expense again thank you

A wonderful company, a complete home remodel done in the allotted amount of time. They retextured the walls and ceiling and remodeled my kitchen and bath. They gave me a number we agreed to it and it stayed that way. My only regret is that we don’t have the budget for the deck I want them to build, a special thanks to his son Alex what a wonderful delightful kid very respectful and handy. Thank you guys so much
