You won't find a better GC than Martyn. Great communicator, excellent crew and a high standard of work - all at a fair and competitive price. I started with small deck job, and then re-engaged him and his crew for phase two, three, and four of our landscaping project. Very happy and highly recommend.

My name is Rob Deits and along with my wife, Terri, we purchased a beautiful home in the Napa Valley in a community called The Napa Yacht Club. Our home is on the river with a beautiful water setting that is extremely deserving of an Outdoor kitchen & bar to enjoy the ambiance. After a couple of interviews with other outdoor contractors we found ourselves unsatisfied.
So naturally I " Googled" premier Northern California contractors back in October of 2020 during the pandemic. We found Martyn Peachey of JEC Stone out of Petaluma and the response was IMMEDIATE! He offered to come out the same day (a Saturday)and come see what we had in mind. the bond was certainly was there-we liked him from the beginning! He understood our needs & wants-especially after I told him we want "The Wow Factor".
We hit it off from the start, started planning, and moved our project ahead. Bottom line, we have one of the most beautiful, dramatic, outdoor, Bar & Grills in all of our neighborhood! We are the envy of our neighborhood! Everybody and his brother (and sister for that matter) wants to come hang out now! For anyone contemplating a quality project (indoors or out) and wants the best in craftsmanship, Martyn and his esteemed Team @ JEC Stone are your "go to" folks!
They are super flexible, understand your needs, have wonderful suggestions, and most importantly, have a "get it done attitude"! My wife and I are super pleased and our lifestyle has been super enriched due to JEC Stone-use these guys! Rob & Terri Deits

We hired JEC Stone to do redo fireplaces in our house. They removed one completely, and refaced the other with new stone. There was a significant amount of work involved, Martyn and his crew where very accommodating and helpful to figure out the best way to get the work done. The stonework in particular was done very well, I am happy with how everything turned out.

JEC Stone and Martyn Peachey installed a beautiful stone gas fire pit and stone patio in our backyard. We were impressed by their service from beginning to end. We were never rushed in our decisions and the communication was exemplary. Martyn made every effort to make sure we got what we wanted and expected. Martyn gave great input to the design and materials, was prompt with the bid and then they finished the job very quickly with a good sized capable and courteous crew.
The whole project was handled in a very professional manner and it was made clear that they wanted us to be happy with the final project. Martyn quickly followed up with questions we had after the installation as well. We are so happy we did it and chose them. We highly recommend JEC and would readily use them again.

Wonderful to work with! We love our grill area, hot tub area, and updated stone patio and water feature. Extremely impressed with Martyn and team, everyone was great to work with, and we truly appreciated the ideas on what to do as my fiance and I can sometimes be indecisive. Martyn has a wonderful eye for design and really helped make our backyard dream a reality. Highly recommend working with Jec Stone!

"We are very happy with the work that Martyn and JEC Stone did on our San Francisco home. The exterior of our home was completely transformed. Martyn did an excellent job of sourcing vendors for our new windows, front door, and garage door. We did not anticipate doing much work on our backyard, but with Martyn's vision, we created a more livable (and visually beautiful) back yard including a new custom deck, fence, and gates.
Our project came in on time and on budget. He arrived on time, every day, as did his crew. Everything was cleaned up at the end of a workday. Our neighbors have commented on how wonderful the house looks. Martyn will be our choice for future projects. We highly recommend him."

Martyn Peachey of JEC Stone Inc., is the consummate professional! Great vision, -- he's not only creative and intuitive, but he always places a priority on quality workmanship. My husband and I can't say enough about Martyn.his work ethic and integrity are uncommon. Martyn handled our large and complex construction job with a "can-do" attitude at every turn.
The finished product is amazingly unique and beautiful and is the result of Martyn's accumulated years of experience doing what he loves, as he creates lasting spaces for families such as ours to make memories for years to come. We feel fortunate and are very grateful to have met and worked with such a remarkable craftsman! If you have the opportunity to do the same.just say YES.

"Martyn Peachey is a close personal friend who we contracted for a landscaping and stonework job for our house in Petaluma. He is a man of outstanding character, who is committed to quality workmanship. He worked within our budget, and during the course of the job made several key suggestions that not only saved us money but made the final result a great deal better.
Working with Martyn is a pleasure, and he makes you feel like a valuable partner. His ideas are timely and creative, and he always has our bottom line in mind. His crew was professional and friendly and went out of their way to make sure we were satisfied. I would not hesitate to hire Martyn again for any project, large or small."

JEC Stone completed the construction of our outdoor kitchen island and we are extremely happy with the final result. After having spoken with several local general contractors, we felt JEC Stone was the only contractor with the expertise and flexibility to help us on our project. Martyn and his team are true professionals who were able to navigate through certain obstacles and brilliantly solved problems that we had unintentionally and unknowingly created by purchasing a DIY module kit and appliances ourselves from another third-party manufacturer. Martyn and his team were always on time, communicated with us often throughout the entire process, took the time to explain things to us, and answered all our (often dumb) questions.
Their attention to detail and the quality of their work were fantastic. In addition, we were very impressed with Martyn's network and connections, who were also highly-skilled, friendly, and efficient contractors. We are also grateful for Martyn and his team for being able to meet a tight deadline (We had the outdoor kitchen island ready in time for our daughter's birthday party!) The outdoor kitchen island turned out to be more beautiful than what we had hoped for and we could not be any happier. I would highly recommend JEC Stone and hope to work with them again in the near future on another project.

The beginning of the project of repairing steps to entry of house was a cost estimate, listened to what I wanted, and used materials that were apart of the old steps. They worked on Saturday and were on time. I asked for some new items on the job and they were able to make adjustments. They added special touches to the project that only made the job even better than what was asked for by me.
The workers never took a break but put energy and workmanship into their work. I love their personalities and caring that they put into the project. It was repairing steps not really of big project for this company but they made me feel that it was important and wanted to please me. I knew what I wanted done and they rose to my expectations.

We recently decided to replace our old, tired, worn out patio. We interviewed several companies and quickly decided that Martyn and JEC Stone was who we wanted to work with. Martyn listened to our ideas and came back with a proposal that was much, much better that anything we could have thought of. Martyn and his team were extremely friendly, responsive and professional. The job was completed on time and on budget and we're very, very pleased with the results. We highly recommend Martyn and JEC Stone.

A true professional! It was a pleasure doing business with Martyn and his team. No detail was left to chance. Martyn communicates clearly and with detail. No question was left unanswered. He takes ownership and pride in his project, making suggestions and changes to improve the outcome. His team is also professional, taking steps to ensure that our property, pool area, and landscaping were not negatively impacted. He completed the 4-week project on time, within the original bid and to our satisfaction. He over delivered!

Martyn and crew were a pleasure to work with. Always on time, always responsive to ideas, and full of well thought out solutions and suggestions. The job was much larger than we initially thought, due to the discovery of underground water we didn't anticipate, and JEC stuck with us to the end. We are so pleased with the final result. Have already recommended JEC to friends and neighbors.

I'm writing this review on a General Contractor that I've used several times and have found the rare find indeed. We're all looking for a General Contractor that will do what he/she says and at the price quoted. Rare, maybe impossible you ask? Yes indeed. But finally someone that knows the art of listening, professionalism and honesty. Finally!
If you're looking for a general contractor that is Honest, Professional & Flexible you need not look any further. I can't say enough for Martyn since he's proven himself countless times.
