“My wife and I recently purchased a home in the Holiday City South section. This was a recent renovation done by the Jack Duke group. The renovation was top to bottom and the workmanship and attention to detail was far above any of the work done in other homes we had visited. The house design was flawless and the final product was something you may see on one of the many fixer-up TV shows. However, the most impressive thing to date has been in dealing with the human side of this company. From the initial dealings with the real estate agent to the several follow up visits from the contracting crew (which were done at our request for additional upgrades) the people were gracious, accommodating, professional and personable”.

To Chris & the crew of Jack Duke;

Thank you! You guys did a beautiful job! You were able to take our vision and made it into a reality. Your added suggestions made our kitchen/den/laundry room more beautiful than we could have imagined.

Your crew was not only skillful, trustworthy, and easy to work with, they cleaned up after themselves at the end of each day. The time our home was under construction was shorter than expected. Schedules were kept and stress levels were low. We are very happy with the end results!

Thanks again

Jackie and Chris (JackDuke Designs),

We just want to thank you and your crew for making this house our home. This was a total renovation. When we first walked through, all it had was new walls & cabinets so we were able to customize it. We gave you are wishlist & you work wonders. We pressured you for a six week closing that you met. The house turned our better then we could have imagined. Any small issues we had & have were & will be taken care of. We moved in six months ago and love all the compliments form everyone that visits. So many of our new neighbors could’t wait to come in and see the reconstruction of the home. You & Jackie are not only our contractors but have become friends. You take pride and compassionate & care in your work and your buyers. We have and will continue to refer your friends & family to JackDuke Design.

Thanks you for creating our dream house

Dear Chris, Jackie and workers,

I live in Florida full time and I inherited a Lakeview Model in Holiday City South when my Mom passed away. My Mom had most of the house up to date except for the kitchen which had that old 80’s design that was dark, small and outdated. My husband and I looked at many homes that were being renovated in Holiday City, but were always impressed with the quality and design of JackDuke homes. We met with Chris and were immediately impressed with his knowledge of construction and his vision for a new kitchen. I found the kitchen I liked in one of his renovations and handed him the keys to the house with no reservations or fears as we went to Florida for the winter – I knew we were in good hands. The contract spelled out everything in detail along with drawings of the proposed kitchen so I could visualize it. Demo day till completion was 6 weeks! He moved all my furniture, protected the existing hardwood floors and cleaned everything from top to bottom for the big reveal. I knew what it was going to look like, but when I walked through my beautiful new front door for the first time and saw straight through to the gorgeous new kitchen with the beautiful archway, it brought tears to my eyes. I only wish my Mom could have seen this completed before she passed. We eliminated the den and made a huge kitchen with an 8 foot island and a large pantry replacing the double side windows.  It is so bright an airy, lots of nice touches like the pot filler, farm sink, timeless subway tile for the backsplash, pull out sliders in the cabinets, a built in wine rack above the refrigerator, a contained garbage and recycling bin, and new hardwood floors which he perfectly blended into the existing floors. Jackie was such a help when I had trouble picking out pendant lighting to go with my new dining room fixture, it is sensational. I could go on and on. My friends jaw dropped when they walked in and saw the transformation. It has just the right amount of “glam” that makes you say “wow”. It looks like a kitchen you would see on HGTV.  I wish I had that kitchen here in Florida, but for now, I will go to NJ for the summer and enjoy this beautiful transformation. Thank you again to Chris, Jackie and the crew of guys who were all so professional.

In September 2018, my wife and I purchased one of your designer homes in Holiday City West, Toms River, New Jersey. This home is located at 6-Exitir Street. As soon as we walked in the front door of the house, we were amazed!!

First, let us tell you that your design idea for this Shoreview Model, was perfect. During your renovation, you took great advantage of the layout of the home. The bedrooms are a nice size, you added an extra room going out to the screened Sunroom and the washer/dryer room was very creative as a pantry/ extra storage area. The engineered hardwood floors are a perfect shade of dark brown. We both loved it. The two bathrooms are spectacular with smart upgrades and enough room to take care of one’s needs. My favorite room in the house is the kitchen. It is incredible!! The extra-wide galley-like kitchen is a perfect workplace and the cabinets you installed were a dream come true with the additional sliding drawer and slo-close features. The breakfast bar is comfortable and roomy. The appliances are beautiful, the large sink is an excellent choice, and the pot filler over the stove is the icing on the cake. It will make pasta night preparation so easy.
The crown moldings are so artistic and perfectly installed. We are so pleased with the way you included them in every room and around every doorway.  Also, thank you for the new roof and the new garage door and opener. It’s much appreciated.

When MaryEllen and I visited the house, it took our breath away. When we met you there, we were so impressed with your passion and pride in the work you and your team did to make this house into our new home.

We didn’t waste a minute to draw up a contract with our realtor.

We’ve had so many compliments from our friends and family on your work and design. We would gladly give a five star recommendation to your company. Your work and professionalism is exemplary. Once again, thank you for all of the work you have done to create a home we love to live in and one that we can be proud of.
