Experience Matters ..
JMS-LLC is a fourth-generation family owned company, with many decades of solid construction industry experience. The company was started during 1934 in Houston, Texas and was a market leader, building large-scale FHA & VA housing subdivisions. During 1964, the company was moved to southwest New Mexico and for 15 years, developed and built regional large-scale company townsites for Phelps Dodge Copper Corporation in Playas & Tyrone, New Mexico; and Morenci & Douglas, Arizona.
In 1979, the company moved to Arizona. The economy was booming and the company continued the family tradition of building tract and custom home subdivisions, apartments and commercial buildings as a multi-trade subcontractor and general contractor. As “we had always done our own work”, instead of subcontracting all trades to other companies, the decision to start our own subcontracting divisions was a good choice. In Arizona, the company subcontracted multiple trades on thousands of single-family homes and 100’s of multi-family projects from prominent national construction companies. Weary of “big city life”, the company was moved in 1997 to Oregon. Since that time the tradition continued, working regionally as a multi-trade subcontractor and general contractor. As a multi-trade subcontractor, we worked on 100’s of private projects, including multi-family complexes, apartments, assisted living facilities, hotels & commercial buildings. General Contractor projects include numerous single-family homes in Oregon and several large-scale apartments & hotels regionally.
Our belief is…
Because high labor, material, land and financing costs result in tight profit margins, cutting corners has become general practice in the construction industry. Exceptions do exist and JMS-LLC is proud to be among that elite group. We do it by watching overhead costs, 'kicking our own tires' and 'doing our own work'. One will always find us in the field during all phases of construction, quality checking whatever we build. By working closely with material suppliers, other subcontractors, valued employees and clients, we want to be a valuable team member helping build the best possible product. Our efforts result in quality workmanship, solid comfort, livability, innovative styling, unique features & affordability.”
Key words are “by doing our own work”. Again, instead of subcontracting every trade, our company has always been active in all the trades except plumbing, HVAC, and electrical. From layout to trenching footings, setting concrete forms to building masonry walls, rough framing to roofing, drywall to doors & cabinets, painting to flooring, fencing to landscaping .. JMS-LLC has done it all.
Today, our company teams with multi-skilled workers and furnishes labor & material packages for multiple trades including: wood & metal rough framing, steel erection, fiber cement siding, stucco (EFIS), and concrete. Our company is mobile, licensed in several western states, and has the necessary experience, manpower, equipment, supplier contacts and resources to handle any size project.
Today and yesteryear, we have continued family traditions and offer excellent workmanship, timely performance and competitive prices. We take pride in our work and strive to be a teammate on every project with owners, developers, investors and general contractors.
JMS-LLC looks forward to working with you!
