The first year sales were approximately $21,000.00. The business was operated out of the owner's home. In 1977, John H. Allen Construction moved out of the home office and into its first office at 425 E. Chester. That move was the turning point in the Company's increased business. Business owner, John H. Allen, began building a solid customer base with local insurance agents to handle their property losses. Insurance restoration business helped carry the Company through the winter months and was virtually recession proof.

I needed a bathroom remodel & was given Phillip Allen's name. He came right out when I called, but when I reached out to him to move forward with the work, he never got back to me. I reached out once again and called him directly. We spoke and we made a plan on moving forward, but again, he never called me back. If you don't want to take my job, I understand.
But it's unprofessional to not even bother to call me back.twice. I was left hanging and lost several weeks on the project waiting. I've moved on but would not recommend this company.

John Allen, integrity, experience and excellent workmanship. They stay on the job until it gets done and they complete the job in a timely manner. John Allen Construction has done several jobs on my home and I have been very impressed by the work and the people. I am very particular about details, what I want and the end result, so for some, I'm not an easy customer, but John Allen Construction has always been excellent to work with, especially when I get creative. I highly recommend this company for any work that you need in your home.
