Our story

About Us

J&L Construction is a minority owned construction company proudly serving Greensboro, Reidsville, High Point, Winston-Salem, Charlotte, and the surrounding areas. The name J&L comes from owner John Matthews' children, John and Leah, and represents a business built on family values. John's journey in construction started at age 9, when his father began teaching him the trade, patching holes and doing sheetrock mud work in closets before earning the chance to work in the main rooms. That lesson, that every detail matters and quality is earned through patience and hard work, has stayed with him ever since. Over the years, John became his dad's right-hand man, learning drywall, painting, plumbing, electrical work, and more, while also pursuing college courses and professional certifications to sharpen his craft. Today, with 10 years in business and a lifetime of hands-on experience behind him, John brings the values his father instilled in him to every job: integrity, pride, and doing the job right the first time. From sheetrock and painting to full remodels and custom tiny home builds, J&L Construction is committed to quality work, trustworthy service, and reliable results on every project.
