“If you are looking for a contractor that makes remodeling or building an enjoyable, creative process, I strongly recommend Ken Eckelkamp of ECI Florida.

After establishing a tight budget and timeline and writing a detailed description of the job, I had four recommended contractors do an 'apples to apples' bid. All had some issues with the job, foresaw problems, bid more than my budget and gave me erroneous information.

With years of experience, Ken knew exactly what needed to be done to open up the walls, had  good ideas, and submitted a firm bid thousands of dollars less than the others. Thus began a thoroughly enjoyable remodel.

 Ken is highly professional, flexible, very pleasant and always on time. He anticipated and solved the problems that emerge on any job and stayed under budget. I ended up getting just what I wanted at a very reasonable price. He enthusiastically facilitated money saving ideas.

   Ken always responded immediately to questions and kept me informed as I was traveling. His wide experience, knowledge of local high quality subcontractors, good ideas, work ethic and pleasant personality made the whole process fun. His expertise resulted in a finished product better than I had expected - a pretty unique experience!”

“I have had the pleasure of working with Ken  at JMC Communities for over 30 years. During that time Ken served as Project Manager or VP of Construction for approximately 2500 homes and condominiums in 10 communities including such notable local developments as Ovation, Florencia, Bacopa Bay, The Bellamy, Meridian, Mandalay Beach Club and many others. Ken is a great leader who earned the respect and trust of homeowners, building officials, subcontractors, other team members, and our design professionals. He is a true construction professional  who I would highly recommend.”
