Joey Gedgaud

Most projects here start at forty dollars an hour, or they get bid out at a flat rate if a homeowner would rather see one number before anyone swings a hammer. That single pricing line tells you more about the operation than the rest of the page combined. Joey Gedgaud runs JTG, LLC, a residential remodeling and demolition outfit working out of Fargo, and the money question is answered near the top instead of hidden behind a quote request.

Remodeling, demolition, and the work in between

The service list is broad but grounded in the kind of jobs that fill a contractor's week. Drywall repairs. Bathroom and kitchen remodels. Basic flooring, painting, decks, siding, and the small fixes most crews treat as beneath them. At the other end sit full home and apartment gut-jobs, plus demolition and junk removal for anything that needs tearing out before a rebuild can start.

The demolition piece is worth flagging on its own, since plenty of remodelers subcontract the messy tear-out and haul-away; keeping it in-house means a single crew can take a room from stripped studs back to finished, which is exactly what an investor on a tight rehab window wants to hear.

The range is stated plainly, without dressing up a minor repair as a transformation, which is the part worth noting. A cracked wall and a full apartment overhaul are both on the menu, and the site of Joey Gedgaud does not pretend the two are the same size of job.

Pricing that stays legible

The hourly floor is the anchor, and a few sensible terms sit around it. A down payment is usually needed to get a project moving. Scheduling, though, can be reserved without paying anything up front, a small courtesy for anyone juggling a flip timeline. Flat-rate bids are on offer for people who want the number locked before a single wall comes down.

None of this is unusual for the trade. But seeing it written out saves the awkward first call where you fish for a rough figure, and Joey Gedgaud has put the terms where a prospective client can read them cold.

Who the jobs are pitched at

The work Joey Gedgaud advertises is aimed squarely at property flippers, real estate investors, and homeowners staring down a renovation. That is a deliberate audience, and it shapes how everything is described.

Joey Gedgaud makes a point of being an investor himself, and that is the detail that gives the pitch weight. A contractor who has bought, fixed, and held property understands why an investor cares about turnaround and budget in a way a pure builder might not. He describes himself as someone who has run these projects firsthand, which lines up with the property management and investment background stated elsewhere.

Whether it translates to better work on site is something only a finished job can prove, but the framing is honest about who it wants to hear from, and it explains why the pricing and terms read like they were written for someone counting holding costs rather than picking paint swatches for a forever home.

Credentials behind the tool belt

The stated qualifications are specific enough to check. Licensed and insured. Three-plus years of full-time contracting, five years in property management, and a real estate investment background layered on top. That mix of hands-on trade time and management experience reads as a fuller picture than a bare "licensed contractor" line would give.

Experience claims are easy to write and harder to verify from a webpage, so they read best as a starting point for the reference checking any homeowner should do regardless. Still, the numbers are concrete, and concrete numbers are at least falsifiable. The presentation from Joey Gedgaud does not lean on vague reassurance where a figure would do.

Reaching him and the trail of feedback

Contact is the strongest part of the whole thing. A phone number and an email sit right on the page, there is a contact form, and a Facebook presence under the name Fargo Remodeling and Demo gives another way in. Reaching Joey Gedgaud is not gated behind a form-only wall, and nothing about getting in touch is buried.

Outside feedback amounts to two listings, and neither one is deep. A Birdeye page listed as Joey Gedgaud Construction, JTG, LLC carries a five-star rating, though it rests on a single review, one that praises reliability and work ethic. A Yelp listing exists under Joey Gedgaud in Moorhead, but it showed no visible rating or review count. One genuine, glowing comment is a fair start, not yet a track record, and a single data point deserves to be read as exactly that.

The rest of the search noise had nothing to do with the business. Reviews for a television show sharing the first name kept surfacing, which is a reminder that a common name and a young review history make outside verification harder, not impossible.

Weighed against what a Fargo homeowner or a nearby investor can check, the page does well on the points it controls directly. Joey Gedgaud lists his services in plain language, prices the common ones openly, states qualifications that can be confirmed, and answers the phone at a number printed in the open. What sits outside his control, the reputation trail, comes down to a single five-star Birdeye review and a Yelp page with no score attached yet, which is a fair amount to know before making a call and not much more than that.
