I have worked with James for around 6-8 months and even met him in person in Daytona for a business meeting. My initial impression of James is that he is a knowledgeable straight shooter, very detail-oriented and punctual. He built my very elaborate web page in a few months and to this day he is still inclined to assist where needed to get me, my company, and my web page to where I want them to be, which is a franchise business. His communication is impeccable, respectful and to the point... James is my guy!
The team at Grindstone Designs really helped me to take my website to the next level. Not only are they extremely knowledgeable and easy to work with, they are great people all around and make you feel heard. 10/10 company.

James was on the money with my website! He exceeded every expectation I had set by miles, communicated every detail thoroughly, and even beat his own timeline for completion. I can't recommend a better company to do business with!
