Our Team

Jacob Salerno — Owner & Lead

Jacob started Salerno Remodeling LLC with one goal: be the contractor he wished existed when he was growing up watching homeowners get burned by people who didn't show up, didn't communicate, and didn't stand behind their work.

With 8+ years of hands-on remodeling experience, Jacob personally manages every project from the first estimate to the final walkthrough. He's not the guy who sells you and disappears — he's the guy with the tools in his truck every morning.

Jacob holds his NJ Home Improvement Contractor (HIC) certification, carries full general liability insurance, and has built a reputation across South Jersey that's entirely word-of-mouth.

A Small, Trusted Crew

We don't run a revolving door of workers. The people who show up on your job are people Jacob has worked alongside for years — tradespeople he trusts to hold the same standard he holds himself to.

You'll see the same faces from the first day to the last. No strangers showing up unannounced, no "who are these guys?" moments. Just a consistent, professional crew who treat your home with the same respect they'd want shown to their own.

Licensed Trades We Trust

For specialty work — plumbing, electrical, HVAC — we bring in licensed subcontractors we've worked with for years. These aren't names pulled off a list. They're tradespeople Jacob has vetted personally and would recommend to his own family.

Every trade on a Salerno job site has been screened for licensing, insurance, and quality of work. Jacob coordinates and supervises all of them directly, so you still have one point of contact and one standard of accountability throughout the entire project.
