Who we are

Gulf Coast roots.
Built to scale.

JDON, Inc. is a Largo-based interiors subcontractor, owned and run by Jay Engels. Since 2021 we have built metal stud framing, drywall and acoustical ceilings for general contractors across Tampa Bay and Central Florida.

Multifamily towers, resort hospitality, clubhouse renovations and commercial interiors: we staff every job to the schedule it needs, whatever its size. We bid clean scopes, self-perform the work, and stay reachable from bid day to closeout.
