A Legacy of Dependability

Ballou Enterprises was founded on the principles of honest work and reliable service. We understand the unique needs of Hampton Roads property owners because we live and work here. From small repairs to large projects, we build long-term relationships through every job we complete.

Our Foundation

When we commit to a job, we show up ready to work. We pride ourselves on reliability, professionalism, and delivering consistent quality our customers can trust.

Strong Communication

Clear communication and honest recommendations are at the core of our business. We believe great service starts with keeping customers informed every step of the way.

Quality Workmanship

From small repairs to property improvements and rental turnovers, we focus on clean, professional results built to last.

James "Ashton" Ballou Jr

Owner / Operator

Born right here in Virginia Beach, VA, I've spent my entire life in our beautiful coastal community, from Mexican white sauce to tuning out jet noises and even complaining about tunnel traffic. I'm a local through and through, and you're not just a customer, you're a neighbor.

I was raised to do unto others as you would have them do unto you. I carry that with me to this day, and I bring it with me to every job or project I undertake.

Ballou Enterprises was built on relationships, trust, and the belief that professionalism still matters. Every property is treated with the same level of care and attention we would give our own home, business, or investment.

I've accumulated 10 years of home improvement, property maintenance, and repair experience, from my teenage years to my now late 20's. I've been doing high quality work locally here in the 757.
