    "I recently hired Efim Pressman with EP Home Improvements to remodel a bathroom and vestibule for my home to update the look of my first floor. From estimate to punch list completion, Efim and his firm were efficient and honest. They completed the project on time and as proposed, and communicated clearly every step of the way, including any necessary add-ons or change orders. The powder room is beautiful and the entire look of my home has been transformed. I highly recommend using Efim Pressman."

    "Iâ m patting myself on the back for this awesome find. We had a great experience from start to finish. I called to get a quote and within 2 days Joe A came out to the house to take a look at the space and he a feel for what we wanted. He was super personable and knowledgeable which I appreciated. I was upfront in telling him we were quoting the project out to a total of 4 companies. We ultimately decided on Rebath and Iâ m so glad we did. Once we decided to go with them, Joe confirmed all the details, then Kevin the owner came to do a final inspection and confirm choices/colors prior to material order. He laid out exactly how the process would go and what to expect. On install day the dream team showed up! Phil and Matt came in and nailed it. They were awesome. They were hilarious, hard working and knew their stuff. Even made a point to come and ask my input on little details. Things they didnâ t have to do, just above and beyond for even asking. During the install Kevin came by to see how project was going. After the completion of the project Joe A came back in to see it and make sure I was happy. These guys are super professional, good guys that do really really good work. They acted like guests in my home, nice to my kids and now I have a beautiful bathroom and they did so by doing everything they said they would. I recommend these guys. Iâ m very pleased. Worth every penny and their prices are in line with the market on bathroom remodels but in my opinion, their service and craftsmanship is above and beyond."

    "Simply put, you will NOT find a better, more honest, more helpful, more easy-to-work-with, reasonably priced contractor than John Lee and his crew at J & K Home Improvement & Restoration! We had a "complicated" set of circumstances when our home was damaged by a storm, last winter. The insurance company sent out an estimator to assess the damage and, after the company recommended J & K Home Improvement & Restoration, I was introduced to John Lee. I eventually learned that John also does estimates for a variety of insurance companies (because his company is so well regarded), and he patiently listened as I described the nuances associated with our house. During our initial consultation, he was able to clearly describe all of the steps that would be necessary and answer all of our questions. Long story short, not only was John able to address EVERY single concern and request that we had regarding the eventual repairs to the house (including roof, siding, and a window upgrade that would have cost much more if we had done it at a later time), but he spent plenty of extra time making sure that everything we had talked about was addressed to our 100% satisfaction! He was also able to persuade the insurance company to cover more complete repairs than was originally specified by the first adjuster! In addition, when we had an electrical "hiccup" associated with all the pounding on the walls, John quickly sent an expert electrician to locate and correct the problem. He absolutely could have passed those charges on to us because the failure wasn't due to any mistake on the part of his crew but, instead, he picked up the unanticipated expense himself. It was truly a pleasure to work with John! He made a difficult situation as easy to manage as possible, and we would strongly recommend J & K Home Improvement & Restoration to anyone who wants to hire a quality contractor that stands behind their work and well-earned reputation!"

What I loved about them is their eye for detail and also not get frustrated with their work. If it was meant to be completed they did it. No 50% work.. full 100% commitment. Pricing was very very reasonable and would recommend them to everyone. They will be back in the summer for power washing and sealing the patio/ porch!"

    "Had the pleasure of partnering with Jolanta & her team for our our "mini" renovation i.e. refinishing 1200 sqft basement to include full bath, laundry room (move existing laundry from mudroom on main floor) reading nook, fireplace, entertainment area, bedroom & two separate new staircases. CONSULTAITON: Upon arrival Jolanta was prepared with taking measurements & hand drawn schematic drawings for each room; discussed options & feasibility for structural modifications/changes. DEMO DAY: the team was quick, efficient and maintained a consistent level of cleanliness upon their departure EACH DAY & throughout the project scope. COMMUNICATION: was key and I felt very comfortable working with the team on layouts, structural changes & appreciated their expertise when sometimes the answer was 'no' because of structural safety or existing ducts which could not be moved. I valued their creativity to give me the final results on my new staircase, bathroom, reading nook and laundry room (our project was tough at times because existing duct work could not be eliminated or moved). They always approached me with questions to ensure I approved any changes to layouts due to unforeseen issues. ATTENTION TO DETAIL/QUALITY: Jolanta and her team consistently demonstrated attention to details throughout the project & the quality of work was brought to life in the final results. I enjoyed doing the design & communicating with the team what my vision was for certain areas of the basement & then finally seeing it come to life! COST: Extremely competitive to say the least. I always had the same team working throughout the scope of the project & the value of their craftmanship & hard work is evident in the final results & the materials used. Would I hire again and recommend? Absolutely."

    "We were very happy with DemoWorks. The price was fair, the work was good and the workers friendly. Initially, my husband and I hired DemoWorks to remove two small walls/doorframes and to drywall our front hall closet. This was no easy feat considering our house is 100 years old, has mostly plaster walls, and had an old exterior wall now acting as an interior wall in our home. We also wanted, what we thought were, two old, capped gas pipes removed from our living room wall. When Monfilio and Drake arrived to do our project, Monfilio immediately stated that he believed the gas pipes were actually old electrical boxes. At this point, we had several estimates from other companies on the cost of removing these gas pipes and, yet, Monfilio was literally the only person to suggest that he believed these capped pipes were actually electrical and when we opened up the wall, he was right too. Monfilio was always willing to offer advice and information about the construction of our house. You could tell he has a great passion for homes. There was a small misunderstanding and he was willing to fix it so that we were completely happy with the project. He even stayed late (unprompted) to make sure it was 100% complete before he left. Long-story short, we were so impressed with the work that they have done for us that we actually asked them to come back to remove a third doorframe, after our first project was completed. At this point, all of our projects have been completed and we are very happy with the results. It is also worth noting that all the employees that have worked with us on our projects have been professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. We will definitely be hiring them to help us with other projects around our old home."

    "We were extremely happy with the work and service we received from Unlimited Remodeling. The job was started exactly when promised and finished with 2 days of what was expected. Rafal was great with his communication. He called every evening to make sure everything that was done that day was ok. He is a really nice person and a pleasure to deal with. We were concerned with the window being installed in our upstairs bathroom because the new tub surround that was just installed by them needed to be cut to fit the window in. They did such a great job that you would think that the tub surround was made for the window. You can not even tell the tub surround was cut. They actually created a window sill themselves to fit the window and tub surround. Ziggy was the worker and very friendly and did a terrific job on everything. Drop cloths were placed through the entire area he needed to walk through to get to the bathrooms so there were never any issues with our rugs or floors in the kitchen,living room or family room. I would highly recommend them. Great job done at a reasonable,affordable price. Thanks Rafal and Ziggy for a great job !!"

The work was done efficiently and with quality workmanship. Greg never tried to 'add-on' for unneeded extras, but understood our family's needs and budget.

The owner made multiple visits and we spoke several times to help figure out a way to reach goals without charge. He was very generous with his time and helped to figure the most cost effective way to get started and progress. He listens and goes beyond the call of duty. I have no doubts that he is true to his word and integrity. I am happy to have found such an exceptional and attentive electrical contractor. He's my guy from now on."

They showed up when they said, John had great Outside-The-Box ideas for layout design of a tricky kitchen, caught hidden structural issues and fixed them. Each day ended with a clean work space. John was there every day. Totally responsive to any questions. He also remodeled our son's new house.

    "I would say this is more like 4.5 but better than a 4. We had some initial hiccups and a bunch of miscommunication and dropped balls with our initial Field Manager. I think he was simply overstretched and not able to dedicate the time to the size of our project. Matrix made it right though and got us a new Field Manager named Jim and things went all as smoothly as I could have hoped afterwards. There were still some issues but they were more just part of the process and making sure everything was done right by the end of the project. Jim was amazing and he was on top of things from the moment he took over and, most importantly, he always took ownership and made sure the job got done and that it got done right. Once Jim took over, I felt confident that everything was going to turn out right and the way we had hoped. Most of the contractors were also very friendly, helpful, and had attention to detail overall."

Frequently asked questions

  • It’s important that you verify their license is still in good standing. Also keep in mind that certain states or provinces don’t require licensing if the job is under a certain dollar amount.
  • You can find a list of your state’s licensing requirements on the HomeAdvisor website. Before you get to work with the pro, make sure their qualifications are current and acceptable to you.
  • It is always a good idea to get a copy of the pro’s insurance certificate for future records, and in case anything happens. This is a good way to feel more secure in your home project, and to weed out potential scammers.

HomeAdvisor makes it easy to connect with pros near you. You can read reviews, get quotes and book appointments all in one place.

Depending on the type of project, you may find subtle differences in the hiring process. Here’s a look at task-specific advice.

You can use HomeAdvisor to help evaluate a contractor’s qualifications. We put pros through a screening process, and award badges to high-performing contractors. You can find these badges on a pro’s HomeAdvisor profile, and sometimes, his or her website. 

Your research doesn’t stop here. Once you’ve found a few prospective companies, make an call to ask a few questions about work history, licensure and more:

  • Have you completed a job like this before?
  • Do you have a list of references I can contact?
  • When are you able to start the job?

In most cases, the responses you get to these three questions will give you a very good idea of the right pro for your project. If you have more than one front-runner, these additional questions can help you narrow it down. 

  • How many years of experience do you have?
  • What’s your permanent business address?
  • Are you licensed to work in my area?
  • When did you earn your business license?
  • How do you handle warranty service complaints?
  • Do you have worker’s compensation, property damage and personal liability insurance?

Any good contractor will answer these questions, and most will appreciate dealing with a client that takes such an active interest in finding good service. On the other hand, if a contractor gives you a hard time with these questions, you probably want to find someone else.
