He was very punctual, neat and the work was perfectly done. Not only that, his final bill was a couple of hundred dollars LESS than his estimate. That's right, LESS. I'm glad that I found him.

Syd provided detailed carpentry work on my condo renovation in Pacific Heights. He was a true…read moreprofessional and his skills were exemplary. Syd took on projects ranging from crown moulding to hardwood flooring and provided both guidance and heads-down effort to deliver a quality result. Many of the projects were challenging and required a creative approach. Syd didn't shy away from these and always delivered. He was also very reliable. I never had to worry that he was burning up time on the clock with unproductive work. I'd recommend him on any job, especially those that require excellent carpentry skills.

He arrived on time, sized up the required work and started working. The new microwave was slightly larger than the original which possibly involved cutting into the brick backsplash. Dan determined that he could fit the new one without having to cut into the brick - a very messy operation. The rest of the install went smoothly and we couldn't be happier with the finished project. Dan's very pleasant demeanor was a very nice complement to the whole experience. we would highly recommend him for your consideration.

We hired Belrose Home Inspections to inspect our 1949 home in Burlington, VT. They were recommended…read moreby our realtor. Jeff was friendly, knowledgeable, thorough, answered all my questions, and gave me helpful tips for our new home. The information he provided enabled us to address issues immediately before they became bigger problems. In addition to the standard home inpection, we had them do a radon test and a lateral waste pipe camera inspection. I was shocked to see so many positive reviews were removed by the automated system. If you take the time to read the removed reviews, you will get a much better picture of this company and the level of service they provide. We're very happy with their service and highly reccommend them!

This guy was a terrible home inspector and should be avoided at all costs (avoiding him will save…read moreyou money). Sure, he will give you a fancy report with FLIR pictures of your oven, but he misses the basics. He missed the fact that my front door did not latch when close or have a dead bolt on it. How can you make it through a VT winter if your front door will not even latch? He also missed a huge carpenter ant infestation in the master bathroom where some trees were touching the house. Replacing the front door alone cost me $4,000. When I pointed this out to him, he didn't even offer an apology. Let alone a refund. I thought about going after him in court, but it is too hard to go after a home inspector. Better to just avoid.

Was given a contract (original was not itemized) for some work to be done around the house. The…read morecontract/ time we were on their schedule was for 32 hours of work Mon-Thurs to have fascia replaced and our house scraped and painted. The owner was here a total of 18-20 hours over the course of Mon-Sat while his helper was here for a total of 32 hours over Wed-Sat. It took 2 people all that time to replace fascia boards, and since 2 days in to the project we were told that the painting will not be getting done, they offered to fix a few other things that needed to be fixed I.e taking out a few windows and boarding them up, filling in a gable vent, replacing soffits. The owner left numerous times for "meetings" that had been scheduled during our scheduled work time, only to find out that he was doing maintenance in his other properties he manages, leaving his helper who was not comfortable doing the jobs that this company was hired for as he had not been properly trained. We supplied all the materials, (at their request) as well as additional supplies I.e ladder, ladder stabilizer, plywood. We then received a bill for almost $3,200 when the work had not even been completed. This bill also lists hours for work that is completely incorrect, and includes rental of scaffolding for the painting, which was never done and scaffolding was never rented. We were eventually told we only had to pay the original $2,000 that we were quoted due to our dissatisfaction but are still paying the extra $400 due to them fudging the total number of hours that were actually worked. The better business bureau doesn't look too kindly on companies who make up hours worked. This company has a LONG way to go before I would even think about referring anyone to them. Lesson learned, don't hire friends or family to do work for you.
