Our ridge vent blew off in a storm. St. Hilaire Roofing returned our call quickly and Dave St…read more Hilaire (the owner) came out that day to make the repair. He also evaluated our aging roof and skylights. Instead of selling us a new roof and skylights (which he easily could have done ... we wouldn't know otherwise), he saved us thousands by being honest. He made a few repairs, secured the ridge vent, caulked a few spots, replaced some nails with screws, and said we should be just fine. Very prompt, knowledgeable, honest ... and a really nice guy to boot. I would give St. Hilaire Roofing TEN stars. Very satisfied!

Southern Maine Paving came in $400 below what I thought the job was worth. They did an amazing job. Bush had a large crew. They spent hours preparing the driveway, laying down the new pavement, paying attention to every detail. I am a harsh critic as I have worked for 2 prime contractors in my younger years and I could not have asked for more. They even made sure the roadway in front of my home was left in a clean condition. The owner, Bush, does more than give orders. They all work well as a team.

It has become infuriating to constantly run out of hot water on a seemingly perfectly working boiler/hot water heater. Now, our heat broke so I decided to find another plumber or HVAC company. Mike was referred to me with raving reviews. When contacted, he dropped what he was doing and came here the next morning. Not only did he fix ALL the problems with our heat and hot water heater, he even showed me how to remove the glass on our fireplace and clean it. He is extremely knowledgeable and showed me how to do all the troubleshooting myself next time. I highly recommend him!!!

My hot water heater stopped working on a Sunday night, I contacted two companies for repair and…read moreservice. Dixon's and another company that charges a little less per hour. Within 2 hours on a Sunday I heard back from Dixon's to schedule a service call for Monday morning, I heard from him again first thing in the morning to go over the details and got scheduled for 9am Monday morning. Then at 9:30 I got the first call from the other company, sorry to slow. Dixon's prompt response was not only comforting since I had no hot water, but showed great service from the get-go. Mike arrived with help and within 30minutes had my hot water heater running. He explained each step of the way what he was doing to the pump and why it happened. Fantastic service. Very friendly and professional. I highly recommend his service, another company may be slightly cheaper for labor costs but you won't get better service. Lastly he e-mailed a digital invoice! - GO GREEN!

Brought Electrolux canister VAC to Jimmy D's Vac Shack in Hollis that would sometimes not start…read more We thought it was just a power cord issue. It is only a few years old. In order for him to even look at it, there was a $22 bench fee I had to pay. (so I did) He called me the next day saying he needed the VAC hose because the VAC would not run without the hose attached. I thought that was strange but brought it over anyway. After 3 days, I had not heard anything after he had told me he would get back to me the day after I dropped off the hose. He tells me he has bad news. The motor is blown and it would be over $280 for the motor and a bunch of other parts plus labor. (And a 6 week delivery on the motor because it is not stocked by his vendor) I asked what the other parts were needed and he said "just more parts". Keep in mind, we only paid $300 for this vac. He then says it is not worth repairing. I agreed. I then go to pickup the VAC and he proceeds to try to sell me a VAC from his store. I polity decline and head home. So with him saying it was dead, when I get home, I figure since its dead, I'll open it up and see what I find??? Guess what, after taking it all apart, turns out it was only the power cord. I spent $4.95 at the hardware store for a new plug and it now runs fine. Also, I took the hose off and it still ran fine. Hmmm. Wonder if I will get my bench fee back. This guy is sleazy! I wonder how many other people he has scammed???
