Better Homes Inc exceeded my expectations on every detail of my extensive, exterior renovation.
After researching about eight siding and window contractors, and seeking quotes from three, I chose Better Homes Inc. and I am extremely happy that I did. Scott and his team exceeded my expectations at every step - contract/pricing, windows, siding, painting, custom details, timeline and clean-up. I cannot overstate how anxious I was over this large and unfamiliar work so communication was a key factor for me and Scott never disappointed. He was either at the job site or called/texted me virtually every day and responded promptly when I contacted him. This may not be what everyone needs, but Scott recognized that I did and it was very reassuring during the turmoil of the renovation.
My house is small, but almost 50 years old and had two layers of siding with no underlayment. There were hundreds of nails poking through the soffit, wires and service boxes attached all over the old siding, potential dry rot and rusty bars over most of the windows and doors. Add an assertive, anxious homeowner with some unusual custom finish requests and you will understand better the challenges Better Homes Inc was facing.
Scott is very experienced, knows current building codes, and manufacturers' installation guidelines and can clearly explain the reasoning for these necessary steps and materials. This experience also means that he also has a great variety of suggestions for sound design options and will share the pros and cons of those options. He also has good working connections with other professionals so was able to arrange for electricians and a gutter installation during the precise dates when that work needed to be completed within my project.
Since the completion of this project, more than a dozen knowledgeable neighbors have stopped by. They have complemented not just the final results, but also the quality of the workmanship they observed over the course of the full replacement of my home's exterior. I had already recognized this, but these discussions have confirmed my own opinion - and the drive to share this experience and recommendation.
Finally, Scott is kind and respectful with his crew, as well as with this female homeowner. During the unavoidable upheaval of a remodel, those are invaluable and rare traits. Please do contact Scott at Better Homes, Inc. I am sure you will be happy with their excellent quality of work. read more
