He got back to me immediately, gave us a very good quote, and actually started the job sooner than we expected. The siding looks beautiful. The crew was very attentive to detail, worked really hard, and cleaned everything up. We couldn't be happier with the results. I then had a door replaced, two storm doors installed, and some decking replaced and again, the work was done with great attention to detail, they worked all day to get it done and cleaned everything up. Excellent service, very professional, highly recommend!

I was in the market to get two, well-past-their-prime doors replaced at my home; a storm door and…read morethe entry door. Faced with, once again, the prospect of having to gather names, call people, setup appointments for estimates, and all the other fun and excitement that comes with hiring for home projects, I resigned myself, against my own better judgement, to go to a big box store to get everything done through them. I mean, it's just doors. How much of a hassle could it be? Notice how I said, "against my own better judgement". Needless to say, it was a fiasco and details are for another review. Despite the drama, I did manage to eke out a ballpark figure of an estimate that included hardware and installation/labor costs so I at least knew how much this was going to cost me no matter who performed the install. Otherwise, I found myself back at square one until I was talking with a friend about this project. He asked why I didn't call Scott's Siding and Remodeling (SSR) as they do doors too, not just roofing and siding. Given my wonderful experience with the roof, I promptly called SSR after hours and left a message with the answering service. Scott called me back the next day and we went over some of the preliminary details. We scheduled a day so he could come out to see what needed to be done, take measurements, etc. Before that though, he said he would mail me a packet containing catalogs for storm and entry doors for me to sift through. Sure enough two days later, the package arrived in a professional-appearing and addressed envelope. Everything Scott said that would be in the package was and I went immediately to work on looking at and choosing what I wanted for the doors and hardware. The catalogs offered far more and better options than the big box store which was nice to see. As with the roof experience, Scott showed up on time and was ready to assess the project. After we ironed out the details and measurements taken, I offered up my choices from the catalog which he promptly recorded. My order would be custom, so there was at least a three week delay while the order processed, then once they were in, we'd go over getting an installation date. I planned for at least a month, month and a half time span from order to completed install. The price? Pretty much on par with what the big box store was asking. SSR came in a few hundred dollars higher, but that did not bother me at all; you get what you pay for. That was late August. Fast-forward to early October. Scott called saying he had a sudden opening and wanted to know if I was available the following day. I was on vacation from work, so it could not have been better timing. Scott informs me that my doors will be delivered in the afternoon and "Don" will be at my house the next day at 8-8:30AM. At around 12:30PM, the doors and all applicable materials were delivered as promised. The next morning at 8:15, again on time, Don and Ed arrive. After rechecking measurements and looking at the physical doors, they went to work. Don and Ed were very professional and friendly. I had no misgivings about their abilities. They worked at a steady pace and methodically. I never got the sense they were in a hurry which I liked. The impression I got was they wanted the job done in a timely manner, but done right, not half-assed like the previous doors had been. By about 2PM, the job was complete. The new doors were in, trim replaced, jamb, sill, and a small part of the trim on the outside of the door was replaced too which was appreciated. The result is a clean, proportionate aesthetic that makes the doors look a bit more classy. I could not be happier with the end result! Throughout the project, Don and Ed cleaned up the work area and even swept my driveway off of wood shavings/dust despite my insistence it wasn't necessary as I was going to wash and vacuum my car. The professionalism and quality workmanship is refreshing and quite lacking in this industry. It's reassuring to see there are companies like SSR who are high above the usually negative contractor reputation. Listen, if my roof review wasn't good enough, this second review serves as more ammo at what a class-act SSR is. I can't stress it enough that SSR should be on your list of potential hires for your next home project, if not the company hired, if you're looking for no hassles and quality work.

Scott and his crew - all highly professional and pleasant -- did an exceptional job gutting the space, putting up walls, installing kitchen cabinets, tile and windows. Their carpentry and tile work was meticulous, as was their cleanup every evening. Scott's subs- for plaster, electrical, plumbing, and painting - were also top notch. Although there were the inevitable hiccups, Scott and his crew were patient and creative and always found a good solution. Scott was always responsive and on top of all the details. The project was well priced and completed on time!! In a nutshell, working with Scott and his crew was awesome.

He was very accessible, always in contact with us and quick to respond whether we reached out by phone, text, email, etc. His rate was more than fair, and totally transparent for all costs that would be involved. He really helped us plan and basically hand hold and walk us through the entire process from conceptualizing our options, where to buy materials, even color and design recommendations. He gave us an aggressive time window for job completion which was important to us with the Holidays looming; and he nailed it - finishing with time to spare. The work was absolutely meticulous, and the attention to details and small nuances make such a huge difference! He even went around to touch up and improve other details around the area not in the scope of the job; just because he thought it would improve the aesthetic and he takes so much pride in his work. This guy is a real artisan - not a laborer. He genuinely enjoys crafting beautiful work and it shows. Our kitchen came out mint - better than we even expected! In all honesty, he was so good at what he does we would be willing to pay MORE to have him work on our stuff than other contractors. I can't imagine using anyone else going forward. 5 star quality all around.

We had just finished a kitchen remodel in January 2019 (replaced all the cabinets, countertops, and…read morelights), but the floorman we'd contracted with had left us high and dry. We had subfloor and while we could have installed the new laminate floor we had, we'd have done a horrible job at it. Lou Gagne was highly recommended to us by a local business, many of whose employees had used his services. We gave him a call that evening. He came out to see us a couple days later and we discussed what had to be done. Install the laminate floor throughout the kitchen, dining room, and attached hallway, install baseboard everywhere but the kitchen, and install threshold where required. He said it would take two days and gave us a reasonable price. OK, so that's the background. Here's what we got. We got a perfectly installed floor, perfectly installed baseboard, someone who really enjoys his work (he sings to his boom box while on the job!), and he fixed some things that a previous contractor hadn't done right because it bugged him and only took a few minutes. The join between the living and dining rooms is perfect. My wife and I did the living room, and not particularly well. He matched the grout lines in the laminate perfectly. In the kitchen he got the laminate floor so close to the cabinets it looks like the floor goes under the cabinets. His idea of using gray grout was perfect as it matches the grout lines in the floor. These walls in our house are not square, but you'd never know it when you look at the baseboard corners. It didn't matter whether it was an inside or outside corner, in close quarters or not, Lou did it perfectly. He also screwed our subfloor down as it wasn't correctly nailed into the joists during construction in 1986. Can you say "squeak"? Not anymore! Lou also gave us some ideas of how we're going to do the backsplash in our kitchen and behind the stove, which we're going to take him up on as soon as possible. My wife and I trust Lou completely. When he says he can do something, he can really do it. Fair price, great work, and it really gives us pride of ownership in our home again. And at some point, we're going to find a figurine that represents what he can do and how well he does it, even if we need to design it ourselves.
