That was August 5th. since then Edwin promises the pillow shortly, soon, in 2 weeks, etc. I even went to his store on that day he said the pillow would be ready but the pillow is not done. now he ignores my calls and texts. I write this after 4 months of waiting. my recommendation is hold back money on his jobs until everything is complete.

That includes washing down any dust from the roof area and the adjacent siding. Would I hire them for other work on my property, you bet.

I wanted to add a direct vent fireplace to my 99-year-old home in Cranford. Unfortunately, there…read morearen't many fireplace sellers or installers in New Jersey but after A LOT of searching I heard about Skylibur Home Improvements in Scotch Plains. Bottom line: FANTASTIC! Simon, the owner, came to the house, met with me to discuss general ideas of what I wanted, and soon sent me a proposal which I found to be fair. Having constructed about 50 fireplaces, he has superb design and construction skills and knew exactly what to do; he thinks 10 steps ahead, which helps to avoid problems later on. Throughout the construction process, he gave me options and the pros/cons of each to consider. Simon handled all of the permitting with the township and was on-site to meet every inspector and sub-contractor. In short, he, Victor and his team turned an ugly wall into what is now the focal point of my house. They were a pleasure to work with: completely reliable, on-time, honest, professional and super-clean. They set up a Zip-wall to keep the rest of the house dust-free and worked outdoors under a pop-up tent; in short, they were EXTREMELY clean and considerate throughout the entire process. As a homeowner, I'm fairly competent with basic home maintenance and repair - but a fireplace installation required specialized knowledge and Simon has it. I can't say enough good about Skylibur; if you're considering installing a fireplace - this is the company to choose.

They re-did my kitchen a few years ago and I was more than pleased. I contacted them again recently to remodel my two bathrooms. (My bathroom was so 70's I had a BABY BLUE toilet, blue tile on the floor, the shower and the walls.) Groan! I can't begin to tell you how pleased I am with the results. Not only is the work beautiful, but you will not find a more caring, giving and in touch crew anywhere. The owner goes OUT OF HIS WAY to do everything to make sure you are pleased. His crew of painters and plumbers are superb and you won't believe how clean they are. The prices are more than fair and he is available to discuss options. In this day and age of shoddy and unfair work ethics, it's so great and a relief to find someone reliable who will not only do a great job, but is considerate, accommodating and courteous. I am so pleased with everything that has been done in my home and I highly recommend SKYLIBUR HOME IMPROVEMENTS for your next home project. You will NOT be sorry.

I finally decided to give his business a try by doing basic lawn maintenance once. The guys showed up, cut only a part of the lawn and then were about to leave before finishing the job properly. The guy cutting the lawn said he was concerned about the new grass even though the grass had been growing for almost 6 weeks by then. Then he recommended I fertilize the lawn to deal with weeds which didnt make sense. Weed killer or over seeding would have been a better solution. After I canceled the service he sends me a bill for higher than his original estimate for weekly service.

Jonathan has done basic landscaping for me, built walkways, built retaining walls/playground platforms, painted my house, repaired my gutters, repaired sidewalks, paved driveways, etc. He can handle or knows someone who can handle any job. His work is top notch, aesthetically pleasing, and his pricing is really competitive. Jonathan stands by his work, he transplanted some trees for me in the past and when one died, he replaced it on his own. Jonathan has also grown into a trusted family friend. When my father was sick with cancer and his furnace gave out, Jonathan drove over at night to fix it and get the heat back on. He does the same for me. It snowed one winter and I needed to get out of my garage for work, Jonathan was there to plow me out! I would highly recommend Jonathan without hesitation for any outdoor landscaping or construction needs
