Ruy Barbosa is high off the charts in professionalism. He was responsive to our questions, and…read moreintuitive about our interests. He communicated with us throughout the project of installing a new Timberteck deck. His crew worked straight on through from start to finish without empty lapses of time. The men are so highly skilled. We continue to be happy with our beautiful deck. Therefore, we asked Ruy to install a Timberteck stair rail at our front doors, which also has withstood the test of time. We'd been concerned that installments like this would compromise the brick, whereby requiring a total rebuild, but a rebuild wasn't necessary. He also advise us on an easy and effective fix to divert water from flowing from the gutter and freezing to ice on those brick steps in winter. Based on the outcome of these projects, and our experience in their progression, we highly recommend this company.

Brutal experience with them back in 2022-2024. Would take weeks and, more than once, even months…read moreto get them to come back and do any work (see screenshots of my text interactions with them -- note the dates). They were supposed to build a new rubber roof. It started leaking on 3 separate occasions (which btw was never fully fixed -- we moved on to different contractors who did address the issues). And like I said, it would take months for them to actually come back and attempt to fix anything. Often they'd come by, look at the damage, then I wouldn't hear from them for multiple weeks. Meanwhile, more damage continues to accrue to the walls and ceilings. The internal fixes they applied for the water damage were just patch jobs. They just plastered and painted over. Meanwhile, the insulation behind the wall was soaked and accrued black mold that we had to address later. Also worth pointing out a major blunder at the beginning of the project (see attached videos and pics). They opened up the roof, and left it open for multiple days without doing any work. Well of course a major rainstorm came by (which was on the weather forecast well in advance). Alll that water poured into the house in the middle of the night setting off fire alarms. It was a nightmare to deal with on my end.

Charlie is simply amazing; he is the epitome of craftsmanship and professionalism…read more When I wanted to remodel my kitchen and master bathroom as well as add a home office, I canvassed friends and family for contractor recommendations. Charlie came to me by with glowing recommendations by way of a friend, and he has far exceeded my every expectation and hope. Charlie is a true artist, and his attention to detail is astounding, leading to a spectacularly beautiful finished product. As importantly to me, Charlie always carries himself with the utmost professionalism and is someone in whom I have full confidence and trust. His time and cost estimates were incredibly good and he was transparent and accommodating throughout. Choosing a contractor and carpenter is a big decision and I can say without reservation that there's nobody better. The only problem I have now is that I can't stand to look at the parts of my house that he hasn't remodeled :)

He is a true professional and an amazing craftsman. He built three bathrooms, a kitchen, an apartment and all the work needed to preserve the foundation of the house. Charlie's carpentry is superb. His ability to solve all the problems our old house presented was remarkable. He is also a wonderful person- intelligent, personable and a pleasure to have in my home. I could not recommend him any more highly. You would be the lucky one if Charlie worked for you.

Josh and team were AMAZING! Always easy to reach (I prefer using email vs phone calls and Josh was happy to accommodate) and willing to answer all of my questions (even the basic ones). The workmanship is just gorgeous and the price was very reasonable for the effort. It looks like a whole new house! They even helped me navigate my town's permit process (necessary b/c we installed two new support posts). I'm so happy with the work - thank you Josh and Decks Plus, highly recommend!

We got a prompt response from Crown Home Improvement and the owner took the time to come up and paint the ceiling himself because of our short turnaround time.

I hired Crown Home Improvement in summer 2020 to repair some minor roof damage from a recent…read morewindstorm. Douglas showed up immediately, provided a very timely estimate, and was able to get started on the work very soon thereafter. From initial consultation to start of the work, everything was smooth and very simple - he explained very clearly what was needed and kept making sure I had no questions. During the same visit, as he was assessing the roof on my garage, he inquired if I ever considered a skylight for the bonus room. In like manner, he had an assessment and estimate in my hands and, after I agreed, likewise made a point to begin the work as soon as he could. I've attached pictures to show progress. I am beyond pleased with the final product. Not only did they install a beautiful skylight, they repainted the rest of the wall to match and the finished work looks as if it were installed as part of the original bonus room. Douglas and his team clearly know roofing, windows, and framing. And their skills back up their work. To make things even better, when a subsequent wind & rain storm resulted in a few drips on the sides of the skylight, Douglas and team were back within days to reassess their work - they removed the skylight, re-checked and shored up the lining, and reinstalled the window in less than a day at no additional cost. Douglas and his company stand by their word and their work. It is a lost attribute in this world of service-providers, and thus working with them was refreshing. Looking forward to the next project where I can bring them in.

I was hesitate at first…read morebecause I found them on Yelp and it wasn't through a referral, but I am extremely happy with the work that Joe and his team delivered. The reason why I chose Anjo over the other contracts is because I could tell Joe was very detailed oriented. He showed up with detailed architectural drawings of my new deck and that level of detail continued throughout the whole the process. Everything was done with great detail. The building inspector at the end of the project even commented on great Joe's work was. I highly recommend Anjo Home Improvement. They showed up everyday and got the work done in the timeframe they promised. And Joe provided me with fair pricing. I know I won't have to worry about my deck for 30 years. Just hire Joe and his team, they won't let you down.
