I also frequently refer them to my clients (my company cleans up after fires, floods, and mold, so when we are done they need a contractor for rebuild) when I know the client needs a meticulous, we'll run project on time and on budget.

I can't overstate how wonderful the RH team is. We interviewed a lot of design + build firms and they won out (and were very patient along the way as we went back and forth with questions and requests to meet again... and again). This is the first time we've taken on a project like this and I had a lot of anxiety and concerns, and they helped every step of the way helping me understand the what ifs, the process, the opportunities of when or how to modify decisions, etc. We also have a very shy cat who requires some extra care when strangers are around, and the main builder on our project has been so accomodating and respectful of our needs to support her through the construction, and he ensured all other parties did the same. The quality of craftmanship is outstanding, not just the RH crew but all of their subcontractors as well. You will always hit bumps in the road along the way but I feel like we were in the best hands possible to navigate those bumps. We've had such a stellar experience with RH -- from first inquiries, to design meetings, to the actual work -- that we will 100% return to them for any of our needs, and are already thinking through the next possible project with them.

They also designed the ABP at the Logan Airport. It's fun to walk into their offices and see all the models of past projects. They also have a strong connection to the art school RISD with many of the architects also doubling as teachers and former students. Check them out!

They came out, took photos, and had a crew removing damaged portions of my ceiling within days. They cleaned up after themselves and provided a dehumidifier to draw out any residual moisture. They cleaned up after themselves and even covered the hole. They dealt with the insurance company and besides having to meet them both for an on site meeting, it was hassle free. The new amount my insurance company is willing to pay now actually covers the cost of the repairs! There is a fee I will be paying but the difference in action that this company was able to spur is well worth the money!

Performance Adjusting could not have made it easier for us. Within an hour of contacting them, they were at the home beginning the cleanup and stabilizing the home. By the next day, they had begun the process of contacting the insurance company. Their experience was invaluable in helping us through the insurance claim process and there is no doubt we would have received much less as a settlement without their assistance. The reconstruction team was fantastic. They were in constant contact with us regarding the design and status of the project. The work was finished much quicker than anticipated, and the quality has been evident as we move back in to the home. Definitely a 5-star experience -- I would absolutely recommend Performance Adjusting!

After spending an evening at Ed's office we were extremely pleased and confident that we made a good choice but as time went on that took a sharp turn into a ditch. Everyone makes bad choices in business, but for my first year I made the worst - by choosing this CPA. My first year married, and my first year in business has been left in the hands of a man who has not responded and has left me no choice but to contact the IRS explain the situation. Thanks buddy, hope you're having fun hiking in the White Mountains because "it's so slow in the summer"! No sweat off your back, right?

Paul Vicario, CPA I…read morewas referred to Paul Vicario to guide me with a financial decision for which I needed some clarity. Paul returned my call the same day, actually after 8pm. Not only was he personable and took the time with me over the phone by asking all the relevant questions to properly guide me, but he was so knowledgeable and very thoughtful. This may sound impressive when it's sometimes difficult to find trustworthy and knowledgeable professionals, but this was even during a busy time (tax season). His guidance was incredible that I actually said to him "why didn't I think of that". My only regret is that I didn't know him sooner. PS. Though I look to Yelp to read reviews, usually I'm not one to write any, however I felt that it was important that I did so this time. It may help someone else.

Received a voicemail from a woman who identified herself only as Joan and left this phone number and please could I return the call. No company name, no reason for the call, nothing other than please call. Not knowing the reason for the call and thinking it could be personal or family, I returned the call, entered the extension and a male answered the phone. I explained that I was returning a call from Joan and without even asking who I was or why I was calling he goes into a 45 second sales pitch on the accounting firm. Notwithstanding the fact that my office is over an hour north in another state, I listened and then said "I appreciate your call but I think we're pretty well set with accounting needs right now but are always happy to consider all options". There was silence and I thought he was working on a response to my offering of an opening and then I heard the distinctive sounds of a hang up. No "thank you for your returned call", no "thank you for your time", no nothing except a rude hang up without even the courtesy of closing the call that they asked me to place to them. Really? This is how you manage business development and opportunity? Good luck with this! I noticed that prior to me, there were no reviews for this company on yelp and after seeing how they handled the call they asked me to make to them, I can see why.
