What's really cool about this company is that he happens to hire people that don't drink and smoke so you don't have to worry about that type of stuff in or around your home. Also they have such great attention to detail. Last year I had him strip down and repaint and add gutters to my second home. It's like night and day. Before the water ran down the walls and went under the paint, it was a disaster. John and his crew fixed all that with new paint and window frames and gutters and it's still in pristine shape. This year we hired him again to both fix the roof on that other house, and remodel our downstairs to turn it from an old funky concrete room to a new laundry and dry storage goods facility. Both went beautifully and now my wife is very happy with her new storage room! Happy hippo provides a good price, but what they really provide is VALUE. A low price is worthless if the job isn't properly done, so having both a low price and value is what's so great. And John and his crew have integrity. That's also rare. I highly recommend Happy hippo.

The guy that started my quote failed to communicate and follow up for scheduling services I paid half down for. And even then failed to initiate 2 other windows he quoted me for. If it wasn't for Casey taking over, I would have asked for my money back. Overall it took from the beginning of April until the end of September to complete the work (2 window repairs and one door installation). By the end I was having to call every week to ask when they were going to be able to complete the unfinished job from 3 weeks prior. The guys were nice but I will never recommend them for residential work, nor will I ever look to them for services ever again.

Eli was very prompt in communicating and made sure I was happy with everything, and Craig was an incredibly hard worker and perfectionist at his trade. Their quote was expensive, but they used top of the line products for everything and were very thorough and got the job done quickly. I get compliments all the time on how great my place looks now!

I sought an estimate, listened to his presentation, and after multiple unsuccessful attempts to get…read morethe estimate, I finally had to set a deadline to receive it. Rather than provide the estimate, he finally responded with an admission that he had intentionally left me hanging. He wasn't going to get it to me because of HIS interpretation of what HE decided I was looking for. I never wavered from wanting the estimate, and he failed in his mind reading. Very unprofessional.

01 June 2010 i hired Dennis to put a new roof, siding and windows on my house, garage and shop. He…read morecharged quite a lot, but I was sure that we were getting a professional job. He hired unemployed kids off the street to do the job and never showed up at the job site. The materials were ruined by mishandeling. There is not a square corner anywhere they worked. Roof lines are noticeably off. Siding was put on the house incorrectly and it blows off every time the wind blows(they did offer to correct this for more money) The windows that were replaced had 100 year old hardwood inside the house that the workers ripped out in splinters and replaced with pine that was incorrectly sized, I have since paid a carpenter to come in and replace all of their work. The job was supposed to take 1 month and ended up being over a year. The workers were buying material for the job out of their own pockets. Overall it was a horrible experience that is still costing me money to fix. Normally we would be in court with trying to recover some of the loss, but Dennis had a bout with cancer recently and I told him he needs to quit the business if he can not do it. Hopefully by this time this company is not working on anyone's place and taking their dollars.
