Amazing. I have an older pellet stove that was not part of Alternative's inventory and they would…read morenot be able to work on it. Despite that, somebody walked me through two different solutions that I could potentially do myself. I was able to fix the stove for free based on the guidance provided in a 20 minute phone call. Other places were going to charge several hundred dollars just to look at it. They absolutely went above and beyond for somebody that wasn't even a customer of theirs. The second I need a new heating source, I will call them. Any business that acts like this cares about customers rather than just money. I highly recommend them.

From the moment our family walked through the door of Alternative Heat Source, Karl made us feel…read morecomfortable. He did not try to "sell" us a stove, he educated us on the differences, and made a recommendation based upon the stove we were currently using. His son, Kory, came out two days later and took a look at our current stove and chimney layout. He spent nearly an hour looking things over and patiently putting together a couple different quotes for us to ponder. Over the next few days, I emailed Kory with many questions, to which he was receptive and honest, and never tried to pressure us into making a decision. He only provided us with the necessary information to make an informed decision. Once we made our decision, Kory returned ten days later, and professionally installed our new stove. He even moved our old stove into our garage for us. He took the time to touch-up the paint on the stove pipe, and cleaned up every bit of the mess they made, even as minute as it was. I could not be happier with Alternative Heat Source, and highly recommend their sales and service.

Yes, I know my water heater is leaking, thanks. They ghosted me, so I wasted no time and tried calling Hilltop. Steve came out the very next day to take a look, and there was no charge. On the spot, he got on the horn with Lisa and they priced out a new one, and sent me the estimate and invoice for a deposit. Rich and his team of three came out the following day and completed the job in under an hour. Clean and professional work! What really impressed me, was that after I had written them a cheque and they left, Lisa called me back not long after, apologizing for overcharging me! They corrected the invoice and so I was not overcharged. Honesty says a lot about people who run a business. Great team. Definitely working with them again.

Overall, I would not recommend solely based on how this business communications with potential…read morecustomers. While they did come out to do inspections on our chimneys, there was zero communication afterward in regards to what was found, a quote, etc. It has been nearly a month. I called several times, spoke with the receptionist - Adam was either out of the office or the one time he was in office and she took my email for a quote, nothing was sent and no phone call received. I'm unsure what the breakdown is, but if they cannot communicate information for a quote or schedule work to be done, I don't know if I would trust them to take my money to perform said services. I cannot speak to their workmanship, as again, I have been ghosted since the site visit.

From start to finish, they exceeded every expectation we had and turned what could have been a stressful experience into an exciting, seamless transofrmaion. The quality of the work was outstanding. Every finish0from flooring and trim to the newly built staircase, is flawless. They showed great care for every detail, and it shows in the final results. Even the whole neighborhood would stop to comment on how beautifully executed the addition is. Major construction projects often come with delays and budget creep, but Beehive stayed on schedule and budget. They provided a clear timeline at the outset of every milestone, even when weather and supply issues could have caused delays. They were transparent about costs and helped us make smart choices that enhances the value of our home without unnecessary spending. Adding a second story is no small feat, but Beehive handled the complexity with skill, grace, and true professionalism. The project has completely transformed out home giving us the space we needed. I would not hesitate to recommend Beehive to anyone considering a major renovation. If you are looking for a contractor that is reliable, skilled, and truly cares about their work, this is who you need to call.

From beginning to end, Robin communicated with us about what was happening and what we could expect. When you renovate, everyone warns you of two things: taking more time and spending more money. Beehive told us what to expect, and came in on time and under(!) budget on our project. We are so happy with their work and would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a convenient, reliable contractor to work with. Thank you Beehive!

Downeast Energy sent Citizen Energy out to sevice my generator. The tec named Cam was excellent and…read moreexplained he would order the part as soon as he returned to the office. That was on 12/9/2025. We called several times. Calls were never returned. Someone name Ben who claimed to the owner had excuse after excuse, such as they could not find the part and on and on. When you call the number they give you, you are told to call another number only to find that number mailbox does not work. Always got a different answer but never the truth. Finally Downeast got through to Citizens and Cam came out with the part and fixed the problem. Took about a month for a flexible pipe. Very poor customer service. In my opinion you should find another repair company that treats their customers with respect and truth

I called Citizen Energy and the came to my home in a very short period of time, diagnosed the problem and told me I needed a new furnace. my existing furnace was less than 5 years old and should have been under warranty. They ordered a new unit and installed it, also within a very short time period. The employees were polite courteous and completed the job in a short period of time. I paid the invoice and thought everything would be fine, Hoping they would do something proactively to help with my warranty claim since only a licensed hvac tech can initiate this. Well, that was one year ago and I never received any reimbursement. A couple weeks after the furnace was installed. I had a problem that the furnace would not turn on. Despite repeated calls and voicemails left with this as well as speaking with the owner, they never returned my calls did they ever provide . I ended up calling another company to come and determine what the cause of the issue was. It turns out that there was a blown fuse on the circuit board. To continue the story this past winter after the first really cold I discovered that the propane portion of the furnace was never working. It was never as a result I was only using the heat pump and my bill high. Once again, I called energy several times and left the situation. I never received a return call and I ultimately never received any . As a result, I had to call another HVAC company to come in to determine what the problem was. They discovered that it was a simple switch that was not set correctly. However, I was charged $600 for this discovery. Had citizen energy done their job correctly. None of happened. In summary, I would tell any customers who energy buyer beware. At first, it may seem like they are very efficient and are very interested in serving you well as a . But, in my personal experience, I found that once they got , there was no service after the initial sale they would not even return my phone calls.

Buyer beware!…read more International Door installed my original garage door two years ago. It is 12 feet wide. Garaga, the door manufacturer, requires cross bracing for doors 12 feet 2 inches wide or wider, but not for the 12 foot wide door I had installed. International Door never so much as mentioned that I should consider a cross brace for my door to prevent exactly what happened. The wind blew the door in. That $3,000.00 door lasted just two years. International Door wanted $2200.00 to repair the door they installed two years ago. $1300 of their quote was labor. Brisk Doors did an outstanding professional job for just $1300. International Door would have charged me $650 for each hours worth of labor had I accepted their quote. When I asked for a quote to repair the door that they charged me $3,000.00 to buy and install, International Door chose to exploit an existing customer to make an unreasonable profit rather than stand by the door they recommended and installed. The entire repair took less than 3 hours with about $500 in parts. I highly recommend Brisk Doors in Gorham over International Door in Lewiston! Dave Close is the owner. He charged me $900 less than the insulting quote given by International Door in Lewiston.
