I am a property manager and hired Sean to do a small deleading job in Natick. Because it was a…read more"small job" a few other companies price-gouged me or told me they wouldn't do it. Sean was honest and provided an extremely detailed quote. He followed the proper protocol and filed notice with the state, as is legally required for deleading work in MA. I also asked if he would send me a picture of the work once he was done to save me a trip to the property, and he promptly followed up with a photo. It was a small and simple job, but the price was fair and Sean was able to perform the work within the timeframe I requested and communicated well in between the initial step of reaching out, providing me with a quote, performing the work, and billing.

Skilled, honest, responsible, cordial (pick your adjective). Unless we're in a pinch time-wise then…read morewe'll always go with Dave. Dave and his crew do not rush through the job and instead make sure that it's done right. He stands by his work even if the last check has already cleared. Dave also associates himself with quality subs that specialize in the necessary highly skilled facets of his business (for example Signature Masonry does incredible work and rebuilt our chimney and completely reconstructed our basement bulkhead entrance with outstanding results). Most importantly, Dave and his crew treat your home like it's their home that they're working on. Can't get better than that.

Dave Lane has done a few home improvement projects around our home with excellent results. He…read moreinstalled a metal roof on our home along with siding. To this day, people stop at our home and are amazed at the look and the beautiful work. He remodeled our bathroom, completely gutted, and turn our 1970 bathroom into an oasis. He installed new flooring in four rooms of our house and took the time to make it flow seamlessly from one room to another. Once done, he transformed our living room with a detailed paint job giving the room a wow factor. Dave is in constant communication with the customer from the beginning of the project and through until the end of the project. He is very meticulous to meeting the customers wishes and their every need. You can tell he takes pride in his work and values his customers. Dave is definitely skilled and we have always appreciated his honesty of what will work or not work in every project he has completed for us. His work is worth every penny spent.

We bought a foreclosure 11 years ago. While we practically stole the house (still can't believe it…read morewas in our price range!) it's been a work in progress, restoring it while addressing unfinished work. Turns out the price we paid was fair. After re-roofing the house, we had enough savings left to put a bottom coat on the barely navigable dirt driveway, with the intention to put a top coat on when we'd saved more money. During that time we developed pot holes that became craters, the pieces of which ended up on our lawn when we plowed in the winter. While other paving companies acted like this was something they'd have to seriously upcharge for, Larry took it in stride. I liked him from the minute I met him, he's an old school guy, a dying breed. Larry came within 48 hours of my first call. He was knowledgeable, seemed genuine, and was a true pleasure to talk with. He's a no-BS kind of guy, and you can tell he's good at what he does because it is a *craft* for him. The price he gave us was more than fair, and we signed right away. Within weeks he showed up *as promised* (again, old school and unusual these days) and was communicative throughout. He is very particular when it comes to what is being done, and he was often there, directing his men, sending them back if he felt something wasn't to his standards. And the workers--so polite, friendly when I engaged them, telling me in front of him that they did some extra work at the top of the driveway to make the entrance more impressive. And when it came time for the bill? It was just as we agreed upon, with no surprises. Larry returned several days later to inspect the driveway himself--he didn't send a lackey, he was there making sure it was what HE felt was a job well done. That's an old school guy for you: STANDARDS. He already had his money, but he didn't forget about us. The driveway was completed at the end of May, five months ago, and it has worn well. I cannot recommend Larry and Sorenson Paving enough. Support local, small businesses with honest owners!!

I was so happy with not only the final result, but also with the service of Jason and Josh from Mason Sky. They were honest, reliable, knowledgeable and very easy to work with. They always did what they promised to do and answered all calls right away. They informed us of the process and helped us make decisions along the way. I highly recommend Mason Sky if you are searching for a contractor. You will not be disappointed!

They cancelled two appointments after multiple confirmations. I get the impression they assumed we…read morewould not be profitable enough, despite needing three new doors, two half baths and a kitchen, because they kept bragging about how much business they had and how hard it would be to fit us in again. Just weren't interested in our business. UPDATE: Since the owner has come by to defend his gross practices, I want to update and assure you he is lying. He cancelled on me more than one time after we had taken time off from work to meet with him, and his help was bafflingly rude when they told me after the last cancellation that they didn't want our business. Saying "oh boo hoo other contractors would have been worse!" Is no excuse for the awful treatment we received.

The entire project team was great to work with, very responsive and highly organized. We really liked the project management app and 3D design software they used. Before bringing in the Core team my husband and I struggled with making decisions around the final design. However once we brought in Corey's team, they helped with determining the design elements and provided great guidance & suggestions that made the decision process much easier. The Core team was very flexible and happy to work with the company installing our AV system so all the design planning and scheduling was aligned. We highly recommend Core Remodeling and we look forward to doing additional home renovations with their team soon.

The attached screen-shot proves that much, at the very least!! Does it not?? Yeah, I think it does! Still want to deny that we ever interacted Bobby??? You know, being bad at business is one thing. Some people just suck at life and that's all there is to it. No reason to be mad about it, and no sense in getting mad about being called out for it. I'm like that about certain things myself. For instance, I am terrible at keeping up correspondence. But I'm not running a service-oriented business that requires that skill. You are! But to just straight up lie about it to all of these good people and say the whole thing never happened? Are you really that dumb?? Guess what - they all know it's true now, don't they? I wish I had posted that screen-shot along with the initial review, but what are you gonna do? It's not like I'm running a service-oriented small business! And don't try to say that we're not connected and therefore you never received my messages. I can post your responses to the questions I asked previously. I fact, you're the one who initiated contact with me when you PM'd me after I said I was looking for a handyman in the "Bellingham Small Business and Beyond" Facebook group.

Despite the fact that I paid them daily (1st red flag) they began the job of refacing my exterior dormers, made an utter mess, and then simply disappeared leaving my exterior dormers exposed to water damage during a particularly rainy Spring season. Moreover the shingles that they did manage to complete entirely buckled within days. The fencing they installed is completely off center. And the mess they left behind took an entire day to clean up. Dozens of unanswered calls/texts latter I am left with a disastrous mess of exposure to resolve. Don't be fooled by their over-engaging persona ... integrity matters ... and you will find this company to be entirely lacking.
