Dream House Services has been our go-to contractor for years because the quality, reliability, and…read morecreativity is unmatched. Khanh and his team consistently do an amazing job providing a finished project that meets or exceeds our expectations, all while protecting and respecting our property. Khanh is the only contractor I trust to not only accomplish my vision (in detail and meticulously) but also NOT destroy my property in the process. He always makes sure he knows exactly what you're asking for. He confirms he can accomplish it and even suggests modifications to the plan to improve it, to give you the best outcome. The whole team will come to your home and spend a day prepping your space "Dexter" style. He protects everything and anything near or around the work he will do. I've never had a problem with damage to my property with Khanh but I have with EVERY other contractor, no matter the job. In the past, every time we chose to go with someone else because Khanh wasn't available (scheduling), we regretted it! Khanh is a contractor that pays attention to detail, respects you and your property, and gives you exactly what you paid for or more. He's the only professional contractor I will work with for my home.

His team took care of the existing space and provided quality work for the kitchen repair (wall, cabinets, counters, minor plumbing). Furthermore, Khanh had great insight and possible solutions to issues that occurred during the re-build. Dream House Services team was clear on their invoices and quick to update or provide context if there were issues or questions. The team was able to work with us on pricing and figuring out ways to re-use or re-purpose existing undamaged parts of the kitchen to keep cost low. Lastly, Khanh and team was able to stick fairly close to schedule even when material delays or additional issues discovered. I would recommend the Dream House Services team for future any future work

A American Roofing is definitely the company you need for any roofing issue. My kitchen ceiling…read morebegan to leak in a spot right under a small addition to our house. Obviously we thought it was where the roof met the house. A American showed up promptly and got the roof done neatly at a very good price. They did not desert me when it turned out that this was not the cause of the leak. What should have been a small job turned into a nightmare of several months. This company worked tirelessly to find the leak. They sealed nearby windows and bricks, they hung tarps before rainstorms, they scraped snow and ice off the roof and checked under rubber, replaced and reapplied waterproofing materials. Water is insidious. I thought I was doomed to live in a raining kitchen. They chased that leak until they found it...in a steel lined wooden gutter around an opening to a downspout! They were only hired to replace a small roof, and they did it beautifully, but they stuck with me until they found the leak and never charged me another cent. That is superior customer service!

I am an abutter to a large 2 year project they did and my concern is they are bad neighbors and seem unconcerned about that. They really trashed the area-, street damage to a private street is/was a huge problem.

While selling our home the inspector indicated that there was a problem with our heating system…read morethat required a contractor to fix. We reached out to the Holland Companies via our real estate broker and while the estimate ballooned from ~$60 to a final bill of $530, we were satisfied with the fix... until the heat was again unable to be turned on by the buyers during the walkthrough. The plumber came back out (with no notice, which we were grateful for), was finally able to get the heat turned on, and our house closed! A day after the closing we received an additional invoice for $200 for 2.5 hours of work. While the information above paints the picture of a perhaps less than competent, somewhat unscrupulous, and generally mediocre contractor, the final exchange between myself and the owner, Joe, added enough to push me to write this and plead with any and all customers not to seek out the services of the Holland Company. I intended on calling the company to ask for an explanation of the rationale for additional invoice (specifically why following the manufacturer instructions to override a temperature sensor and pressing the "on" button was billed out at 2 hours) and instead was confronted with accusations of "welching" on my bill and a barrage of misogyny that has no place in a customer service industry. Joe repeatedly talked over me, called me "honey", "sweetheart " and "love", and when I told him that I was dismayed at his lack of decorum and would be writing a negative review, he responded sarcastically with "Ooooohhhhhh, I'm going to be on the internet? Big deal, I don't care." Additionally, Joe indicated they are not in the "service" industry and was doing us a "favor" through our real estate agent, and I have no idea why he agreed to provide a service if he's not in the service industry. I am simply a consumer looking to understand a bill. I paid the bill, as I do all my bills, as originally sent, but was unhappy with the back-and-forth on the fix and more incredulous at how I was treated when I called the company to discuss what I didn't understand about that bill. Well Honey, welcome to the internet and for all of you prospective clients out there, please run (don't walk) away from doing business with this company.

We had our kitchen renovated and even after we hit a major snag and had a few hiccups, they remained dedicated to completing the job well, rather than rushing through. There were a few instances where our finished surfaces weren't covered after installation and work was still going on (cabinets, countertop, floors) and it would have been great to have them protected right after installation without us asking, but nonetheless they always followed through on our requests and respected our wishes as the homeowners and the finished kitchen came out great. The crew was respectful and we always felt like they really worked hard to ensure we were happy. Beckmann construction very clearly knows what they are doing and are great at it. We would definitely recommend them!

Niall and his crew are as good as it gets. Niall got me a quote for rebuilding my back porches within a couple of days. The quote was significantly less than the other guys. They said they would start on Monday morning and they did. They said they'd finish on Friday afternoon and they were done by noon on Friday. The new porch is beautiful, well build and sturdy (they actually went a little overboard on sturdy). And they went the extra mile -- extending a cement step when they saw that the new porch stairs were going to hit in an awkward way, completely cleaning up the back yard when they were done. The whole project took up less of my time than I spent getting my front door replaced. The crew are fantastic -- professional, polite, cheerful. Niall responds to phone calls and emails promptly. This was one of the easiest home-improvement experiences I've ever had. Yay!

Hanley Carpentry is a perfect example of a general contractor that puts getting paid and moving on…read moreto the next job ahead of his reputation and having pride in his work. Niall comes off as a nice guy and is undoubtedly a good salesman, but once the work begins things change fast, especially when issues and challenges come up, with which any decent size remodel, they usually do. Here is a top ten list of things that I had to deal with while working with Niall. 1. Niall sold himself as a "premier renovator of Boston Back Bay condos", but it turns out Niall was not even aware of the fact that many condo associations have by-laws that relate to qualifying or restricting renovations. It was his assumption that I could do whatever I wanted in my condo without getting permission from anyone. In fact, after work began and complaints began to roll in, he told me to tell the trustee of the condo association to f*** off and to mind their own business. He also threatened to pull his team out if things got difficult for him. To make matters worse, the trustee is an elderly women that lives right below me, who happens to be recovering from cancer, all of which Niall knew, and didn't care, about. 2. Niall has absolutely ZERO project management skills. The project lasted three months and Niall showed up on the job site at most 8 times, four of which were only to pick up checks. In fact, the first three weeks of the job, which I considered the most important, Niall was laying on a beach somewhere in the Caribbean. Niall conveniently forgot to tell me about this planned vacation before the job started. Niall also promised weekly status reports along with a weekly invoice. This promise was not kept. 3. During the course of the engagement, FOUR of his employees literally walked off the job, just got up and quit midday. Despite that, Niall expected me to pay their day rates as if they worked a full day. 4. Most of Niall's workers are capable and hard-working. However they are given virtually ZERO direction on what needs to be done. Not surprisingly this resulted in quite a few mistakes, which naturally require redoing the work twice and sometimes three times, all of which Niall expects you to pay for. 5. Niall refused to pay for significant damage that his crew caused to a neighbor's apartment, so those repairs ended up being my responsibility which I had to pay for. 6. Whenever something would go wrong, which was quite often, Niall was quick to blame the other contractors that were working on the project. Niall never once accepted responsibility for a mistake that he or his crew made. 7. Niall conveniently and consistently forgot agreed to scope of work. He then tries billing you extra for things that are already included in a project based fee. 8. Niall does not treat his workers well. This manifests itself with some workers moping around, kicking boards, and generally being inefficient. Regardless, Niall expects you to pay for these inefficiencies. 9. Shortly after receiving the last payment from me, which totaled over $70,000, I emailed Niall a punch list of things that I expected to be fixed. Not surprisingly, Niall never responded to that email, never called, never texted, in fact I never heard from him again. Essentially he took the money and ran without finishing the job. 10. I had to call in additional contractors to fix his shoddy work. Each of them commented on the poor craftsmanship and could not believe that another GC could act so irresponsibly. Fortunately I was able to find a few qualified contractors that were able to repair his sloppy work and loose ends. This is the first review I have written in my life. I am normally so busy with work that I wouldn't take the time to go through the trouble of writing something like this, but I think people need to know that there are some really bad, disingenuous contractors out there. I will be posting this review on Angie's list and Yelp. Hopefully it helps spare someone all the trouble that I went through.
