After 4 weeks of not hearing back from him and reaching out, I got an email from the office staff saying my remodeling was not a good fit for the company. No reason just not a good fit. Maybe it was too small a job and not enough money in their pocket. Anyhow this delay set my plans back 4 weeks. If the job was not a good fit then Cody who now runs the business should have told be the day I talked with him. I'm just extremely disappointed in this business !

What was most disturbing was the swarm of vultures who dove in to try and take advantage of the potential Insurance Money associated with the demolition and rebuild project which lied ahead of us. Thankfully, we did our homework, and did not commit to any of the false promises which most of the initial companies were falsely promising. As business owners ourselves, we had high expectations of the type of quality company we were going to entrust in the work required to work on our home. Through thorough research and interviews, we settled on working with Santoro Home Improvements.... and couldn't be happier with the result! Tony was an excellent communicator. He was honest & fair in his proposals & prompt with his replies. He and his team executed their tasks in a punctual manner, and took it upon themselves to review the job upon completion. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND working with Tony and his Team at Santoro!!

Our plan…read morewas to build a significant addition to our son and daughter- in- law's historic home for us as we were in the process of downsizing. We wanted a contractor in the area of our new dwelling and searched the internet. After several calls we got to Santoro and we had a good feeling immediately. We met with Tony and knew we had the right people for our project. Tony spent time with us and put all our concerns to rest including connecting us to a very capable architect who was equally as nice and kind as Tony. The planning and construction took several months in including Covid but was smooth and orderly. If there were any glitches they were minor and taken care of right away but nothing affecting the big picture. We moved in on New Year's Day 2021 and could not be more satisfied. For us this was a huge undertaking with selling our house, planning where to go next and the move itself. I think Tony realized this and his patience and kindness made this whole thing a lot less stressful than we anticipated. Overall we are all happy and comfortable in our new house and could not be more grateful that we found Tony and Santore Home Improvements. Marie & John G. Hamden,Ct

My first project with Mr. Ralph was to finish up a DIY project I started and did not have the skills or time to finish. The work was extremely affordable, quick, and done well. I have an old house with many poorly done home renovations by the previous owners, he has dealt with them professionally and patiently. I have since used him for 4 other projects, most recently an extensive bathroom renovation. I am eager to learn skills that will help me do projects better myself and he has been a great teacher, not only in prioritizing projects based on what is important, but also in the materials and techniques. Projects do tend to go a little past the quoted time frame but it is because he cares about the details and doesn't hurry over the unexpected issues that pop up with old homes. He treats us like family and will probably end up re-doing every room here. If you want a rush job without quality or are overbearing I would pass on hiring him. We couldn't be happier with his work and professionalism!

Please do your research. Mr. Ralph Home Improvement is NOT a licensed home improvement/kitchen…read morerenovation contractor. Although, I asked on our initial conversation and he confirmed that he was licensed. After seeing the pictures of a new kitchen and reading the excellent reviews posted on yelp I contacted Mr. Ralph. He first gave me a labor cost of to renovate my kitchen for $3,000. After a few days he text me dropping his price to $2,700. He said he understood my situation & was willing to help me out. Few days later he went to my home, measured, sent me a shopping list of the items I needed. I ordered them through Lowes. Had them delivered bc his truck didn't have room/space for all the materials. While waiting on the new cabinets he demoed the old kitchen cabinets, painted the ceiling, walls and trim. This is where things began to go south: After noticing the old wall were the original cabinets were not painted, I asked him why not paint the old walls? He was resistant bc the new cabinets where going to be installed and no one would see it. He later gave in & began painting the old yellow walls. He charged $500 for the paint job + I purchased the paint. The quality I was promised was NOT what I or my real estate agent was seeing. The purpose of this project was to renovate my old kitchen so I can list the house for sale. After telling Mr. Ralph I was not happy on how large the gap between the refrigerator and top cabinet is I asked if perhaps the cabinet can be switched to a bigger/more functional size. At first he told me the gap can be covered if I placed something on top of refrigerator. I said ok. I thought perhaps a sign or basket would do the work. A few days later my realtor goes in, sees the cabinets and was also not pleased. She's sold properties for many yrs and is able to tell something is wrong right away. She called me up- bc I'm out of state- sent me more pics and strongly encouraged me to get the right cabinets for this area. After reaching out to Mr. Ralph he became belligerent, said I was micromanaging him and should trust the process. Mr. Ralph then texted me to let me know he was packing up & leaving. He demanded the rest of the $ owed which I had paid 1/2 of what he was charging me up front. Told me the job he was doing cost a lot more than $2,700 yet that was the cost he gave me. He told me if I did not paying him the rest of the $ owed he would not return. I asked him: would you pay for a job you are not happy with? A job that hasn't been completed? No, I didn't pay him & thankfully did not return. I failed to do my research for project. As a first time home owner who moved out of state & needs to sell the home. I trusted someone who told me on many occasions he was professional, experienced and meticulous at his craft. For this I'm paying the price. Please do not make the same mistake. Do not take a contractor's word no matter how nice they seem. No matter how many times they tell you they understand and want to help you. Ask to see proof- which I was never provided. All I received was an invoice for the renovation of kitchen cabinets and painting of my kitchen. I'm glad I listened to my realtor. In less than 24 hours of Mr. Ralph walking out of this project a new certified/experienced/recommended contractor stepped in. He wasn't shocked of the quality/service I received. Unfortunately, he's had to step in to fix jobs like the one I was left with. The new contractor confirmed: All the cabinets and counter top that were initially ordered were measured incorrectly & ALL the materials which were order needed to be returned w/ the exception of the ones already installed- bc those can't be refunded since they've been drilled in. I've lost $ & a lot of time. My home was suppose to be listed already. I lost $1,600: $1,350 ($2,700) was given as a deposit + $250 ($500) for kitchen paint job. I now have to pay extra to get the job done correctly- so basically I got what I paid for . Lesson learned. Do YOUR RESEARCH. No proof of licenses, no contract, no drawings, etc no business/$.

We hired Cipriani to replace our sun porch with Timbertek patio boards. They also worked with a…read morelocal subcontractor to custom build our screens and removable inserts to make the space a nearly 4 season room. Let's start with the pros. They were excellent communicators throughout the process. Richard did our initial quote, then Mike throughout the build. They were always timely and professional, and I never felt any of my questions were stupid or minimized. Once the build started, they kept me updated in both timing of different parts of the project and also how the payment structure was broken down. We use this space constantly because I love how it turned out, so that's the other pro. Once it was done it was immediately usable. The main con was that we had to wait a bit due to projects in front of ours, and the weather/temperature since the build involved concrete pillars. We knew this project would not be cheap, but that was mainly due to the materials and the additional time those materials inserted into the build. For example, you cannot see any fastener holes from the top of any of the boards. We already have Cipriani in mind for our kitchen remodel in the near future. I highly recommend them. We've worked with a number of contractors over the years (old house, go figure!) and they were so much better than any of the others.
