Little A was hired by my contractor to fill in a gap from a poor installation job by another…read morecompany before I bought the house. They also refinished the wood floor and did a nice job on the refinishing, however they did not fill in the gap. My contractor reached out to them several times and I tried contacting them also. We never got a response. They did get paid in full by my contractor, so now they don't need to finish the job I guess is their attitude. It would have been good if they filled in the gap, which I don't know how they missed it.

We hired Bannister's in 2012 to put on siding and a roof. A couple of years later we noticed that…read morethe facia and soffits were starting to separate and our power lines were attached We contacted Bannisters repeatedly and told that they would stop by and take care of it. They never showed up. More contacts, no response. They finally showed up to assess the damage, 8 years later and told us the damage was caused by water and they would fix it. In contacting them to find out when they would show up to do the repairs we were told they were swamped and would get to us when they could, They never came back. Then covid hit. I reached out to them again this spring and received no response at all, so I can only assume they will not make the repairs. We assume that the damage was caused from not being sealed properly. 9 years later we ended up with a house that is falling apart along with brand new windows molding and birds making their home in the holes. So even though they claim to operate with integrity and honesty, beware, as I should of! And by the way, I do not live n California, I live in Burlington, Vt.

From start to finish we found them courteous, constructive and very professional. Our job was complex and was done in two phases so we worked with two crews. Both were hard working and attentive to our requests--which included extensive trouble-shooting. Both crew chiefs were genuine artisans. The results are beautiful--our opinion and everyone who knows or visits our home. Simply said, they are masters at metal roofing. We are very satisfied with the process and the results.

During that time, Top Notch Roofing caused our home to flood, causing the bedroom ceiling to collapse and requiring full insulation and ceiling replacement. The living room developed two additional leaks due to their shoddy work, which meant more ceiling repairs and repainting the entire open-concept space. Our front yard was left destroyed after equipment and materials sat there for over 90 days. It wasn't just a mess; the material sat there for an entire summer; killing our lawn in the process. The crew was inconsistent at best; often no-shows, with little to no cleanup when they did come. When asked, they said they were from "Lowell"; which we assumed was local (Lowell, VT), but it turned out they were commuting from Lowell, MA. To our house in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont. Gabe and Drew built porch stairs that weren't up to code. When Dave, the owner, finally came to assess their work, he made them tear it out and rebuild it, but not before we were treated to the comedy gold that was Drew jumping up and down on the steps in an attempt to prove they were "fine." Dave also made everybody clean up the front yard, which took close to two hours between four people (Drew, Gabe, Jessica, Dave). Despite claiming on their website to be "fully insured," we learned that their insurance only covers subcontractors, not their own crew. So any work performed by Gabe or Drew or supervised by them isn't covered. Their own insurance company assessed $86,000 in damages to our home, and those are just the parts they acknowledged. After two rounds of "repairs" by a different crew, Dave parted with the words, "We can't do any better." I'll let the photos speak for themselves. TopNotch? More Bottom of the Barrel

Strait-forward and honest communication throughout project from Derek and Nicole was great. I have a small home in an historic district that needed structural repair, new siding and trim, and other attention. Derek's willingness to approach the project in sections to help me determine affordability options was a great stress reliever. The quality of work, his team of professionals, and his willingness to help navigate the historic requirements and restrictions was amazing! They worked to schedule-as unpredictable Adirondack weather allowed, and kept in close contact to keep me updated. I had looked into using LaFountain Builds earlier, but when I saw the level of work they do, I was certain I could not afford them. Big mistake! You definitely get what you pay for! I wasted a great deal of money and time going with someone else first that wasn't able to do the work and made things worse. Can't recommend LaFountain Builds enough! My house looks new and historically accurate at the same time!
