They were polite and courteous the whole time and didn't make me feel bad for being an idiot. Today, a snow storm dropped almost 2 feet of snow. I had trouble with my snowblower so I called them to pick it up since I couldn't bring it in. When he came to pick it up, he took a quick look at it and discovered the problem. A broken shear pin. He fixed it right away and didn't even have to take the machine back to his shop. Very helpful since this storm is likely to drop another 6-12 inches before it's done. I highly recommend Max S.

Not a good place for mower repairs and not good business practices overall…read more Visited with my machine and let them know what I needed. (Mower blade replacement and check battery - trouble starting) Was quoted a price/estimate and the rough ballpark of time it would take based on what I wanted to be serviced on my rider mower. Several additional things were offered or heavily encouraged during the "intake". I explained that I thought that I didn't need much, tractor was relatively new and ran fine and little to no hours of use on it. Gentlemen that did intake said something like - well we check everything or recommend oil change and such if we are going to put time or labor into it anyway. I asked for approx price of each service. He said they would call me with a specifics and a quote and exact details/prices and wouldn't do anything without my explicit consent. He did say it was busy season, that everyone was getting lawn equipment, machines, and snow removal equipment tuned up and ready or fixed and that it would take a week or 2 before mine would be looked at - because a few machines were ahead of me - absolutely fine. I explained that time frame worked fine - that I didn't need it right back that week or even 2, that I would actually be away for a week - so the timeline fit perfect for me. He also explained typical prices of each of the things he recommended and kind of blew it off saying under 100 or so or if not - not much more. Yea, none of it was true or close to accurate at all. A few weeks went by and I hadn't heard so I followed up and called. They said they would check on it and get back to me. later they called and said it hadn't been looked at yet!? I said how can that be - and he said well there is a note that said you would be away so we didn't start on it or even look at it. That's a huge fail. They also basically admitted (and I watched it happen with my own eyes) that they let regulars skip the line and backlog. So fine, I had to wait, not a deal breaker. They called back a week or 2 later with a quote of 600 dollars. I was blown away and confused? for blade replacements or sharpening? This can't be. Well they said when we looked at some of the stuff, they recommended (or already did the work without my authorization - like promised) that some of the pulleys and pieces were worn and they felt needed replacement. I specifically said I didn't want any extras or new battery or anything until I was given the prices. I went back to get my machine and asked to speak to manager about price. He took off an hour of labor and reduced price of some of the parts to help me. Now, the price of parts was double or triple what I can get them for at Lowe's or online, so I understand markup but that's just shady and inexcusable. Even with the doscount it was more than double or triple what I was planning and agreed to spend. Guy said it would be 100 or under 2 tops. They wanted me to pay $500 or 450 plus tax for me to get my mower back! It gets even worse: The mower was sitting outside in the snow and soaked and covered in ice and snow and it wouldn't start. I've never once in my life had this machine not in a garage or shed but apparently it had sat outside in the rain and snow and ice for the 6 weeks they had it. One of the reasons I brought it in was the battery/mower wouldn't start. They said that was solved - but then it wouldn't start when I came to pick it up and get it up on my trailer to leave. They called technician that apparent "did the work" to come assist or take care of it and he couldn't get it going so they had more guys come out and help. They were training him in front of me. Not a good look. I left, with my machine in worse condition then it arrived in, costed me $500, took many more weeks then promised, was subjected to rain, snow and ice with no covering, tarp or care and when I mowed a sample patch of lawn- the blades were so uneven, it left lines in my yard - not minor, like the deck and blades weren't leveled at all. Poor service. Cannot recommend. I would rather drive an hour away then support the local guy in town - and that's a shame - I had several other machines with needs - snowblower; other mower, etc, and they lost my business forever - and I will spread the word. Shame on you Max Wood

Mine had not been pumped in nearly 15 years, so I gave Maggio & Sons a call. I was amazed that they offered to fit my house in their schedule for the very next day. The only requirement was that I have my tank top open and ready for them when they arrived. (So....you must locate and dig to expose your septic tank cover on your own -- usually not difficult). They arrived with their truck right on time the next day, navigated their huge truck backwards up my narrow drive expertly and had the pump pumping into the truck in just a few minutes. The whole pumpout process took only 15-20 minutes, and they were gone. Very courteous, efficient service. I recommend Maggio and Sons for septic service unhesitatingly.

It would be an understatement that my project was complicated and intimidating. Sitting on a 50 +…read morefoot high cliff, I had a retaining wall separating from my backyard in desperate need of replacement. Limited access to the property and backyard further complicated the scope and ease of executing this project. My wife and I solicited several inquiries from different contractors, and were only made more aware of the complications and challenges ahead based upon the lack of willingness many demonstrated in taking on this project for us. Finding a contractor willing to navigate the challenges of the property while executing within a realistic timeline and within an affordable price seemed impossible. That was until we spoke with Maggio. Artie was confident from day one that he and his team would be able to create an attainable resolution. Artie and his team came up with several approaches we could take on executing the retaining wall replacement, provided us a reasonable price, and then met every benchmark set during our project planning and execution. While on site, Maggio's team was efficient and effective proceeding with care and safety but working at a pace that exceeded our expectations. The completed work is gorgeous and far exceeded our expectations for what our backyard would look like. It's already been such a tremendous relief to have our backyard secured, rebuilt, and drained correctly to avoid erosion damage like we experienced with the previous retaining wall. Through the entire process, we felt like Maggio was working with us to succeed on this project and continually exceeded our expectations. I have no doubt now that not only was Maggio the right team for this project, but the right team for any future landscaping/hardscaping projects that remain for my property in the future. Thank you Artie, Stephen, and Peter Maggio for all your support and hard work here at Cliff House.

In that, I mean that there was very little "chat" or personal interaction on the salespersons part and we were left alone for far longer than we wanted. Everytime we had a question we had to go looking for someone who might have an answer or maybe even (If we were lucky) find where our salesperson kept disappearing too when we were literally the only customers in the store. To be clear, It was OK and just OK. In our experience...when trying to support local businesses, we generally find a much higher level of customer involvement by the business. This was most definitely not the case here. The feeling that we got was one of......buy or don't buy....makes no difference to us. For absolutely sure we have received much friendlier and helpful service at the big box stores (Lowe's, Home Depot, Sams Club and Costco) and frankly expected a much better experience than we received from this store which on that day....at that time.....at least appeared to not care one way or the other about us or whether we purchased from them or not. We were in desperate need of the appliances and they were in stock and ready for delivery.....so, minus all the love.....we bought the appliances and gave serious consideration as to whether we would ever go there again.

I finally reached Baumanns septic company - and told my story to the owner on the phone! She was very compassionate to our situation and sent 2 gentleman over to pump out the septic and fix the situation for us. We were so grateful to them, coming out on the Sunday of a holiday weekend when others turned us down. And the men were friendly and thorough with the job! I would highly recommend this company for all of your septic needs. We will certainly be using them for all of our septic maintenance in the future. Thank you Baumann's!
