"Mike Atwell of J May Home Inspection recently inspected my new condo. He was extremely helpful from our first phone conversation and throughout the inspection. He was very punctual and spent three hours looking closely at every feature of my home. He did not rush, answered my questions and patiently explained how many of the systems and features work. He sent me a detailed, preliminary report within 24 hours, and quickly followed up with a final report by US mail. My realtor said she had never seen such a comprehensive inspection report. Mr. Atwell is a consummate professional, with more than 20 years' experience as a home inspector, building consultant, teacher, former president and VP and active board member of the American Society of Home Inspectors. He is committed to educating and protecting consumers and is driving legislation to do so. Read: [*** Link removed ***] I highly recommend J May Home Inspection."

"Stuart is professional, thorough, responsive and very knowledgeable. He patiently answered all of our questions throughout the inspection and we left feeling like we had a great understanding of the home we're buying. As for the inspection report itself, I intend to reference it for months and years to come as I prioritize improvements. Stuart was also able to turn the report around quickly to accommodate the timelines of our purchase. I would 100% recommend him to anyone in need of home inspection services."

"A very thorough home inspection with a very knowledgeable inspector who has excellent communication skills."

"Hiring Mark to do a home inspection for a property that my wife and I are buying was worth every penny of his fee. Mark was available to do our home inspection the day after I called him and he was punctual. He spent over 2 hours and carefully inspected and ran each appliance that was in the home, checked the hot water temperature, checked each and every light and outlet throughout the house, garage and attic and did a complete inspection of the underside of the home. He also inspected the roof, exterior of the home and made recommendations. He provided us with a 45 page inspection report within an hour of the conclusion of the inspection and picked up on some marginal items that I had not noticed. Mark is a knowledgeable, professional, and qualified home inspector and I would not hesitate to hire him in the future."

"I found Beantown Home Improvement when I went to a home show in January of 2018 I talked a little at the time to several groups there about siding and later set up appointments to visit my home. I like Beantown Home Improvement for several reason Jim the owner gave me several phone numbers of jobs down in the past to call which I did and I talked to 7 different home owners who had similar work done on their home and all were very happy with the way their project went. Beantown was very up front with all the information cost etc. What I like the most about them was when I sent a email with a question I had a answer sometimes in ten minutes but always with in the hour regardless of when I sent the email or what day I sent it there was no chasing after the contractor to get the job done or answer question. Once the job started the crew was here until the job was completed and inspected along with the final inspector by the owner of the company. The crew did a great job each day very respectful clean up the work site each day. I have a fairly large home and they got the job down in less than 3 weeks. Very happy with the work the house looks great"

"Joe and his team were tasked with repairing a section of our condo's roof that had been leaking into our kitchen and dining room.  He did a fantastic job repairing and the damaged rubber roof (which first required the removal of a dilapidated roof deck, which Joe and his guys took care of for us), removing rotten wood and old insulation, and replacing the entire area with brand new, commercial-grade material.  They were professional, timely, and respectful of our home.  Highly recommended!"

"My new windows look amazing! From the first meeting, to the installation to the closing inspection, we knew we picked the right company. The staff that installed the windows were efficient, knowledgable and very professional."

"Jason did an excellent job with the slate roof repair work. He did a thorough inspection on the roof, recommended a reasonable scope of work, and carried through in a timely manner. This really stood out compared with some other companies that tried to quote us with expensive repairs that was not well justified. On top of that the communication was great, the start date was pushed back a few times due to the weather but updates were given well in advance so that I can plan accordingly."

"Like most home owners, we've had our share of contractor nightmares, and were bracing ourselves for yet more problems.  But working with Tim and his crew was the best experience imaginable.  We received bids from two companies.  The bid from the first company, which has also received high marks on Angieslist, was considerably higher in price, and while friendly, the company representative with whom we met did not show interest in examining roof from inside attic, just walked around the outside of the house and then provided a written quote a few days later.  When we met with Tim, from On Top, he was very meticulous in his examination of the roofing situation, both inside and out.  Further, given the fact that we frequently get ice dams, he suggested that his crew put down a 12' ice shield on the back roof (rather than the usual 6', as suggested by the representative from the other company), since that part of the roof faces North.  We decided to go with Tim, due to his level of professionalism, his very friendly manner, and the more affordable pricing.  In the days leading up to the work, he was exceedingly kind and patient in responding to numerous emails regarding our choice of roofing (in the end, we went with Certainteed Landmark, which--after much research on our part--seemed to be the most reliable and attractive choice, and we are thrilled with the result).  We set a date and time to begin work, and at 8:00 a.m. sharp on that date, the crew (about 7 people total!), showed up and energetically began tearing off our old roof.  In the course of their work, they replaced a great deal of rotted roof wood before beginning the new roof.  These guys worked unbelievably hard, all day long, barely taking time for lunch.  In addition to the exterior roofing, they removed all the old, disintegrating insulation from the attic, made some attic repairs, and put up some baffling for heat distribution. By the end of the day, more than half the work was done.  They were all, without exception, friendly and professional.  Before they left, they cleaned everything up, to the point where--if you didn't look at the roof--you wouldn't have guessed that any work was in progress on the property!  At 8:00 a.m. the next morning, they were back, worked just as hard, and by the time they had finished the front roof, the gutter person showed up (also super-friendly and professional), as if by magic (in terms of timing). The guys finished the entire roof by around 3:00 p.m.; the gutters were done by 5:00 p.m., and the clean-up by both was spotless.  Seriously, this company is "top-notch," and we can't recommend them highly enough.

"Gleyson came and inspected and measured my roof. He explained to me in terms that I could understand exactly what needed to be done. He and his crew arrived at 7 am and the job was completed at 1 pm. Friendly and professional workers also exceeded my expectations with a great clean up. I will recommend Vellox to friends and family. Several neighbors have complemented on the work performed. Unlike other companies, he sold me on his performance od service as opposed to other contractors that tried to sell their long and storied history with a (useless) company history. Great work and humility will will serve the customer better."
