"Earlier this year, a different contractor installed an egress window well and cover. I was very unhappy with the height of the well and finishing details on the cover. An unfinished board was screwed directly to the siding and the cover was mounted to the board. Original contractor was not really interested in making it right. The only way to make it right was a total re-do. Ivan with A&H Home Improvement looked at it and provided a very fair and reasonable estimate to correct the original installation. He was able to schedule this job within a few weeks. The job involved completely digging out the well, replacing one section of siding, mounting a pvc board to the foundation slightly above the well, and mounting the cover to the pvc board. I am 1,000% (yes really 1,000% not just 100%) satisfied with the end result. Ivan was able to use the same well and cover so the cost of this project was basically labor and a few components (pvc board, screws, bolts). The end result is EXACTLY how I imagined it should look. I am very pleased and would definitely call A&H Home Improvement again for home repairs or future projects."

"We are very happy with everything! We love our new covered deck and remote controlled screens! Dave is very nice, personable and knowledgable. From quote to finish we had no problems at all. We have 2 boys and they loved watching him work and he would take the time to talk to them and explain what he was doing and help a little if they could ? I would recommend him to anyone for sure."

"We had been on waiting lists for 3 different handyman services trying to get these installed ASAP and Isaac come through for us. They are exactly what we needed: sturdy & secure. Isaac kept in touch with us & did his best to get the work done as soon as he could. Good communication, both by phone & email. <br />"

"It?s a good group. I?m familiar with them outside of work that I have done with them and I know the owner of the company, he?s a great guy and they do good work. They are a little bit pricey, but the quality is worth it. There was no charge for the quote."
