"Arranged sales call with Lisa. Mike came and measured then quoted me a very attractive price for ten windows and a sliding glass door. Wilson came and verified the measurements of the windows and sliding glass door. Wilson and another gentleman installed everything in a day and a half. The entire project from start to finish went very smoothly."

"I paid an excessive amount of money to replace the heating system. The sales rep gave us comfort that everything will be done right and the two experienced and fully licensed professionals will be doing the work and that there is a no-excuse warranty, 1 degree guarantee, and 10 years on both the service and hardware. It just so happened that after the install, I told the installer I smelt gas and to check everything. He simply waved it off and said it's fine, give it some time. I told AJ Perri multiple times that there is a gas leak and I asked them to rectify the situation. I called them multiple times to send someone to fix the issue immediately and urgently, but they refused to commit to any resolution and won't send anyone until the gas is turned off for the whole building. I explained that its a condo and that the unit itself in the utility closet has a separate gas shutoff valve. Knowing this, they refused to remediate the gas leak."

"BEWARE! BEWARE! BEWARE! Stay away and do your research! The majority of these reviews are fake. They run under multiple company names so that they are always the ones that populate your online search when looking for roofers. Scammers!! I had the same experience as another Google Reviewer. They gave us a written contract of $15000 to do the roof and garage. In absolute good faith we gave them a substantial down payment. Silly us. After removing the old roof, we were then told it would be an ADDITIONAL $15,000! There was NO MENTION of DOUBLING COSTS! To top it off, they expected the extra money that same day. As they continued on the roof, the house was in absolute shambles. They hired subcontractors to do the work and what a mess they made. There were shingles, nails, and debris everywhere. They did not install enough tarp to collect the debris. It was all over the front and back yard. Water bottles, food, and roof debris...not at all an acceptable way to leave a house in a pristine neighborhood, yet alone any! Both the front door and back door were blocked OVERNIGHT from the amount of debris left after the first day. Gutters were completely clogged and both cast iron pipes on the top of the roof were so damaged, that we had to call a plumber at 8pm after they left. Water wasn't draining anywhere in the house due to the careless work. The wood shingles on the house were wrecked. They carelessly pulled off the roof and with it, shingles from the house. You can clearly see nails under the roof panels. When we told the boss or owner (not even sure who it was, but he came in another truck and shirt displaying a different name) he finally showed up to take a look at the house (garage was never done) and claimed nothing was wrong. He started cursing and threatening us to pay more money and then said that we had no warranty on the roof anymore. His exact words "I hope the roof leaks all over." Do not trust these guys or the multiple companies they run. They completely took advantage of seniors."

FAQs for wainscoting installation projects in Howell, NJ

Wainscoting is decorative paneling that covers the lower part of a wall for style and protection. Beadboard is a type of wainscoting made of long vertical planks with small raised beads between each board. You’ll see it on walls and ceilings when homeowners want added depth and charm. Both options work indoors or outdoors; beadboard pieces lock together with tongue-and-groove joints, while similar styles, such as shiplap, rely on a square rabbet joint.

The best rule of thumb for wainscoting is to stop the panels at about one-third of the wall height. In a room with a nine-foot ceiling, that’s roughly three feet up. Sticking to this ratio keeps the room balanced, lets plenty of wall color show above the trim, and delivers a polished, timeless look.

Wainscoting can make a room look smaller if the room has low ceilings. The same rule applies to wainscoting as it does to painting any space: to make the room look larger and more open, paint it a light color, such as white or cream. Since beadboard incorporates vertical lines in the paneling, this style of wainscoting is ideal for those wanting to make a room appear larger than it is.

Technically, you can panel any room, but wainscoting shines in open areas, such as a foyer or a tall-ceilinged bathroom. Skip it in small rooms with low ceilings—panels can make tight spaces feel boxed in. Open-concept layouts without clear stopping points along the walls are also tricky, as the trim requires a distinct beginning and end.

Removing existing wall panels before installing wainscoting involves distinct demolition efforts. The cost to hire a professional for demo work is $1.50 per square foot. If the underlying drywall requires replacement after panel removal, an additional fee of $1.60 to $2.35 per square foot is incurred. Completing these tasks properly ensures a sturdy foundation and a flawless finish.
