"Brian was very professional and quick to respond. However it turned out that our problem was not something he could handle. We really needed a HVAC person, but if I ever do need an electrician, I would certainly call Brian again."

"Did a good job. Came in with 'booties' on to protect my floors. Knew my job would take a while so they sent two teams. They also worked well with everybody in the house situation, I had people putting in an alarm system and resurfacing a tub all at the same time. I also felt the final bill was very reasonable given the time they put into the project. I had all of the wall sockets switched out, a flat screen TV mounted with new outlets placed behind it, a new fan installed, and special dimmer switches set up in two of my bedrooms and it all went smoothly."

"Mr. Jernigan came out on a Friday and gave us an estimate and explained what the work would entail. He answered all our questions. He told us he would call us to set a date for the installation. He called back on Monday and came out the next day. Mr. Jernigan was on time , had all the tools necessary and completed the installation of 4 under cabinet lights, light over the sink, overhead light, and new switches that afternoon. He was very professional, friendly, and made sure we were happy with the placement of all the lighting. Before leaving he cleaned the work area. GREAT JOB, Mr. Jernigan. Will call you for our next electrical job. Diane L."

"We met at a Home Depot to  pick up the door and supplies.  He cut the plywood that I had purchased previously and when he removed the rotting board, he noticed an infestation underneath.  I was very glad that he took the time to  point it out so that I could treat the area before replacing the board.  The reason I gave a B for professionalism is that he talked on his phone a majority of the time while he was working.  I mentioned my dismay because I didn't think he could work as efficiently, but he thought otherwise. The door installation went well and he finished in the allotted 4 hours.  I was satisfied with the quality of his work.

"I called Mike after one of the boards from the gable came off during a storm and noticed the others looked to be in bad shape as well. Mike was very able to give us an estimate from a picture I emailed him and said he would check the boards on the other side of the house when he came out. We ultimately ended up deciding to replace the slats on both ends of the house the day work was to begin. The crew removed all the old wood and cut the new boards to match the size of the old slats. They then painted, caulked and also replaced the screen located behind the slats. The weather was not cooperating the first day and it started to rain after the slats were down, but they made sure the house was properly protected till work could resume. They also worked late when they returned to finish up the bulk of the job. Mike and his guys were all friendly, extremely knowledgeable, and quick to address any concerns I had- they really want a person to be happy with the end result. We were very pleased with quality of the work and would hire again."

"Technician came to the house and analyzed the problem. It was determined that the cost of repair was over the allowable Choice Home Warranty limit and it should be replaced. Choice Home Warranty issued their replacement cost. This cost was unacceptable and I challenged their figure. After some negotiation I was offered an increased settlement amount. I still balked at their offer but I was told to take it or repair my old microwave. I finally accepted their amount, even though it is still well below what it will cost me to replace the unit. I might add that the existing microwave has the convection feature and I want to replace with same features. The cost that I will receive also does not include any removal, disposal or installation costs. At this time I am debating whether I will continue with Choice Home Warranty or consider other options."

"Dave and his team of subcontractors were very professional and usually on time. I thought they did a good job. But I just had a problem with my wine cooler, which they had installed, less than 2 years ago. I tried calling owner(David) and he would not return my phone call. I thought they did a good job until I needed to have Wine cooler serviced. We could not get wine cooler out from under counter. They just put in hole, the flooring under was 3/8 in lower than the tile in front of it.  I left message for owner David Smith to call me, I had a problem, he never called me back. I guess it was take the money and run.  The only way to get wine cooler out was to cut up a good fairly new( 2 years old) wine cooler. I am very disappointed. I had to purchase a new wine cooler and have a contractor do it right, this time. making the flooring even before installation. Because due to the levelers in back we could not get out from under cabinets with out ruining the wine cooler. So in the long run, they cost me over $1,000 to fix what they could have doen when they did the job for less than $25.

"I purchased the Big Deal on 6/4/15 for $1499. I spoke to Stephanie that day and arranged for Dan Belletto to come to the house on 6/23/15 to measure my shower (75 SF by his measurements). He let me know that there would be additional charges associated with this Big Deal.  I told Dan that I wanted to have a niche and a frameless shower door at this meeting (and an exhaust fan moved but I later decided not to do this because it was too expensive).  I was hoping that he would bring the 5 samples of tile that I could choose from (as was mentioned in the deal), but he said that I was responsible for purchasing the tile with a $350 budget. He recommended "The Tile Shop," in Lynnhaven Mall, as a good source for purchasing the tile.  I soon discovered that the $350 allotted for the tile would not be nearly enough to cover my needs so I paid for the additional tile myself.  The job began on July 1st and Clarence, my tile man, said that he would be done by Saturday July 4th.  There were some setbacks because the Tile Shop forgot to give Clarence my entire order.  They (The Tile Shop) forgot the niche and later on I realized that they also had forgotten the backsplash that I wanted to use for the niche.  I only discovered this after Clarence had tiled the inside of the niche with the wall tile.  He offered to undo it but I decided not to and just cancelled the backsplash part of the order. I had to order additional tile twice during this job which was frustrating because it added almost $200 and an extra week.  Clarence had to make at least one trip/day to Home Depot to purchase items for the job which reduced the amount of time that he had to work.  It would have been better if he had been more prepared.   This process has been much longer and much more expensive than I ever imagined. The Angie's List Big Deal was supposed to include 5 different options for tile but instead, I was given a $350 budget that was insufficient to tile my shower (I have spent over $700 in tile alone and I chose one of the least expensive options.  $200 of this was due to underestimating the amount of tile necessary for the job. I was also charged $53 for insulation (much of which was not even used). The quote for the extra costs that were included by the contractor were the following:
Install new shower body valve (homeowner to provide) $200
Install new exhaust fan (contractor to provide) $200 (we didn't do this)
Install custom niche $150
Repair ceiling  $200 (not done due to cost)
Total=   $750.00 in additional charges
My extra costs were:
$350 for extra tile needed to finish the job
$192 for the Shower Valve
$200 to build the opening to fit the frameless shower door
$50 for insulation
$150 for custom niche
$200 to install the new shower body valve
$400 for the frameless shower door (PLUS $200 for them to install it)
Total Cost for the new shower:  $1499 (Big Deal Cost) + $1742 = $3241.00
I was disappointed because I had stated that I wanted to put in a frameless shower door and was later told (after my written quote) that it would be an additional $200 for this to be done.  I was also disappointed because I had to spend more than twice the budget figure for the tile (and the square footage was below the quoted allowance at 75 SF).  Additionally, the shower door was installed backwards the first time and had to be re-installed which added time and the grout does not match the rest of the shower.  On 9/14/15 I requested to have Clarence come back to put in the missing screw to hold up the door.  All screws were there when he installed the door the first time but he has never come.
 Installing the door was really a 2-person job.  Clarence, the tile guy, was overextended.  Belletto Construction should allow their installers to finish a job before having them move on to a new one.  This job would have been completed on time if they had not overbooked my tile guy. On the whole, he did a good job but was unable to finish in a timely manner due to possible scheduling conflicts that were beyond his control.  I would suggest to Mr. Belletto that he complete a current job before beginning another.

FAQs for attic or whole house fan installation projects in Norfolk, VA

Installing an attic fan lowers attic temperatures and reduces moisture, protecting stored items and extending the life of roofing materials. It also prevents mold, mildew, and paint deterioration, enhancing energy efficiency and comfort in the home. This type of protection helps you avoid costly repairs in the future and maintains the integrity of your home.

Installing an attic fan may require multiple professionals. A roofing specialist or carpenter can create the vent and mount the fan securely, while a licensed electrician connects the system to the home's electrical supply. A dedicated attic fan installer may be able to tackle all of these areas themselves, so be sure to confirm what services they can provide. Hiring qualified professionals ensures the installation is safe and the attic fan operates reliably.

The lifespan of an attic fan depends on the type and how well it is maintained. Passive attic fans can last 40 to 50 years, while electric and solar models typically last 10 to 15 years. Regular cleaning and maintenance help ensure the fan operates reliably and safely. Ask your installation pro for their recommendations for ongoing maintenance and service to help your attic fan last for as long as possible.
