"I am getting ready for a new kitchen and am acting as an owner contractor, so needed a lot of little things done that a general contractor (like Mark) would normally oversee. Great communication with owner Mark prior to job; he made recs for other contractors I have hired. Day of, there was a little scheduling mix-up, but, soon remedied. Mark and Travis quickly pulled out my old cabinets in great shape so they can go to Rebuilding Center. Then after this was done, Travis took over for the rest of the weekend. He was organized, capable, efficient and thorough, checking with me frequently to make sure projects were meeting my expectations. Both he and Mark frequently said "We just want you to be happy" which is a position I sincerely wish everyone in my life would take! When things came up, as they invariably do, solutions were quickly found, with various outcomes clearly explained. When I originally outlined my project for Mark, he estimated that my do list would exceed the 16 hours I contracted for and this was indeed the case. I plan to finish this project with them. As a single woman, I sometimes feel patronized or, occasionally, have had contractors try to take advantage of my presumed ignorance. I never once felt that these two were anything but respectful, courteous, and desirous of meeting fully my expectations. I would not hesitate to hire them again. I wish my budget would have allowed me to let them manage the whole project!

"The two carpenters were very professional and real craftsmen.  The job was done quickly and great.  We couldn't be happier.

"From estimate to hire there was great communication. The price was a bit higher than other estimates but I'm glad I chose this company. They painted the fascia boards on my two-story multi-level home and did a great job."

"My experience turned out fine.  They seemed very thorough and they were very low key. There was no pressure to do any additional services. I thought they did a good job."

"I cannot speak highly enough of Tom and Brad Green of Colonial Restorations. We have lived in our antique house for 16 years now, and like most old homes, some of its previous repairs were good, some not so good. Tom Green worked on this house for its previous owners, and his work was, by far, the best in the house. So, we continued to use Colonial - Tom, then Tom and Brad - as we learned the ropes about caring for an old house - our first house, old or new. Over the years, they have replaced sills and posts and beams, and rebuilt parts of our loose stone foundation. Most recently, they replaced the last original posts in our basement, (one of which was a tree trunk still with bark on it), including pouring new custom footings, in advance of our finally cementing the dirt floor. The work here is never easy - nothing is level, nothing is square - but the Greens' end result has always been beautiful - strong and made to last. Their prices are fair and without hidden costs....maybe not the lowest bid you might get, but you know it's a real bid that they will stand behind. They triage projects for us, giving us an idea of what other items will likely need attention in the next few years. We're not done with this house yet....we've never won the lottery, and there's always another repair..... and plan to use them again soon. I feel confident knowing that the next owners of this house, whoever they might be, will see the quality of the work and know that we cared enough to have the right people help us with the ongoing repair and maintenance of a 275+ year old house. I am a real person, a real customer, with no ties to the company, and was more than happy to write this review."

"It was really good and I would recommend her. She's really good in managing contractor, she does great work in taking your advise and applying the orders according to your taste."

"We called for an estimate and an appointment was made.  He did not arrive, so we called him after an hour.  He apologized and came right over.  Bob was a very personable fellow and seemed to really know what he was talking about and to fully understand the project.  We looked forward to receiving his estimate.  It did not arrive.  He emailed to say it would arrive the following week.  We never heard from him again.  We hired someone else.
"

"They did a really good job. They talked to me, and I really liked them"

"I will start with the positive and then my feedback where improvement is needed based on my experience.
I am very  happy with my new backyard, the stone work is lovely and definitely an improvement and added value to this home. The overall job is good, I also have some lessons learned as well and things I settled for. The attention to some details and communication is not where it should be. Maybe that is a lesson learned for the company, customer service is as important as the actual work. If someone called me and asked should I hire Prestige for stone work, I would say yes but just as in any construction project look out for yourself, negotiate wisely, speak up, and monitor the project.
The crew ( sub contractors) that they hired to do the stone work did a wonderful job. They were prompt, pleasant to have around the property, and worked very hard. They built a raised patio, a separate circle patio with partial bench, walkways, and garden boxes on one side of the house. They clearly are very good with stone work. If I needed more stone work done I would want this crew back any time. The landscaping clearly is afterthought, my feeling is there should have been a separate crew, trained in landscaping sent out to do that part. Nothing against these guys but  their strength is in the stonework. Fortunately this was a very simple landscape plan.
* gravel was spread under the grass and flower beds. I was told it was for drainage. Truth if you ask me, there was extra gravel ordered they needed to get rid of it. Look up laying sod on the internet you do not see a layer of gravel listed anywhere.
*bark dust was laid down before plants were in so they had to dig bark up to put in plants later.
* side yard gravel path was to have base  bed liner under it. That did not happen , when I questioned it I was told no worries they will get it in. It never got in.
* chopped the lower half off of one of my hedges, I went back in after they were gone and spend about 3 hours trimming and cleaning it up.
* there was an agreement to put support boards along the lower portion of the back fence. this was missed and when I asked about it they did return and put a board on. But not a treated board as it should be, it appears to be  cedar boards perhaps  fence boards nailed along the bottom of the fence. I will be pulling this off and replacing it with a more professional looking and treated support for this fence.
* there was a separate crew who did the building of the fence along one side of the house. They did fine and the fence looks good, I will need to go over it with stain as it is raw cedar.
*attention was paid to cleanup, I have seen some reviews for some contractors where the consumer was left with a mess and Prestige workers were very careful about making sure they cleaned up after themselves.
* every worker who spent time here was polite and hardworking
* the stone work for the two patios, steps and walkways is lovely and well done
The sales process- I will say he took more time with me than another company that I looked at, and did not go with, because they would not even talk design without a check in hand and Prestige was willing to take the time up front.  One piece of feedback is perhaps a bit more  full disclosure in negotiation. When a customer negotiates the price they are talking like for like, not expecting that you are actually cutting out details or quality of product used to lower the price. So to the consumer just negotiate carefully, and be sure you are talking about the same finishes and or quality and you will be fine.
Prestige, your big opportunity for improvement. Communication and follow up. When a customer calls, or emails the office, sales person, or project manager please respond. Also a little more attention to quality in the details, you know the saying the devil is in the details.
