Moving day can be stressful and not having a well planned estimate will cause issues…read more We were quoted $1,300 - $1500 for two men and a half day. We were asked to send pictures of all our items so they can fine-tune the estimate and make sure they are properly prepared to meet the customers' needs. We followed their request and sent pictures of EVERY item to be moved. Subsequent to sending the pictures the estimator said that after reviewing the photos he would like to add an additional man and increase the time based on his review of the photos. Their proposal was increased slightly ($1,500 - $1,700) (we had no issues with the request), and we awaited their arrival on moving day. Moving day came the workers on the truck were very nice. However mid-way through moving things went south fast. The workers broke an expensive glass bar cart and called to inform their home office. The original estimator then called to say we had more stuff than anticipated and the truck was full. The stuff was exactly what was in the one dozen photos sent two weeks prior to the move. These photos contained all the furniture and all of boxes that we had packed for the move. He then proceeded to state that we "didn't inform them there were boxes to move" (a complete lie). We calmly said two of the pictures sent to you (which the workers on site actually had on their cell phones) have a stack of boxes in the family room and another from the garage. He said well, "people move their boxes themselves sometimes'". Our response was simply questioning why we would have sent the pictures, at their request, if we intended to move them on our own. After arriving at 11:05 and deciding they were done at 5:30 sharp, the movers left over 20% of the remaining contents. They said they needed to move what they have in the truck and "they would come back the next day", but we would be getting another quote for the remaining move. When I questioned the additional quote the gentleman from the home office then revised it talk track to say he would not be able to insure he could come back tomorrow (Saturday, knowing the house was being sold) and stated and he would do it in 3 days (past the date of the house being sold) but the quote had to be signed to get on a possible schedule. He carried on saying "couldn't disrupt his clients already on tomorrows schedule". I guess its OK to disrupt a client by leaving 20% of the job behind. His quote for completing the move arrived the next day and the move would now be almost double the original price! Needless to say we quickly found an honest and reputable company for less than 1/2 of the additional quote from Two Movers. Two days later they sent a final bill for $800.00 more than his revised estimate, bringing the total moving cost to more than twice their original estimated when added to the additional mover we had to hire. We informed them of their error in number of hours billed, and reminded them they didn't complete the job, and that they broke the bar cart. Their response was that the bar cart isn't covered as they were not specifically informed of it in the move list, but they would give me $50.00 for it even though it was included in the pictures we had sent which prompted them to increase the original estimate. They said any items not specifically "written" on the contact were not their liability! The reality is they received pictures of all the items being moved, they double checked those photos well enough to increase the estimate to include an additional man. While we hope for a fair resolution that accurately accounts for actual hours worked and the damage to the property they caused, we have so far not heard back from them revising their billing or received any apology for the distasteful experience Update : The owner called apologized for the stress and miscommunications and we settled on a fair amount for the work they did The owner was very nice and concerned about our experience and perception of his office staff because it's not what the majority of his customers experience according to him My advice ask a lot of questions and list as many of your bigger or more expensive/delicate items upfront so you can openly discuss how they will be handled. Ask about travel timing billing and supplemental insurance for your property

I made it clear that I had a lot of large, heavy furniture and I also told them the sizes of the two storage units that I wanted emptied and brought to my new house.

They did bring most of the large, heavy stuff but took NONE of the boxes. Now I am left to empty half of a 10x25 unit in MANY trips in my car. Not only that, but one of the movers spent a lot of time trying to get out a splinter (using tweezers that I offered) and using the bathroom and the other guy stood around waiting for him. This caused me to be charged for an extra hour. I'm grateful for what they did, but it wasn't as much as I was expecting. I'm older and on a limited budget so I went with the lower priced option because she said they would handle it, but they didn't and now my arthritic knees and back are paying for it.

When our pipes froze during the big storm this January (thankfully, without water in them), we decided to hire Plumbums again. That didn't go as well. Quality of work: The fixes Jim suggested (a series of individual junction fixes) seemed reasonable for the repairs needed, but in some cases replacing whole sections would have been more time- and cost-efficient (according to other plumbers we've had in our home who have seen the work done). And we needed four return visits within our first three days living in the house to address issues that had not been resolved or that popped up as soon as we turned systems on. One problem (heat running constantly on our first floor, making the house over 80 degrees in the winter) was unresolved until I researched possible causes myself and communicated that to Jim, who sent out one of his guys to implement the fix. Professionalism: We were frustrated by the lack of care shown toward our property. Jim's guys left plumbing debris (not just the stuff our homeowner's insurance requested, but just straight-up trash), food trash, and drywall dust in our basement and living areas. This means that the first thing we had to do after driving 3,200 miles to move in was clean up after them. Drywall was removed roughly in several locations, and although patching was not included in the estimate, the cuts themselves appeared unnecessarily sloppy (and our new plumber neatly cuts and replaces drywall as a matter of course, leaving the mudding to us, which is fine). Plumbums did work well with our insurance company to get our claim handled, and ultimately we have working plumbing. But our experience wasn't great.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about A Happy Home Maintenance. Gene and Kevin are phenomenal! Having built two homes in the past, we have worked with many contractors over the years. A Happy Home Maintenance is by far the BEST! We live in a historic home in Glastonbury and when it came time to re-do our antiquated kitchen we hired A Happy Home Maintenance. From start to finish the process couldn't have been better! Work was completed in a timely manner. They were completely honest and reliable and always did everything they said they would. Gene contacted us via emails and texts throughout the process - keeping us updated as well as involved in decisions as they cropped up. We felt like we were all collaborators in the process. Not only did they help us make decisions when we needed to but they also respected the decisions we made along the way. There were no surprises because Gene kept us involved and updated with everything. We have pretty high expectations and A Happy Home Maintenance certainly exceeded them! It's never easy having your daily routine upended with a remodeling project but Gene and Kevin made things as smooth and easy as possible. Their work product and ethics are exceptional! They are straightforward and honest and were a real joy to work with. At the end of the project we were sad to see them go! When there were hiccups (as there invariably are in remodeling projects with an old home) - Gene and Kevin were there with wonderful suggestions and innovative ideas on how to tackle them. We had an ordering problem with our cabinets and Gene came to the rescue on the spot and thought up a creative solution that saved the day! They worked quickly and efficiently and always cleaned everything up. Every day was like Christmas - coming home from work and seeing so much wonderful work done! One big plus is that Gene and Kevin really take pride in the work that they do. They take the extra effort to create a wonderful job from start to finish and really want you to be happy the project. They truly want you to have a Happy Home! Just seeing their attention to detail and dedication to giving you great work is amazing. Especially seeing as how we have an old home that isn't especially easy to remodel! The work they did to get around uneven floors and walls, etc - Phenomenal! Our kitchen has been transformed from an old dated room into our dream kitchen and we have A Happy Home Maintenance to thank for that! We recommend them so highly and cannot say enough wonderful things about them! To prove the point - we are already talking about when to start our next project with them! read more

I contacted Gene to do a bathroom remodel in my 1940's home. When Gene came to my home to quote us, it was very evident that Gene is not only well versed in home improvement, but also a very sincere person. Through the quoting process and throughout our renovation, Gene had a good understanding of what we wanted in regards to functionality, budget, and design. He unbiasedly answered our questions on choice of material, giving us the pros and cons for each scenario. This was important to me, because any contractor can just say "Yeah we can do that", and then quote up a storm or just do the work without considering if the homeowners understands the implications of their decisions. Gene made sure we knew exactly what we were signing up for, what the risks and what the benefits were for certain materials, and made suggestions to help us to stay within our stated budget. It is obvious in both the quality of his work and his personality that he wants to do right by the homeowner and leave them with a renovation that they love. When it came time to do the work, Gene brought his associate Kevin (who is also very personable and skilled) to help with the job. The two of them were able to demo my bathroom and remove all of the ugly blue tile on the walls and floor within a day. The next day, the plumber came to remove our tub, and then the real fun began. Gene and Kevin had the job done within the week, and during the process they were very respectful of our home, our pets, and our time. They showed up to work every day at 8AM, and left around 3 or 4 PM. I love the finished room, especially the floor tile; it feels like something out of a Spa now.... Gene and Kevin did an amazing job and I will be calling them again to do my next renovation! read more

We found A Happy Home through a simple Google search and we'd like everyone to know just how excellent Gene and his team was to work with. We had them open up a wall separating our kitchen and living room to make the house feel more open and the job was treated with not just your basic care, but A Happy Home went above and beyond to make sure the job was done professionally and quickly. Gene made efforts to save us all the money we could throughout, whether that was suggesting we do the painting ourselves to moving the electrical wires hiding behind the plaster to staying late on the first day to make sure he could get the job done in two days to save us money avoiding a third day of work. The quality of work was professional and excellent. When we walked into our house on the day of completion, we were wowed and without any complaints. Communication was great throughout. He made sure to call with any concerns and did a lot of preliminary back-and-forth via email rather than telephone calls which I preferred. We just couldn't be happier with the work they did and would recommend to anyone in search of any sort of house project (big and small)! read more

We couldn't be happier with the work done by Gene and Kevin from A Happy Home Maintenance Services. From start to finish they were absolutely professional. Gene is a man of his word and does exactly what he says he is going to do. The communication is excellent and he never leaves you hanging. We hired them to move our kitchen door and close off the old opening. It was a difficult job, but they made it look easy. It was, in fact, anything but easy. Dealing with an old home, they ran into some unexpected issues, which required expertise. Gene and Kevin knew exactly how to handle things and kept moving right along. They arrived on time, worked so hard, did an awesome job and cleaned up the area when they were done. They went above and beyond what we had come to expect in the world of contractors and we would highly recommend them. We plan to hire them for other projects and will do so without any apprehension.

We first hired A Happy Home Maintenance Services back in 2014 to get some help with a remodel of a rental house we bought in Colchester. Since then, they have been tops on our list of companies to call when we need additional professional expertise.

I'm happy to recommend them to anyone without reservation - prompt, courteous and knowledgeable craftsmen, fair pricing, and high quality workmanship.

A Happy Home was suggested to us by a local plumber we planned to use. We had never heard of the company, but agreed to having a quote provided. The quote was detailed and we felt comfortable with the terms, so we agreed to have Gene do the work. Consistent with the effort put into the estimate, the same attention to detail was given to our bathroom remodels. Very professional, courteous and responsive to any concerns or questions that arose during the process. Gene has a lot of ideas to make a project a bit more unique and customized, which enhanced our project at no extra cost. Very fair pricing and willing to go the extra mile to satisfy the customer.

It was horrible initially because other contractors messed up the support and caused major molding to occur. JDRC was able to patch it but did recommend replacement. Repainted heatpipe. They sand down the old paint and repainted it. Excellent job with everything here. Kitchen work was cabinet replacements, sink, and countertop replacements. Everything was great. They even replanted the walls afterwards since they wanted everything to look nice and new to match their work. Kitchen window molding was replaced sure to new cabinet sizing. JDRC was flexible and easy to work with. They do honest with and trustworthy. I've seen contractors that cheat on their job, and JDRC did not. I highly recommend them for renovations. This job was done months ago but I haven't had time to write this review. Thanks again!

My wife is very…read morepicky and it was tough to find a company that we felt could not only finish our basement, but also make us comfortable throughout the process. However when we met with Mike at Modern Painting we felt comfortable from the start. Mike made the process so easy and everything he said he would do, he went above and beyond. His company did an outstanding job on our basement. They transformed 1500 sq. feet of empty unfinished space into a beautiful living area, where we now spend the majority of our time. However more importantly, his customer service was superb. There are a lot of companies in the industry that over promise and under deliver....In my opinion, Modern Painting stands above all others in terms of craftsmanship, integrity, expertise, and service. I highly recommend utilizing Modern Painting for any home improvement endeavor. As we continue to do home improvement projects around our house, we no longer have to look for a contractor....Modern Painting is the company we will use from now on.

Mike and his crew did an amazing job with painting our entire house. We had gotten three quotes and…read moreMike took a bit too long to give the quote and we went with another quote. The other painter was extremely flaky and we only had two weeks before moving in to get the house painted. We called Mike the night after closing frantic that out other painter "could no longer do it in the two weeks". Mike came THE NEXT DAY. The quote was higher than others by quite a bit, but it was worth it. They painted the hallways, trim, ceilings, closets, mudroom, bedrooms in a 1700 square feet house in one week and it looked absolutely amazing. I am incredibly impressed with the work of modern and would highly recommend them. I never write yelp reviews but he did such a great job!
