Passed a Harbor Homes work site today... what a mess on the lawn. After my past experience with Harbor Homes and all the negative postings I can't fathom why anyone would use then for the smallest job. In my case I still find problems with their work. I had to initiate a formal hearing brought against Harbor Homes with MA State Board of Licensing. The licensing board found unsatisfactory business practices and assessed fines against them. I feel for the poor people using them. read more

We have had nothing but problems with Harbor Homes. We did a major renovation and was told by the president it would take four months then the son In law came in and said six months which was more realistic. Two years to the day we are still not done and continually find problems. We have finally decided to bring a home inspector in to go through the house with a fine tooth comb to try and get all of the issues resolved which will never get done by hh. Just a few problems to mention; crooked moldings, plumbing and electrical issues, multiple Floods, tiling issues, splitting of floors and woodwork. Horrible horrible craftsmanship. Bottom line there was no supervision at all. Never the same subs. Absolutely no pride taken in their work. Harbor homes put a wooden tent sign on our yard for advertising. Somehow it fell over and sat in the mud for over six months. That says it all. We have started a support group for irate hh customers who have all had the same experiences with these people. Never have we seen such dishonest, immoral, disrespectful and unprofessional people. None of us can figure out how they stay in business. Do not use them!!!!! Highly dishonest, but worse, horrible builders!!! read more

Craftsmanship done by their subs was excellent ! The delivery of the work was not ! They are good at closing the deal but not at delivering on a timeline ! Would not recommend ! read more

Harbor Homes did my rebuild of my garage. They were great. Pat is especially great to work with. She is very accommodating to all my requests. The garage came out great and Pat was very responsive to all my requests. When there was a problem, she personally took the time to come over and address it to my satisfaction. I would hire harbor homes again for my next project. read more

In the last two months, Harbor Homes seems to have revamped their business and has made good on all the punch-list items that were left. They seem to be making customers happy a priority. I always thought that their workmanship was good. read more

This weekend marks the 4th anniversary of hiring Harbor Homes to renovate my home. I am still waiting for Harbor Homes to finish tiling and grouting the backsplash in the kitchen, finish the guest bathroom renovation, install the glass shower door, install the ceiling fan on the porch, finish the vinyl flooring on the porch, fix the motion detector lights, replace the split vinyl flooring in the kitchen and family room and repair the leak in the basement ceiling. This was an excruciating renovation that has still not been finished despite multiple promises to make good on the promised - and paid for - renovations. In August, 2018, I gave a check to the president of Harbor Homes to purchase items necessary to finish the renovation. She promised to buy a mini split, industrial dehumidifier, bar sink with faucet, and granite countertop for the wet bar in the basement and install the vented cast iron gas stove for the porch. She said if I made the final payment, they could have the unfinished work completed by Labor Day. Unfortunately, I believed her. She cashed the check that day and Harbor Homes did not return to install anything or complete the unfinished work. Finally, in October, 2018, I was told that everything was ready to be installed. However, no one showed up. I finally called the reputable local companies Harbor Homes said they had ordered the items from. Both companies said they had no record of Harbor Homes ordering any items for my renovation. I then called the direct vent cast iron gas stove company asking when the stove bought by Harbor Homes in early 2018 was going to be delivered. The company had no record of Harbor Homes purchasing the stove for my home. When I confronted the president of Harbor Homes about these matters, she credited my account for the mini split, dehumidifier, and bar refrigerator. However, she credited me $1200 for the original $3500 charge for the wet bar. She said she paid for the 2 stock cabinets installed which cost approximately $1100. I had to purchase the granite counter top and the bar sink. She then credited me $1500 for the cast iron stove which she had charged me $2100. The outdoor shower I paid to have installed never worked, despite multiple attempts by Harbor Homes to remedy it. I finally called a local reputable plumber to fix the shower ($455.95). He found the problem - the plumbing in the basement had been installed incorrectly and had to be completely redone. The next call to the plumber was when I turned the thermostat on, I had no heat. After extensive troubleshooting, they found that the newly installed thermostat by Harbor Homes was never connected to the boiler. The next call was when the PVC plumbing for the basement bathroom exploded, flooding the basement. When I had an energy audit done for my home, they found that the gas stove was no longer vented to the outside, the bathrooms were not ventilated and there was no insulation above the renovated enclosed porch - although the project manager said he had personally inspected the crawl space and it was properly insulated. When I finally said I had retained an attorney did Harbor Homes respond to my complaints. I met with the president, general contractor and an employee of the company in December, 2018. The president admitted they had not followed through on the paid for renovations and promised they could have the work finished by the end of January. I am still waiting... That same day, the president had a "final bill" hand delivered by a family member. The team left before I opened the bill. When I reviewed the "final bill", I found fraudulent added charges. including not crediting me correctly for a deposit made to my account. Somehow, this bill said I still owed money to Harbor Homes although I had overpaid this company. I have kept every text and voice mail from the president and general contractor of Harbor Homes. When examined, there are multiple fabrications about ordered material, delivery and installation of items. Texts promising scheduled work schedules to complete the renovation never materialized. Do NOT do business with this company. I have never had such an unpleasant and deceiving dealing with a company before. The only reason I am giving this company 1 star is they could cash my checks faster than any other company I have done business with. It is really the only thing they excelled at. read more

After making the decision to retire to the Cape, we found a great lot. Next, we needed to find a builder. Two recommendations sent us to Harbor Homes Construction and Renovation. We met with Pat and decided to go with her. It was a great decision. This was a long distance build. She went out of her way to accommodate us. She made it easier than we thought. Thanks Pat, we love our home. Ted read more

This is the WORST contractor in the world. They were supposed to do two projects in 2 weeks and after mid summer when we needed the bathroom (they ripped it out and then proceeded to do nothing 2 months later) they ended up working overtime on weekends when we had guests over and didn't even finish one of the two projects and now we are left with an unfinished bathroom and they requested MORE money. I am telling you DO NOT use this contractor. We ended up getting the second project (which they didn't do) at a much better price and with people that did it in two weeks and it looks great. You will regret using these people...they screw people over (also same goes with friends that have used them in the past) read more

Great bunch of people to work with. Very helpful and we worked as a family. Love these guys

Do Not Use Harbor Homes if you ever need them to follow up on "warranted work" or to come back to your property. Not only did I have to hire other contractors to finish their work less than a month after my renovation was complete, but now the basement they put in has been leaking for over a year and the wall (pipe) is under warranty. I have sent emails but they can't be bothered to respond to the emails (two weeks of emails) nor can they find the time to respond to my husband's texts. I am sorry to say I can't recommend them anymore because of these issues. read more

Since June 23, there have been 101 calendar days and 72 work days with workers on the property only on 19 days. It appears Harbor Homes is more likely to respond promptly to a subpoena than a contract or their assurances. It would be easier for all involved if they honored their contract, completed the work they were paid to complete and moved on to other projects but it seems apparent they have no intention of doing so. Our May review is unchanged. Things did not get better when we returned to Cape Cod for the summer to oversee the project in person with hopes that Harbor Homes would tell the truth, honor their contract, respond to inquiries and show up for the job although it did not turn out that way. Owner Pat Sciuto (Massachusetts contractor license no. CSFA-080102) and realtor license no. 0009070217) seems to have taken the money and run. She had her son-in-law/project manager Jim Manning convince us that he was on top of the situation and that it would improve but, it appears, the apple didn't fall far from the in-law's tree. Manning promised a lot, did not deliver and, like his mother-in-law, failed to show up when he promised, failed to have workers show up when promised and failed to return phone calls or texts 80-90% of the time. While we intend to update our experience until the situation is resolved one way or the other, we would encourage readers to learn from our experience and look elsewhere. read more

It's important potential homeowners know about these guys. The subs do excellent work, but Pat and Jimmy are completely unreliable. We started building our home more than 3 years ago in Buzzards Bay and they are still not finished. They disappear for months at a time and continue to ask for money before the job is complete. Beware of this operation, they will promise to have your home done in 9 months but they will never finish. read more

Just did a major home remodel with Harbor Homes. Their workmanship was fantastic and the only real glitches or with timing and them taking longer then I expected and that they committed to. Over although very happy with the company the workers and the finished product read more

The best home building company I have ever worked with they did an amazing job on our new home highly recommend this company

Harbor Homes recently completed a major addition to our home and we couldn't be more pleased. The job included excavation for a full basement, the construction of a 2-story addition, a new custom kitchen, a new master bath and completely expanded and remodeled family room. It involved every trade, had numerous custom details and was intimately integrated with our existing home. They did a great job managing the process and they were respectful of our home the entire time. Moreover, the quality of their work was exceptional and their ability to resolve unforeseen problems in the field was beyond expectation. We have built or renovated 6 homes since we've been married and I have managed countless construction projects at work. We are thrilled with the end result as are our friends and neighbors. Harbor Homes was great to work with, did a superb job and we would absolutely recommend them to others. read more

We contracted HH for a major reno that is just finishing in East Falmouth. I'm not a flipper, but this is my sixth major remodel. I can not be happier with my experience, more importantly, my wife (a scrupulously detailed attorney) is equally delighted. The GC and the subs have been honest, timely, clean and thorough. From design to execution, costs have been reasonable. The GC returns my calls and texts in a timely manner and is respectful of my on site time and possessions. He simply solves problems efficiently. When I discovered 2 critical framing errors, he fixed them quickly and without fanfare. The subs are true pros and when I walk through, they are polite and communicative as well, answering all my lay man's questions to my satisfaction. As the job is finishing up, the fit and final finishes exceed my expectations. We look forward to moving back in. If I get to do a seventh reno, HH will be the first call I make. Finestkind! read more

I am now on my second complete home renovation with Harbor Homes. My experience has been excellent. Great craftsmanship, great people and a fair price. I would not use anyone else read more

Harbor Homes was hired for a renovation. Ultimately our project came out looking as we envisioned. Most of the sub contractors used were professional, courteous and knowledgeable. The majority of sub contractors came on time and worked hard to get their job done properly and efficiently. Unfortunately, the same can not be said for the management of Harbor Homes. The project manager vacillated between being professional and combative. When his unprofessional behavior was brought to the owner's attention, she did not seem at all surprised. If hiring HH it would be very important to be as specific as possible when writing the initial contract, be sure to include clauses to protect yourself against unforeseen costs, track payments made very carefully, be sure you are not being charged twice for the same portion of the project and do all of your own research. Also, make payments only as agreed upon in the initial contract and not early or in good faith. If not for the irresponsible and unprofessional behavior of the management team, this project would have received a much higher rating. read more

This company does not back up their work. I had them rebuild a a distressed home I bought and they hired sub contractors that that they pay low money too . So that means poor quality work. I have had some problems and they have blown me off. Latest issue is my bathroom sink is leaking which ruined the Bath room Vanity. Their response was call the plumber it's his responsibility!! Well Harbor homes hired that plumber . I had complaints about this plumber from the of his start of work. They would not replace him .They will not answer calls or fix the issue. They talk a good game to get you to sign on but string you along the whole time. One of my family members had them do her kitchen which is small. Took them 6 months to complete it and multiple calls to tie up loose ends. When it came to doing further work she found someone else and had no problems. Do not use this company. They are not kind people. They will treat you like you have a problem when comforted about their work. I plan on taking further action as other client's in Falmouth have had the same experience with Harbor homes. read more

Recently during a hurricane several roof shingles blew off my house exposing a potentially unprotected area for leakage. Upon contacting Harbor homes they were at my house the next morning inspecting my roof and then had it fixed by noon time. They responded quickly and their service was professional. We anticipate using them for future projects. The quality of their work was outstanding. read more
