I am so grateful to Brian for stopping by last minute to fix my dryer vent as well as help me…read moreretrieve my toolkit that fell behind the dryer. The company I had used previously forgot my appointment twice in a row, didn't bother to give me an exact time they would be stopping by, and also made an off-putting comment to me over the phone so to say I was irked was an understatement and generally I am really nice with everyone I meet. It takes a lot to piss me off. I googled repair services and home maintenance and luckily PHB popped up. They were conveniently located in Saint Albans and answered the phone promptly. I told them my problem and they were able to come within the hour. I felt so grateful. He also did not overcharge me, though I made sure to tip him extra for a job well done, excellent customer service, and common courtesy. I don't have any photos to share, but I hope this review helps him to attract more business because he deserves it. He is a great handy/repair man. It felt like a godsend.

I was very disappointed in the exterior staining project 360 Painting did for me. The power washer…read moreshowed up without any hoses. I had to retrieve hoses so he could perform the work. They didn't protect the windows from the stain. I pointed this out and they returned to clean the windows. There are still smudges on the glass that they weren't able to remove. My front steps have multiple stain marks on them now. I asked Jody to fix the problem. He said he would be over during the week of 8/4 to correct it. I haven't seen or heard from him since. There are multiple areas on the siding with incomplete coverage as shown below. The quality of the work was far below what I expected based on the project cost.

Jody and the 360 Degree Painting of the Green Mountains Team were wonderful to work with. Their…read moreworkmanship was excellent and the project was completed on time and on budget. Our project included a nearly complete painting of the interior of our home including ceilings, fresh drywall, old plaster and trim. Jody and his team went above and beyond, helping with color recommendations, sourcing and installing new trim that needed to be replaced and even staining new wood trim to ensure the updates to the room matched the history that we were keeping. Most of all though, we appreciated Jody and the team's flexibility. As this was part of a broader remodel, other projects on the house had some twists and turns. Throughout, Jody and the team were consultative, flexible and understanding. Highly recommend!

We hired Bannister's in 2012 to put on siding and a roof. A couple of years later we noticed that…read morethe facia and soffits were starting to separate and our power lines were attached We contacted Bannisters repeatedly and told that they would stop by and take care of it. They never showed up. More contacts, no response. They finally showed up to assess the damage, 8 years later and told us the damage was caused by water and they would fix it. In contacting them to find out when they would show up to do the repairs we were told they were swamped and would get to us when they could, They never came back. Then covid hit. I reached out to them again this spring and received no response at all, so I can only assume they will not make the repairs. We assume that the damage was caused from not being sealed properly. 9 years later we ended up with a house that is falling apart along with brand new windows molding and birds making their home in the holes. So even though they claim to operate with integrity and honesty, beware, as I should of! And by the way, I do not live n California, I live in Burlington, Vt.

From start to finish we found them courteous, constructive and very professional. Our job was complex and was done in two phases so we worked with two crews.

The results are beautiful--our opinion and everyone who knows or visits our home. Simply said, they are masters at metal roofing. We are very satisfied with the process and the results.

He explained everything clearly, and gave us his recommendations for a new system. The installation of 3 indoor units and the 1 outdoor unit will take 2 days. Derek happened to be at the St. Albans office when I went there to pay the deposit for the new system. He showed me a detailed diagram of the system which was superimposed on photos of the house. I am impressed with how he designed the system. For example, the line to my office unit will be placed underneath the rain gutter to make it less visible, and its condensate discharge will be positioned to drain onto the ground, not on the back deck. I am looking forward to working with Derek and his team as they install our new mini split system. I will say that the new system is expensive. But the expense is worth it for a variety of reasons: 1. COMFORT: The system will control the heat and humidity during warm spells. We will sleep better at night. I will not have to work in a stifling office or move to the cool, dehumidfied basement during a heatwave. One large unit will cool the living room, dining area, and kitchen, making the first floor comfortable. 2. VERSATILITY: In addition to COOLING, these units can be used to dehumidify only, as a fan only, and for HEATING. This means we can use these units during the heating system to help lower the amount of propane that we use as our primary source of heat. 3. VALUE: The system will increase the property value of our home. Stay tuned for a post installation review.
