Its not like anyone there was busy, except for maybe the juicy gossip they were enjoying.

We hired them to paint the exterioir…read moreof our 1900s farm house, and from giving us an accurate estimate, sending a color expert, scraping and sanding LOTs of layers of chipped paint to replacing some worn out wood siding, they truly do it all. He checked in daily on his team, and it was during a hot stretch, providing them water and ensuring the job was getting done as planned (it was!). They did a tremendous job and it shows - several of our friends and neighbors commented on the team's "fussiness" (as in meticulousness) and how beautiful the house looks now. The only thing, and out of his control and impacts all labor that relies on Mother Nature, was the initial timeline. With this past extra rainy spring in New England, the work started a month behind but he assured us he'd get the job done this season/before winter and he and his team delivered! We are so happy with our cheery old house now, and looking forward to them completing our barn next. Would highly recommend them!

I signed a contract in May 2011 with SCH Painters to paint my residence (exterior). A deposit…read more($2250) was provided as required per the estimate. I was quoted a start date of 4-6 weeks. As of 13 Oct 2011, the home has not been painted nor any work done to this end. I have inquired (email, voice mail) on at least eight occasions when this work would begin and my messages have been mostly ignored. I have been provided with four separate misleading/false start dates by Mr. Scott Hurd or his associate (Kim). The latest estimate from Mr. Hurd was received the week of 03 Oct 2011 when he informed me that he would begin no later than 08-09 October 2011. As of 10 Oct, the work has not been initiated and I informed SCH Painters that unless they could begin by 12 Oct I wanted a full and immediate refund of my deposit. A certified letter was also sent to their business address formally affirming this request. No refund or acknowledgment has been received as of 14 Oct 2011. Their lack of responsiveness is unprofessional and poor business etiquette. A complaint was filed with the MA state attorney general and they too were unable to solicit a response from Mr. Hurd. Likewise, a call from my attorney was never returned. I eventually contacted the local police department and they called SCH Painters to investigate the complaint and the money refunded.

I've only been using this library for the past six months, and I really wish I had started sooner…read more The space is always clean and well-kept, and I spend most of my time with my kids in the children's section on the ground floor. They have a wonderful selection of books for all ages, and I was pleasantly surprised to learn they also lend out audiobooks and video games. My 4-year-old daughter loved borrowing the Bluey game for our Switch--it was a great way for her to try it without us having to buy it. The staff is very friendly, especially in the children's area. They're polite, engaging, and always helpful. One unique feature is the sarcophagus with "Mr. Bones," the friendly neighborhood skeleton--my son's absolute favorite part of the library. He also enjoys the play area, which has a train table and puzzles. There are computers available for kids to play games or do homework, and plenty of comfortable reading spaces for everyone. If I had one wish, it would be for more kids' activities like story times or reading groups on Saturdays, since I work during the week. Still, I know this is not uncommon these days. Overall, this library is a wonderful place to spark a love of reading and play for kids, or to enjoy as an adult if you're looking for a comfortable, quiet space.

The enrollment process for a library card is very quick and easy. It is three stories with lots of books, movies, tables/chairs, computers, etc. I primarily get ebooks through Libby on my Kindle, which has been an awesome resource; occasionally I will go in and get a hard-copy though and they have a lot to offer. They are very generous with the rental time and renewals and communicate effectively. I really enjoy that they have both the noble and libby app too - this makes things really easy. Highly recommend!
