Making a substantial upgrade investment in your home requires a lot of work, even before the…read morerenovation begins. My wife and I wanted to replace our home's failing, outdated windows for years and we finally decided to move forward with such a daunting project. Our old windows were drafty, some could barely be opened, and our energy bills were ridiculous. I spent weeks researching well-known national installers down to local companies. It was then that I came across Kubala Home Improvement. As I explored their website, I was impressed by their awards and testimonials. I dug a little deeper and could not find a single review on any business review website in which they did not receive five-stars. I called and set up an appointment with a sales representative (this was the first of many companies with which we were scheduled to meet). My wife and I met with Ben Griffin at our home, and it quickly became obvious that our windows were much worse off than we thought (they were at least 40 years old and had no R-Value). Ben is very affable, and he carefully explained how Kubala's windows are constructed (in the U.S., a huge plus) and every aspect of the replacement process. It quickly became obvious Ben knows his stuff and he was gracious in answering all our questions (there's a lot of information to process). We signed a contract to replace all 15 windows on the spot, without hesitation, and canceled the rest of our appointments. Six weeks later, Serge and his team completed the installation in a single day. They worked quickly, were careful to protect our furnishings, and they simply never stopped moving. They were so quiet that several times my wife and I thought they left to take a break! At the end of the day, I swear they left the house cleaner than they found it. We also appreciated the fact that the installers are Kubala employees, not sub-contractors. That made us even more comfortable in our decision. From meeting Ben, to watching Serge and his crew, to talking with Office Administrator Melissa Russell, everyone at Kubala was fantastic to work with. I can see why they're so highly rated and I absolutely would recommend them to anyone.

Due to the recent wind storm and incorrect installation of the roof by the original contractor,…read morePrime Painting of Chicopee, our home was left vulnerable to the upcoming winter elements due to shingle issues. The latest damage occurred this past Friday/Saturday (02/03/23 - 02/04/23). I live near Dana Park and Eugene, owner of Pioneer Valley Handyman, happened to be visiting the afternoon of 02/07/2023 with his daughter. I was in my yard and asked for a minute of his time. He took a look at the roof and gave me a price and repair date of the following afternoon. He arrived on 02/08/2023 as promised, completed the work promptly and professionally, and I feel much better going forward. I highly recommend Eugene Quinlan as a general repairman. I wish all businesses operated like Pioneer Valley Handyman. SIncerely, Brian:)

After we agreed on a price, things changed once he arrived. He added work without gaining approval first. In fact, we had told him in writing that the tenant might ask for more work to be done, but we were not authorizing it. He did it anyway and charged us. He was also not transparent about disposal fees until he was already on site and there wasn't much we could do about it. Not only did he lack transparency, but his overall professionalism was lacking. We had to ask, multiple times for an invoice for our records. The invoice terms stated Net 30 but he began harassing us to pay the invoice via text and email within hours of sending the invoice.

We all know that a company will have a mark up, but I felt this was extreme. I called them to question the double mark up the labor. was told that it was a fair price, that's how the business works and I saw something I wasn't supposed to see. And the company did nothing to satisfy my complaint. word of advice if you deal with this company, ask for a break down of the quote before hand, and do yourself a favor and get multiple quotes! I went with this company because I had good results with them when they were still Raynor, but seems since they were bought out, customer satisfaction isn't their top priority! I gave the company a chance to make it right before writing this review and never heard back from them.

Chose windows with sales rep who gave us contact info of 3 contractors. Mentioned she found them…read moreby seeing their trucks around town etc. At no point did she ever offer us an "installed by Pella Quote". Installation began mid Nov. At one point I heard a circular saw, they were trimming headers & sills because the windows were too big for the rough openings. I found out they were cutting the rough openings bc most windows were too big. The foreman and I determined at one point when they were trying to put in the upstairs bath it belonged in the downstairs bath. Turns out all the windows were in the wrong holes. And then we found one of the windows was not even ours. They had to pull out all the windows & put them in the right holes. It was at this time I met with the contractor & sales & we noticed several warranty issues. The living room, 2 of the 4 window latches were loose because the screws were stripped. Sales took pictures & was supposed to investigate. We also noted the felt insulation was mangled on the same window & a sash in the bedroom had a gouge in it & a scratch on frame of 1 window. I know all the installation issues happened due to the installation crew I chose but this was the crew I was referred to by their rep while never being offered a quote from Pella which would have included labor if future issue were to arise. Late Nov, I call to see what is going on with the latches noted a month before. She said she sent the info to service dept & she could not look up the info or ticket number on it bc they didn't allow her to use the computer anymore. I got the phone # to service & called them, the manager was not available. I called next day & they were closed. 3rd day I talked to Manager, as he look up my case he found it & said the ticket for the latches was just opened two days prior by the store. So, Sales realized they never did do anything about it. Had they done it in the beginning the replacement window would have been here with the correct window for the bathroom & I could have had it swapped out by the contractor while he was here. Servic scheduled a tech to come look at the latches. 2 weeks later, tech got here he said it was a manufacturing defect & said he could do a temp fix by putting in a wood dowel in the hole. Said it might/might not last & I had the option to swap out the fixed panel of the 3 panel assembly . A permanent fix is better than a jury-rig & opted for that. He opened a ticket. About a month went by & I reached out to Service to see what was going on & he said he was waiting for an answer from someone as to fix. So, I waited yet another month & called & he said that he was sending out 2 technicians to do the repair & he would have them bring the sash & paint & felt with them. The 2 technicians arrived & I asked about the plan, & they said "huh?". The agreed they were clueless as to why 2 techs had been dispatched since they had no plan. They came in & inspected the front window again. Both agreed the latch issues were a manufacturing defect & took a bunch of pictures again. At this point they tell me the center stationary window is not removeable & the whole unit would need to be replaced but it was covered parts & labor so not to worry. After 2 weeks, service said the new unit was to arrive on 4/22 & I would need to be here to sign for it. I replied: since it was covered parts & labor, that it would be nice to schedule his guys to put it in the day it arrived. He replied: only removeable parts & simple repairs are covered by that warranty & this situation was therefore not covered. He went on to say that if I got a quote, they would submit it to Pella for consideration & that at times they make full or partial coverage. I requested for Pella to do the reinstall so that I could be sure it got done right but they refused do the reinstallation. I got a quote & sent it, it was 450.00, he submitted it. I got an email saying that Pella had agreed to 1/2 the cost. I still felt that due to all the issue I've had with this project I wanted to pursue the full reimbursement so I emailed Servce as such on 4/10 but he did not respond. I called Pella customer service & shared this story. She put me on hold while she discussed with her manager & called Servic to discuss. She returned she said that Pella Corporate will only ever cover 50% & that the franchisee would have to cover the other 50% at their discretion. Yet service led me She said Service was going to call me but they never did. So, what I see from my perspective is that I have done absolutely nothing wrong but am being stuck with 1/2 the bill to remove & replace a unit at my expense that arrived defective. I contacted socialmedia@pella.com 2X before posting this review to avoid having to put yet another 1 star review. They never responded. Pella of Boylston & Pella of Springfield I discovered are both owned by same person and share the same email address to respond to reveiws

Unethical behavior of the staff from sales to installation supported by crude manager. Gave them…read more20k business. They pushed prices after negotiations, got the contract signed in cheeky manner with higher amount than what was agreed with the sales staff and approved by MassSave. No change order produced -- sent a letter stating that I should get the inspection from the Town whereas they were the contractor and Pella holds responsibility for any liability as per Mass Law and get their work cleared from the Town. Finally, the letterhead sent by installation department had a phone number 413-739-9239 which has already been disconnected. Highly unprofessional culture deeply rooted in lower level sales staff, installation staff and management. Here is the kicker -- installation team arrived at 8 am on the day of installation without informing the timing (despite a reminder I sent and asked for the time to kickoff) that disturbed the tenants and finally left black nails bare on the window frames. I will strongly recommend to find another vendor who has ok product but good service rather than going for good product and slimy staff to deal with. I am considering a legal action and report to BBB.
