Every project starts with a $50 on-site property assessment. Roofing, siding, windows, kitchens, full guts. 825+ projects across New London County since 2018.
The usual way is three different guys who all blame each other when something goes wrong. We do the whole outside, the whole inside, and everything down to the studs, so there's one number to call and one person accountable when your roofer and your siding guy need to agree on where the water goes.
Roll-offs for renovation debris, roof tear-offs, garage cleanouts, and everything else you don't want sitting in your driveway for a month. Dropped where you want it, picked up when you're done. Same county, same phone number, no broker in the middle.
Yours would go on here next.
No mystery and no chasing anybody down. Four steps, and you always know which one you're standing in.
Step three costs you nothing and you keep it either way. That's the whole risk.
Start With Step OneMost of the crew served first. In a county built around the base, that isn't a marketing line, it's just who we hire. 825 projects since 2018, plenty of them full gut renovations. Matt is an accredited investor who builds for private investors and condo associations as often as homeowners, so the work gets done to the standard a lender signs off on, not the standard nobody checks.
Nobody enjoys the part where you have to pull answers out of a contractor. So here they are up front, including the ones that are awkward to ask.
It depends on things nobody can see from the driveway. Two kitchens the same size can land three times apart depending on what's behind the wall, whether the layout moves, and what you pick for cabinets and counters.
Anyone who gives you a number over the phone is guessing. That guess is exactly how people end up with a change order they didn't budget for. So every project starts with a $50 on-site property assessment. We walk the house, and you get a real written number for it. Yours to keep either way.
Because a real assessment is real work. Someone who knows construction walks the property, measures, looks at what the project is actually sitting on, and builds a written number off what's there. That's a different thing than a salesperson with a clipboard and a ballpark.
Assessments are held on Tuesdays, and there are only so many spots in a day. The fee keeps those spots for homeowners who are serious about the work, which is also why you get our full attention when it's your turn.
Rough windows once we start, so you can plan your life around it:
Your written quote gives the real window for your job, and you get a start date you can plan around, not a vague "sometime this spring."
Yes. Connecticut Home Improvement Contractor registration HIC.0651499, and $2,000,000 in liability insurance. Ask for proof and you'll have it before anyone sets foot on your property.
You should ask every contractor that question, and you should be suspicious of any of them who gets weird about answering it.
Yes, on the jobs that need them. Roofs, structural changes, and anything that moves plumbing or electrical usually need a permit from your town. We pull it and we schedule the inspection.
You don't chase your building department, and the work gets signed off properly. That last part matters more than people think, right up until the day they try to sell.
Both. One bathroom, a few windows, a roof, a single room. We'd rather do a small job well and be the ones you call for the big one in two years than turn you away because this one wasn't big enough.
No. If we're doing the job, debris and hauling are already in the quote. You don't get billed separately for cleanup and you don't have a container in your driveway longer than the work takes.
The rental is for the other situation: you're doing the work yourself, or clearing out a garage or a basement, and you just need the container. That's a separate thing you can book on its own.
New London County, roughly a thirty mile radius out of Gales Ferry. Groton, Mystic, Norwich, Waterford, New London, Ledyard, Stonington, East Lyme, Montville, Old Lyme, Preston, and everything in between.
If you're sitting just outside that, ask anyway. The answer is usually yes.
One on-site assessment, one written quote, and it's yours to keep whether you hire us or not. Take it to another contractor and compare it. Sit on it until spring. For $50 you finally stop guessing what it costs.
Assessments run Tuesdays only, so spots are limited. Roofs, siding, and windows book out first.
We work a thirty mile circle out of Gales Ferry, and that's on purpose. We're not driving two hours to a job we'll never see again. If something needs looking at in a year we're twenty minutes out, and we're going to run into you at the hardware store either way.
Sitting just outside the line? Ask anyway. The answer is usually yes.
