process. He went over all the options I had and helped me come up with a layout that worked best for me. The software they use for their drawings was way better than the 5 other places I visited. After coming up with a design that made the most sense he setup an appointment to come out to my apartment to meet with my contractor and I. He took all the necessary measurements and then got back to me with a final design and all my pricing options. To my surprise, I was able to get into a very good line of cabinets for a very affordable price. I continued to work with Tony over the next weeks on finalizing all the details (cabinet style, hardware, kitchen design, lighting design, pretty much everything). Tony was very patient and had great suggestions. Most importantly, Tony was very professional and had great communication skills. He would always reply to my emails within a couple hours or call me back right away. This was very important to me because I had many questions. My cabinets were delivered on time and look great. It seems like Prestige only works with quality manufactures. I would highly recommend Prestige Kitchen & Bath and Tony to anyone looking for cabinets for their kitchen. The quality of the products, customer service and designs were far superior to all the other places I went to and all for a better price! Feel free to message me if you want any more details.

The one room we do get the most positive comments on is a powder room featuring 2 matte black walls, 2 antique white walls, Asian touches, white paper globe overhead light, pale green rug on white tile/dark grout floor. She immediately suggested it be painted a translucent white, etc. and felt the room did not work at all. For most of our visitors it is often singled out as having a great look. Our house is traditional with unique personal touches, but that bathroom is the room most commented on all the time. I did talk too much about what we would do if renovating, and should have just kept her on arrangement suggestions alone, so part of the blame is mine for talking and not just listening to her. We do enjoy the features of this unit - very high ceilings, crown moldings, old inside shutters, etc. - and would remove a lot of belongings if we were "staging," but for the time being we are comfortable living with what we have, and were only interested in advice in setting things up in the most advantageous manner. Tracy is knowledgeable and very personable, but I think our aesthetic values are at odds so that the outcome was less than I had hoped for.

AVOID THIS COMPANY! They did a terrible job. It was haphazard and completely inadequate, especially considering that the house was completely empty and I'd paid for 4hrs of cleaning. What little they did clean was probably accomplished in about a half hour. The service stated that it included...

Would definitely work with him again, can highly recommend."

Medium size Electrical Company based out of Metrowest Area. Currently have 9 licensed employees. Always free estimates. All pricing is based on specific work.
"The installation went quickly and easily for us, and the level 2 charger is just where we need it. I am grateful that I can park, get charging, and be in the house with a cup of tea within a few short minutes. It is so convenient, and the car charges quickly. The VMA installers were so helpful in getting me started once the installation was finished. We have had VMA do quite a few household projects for us, and everything about them is excellent, from scheduling, to the actual work, and to billing. Highly recommend!"

"Before installing a mini-split, the sales person told me that I'd need to cut down an interior shelf to a specific height. I paid a handyman $400 to do exactly what the sales person instructed. Later on, N.E.T.R. came and did the installation; however, AFTER the installation, a technician told me that they hadn't accounted for the vent opening and closing and that the shelf would need to be further cut down. As you can imagine, this type of service is rather ridiculous. If they knew that the shelf would need further cutting, they should have NOT installed the unit. I have called N.E.T.R. six (6) times in three weeks, and no one has called me back about this issue. After paying for the unit and for a handyman, it's ridiculous that I have AC that is compromised because no one with the company thought to properly measure the space so that the work by the handyman could be done once. At this point, I'd like for N.E.T.R. to take care of this for me."

On average, the cost to install a light fixture is about $550, ranging from about $160 to $950, depending on the number of lights and the type of light bulbs and fixtures. You should consider other cost factors like your home’s location, electrical and drywall work required to install the fixture, and removal of old fixtures when creating a budget for this project. Keep in mind that replacing a light fixture typically costs less than installing one for the first time.
You should hire a licensed electrician who is insured to perform any electrical work on your home, including lighting installation. States have different requirements for licensing and certifying electricians, so use Angi’s state licensing tool to review local guidelines.
Here are a few questions to ask electricians before hiring:
How many years of electrical experience do you have?
Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?
Do you work with subcontractors?
Do you provide a guarantee or warranty on your work?
What is the timeline for completion?
How do you handle change orders?
Can you provide at least three customer references?
Several types of light fixtures are available, each requiring different installation techniques. Keep in mind that you’ll need to hire a lighting specialist to install the majority of these fixture types.
Here are some of the most common light fixture options:
Ceiling-mounted fixtures: $90–$230
Pendant lights: $95–$250
Chandeliers: $300–$2,000
Track lighting: $100–$250
Wall-mounted lights: $90–$250
Fluorescent lights: $85–$220
Light bars: $330–$440
