Recent Roof Snow Removal Reviews in Boston
- JS Roofing Inc.Great crew, great craftmenship. I am in the trades and i am very picky, their work is professional.
- MA Design & Construction CoThey did the work promised, and eventually as the temps rose, the ice melted, the snow melted and there was clear, runoff with no further ice dams or water backing up into the house. However, I am not at all certain this is the best method though it is very, very common in New England because it all depends on rising temps as to how fast the ice and snow will melt. Heating cables on the roof and in the gutters would probably work much better and faster, as it can be turned on and off at will or left on all the time at a certain setting. Power steaming is also available, not from this firm but others, and it would melt the ice much, much faster and more effectively but it requires separate machinery to generate the steam, two men to handle the steam hoses, and is more expensive, perhaps $600 per hour? The best approach is to shovel off the snow after each snowfall, put heater cables in the gutters and perhaps 2 feet of the roof above the gutters, and just control when the cables are on or off and for how long. Once installed, it could also be much cheaper than calling a group of able-bodied men to climb onto the roofs and shovel off the snow, crack the ice and spread melting chemicals. Good Luck
- MA Design & Construction CoIt went well- it was a pretty simple job and I was happy with the service. It did cost an additional $60. The work was fine - I was not there but when I came home and the snow was removed, I was very happy with the service.
- MA Design & Construction CoWe hired Marc and his team to repair the extensive ice dam water damage we had during the winter. One of the main reasons we decided to go for this team was because they are super responsive. Pretty much all the emails were responded immediately like within 15 minutes to an hour. Marc and his team was able to work within the budget that set by the insurance company. And gave us a couple of advice on how to make a couple of improvements. The tile guy that he used is skilled. We ran out of wall tiles and was not able to find a match. His tile guy managed to cut the bigger floor tiles and finished the job beautifully. Marc is easy to work with and very flexible. We ended up decide not to finish the floor, he's accommodating through out. The painting job is excellent. The guy who finished the painting job at the last day touched up all the details and we are very grateful we can get our house back to normal in 10 days
- MA Design & Construction CoI was able to get MA Painters out the day after I purchased on Angie's list. A team of four came out and removed snow for 2 hours. They were good on communication, letting me know right away when they could come out and they were on time the next day.
- MA Design & Construction CoWe had massive icicles hanging from our gutters and lots of water ice damming to our bedroom and garage. Although Marc's team was extremely busy, he sent a small crew right away to control the damage until a full crew could come the next day and remove all the snow. Thanks to them, the leakage stopped right away. My husband followed the entire work and was very impressed how careful and professional the team was
- MA Design & Construction CoThe team of 4 arrived and began working immediately to clear ice dams. They were courteous and cleaned up the area once the work had been performed.
- MA Design & Construction CoThe communication was great - they responded quickly every time I emailed or called. They were clear with their pricing and what they were doing, worked hard and we haven't had leaking since!
- MA Design & Construction CoI had been searching for an Angie's Deal for a couple of days for myself and my daughters. We all had water infiltration problems but didn't know who to contact for help. When we spotted the deal for snow and ice dam removal we purchased it right away and got in touch with Raquel. We were dealing with two houses and she was excellent in scheduling us very quickly, keeping in mind that we had ongoing damage occurring to both houses. She sent emails each night keeping me informed about the scheduling which was very reassuring since I was dealing with a company I had never used before. The deal was for $299 for 4 hours of work at each house and I was the one with time to oversee both projects. When they arrived, the crew consisted of 4 men who were all very pleasant and very hard working. Fernando kept me informed about what they were doing and the time constraints. He understood the areas on the roof that were causing the problems and explained what he was doing to address them. In the end I felt confident that it was well worth it to expand the scope of the work a little and to pay the extra amount. I know that this winter's trials are not over yet and that the clean up and repairs still remain to be done. This company does all the work that I'll need down the road and I plan to hire them for this work as well
- MA Design & Construction CoThey were very curteous on the phone and nice and gave me a quick appointment. very responsive. They even offered to do the work for me on the weekend.

"Originally we had hired MA Design to renovate two of our bathrooms, one being a full gut renovation of our Master Bathroom in 2021. We had such a good experience working with MA Design for our Bathroom renovations that we just had them come back to complete two other large scale projects. A full Kitchen refresh as well as a brand new back yard which included new stone patio with propane fire pit, new trex deck with integrated lighting, and a fully screened in porch. This was a large amount of work (in a difficult space as our back yard is only accessible by stairs so all work must be done by hand) and we really weren’t sure on what we could fit in the area. Marc & Raquel walked us through the full design and gave us options to find what worked best for us, and we are thrilled with our results. Would highly recommend for any projects for your home, indoor AND outdoor. We love our transformed house!!

"When our previous contractor opted to retire, our painter recommended Dennis Howes. Since then, Dennis and his team of experienced carpenters have completed several projects for us, most recently replacing the siding and windows on the rear of our house. All of the work was professional, on time, and reasonable priced. Dennis is accessible, and his team is easy to work with. This referral turned out very well for us, and we plan to use Dennis Howes Carpentry for any future home repair needs.
