We were extremely pleased with the end result.  The job was finished on time and on budget.  Ed's a good guy that aims to please.  He went to great lengths to ensure the new roof line, windows, siding, and trim matched the original, exactly.  Looking at the house from the outside, you would never know that there had been a room addition.  The sub-contractors were conscientious, pleasant and unobtrusive.  And, they cleaned up after themselves every day.  Yes, there were a few glitches along the way, but Ed was there to smooth them out.  He's easy to talk with, so straightening out any misunderstanding is just a matter of having a rational discussion with him.

Amazing! The workers were pleasant, friendly (even to our cats) and very professional. They cleaned up very well and paid attention to every detail plus more!

What started as a wall paper and wood board removal turned into an remove a wall and open up a stairwell project!  After discovering a compromised 17' joist, an engineer was brought in to provide a repair solution.  That's when I contacted Ed at Better Home Improvements.  The project was planned for two weeks and was done on time and on budget.  All structural work was done in the first 3 days, drywall and finishing on the last 7 days.  The site was cleaned up each night and kept orderly.  Given all the challenges of this being a farmhouse from the 1902 timeframe, they did a great job and I'm very happy with the results.

OUTSTANDING!  We believe Better Home Improvements, who's been in business for 28 years, we feel that the outcome of the project was absolutely outstanding.  As one would expect there were a few glitches along the way which were treated efficiently, professionally, and resolved in a positive and proper manner.  Best of all the project was completed on time and within budget.
