"It went very well. The work looks great, the work space was clean when done and, most importantly, I haven't had any issues with the electrical install. George did a great job and I'd absolutely work with him again."

"Andrew completed the project on time as scheduled and did a great job installing our driveway lights. Andrew was also very helpful troubleshooting a smaller job not initially scheduled but offered to look into it, great effort also. We are very pleased with his work and will rehire him if needed."

"Everything turned out fine. When it first arrived, it was damaged in the shipping. It took them quite a while to get something back to us, or even to call me back when I wrote to them. But then, once they got the ball rolling, it went very quickly. It took them probably about a month to even get back to me. The price was very good. Once somebody actually did speak with me, they were very responsive. They were pretty professional when I spoke to them. I just think that they were light on manpower."

"This is the proverbial "straw that broke the camel's back" which will result in me ending my Angie's List subscription. I am sick of buying coupons and wasting my money. I have many expired coupons because what I wanted done isn't covered, or the contractor is too hard to get in touch with, etc,  In this case I thought I'd contact the vendor before buying the coupon.
My neighbor and I share a beautiful 700 sq ft deck in the beautiful South End of Boston. I take a lot of pride in the deck and have put a lot of money into it including the materials we used to build it, sound system, furniture, urban landscaper, etc. I have  a small unit and it is nice that I can do all of my entertaining in the nice weather on the roof. The deck was built by DiPerro Construction who I reviewed on here and I recommend them. 
Lighting has always been a challenge on the roof. My neighbor put up those Christmas led lights on the railing and I really tried to like them, although they were out of place in contrast to the quality of everything else on the roof. There is a very high end roof deck diagonal to us and I liked the uniformity of their white lights --- a much cleaner more professional look, and I decided that is what i wanted. My cousin was visiting and told me those were led rope lights. 
I searched Angie's list for a lighting specialist and found this company. They had a $1000 offer and I thought that was a reasonable price to pay to get adequate professional lighting on my deck that would look nice like my neighbor. Instead of purchasing the coupon, I decided to do the consult first so I didn't waste $1000 like the hundreds I have wasted on other non-used coupons.
When George arrived, he was punctual and nice as described. I told him what I was looking for and we decided that what I wanted was led rope lighting on the railing and led tape lighting on the perimeter. The rope lighting would look like what my neighbor has (nice and white). George said our deck was too big to just use that lighting and we agreed the perimeter lighting would be necessary. 
I asked George if I could get this covered with the $1000 coupon. He told me that coupon was for quick, generic jobs. Typical Angie's list bait and switch, which should have stopped me from agreeing to go forward. 
The quote for the job came to $4200 which was sticker shock. Much steeper than I had wanted, but I convinced myself that it would be my last major expense on the roof and George was a nice guy who seemed honest and sincere and it seemed like he knew my penchant for perfectionism and so splurging would give the roof that "over the top" effect that I like. 
WRONG. The lights were installed on Thursday. The railing lights are yellow !!! They look nothing like the white lights of my neighbor. The perimeter lights are a beautiful led light as expected and are very nice.. So we have yellow on the railing and white below which looks hideous and embarrassing. George said he didn't know why that could have happened since he ordered them from the same vendor. My neighbor and I agreed that it looked tacky. The railing lights don't seem to be adding much light to the deck anyway. I also can't get them to dim or shut off, which I think is a waste of electricity and rude to the neighbors. 
George said he expected my reaction and asked what I wanted to do. Using the led tape lights for the railing would put the project up around $5500, and George doesn't sound very confident on his ability to execute due to the complexity of working around the railing posts. So I said that I would just like to keep the led lights on the perimeter and asked him to remove the rope lighting. 
Final Cost? $3626 That is significantly more than the $1000 coupon ad that brought me to this vendor !!!
I should have gone with DiPierro, but I thought I'd save money if I had bought the coupon.
As I said, I will be unenrolling from Angie's List after this. I really believe in this service, but the delivery hasn't matched the slick marketing. I am sorry and I hope that other people's experiences aren't like mine. Good luck. I really wish you all great success.

"There was a misunderstanding at first, but she came today, and it went very well. She was very good. Her ideas were very good. I would definitely recommend her."

"It was a pleasant experience. Chuck was dependable and showed up on the agreed date. He was conscientious and when I criticized him, he was friendly and fixed the problem. He stands behind his work. Two months after the job was done, the ceiling paint peeled around the recess light. He came back at no charge and fixed the ceiling. I would recommend Chuck because of his reliability,he stands behind his work, aims to please, and follows through with answering and calling you back on the telephone."

"The sheer scope of our project demanded extensive coordination between several different contractors and designers - something that has caused no end of headaches in the past. Under the guidance of Hagit, Brian, Mark, and the whole Kitchen Center team, however, our experience could not have gone more smoothly. Our remodel began with discussing design ideas with Hagit and Brian. After providing only a rough idea of what we wanted, they returned to us with designs that went above and beyond what we had envisioned - their experience and expertise were evident right off the bat. Like other reviewers have mentioned, their design included pegboard drawers, spice drawers, and an excellent and versatile arrangement of cabinets - though the highlight for me, personally, was the dead corner organizer. Their design really made optimal use of the space we had available. Hagit responded to our questions and comments promptly and with great insight, and the whole team proved very easy to work with. From that point on, it was largely a hands off experience on our part. We picked out some cabinet colors and designs, as well as the appliances and counter-tops (though we sought their advice on those as well) - but they coordinated all the contractors and subcontractors and established a construction schedule to which they rigorously adhered. Mark and his crew of contractors worked diligently and efficiently. They sealed off the second floor to preserve its livability and afforded us free use of the house throughout construction. His team, as well as every subcontractor they hired, provided excellent work that we are very pleased with. Any issue that arose was resolved promptly and satisfactorily. No project is without its unexpected complications, but the Kitchen Center team handled them with aplomb, and the project was finished well within schedule. Even when we chipped in that we were interested in having central air installed, Brian found a contractor and seamlessly integrated it into the greater body of work. Though they don't come cheap, the Kitchen Center is well worth the money. We are very pleased with the work they've done for us, and it was an absolute pleasure working with them."

"Didn't really come in with ideas beyond what I talked about for the space. Could have used the hour to highlight location of items in space and color concept to enhance design ideas.
