Total Home Interiors, LLC

Awesome crew & made a big difference in noise reduction from upstairs neighbors

Thanks to Glenn, Matt, and Rich I can use my phone in my home office again! I had a great experience with Total Home Interiors. They came and looked at my space and taught me about soundproofing and came up with a cost-effective and efficient way to solve the noise from my family and dogs. They were responsible, respectful, and timely. Great service!

Total Home Interiors, and more specifically Matt who I worked with, is the cream of the crop. Respectful, efficient, and super knowledgeable on every detail of the project. Matt taught me a ton along the way and I absolutely loved how honest and transparent he was with everything along the way. I have already hired Total Home Interiors for additional work as this is an extremely rare find in terms of quality, customer service, and cost and they are simply the best.

Where to start? .... I been working with contractors for the better part of 20 years with two properties and multiple projects and while I have had success with a handful, for the most part the contractors I've worked with have pretty much disappointed me in more than one way.... This February (2020) I had an unfortunate incident with a pipe bursting in my finished basement, which I use for a home office as well as a home theater and family hangout, it's probably my favorite part of the covered house as I personally designed every space and had it built to my high demands including sound proofing.  Immediately started looking for the best end-to-end service i could find that could do the job better than original and in an acceptable time-frame. I was fortunate enough to land Glenn Kutoroff and his company Total Home Interior (THI), not only they are 1/2 companies that actually do professional soundproofing in New Jersey but his prices and ability to do it all,  was exactly what I was looking for. Glenn's crew is fantastic, they were able to finish my 1000 Sq/f basement in two weeks but did so with flying colors and incredible attention to detail. I cannot say enough great things about how professional these guys are, but suffice it to say, they showed up every day at 9 am and left at 5-6pm even in the midst of a pandemic, which I'm grateful that they got this done before the shutdown. I had some crazy requirements with my Home Theater where I wanted to re-purpose my under-stairs closet into a media/server room. Matt was simply an artist with the work he did, running all the 7.4.2 speaker cables from my theater room into the closet in addition to setting up all the equipment, testing and calibrating to perfection.... and he even design a custom cooling for the room that's right out of a science competition.. If you want the best soundproofing, interior finishing, flooring (we did vinyl and carpet), painting, odd projects and professional level AV installation, these guys are just #1.

Total Home Interiors was that rare hire who executed exactly what they described, showed up on time and came within budget. Couldn't ask for anything more.

I can not speak to the quality of any other type of work they do but they do not know how to sound proof. I have spent approximately $7,000 to attempt to sound proof a party wall and I STILL hear everything. It was a complete waste of money. No doubt the owner will reply to this with some type of answer but trust me their process does not work. Their only continued offer of solution is to continue additional areas with no guarantee that any of it will work. Hire them for their other work but not sound proofing.

We recently purchased a newly constructed townhome and found that the lower level had terrible sound transference. We could literally hear our neighbor’s conversations! Glenn came out a couple of times to assess the situation and, after meeting with a few soundproofing companies, we opted to proceed with Glenn and his team at Total Home. This is NOT a cheap project, but we were aware of this when we started to look into it. We sent the plans/quote to the developer of our property and we all conferenced a call to discuss the most effective way to handle to problem. Glenn was professional every step of the way and removed costs from the quote once he understood what was already in place under the drywall. His team came in and were very respectful and left the property clean at the end of each day. It was a big project that took a couple weeks in total, but they did everything they said they would do and everything that we asked of them. We knew this would not create a 100% sound barrier, but we would have purchased a single family home if that was what we needed. The improvement that we have experienced, however, is tremendous. We are very happy that we hired Total Home and spent the money to improve our quality of life at home.

Glenn from Total Home Interiors did some work for my home in October. He helped me reduce sound travelling from my living room and dining areas on the ground floor down into a bedroom in the basement which was directly below. Its an old house, built in 1908 but was renovated about 15 years ago. Being a well insulated foundation, there was no insulation in the walls or ceiling so the noise traveled very well. That is the backstory. Glenn came by in first week of October on a Friday and spent a good amount of time with me testing and going over where exactly the sound was coming from. we discussed my needs to dampen the sound as much as possible within the confines of my budget. He send me an itemized description of all the work he intended to do that evening and explained the reasons why it would help my situation. It was within my budget as well. I had two other sound specialists come by for an estimate and Glenn was by far the most astute and detailed of the three. In terms of cost they were all comparable. For the same price, it was obvious Glenn was the right choice. we schedule the work for the 3rd week of October, estimating it would take 4-5 days. It took 6 days which is totally fine. There were some logistics issue the second day where they just fell short of needed materials so had to close early. and the last day was the "fit and finish" clean up day. basically, it was within time and no issues there. as far as the work goes, on a base level they did exactly as what they said they would do. Sound was reduced by probably 75% or more!! Great! on top of that, demo and construction is dirty and dusty work. Glenn's team (giving some props to Kenny) cleaned up daily and was very respectful of the house. All in all, they did a great job. To be fair and balanced, was there anything i did not like? to be honest not really. I was very happy with the work. I felt I got my money's worth in effort, build and quality. Glenn did as he said he would and was very receptive to all my questions and concerns through the process. Would i recommend Glen and Total Home Interiors to my mom or my sister? the answer is Yes. I rely on other people's reviews, I hope this will help you in your decision making process. Regards, Paul

“Matt Falcone from Total Home Interiors did an excellent job of repairing all the electric shades in our apartment. He easily solved all of the technical problems. He was a delight to deal with. He was courteous and professional. He made our repair process a pleasurable experience!! We definitely plan to use him and Total Home Interiors again for other electronic needs.I am happy to refer him to our friends.”

Very flexible and helpful with advice

They went out of their the way to make me a happy customer. Very responsive.

Did a really good job on the project

Matt really knows his stuff. He is very professional, and knows how to work in a finished home.

Very responsive. Great quality.

I own a town home, my neighbors bedroom is directly above me and I wake up all night long. I contacted Total Home Interiors, spoke to Glenn, and explained my issue. I informed him that I can arrange to have my neighbors home during the estimate to walk around, see how loud it is, and to get into their unit if necessary. Glenn informed me that was unnecessary, they didn't have to be there for the estimate, and I trusted his professional opinion. He came over for the estimate and recommended I soundproof my bedroom and hallway. He explained that the work he was going to do would result in a 60-80% reduction in the sound and that I'd definitely be able to sleep at night. The estimate was $5500 and although I thought it was very expensive, it's not easy to find people that do this kind of work, so I hired him. I paid him $3200 cash upfront and gave him 2 postdated checks for the remaining 2 payments. His crew was very professional throughout the process, they worked hard, and I tipped them a total of $250, not because they fixed my issue (I couldn't have known that yet) but because they did the job they were told to do and they worked really hard. Once the project was completed, the true test was to sleep in my room and see if there was a drastic improvement like I was promised. After less than a week and still waking up at night, noticing very little improvement, I contacted Glenn to inform him it didn't work. Now that it didn't work, he asked to send over his project manager to hear how loud it is, get into my neighbors unit, take decibel readings, etc. basically everything that he should have done during the estimate and before doing the job. What was identified during this process is that the sound was coming through my closet in my spare room on the other side of the wall which wasn't soundproofed. Had he done all of this during the estimate, it would have been identified prior to doing the work and I'm sure he would have suggested that I soundproof my closet in my spare that my neighbors bedroom is also above rather than my hallway. Glenn now recommended to install an acoustic underpayment under my neighbors carpet in their bedroom. He told me he'd charge me cost because "he is a good business man". Cost for this work was an additional $3000 which to me was insane especially without a guarantee. I attempted to make a deal with him, offering him an additional $700 on top of the $2300 I owed him if he did the job and it worked. He not only refused but immediately started threatening me with lawyers, putting a lien on my house, criminal charges for "theft of service" etc. After many text messages back and forth and Glenn making no attempt to fix the issue with the money we agreed to, I refused to pay the balance I owed and told him to do what he had to do and to stop contacting me. A few weeks later I received a notice for a mediation hearing as Glenn had filed a police report against me for "theft of service". I went to the mediation hearing and

Glenn is a pros that you can trust him. He provides you the best quality product at the most reasonable price; the staffs he sent to install the blinds for my home are very professional and very skillful, done a great job and my home looks a lot neater after that job. I highly recommend to all who is looking for installing blinds.

Professional thorough and on time all the things you want in a contractor. responsive to me and available after hours when I needed. Competitive and worth the service and willing to pay extra for the top service
