This company did great job. Geneci was to the point to where I was looking for. The installers went above and beyond working through the challenges of installing the new countertop. Communication was also excellent. I am very satisfied with the service. Will recommend to friends.
The countertop looks beautiful and everyone at the company was a pleasure to work with!
Kitchen & Countertop Center Of New EnglandContacted for an appliance repair. The only times they could schedule were during the day, so we had to take time off work. The tech was not able to repair this (almost brand new) machine and recommended we "buy a new one". Left us a magnet so now we know who to call the next time we want...
Family run operation. They have the best variety of stone. Dealt with Hanibal , who was incredibly helpful and friendly. Good pricing. They worked with my contractor, showed up when scheduled for delivery and installation , and did a professional job. Countertop looks great. Highly recommended.
Replied to phone message and set up an appointment. Arrived at the set time, diagnosed problem, and repaired broken part after first going to parts supplier.
Repair was excellent (it is an older model), gave me price prior to ordering, and came back as soon as he received the new parts. Very polite, and punctual.

"The hot water tank replacement was completed above and beyond my expectations! The timing of this repair could not have been any more stressful as I was leaving for vacation the following day! However, before I left for vacation the tank had already been delivered and the work had been scheduled. The warranties were explained, all costs were clearly identified in advance and when we return home from vacation we had a brand new properly functioning hot water tank! I would absolutely hire them to do any work necessary in my house!"

Offering any residential sheetrock, plastering, or painting sevices. Anywhere from new construction to patch and repair.
"We recently hired Custom Construction Services LLC for an interior painting project in my home, including painting our kitchen island cabinets, and installing 2 doors and an attic vent. We couldn’t be more pleased with the results! From start to finish, the experience was outstanding. Derek took time to go over our plans, provided us with sound advice when needed, and sent estimates promptly. He was in constant communication throughout the whole process. Derek accommodated our last-minute requests, adjusted our quotes, and promptly addressed our questions or concerns over the phone. Derek’s team was incredibly professional and punctual, arriving exactly when they said they would. They took great care to protect my floors, ensuring that everything was covered and safe from any paint splatters. Their attention to detail was impeccable; every wall (including ceiling and trim in some rooms) and cabinet was painted with precision, leaving no streaks or missed spots. Clean-up was thorough, leaving my home spotless and the walls, especially our kitchen island cabinets, looking absolutely stunning. The final result exceeded my expectations. If you’re looking for top-notch interior painting services, I highly recommend Custom Construction LLC. Their expertise, professionalism, and dedication to customer satisfaction truly set them apart. Thank you, Derek and team, for transforming my home with such beautiful results! We’re sure to hire them again for our next project."

The average cost to hire a handyman ranges from about $40 to $140 per hour. Average project cost ranges between $180 and $700, but the cost per hour and per project depends heavily on the type, size, and complexity of the project. The pro’s experience level and your location also factor into how much a handyman charges per hour or per project. You can also expect to pay higher rates or additional fees for emergency services, or around periods of high customer demand, like holidays.
There are several countertop options available to fit your lifestyle and needs.
Granite countertops are durable and come in a variety of colors.
Soapstone countertops are prone to scratches and best in smaller kitchens.
Marble countertops are less durable than granite but a good option for busy kitchens.
Slate countertops are stain-resistant, making them easy to clean.
Limestone countertops must be sealed often to prevent scratches.
Acrylic countertops cost less than granite while still providing durability.
Laminate countertops are the most affordable but chip and fade faster.
Wood countertops need monthly sealing to maintain.
The cost to install countertops is $3,105 on average. This project cost can range from $400 to $8,500, depending on the material, edging, and countertop size.
Laminate countertops are generally the most cost-efficient, ranging from $8 to $27 per square foot. On the other hand, slate countertops are considered more luxurious and range from $30 to $90 per square foot. There are also countertop materials priced between those two, including stainless steel, granite, Corian, and wood.
There are several questions or things to know before hiring a handyman to do any work in your home.
What kind of work do they do?
Do they have proper licensing?
Do they charge for estimates?
Is the estimate for both labor and materials?
Do they provide references?
Do you provide a guarantee?
When can you start and finish the job?
Do you have any before and after photos of your work?
How long have you been doing this kind of work?
Do you clean up and dispose of waste when the job is finished?
Yes, you should hire a handyman who’s licensed, certified, and insured, if possible. States have different requirements for handyman licensing, registration, and certifications. If licensing is required in your area, you may pay more for a licensed handyman with experience than one who is not licensed or certified, but you’re likely to get a better end result for your project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local handymen guidelines.
