They are not just a painting company; they are able to do most projects a homeowner can think of. I own a second home in Stratton Vermont, it?s basically a family ski house. When I purchased the property, I made a long list of repairs that needed to be done. I met a number of times with the owner Harry Lux, and he went out of his way to discuss what needed to be done. His attention to detail and suggestions were excellent. When it came to getting the work done, his crew was very professional, personable, and did great work. Because this is a vacation home, it is difficult for me to be there and watch over any work that is being done. I could not dedicate my time on every detail. Luxbrush took care of everything. They are TRUSTWORTHY, RELIABLE, FAIRLY PRICED, and do HIGH QUALITY work. By the way, I am not being prompted to write this. I had a lot of difficulty finding people in Southern Vermont to do good work. Most others are way over priced, do shoddy work, and cannot be depended on at all. I'm glad they're around to help with my home improvement projects.

He arrived exactly as planned, described exactly what he would do as we looked at the driveway, quoted me an incredibly reasonable price, and arrived the next day as he said he would, precisely on time. I did not ask about repairing cracks or holes, as I needed to keep this as inexpensive as possible. Note to customers: if all you're paying for is driveway sealing, don't expect it to magically repair cracks and holes. Those kinds of repairs require additional time and materials and, of course, expense. Scott and his partner Mike first edged the driveway - got all the overgrowing grass and dirt away, then cleaned off the driveway thoroughly. Then they sealed it. I watched, fascinated, as Scott spread the sealer and Mike carefully made sure any drips (very few) were wiped clean of any surface they didn't belong on. They were quiet, efficient, thorough. Even down to the chalk line at the base of the driveway so the edge looks neat at the street. My husband was thrilled to see how well they did it and how quickly. A nasty job (for us) over and done, with no fuss, no muss. I have worked with many, many contractors as we own a few investment properties. We have worked with the good, the bad and the incompetent. Every one of them wanted some amount of money up front - a guarantee that they would get paid. I expect, especially with a small business operator, to pay immediately, on site, or to leave a check if I can't be there. I arrange to be there because I want to see that the work is done correctly, but also because work well done needs to be paid as promised. Because Scott behaved in a professional manner from the start, I made sure I could hand him the check for the job, which I did just before he finished up. If I had not been able to do this, I would have arranged for a neighbor or family member to do this in my stead. I've already got Scott in my calendar for next year's sealing. He recommended that I seal it again next year because it had gone so many years without sealing. But while he could have told me that I needed to do it every year, he didn't. He said that after next year, I can then do it every other year. That kind of honesty will get my business and my recommendation over and over.

"I strongly caution anyone considering doing business with this company. I gave them a deposit of $4,428.65, and when I canceled a week later they kept almost $900 of it even though my service was not for another 6 weeks. You do sign a very simple, clearly stated document that says: should you cancel beyond three business days, you understand your deposit is non-refundable. Northern Basements may choose to refund depending on cancellation circumstances I fully acknowledge that I canceled a few days outside that window, but I hoped an honest company that cares about customers and referrals would choose to provide a full refund. I am a sucker for hoping that. They chose to risk my impression, referral, and review for $885.53. If nothing else comes out of this, I hope everyone reading at least goes in knowing that this statement on their contract is a real threat and your deposit is a hostage. Even Air b and bs offer full refunds on deposits within just a few days of their arrival date. 3 days to cancel with service not scheduled for 6 weeks out, Come on man. No materials were used. No service workers time was taken. The manager justified the 20% withholding as credit card fees, restocking fees, time and resources for the estimate, and administrative fees. I wholly accepted responsibility for the credit card fees and time of Paul, the gentleman who performed the assessment, and I offered to settle at 10%. I still believe any reputable company would have provided a full refund at this point in a project, or at most deduct the credit card fees because nothing more went into this beyond what would have normally been a free estimate. The further arguments the manager made for the additional fees were the scheduling of their team and the allocation of materials for my project. Complete nonsense, especially when the project was not set for 6 weeks away. Because they had my deposit hostage, they had control over how much they decided they wanted to keep, it was completely arbitrary, and they kept almost $900 of my money without providing anything. If they wanted to cover their credit card transaction fees, fine, at most 6%, but the rest is absolute robbery. The only solace I can find in this loss of almost $900 now is that I did not spend another $13,000 with them. I tried to call Paul after speaking with the manager to ask if he could do me a favor and try to reason with the manager on my behalf because he seemed nice enough. No answer. No callback. I will never seek out their services again and I will actively discourage others from doing so but, based on my experience, I expect they do not care."

FAQs for boiler repair projects in Ryegate, VT
The average cost to install a new water heater is around $1,300, but you can expect to pay between $875 and $1,750, depending on the kind of water heater, the size of the unit, and the professional chosen to complete the work. Tankless water heaters can push your price higher, as installation is more complicated, with prices as high as $3,500. The location and accessibility of your water heater will play a role in the project cost, as those sitting in tight spaces like a crawl space will drive up your labor costs.
Yes, most states require plumbers to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed plumber could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.

It is very difficult and dangerous to install your own water heater, so we strongly recommend against tackling this as a DIY project. Not only will you need to wire your water heater, but you’ll also need to connect plumbing to the intake and outlet. Sweating copper pipes and connecting wiring properly are skills most DIYers don’t have, and even if you do feel confident you can do it, working with water and electricity always leaves the potential for electrocution. Hiring a local water heater installer is well worth the investment.
The average cost to hire a plumber is around $100 an hour but can vary between $45 and $200 an hour depending on the plumber’s experience and the repair that you need. It’s also important to note that these prices can go up on holidays, and emergency plumber rates average $150 per hour, in addition to a flat-rate trip fee of $100 to $350.
