Home Improvement Program

My daughter saw an ad at the local library about Homeowners Rehab and she called their office. Our house was going into foreclosure. We had tried for over a year to get a bank to give us a loan to pay back taxes and make necessary repair. Our home had safety issues in and outside; lead paint on the walls and soil, electrical and plumbing problems, holes in the attic and roof, falling porches. We could not go into the yard for fear of the many hazards. The Home Improvement Program helped us get a low interest rate loan at a local bank. They also provided us with support and resources to help us create and maintain a budget, supported contractor selections, brought our home up to code, perform home inspections and all aspects of rehab in and outside the home. We feel that the Home Improvement Program at saved our lives!! This home has been in my family for many years. HRP allowed my grandchildren and their future children to grow up here, since now we will not be uprooted from our home. We will continue to live as a close knit family. I sleep better at night knowing that a household of single females can be successful and that my grandchildren can live and play safely here.”


Basement

Home Improvement has restored my faith in contractors. Not only did I get excellent service on the several occasions I have used them, but it was timely service as well. I always got a phone call keeping me up to date on appointments, procurement of materials, and the rare delay. No more sitting around wondering when and if your contractor is going to show up! We’ve used them for minor repairs and a small roofing job, and were quite pleased with the results. I’d recommend Home improvement to any of my friends and family. “My family want to thank you for the great job you did in finishing our basement. The finished product exceeds our every expectation and we are delighted. In this day and age, you are a rarity. It is not often that you are able to find someone capable of handling every problem that arises with a satisfactory solution, takes pride in his work, is reliable, and has a great deal of integrity. The work was done in a professional and timely manner and proved to be a most pleasant experience for us. We will not hesitate to call you for any home project we may have in the future or to recommend you to anyone we know who needs your services…”


Complete Kitchen Remodeling

I want to tell you again how happy I am both with the caliber of work that you have done so far in my home, and with the personal integrity which you bring to your work! As you know, I am a single woman and relied on your advice along the way and you steered me right every time, even talking to the home supply store staff to answer questions I couldn’t while I was there picking up supplies! You have painted and repaired as we worked through the entire top 2 floors, replacing a ceiling fan, repairing/replacing doors, hanging pictures and curtains, all the things I can’t do myself! When I bought a gallon of $40.00 nonreturnable paint that didn’t match the bathroom, you custom blended it to exactly match my accessories! Next summer we will be working together to paint and repair the first floor with a complete kitchen remodeling and family room addition also planned into the future and I have complete confidence that I will be as happy as I am with this summer’s excellent results! Thank you again for your quality work and your personal attention to me and my family! We miss your warmth around the house already!”
