Jorgelina Z. says, "There has been a leak from the roof into a bedroom which kept recurring after being repaired. There had never been a clear explanation of the problem until Roberto was hired to apply anti-mold paint to the area. From his report: "Observation & Safety Warning: During the sanding process, I identified significant oxidation (rust) on the internal metal drywall framing. This indicates a history of moisture penetration. To ensure air quality and minimize dust for the resident, we proceeded with the original plan to seal and smooth the area. Recommendation: This current repair is a cosmetic/temporary solution. Once the winter season concludes, I strongly recommend a full inspection of the upper skylight structure to identify the source of the moisture. To permanently prevent mold regrowth, the rusted metal framing should be replaced with new, moisture-resistant materials." ~~~ Years back I got very sick due to the dust from construction work in my building, which forced me to move out. When Roberto arrived I was overwhelmed. What impact would the current mold situation have on my life? He responded with patience and empathy, calming me down and reassuring me. After the work was done, the room was immaculate clean. The air was clean! And he had mopped the floor! Roberto is a rare find. His rates are more than reasonable. He is very easy to talk to and gives clear explanations. He arrived on time, right on the dot! He is also an electrical engineer and musician! He wears boot covers to protect your floors! Roberto is an all-around exceptional human being. I recommend him highly. And don’t forget, he is also an electrician!"See more

Judith H. says, "Excellent Experience- Jay from Rivera is a rare individual with a strong desire to work within your budget and on your terms. He's knowledgeable, personable, honest and very hard working. He shows up on time, does his work quickly and efficiently, answers any questions and makes sure you are satisfied. He was so anxious to start work immediately that it was actually a little unsettling. I contacted him on a Sunday morning, 3 days before Christmas and he was willing to drive to Western Mass from Rhode Island and start work as soon as he arrived. It sounded too good to be true. But then I thought, what have I got to lose? The other Contractors I contacted wouldn't even give me an estimate until after Christmas and if he wants to drive 90 minutes on a Sunday, go for it. So, I gave him the OK at 10:53 AM and he was at my door ready to work by 12:30. I was amazed and pleasantly surprised. He has a strong work ethic, does an excellent job and I highly recommend him. On rare occasions, things actually turn out to be as good as they seem. I'm glad I didn't let my suspicious nature curb his enthusiasm. Happy Holidays"See more
