As a decorated veteran who has honorably served this country, I understand that disability benefits are not merely handouts, but rather an earned entitlement. I reached out to address my concerns with the hope of finding a satisfactory solution. However, similar to your response, there was a reluctance to rectify the situation, and collaborate on a resolution that would have benefited both parties. As a disabled veteran, the purpose of the job was to make my home handicap accessible. Period. I did not request complimentary services, but rather an ADA-specific toilet listed on the estimate which compensation was charged to the government, but not rightfully delivered. Contrary to my request, the work did not meet the expected standard and was of poor quality, necessitating additional expenses to redo, despite being completed less than a year ago. Due to your overcharging the government, and my having to replace a damaged major appliance due to your poor workmanship. I cannot recommend Betterton Home Improvement Inc. based on my experience. Their failure to meet expectations and deliver on their commitments has left me extremely dissatisfied.

!!! Betterton Home Improvements did the entire exterior of my Home in Hampton, including siding, windows, doors, roof, gutters, decks. All work was done professionally and on time at a reasonable cost. The worksite was left perfectly clean. I am planning to hire them again for extensive interior remodeling !!! Five stars.

I can not express how happy I was when I walked into my kitchen the next morning after the work was completed to make a cup of coffee! I had to just set in there for a while to look at how wonderful everything looked! Thank you Betterton Home Improvement for doing such an awesome job! :)

Service questions
1. Should I stay home during roof replacement?

It's not necessary to stay home during roof replacement. Roofing work is noisy and can cause vibrations inside the house, which might be uncomfortable. Most homeowners choose to leave during major parts of the project, but our team ensures safety and keeps you updated, whether you're home or not.

+-

The timeline for a roof replacement typically ranges from one to three days, depending on the size and complexity of the roof, weather conditions, and material type. Larger or more intricate roofs may take a bit longer, but we always aim for efficient, timely completion.

3. How to hire a roofing contractor?
+-

To hire a roofing contractor, start by researching local companies with good reviews and proper licensing. Request quotes from multiple contractors, verify their insurance and certifications, and ask for references. Always ensure you get a written contract that outlines the scope of work, timeline, and payment terms.

4. How to check if a roofing company is legit?
+-

Check if a roofing company is legit by verifying their business license, insurance, and local certifications. Look for memberships in professional associations, read customer reviews, and ask for recent project references. A legitimate company will be transparent and provide all documentation upon request.

5. How to choose a roofing company?
+-

When choosing a roofing company, consider their experience, customer reviews, warranty offerings, and quality of materials. Make sure they provide clear communication, detailed estimates, and a solid portfolio of completed projects. Local expertise is also a major advantage for understanding regional roofing needs.

6. How do you know if your roofing contractor is ripping you off?
+-

Warning signs that your roofing contractor might be ripping you off include vague contracts, pressure to pay large upfront deposits, lack of proper documentation, and unexplained price increases. Always ask for itemized estimates and written guarantees, and avoid contractors who avoid answering your questions directly.
