Our experience with Santoro Home Improvements was extremely positive from start to finish. Our plan was to build a significant addition to our son and daughter- in- law's historic home for us as we were in the process of downsizing. We wanted a contractor in the area of our new dwelling and searched the internet. After several calls we got to Santoro and we had a good feeling immediately. We met with Tony and knew we had the right people for our project. Tony spent time with us and put all our concerns to rest including connecting us to a very capable architect who was equally as nice and kind as Tony.

The planning and construction took several months in including Covid but was smooth and orderly. If there were any glitches they were minor and taken care of right away but nothing affecting the big picture. We moved in on New Year's Day 2021 and could not be more satisfied. For us this was a huge undertaking with selling our house, planning where to go next and the move itself. I think Tony realized this and his patience and kindness made this whole thing a lot less stressful than we anticipated. Overall we are all happy and comfortable in our new house and could not be more grateful that we found Tony and Santore Home Improvements.

We worked with Tony D. at Santoro for over two years as we planned, prepared for, and then executed a massive addition and home remodel.
Tony helped us find a knowledgeable and talented architect for our project, and then they both worked together and with us (the "us" is me, my husband, and his 80-ish year old parents) to design and build a 1600+ sq ft addition to our historic 1870 1-room schoolhouse, tailoring the design to suit our needs and that we could afford.

I used Santoro Home Improvement to replace and redesign the roof of my seasonal home. Tony was easy to work with and the work he did was beyond my expectations. It looks better than I imagined! He was responsive to any questions or thoughts I had and always got right back to me. He has great attention to detail, down to matching my old siding perfectly. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for top quality construction.

We recently experienced a fire in our home. It was an unfortunate circumstance, but thankfully no one was harmed. What was most disturbing was the swarm of vultures who dove in to try and take advantage of the potential Insurance Money associated with the demolition and rebuild project which lied ahead of us.

Thankfully, we did our homework, and did not commit to any of the false promises which most of the initial companies were falsely promising.

As business owners ourselves, we had high expectations of the type of quality company we were going to entrust in the work required to work on our home. Through thorough research and interviews, we settled on working with Santoro Home Improvements.... and couldn't be happier with the result! Tony was an excellent communicator. He was honest & fair in his proposals & prompt with his replies. He and his team executed their tasks in a punctual manner, and took it upon themselves to review the job upon completion. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND working with Tony and his Team at Santoro!!

Do not trust the Santoro Home Improvement group. They were the general contractors for a project of mine and didn't complete what they promised which was in the contract. Left my place a mess and promises after promises that they would come back and finish they finally came back and made it worse! They give you the best service before to get your business and money and when they do, they don't complete! The overall work was okay at best, but WAY TOO EXPENSIVE. Go with somebody else, these people are scammers!
