2010 $ 63,000.00
Comment : We needed a full In - Law addition to be added onto our home and time was of the essence . Being extremely cautious we interviewed a handful of contractors in order to make the right decision. We listened to their presentations , talked with them about our ideas and received their quotes for the project . After all was said and done we were most comfortable hiring John Arnone of Arnone Buyilding & Remodeling.
As our project progressed we never had to worry or wonder when someone was going to show up to work because there was constant communinication either in person , by telephone or via e - mail between ourselves and John . Our questions were always answered promptly and we always knew what was going to be taking place on any given day . We are happy to say that our project was started and completed on schedule as John had promised .
We highly recommend Arnone Building & Remodeling for any large or small home improvement project .

Name : Chris & Laura Panettier Convert cape into colonial ( 3 bedrooms , 2 bathrooms ( 1 master ) & l aundry room.
Comment : We decided to convert our Cape Cod home into a colonial , and our first priority was to hire the right contractor. This was our first remodeling project so we were very meticulous with our selection of a contractor and wanted someone we trusted and felt comfortable with. After meeting several contractors we were confident when we hired Arnone Building & Remodeling. John Arnone is very professional , helpful , knowledgable and honest. His patience and attention to detail were apparent while designing our floor plan with us and presenting a very detailed contract and payment plan. John Arnone's hands on expertise was evident as he coordinated every detail of the project and completed it on time. John, his employees and subcontractors were all professionals and proved their commitment by always arriving on time.

Name : Bernand & Jinsy Caparrelli Extensive interior remodeling ( bathroom , kitchen , interior stairs , tile )
Comment : We found John Arnone through an internet search. We deceided to give John a call after reading the testimonials on his web site. As soon as we met there was an immediate comfort factor . He gave us his honest professional opinion about the job, and also offered some of his design ideas as well. It''s very hard to find a contractor who is as honest as Joyhn and he truly has the customer's best interest as his number one prioity . Just look at the pictures on his web site, they speak for themselves. He helped us update a worn down 1980's house into the dream home it is today. I can say without a doubt if you hired someone else besides John Arnone you settled for less. There is no way we would attach our name to this letter if these statements weren't true. John , you are a true gentleman and professional and I know we will be calling you back to perform all our future work.

Name : Beth & Greg Convert family room back into a 2 - car garage & kitchen tile backsplash
2010 $ 15, 000.00
Comment : Our conversion back to a garage was like a segment from HGTV's Holmes on Homes , from horrible to amazing . The contract presented was very detailed and outlined the sequence of work that would be performed along with payment amount . The demolation stage of project exposed alot of electrical code violations along with a gas line that needed correcting . It was explained what was necessary to correct to meet our town's code . If I didn't understand something it was explained in ways that made sence without making me feel stupid . The sub - contractors were top - notch and charged fairly . He bought top quaility materials , didn't pad the estimate and kept to our timetable . John Arnone did extra work and didn't charge for it . My dad the contractor , now deceased , would have loved him . We do !
P.S John , I could have added 6 more paragraphs . Thank you for doing everything you do. Beth

Name : Dave & Judt Alt Install a full lenght dormer in attic of a 3 story home ( 2 bedrooms / bath )2009 $ 55,000.00
Commit : The first day we meet Mr. Arnone we were greatly impressed with his volume of knowledge , awareness of building codes and overall professionalism. Mr. Arnone's quote was extremely prompt , easy to read for " a homeowner " and listed a detailed description of all aspects of the project along with amounts on allowance items , alternate ideas and cost. Based on those reasons along with feeling very confident , we hired Arnone Building & Remodeling to construct a third story addition consisting of bedrooms with a bathroom. The project was started and completed on time with no , absolutely no misunderstandings , stress or issues. The workmanship was perfect . Mr. Arnone is extremely reliable , conscientious and displays a passion for both his work and customers concerns. As homeowners we dealt with contractors for the past 35 years on various projects. Those times had taught us that contractors could not be trusted in just about every aspect. In the beginning of this particular project we were nervous and not looking forward to the struggle and aggravation of dealing with yet another contractor. John Arnone has given us back the feeling of trust amd honesty that is so important in this world today. We can't say it enough times . John is RELIABLE , TRUSTWORTHY , KNOWLEDGEABLE , DETAILED ORIENTED, a PERFECTIONIST in his work , but most importantly he is a STRAIGHT UP HONEST person. In the future , whenever a new project surfaces , John Arnone will be our first and only choice.
