We have a colonial with 2 car attached garage that was badly in need of a new roof. I had obtained several high estimates, including one from a well-known box store and another from a local company that advertises heavily on television. In town, I noticed a large house having a roof and siding installed by Major Home Improvements. I contacted Vasilie Kukharchuk for an estimate for a new roof. Vasilie was honest and knowledgeable in assessing the condition of our roof. He explained the variables used to determine the price for a new roof, including: size and pitch, accessibility, and the cost of materials. He indicated that after the tear-off, he would assess the condition of the plywood and 2x4s. Vasilie discussed the required flashing methods and lumber options to use for fascia boards and cited details about the technology of a new roof. Lastly, Vasilie stated the warranty and gave me a fair, competitive estimate. Shingles and materials arrived the day before construction. The crew began work at 7:30 a.m. They are an experienced and cohesive crew who worked efficiently and quickly together throughout a very hot summer day with temperatures soaring to 93 and humidity of 96%. Before stripping off old shingles, the crew ensured that our windows were closed. They attached drop cloths over the gutters so the removal of old shingles did not damage clapboards, windows, or foundation plantings. Once the old roof was torn off, Vasilie determined that we needed numerous replacement sheets of plywood and 2x4s. Even after that determination was made, Vasilie continued to stop by and oversee the progress of the new roof. The crew was extremely hard-working. Throughout construction, one crewman was dedicated to clean-up. Gutters and downspouts were cleared with a leaf blower. After the roof was installed, the cleaner walked the perimeter of the house with a large magnet to attract stray nails. Despite needing replacement sheets of plywood and 2x4s, the roof was completed in 1.5 days. The professional installation of our solid, warrantied roof adds to our energy efficiency and curb appeal. More importantly, our new roof will keep our home dry and warm against the elements and hardships of Mother Nature in Western Mass. Thank you, Vasilie and crew, for a professional, expertly-constructed new roof! We heartily endorse Major Home Improvements for any roofing needs.

After an initial roofing quote from another company (quote was high, employee was brief and not very helpful), we decided to call Major Home Improvements due to the many homes they had done on our street. After our call, the owner (Visilie) was at home our within a day or so. Visilie worked to make sure we knew all of our options, and were given a fair price and communicated very well from start to finish. As young, first time homebuyers we could not have been more appreciative. His crew began work within a week of his initial visit, and did a fantastic job. When we ran into some structural trouble, one of Visilie’s workers came up with a great solution and once he had Visilie’s approval, the work was expertly done and the price for the extra work was very fair. Visilie made sure to stop by the house multiple times each day (on a Saturday and Sunday, nonetheless) to ensure the work was going well. He even came by later on Sunday evening to ensure we were satisfied and to make sure clean up went well. Our new roof looks fantastic, the extra structural work was done very well and in good time, and the cleanup was great. Honest, professional, trustworthy, fair, best contractor experience we have ever had. Took a lot of time to examine the roof prior to quote, answered all of our questions and made great recommendations. Went out of their way to ensure we were satisfied with the work. Would strongly recommend to family and friends.

We had a damaged roof on our queen Anne style home and need to replace it. We have a round turret that is very unique and the first thing you see driving up the street. We searched locally for all kinds of roofers and contracts and everyone turned us down because it was a tough job and not many people have ever seen this type of roof let alone worked on one. When we contacted major home improvements they called us back within an hour and made an appointment to give us a quote. We were so exited that not only Vasilie had accepted this incredibly tough job but it was extremely affordable. We couldnt be happier. We were a few hours away and Vasilie and his crew traveled here just to help us out, we were honestly amazed after being turned down so much I have never experienced such good genuine customer care before. So within 2 weeks of our quote the material and the crew were here and the crew was amazing they came in and had it demoed in an hour and basically finished in one day. the crew was very nice, genuine and very considerate. Vasilie had also traveled multiple times just to make sure we were satisfied. A couple guys came back a second day just to touch things up and make sure it was perfect! They kept things clean and my home looks amazing. Major home improvements did what nobody else could, and my family and neighbors are extremely satisfied. I highly recommend this company I will be calling them for more improvements.

I called Major Home Improvements when I found evidence of ice dams leaking into the attic. During his initial visit and throughout the proposal process, owner Vasilie Kukharchuk walked me through all the details and offered many suggestions on a variety of different topics (e.g. ice & water blocking materials, types of shingles, ridge vents vs gables, warranties). He never pushed any particular solution, only looking to make sure I understood my options and received the products & services most appropriate. After settling on a fair price, the materials arrived the day before and I discovered that some were even better quality than what we had selected! The team of workers arrived at 7am and went non-stop until mid-afternoon, with Vasilie checking in several times to be sure all was going to my satisfaction. After finishing, the crew spent a lot of time cleaning up and collecting all discarded scraps & nails. The roof looks great and I would recommend Major Home Improvements to anyone looking for a fair & honest roof repair company.

We very recently had our roof replaced by Major Home Improvements. Vasilie Kukharchuk (the business owner) was very professional and knowledgeable. He arrived promptly for our initial meeting, walked the property with me, answered all of my questions and provided an estimate for the work on the spot. Vasilies crew arrived right on time to start the job and were very professional as well. We have a HEAVILY landscaped property and the crew was extremely careful to minimize any damage to plants and shrubs. The job was finished right on time and we are VERY happy! There were no high pressure sales gimicks and the entire process was stress free. The guys did a fantastic job cleaning up and you would never know they had been here (except for the beautiful new roof!). We would highly recommend this company without reservation. Were considering having some window work done with them next as we were so pleased with the roofing job. Thanks again Vasilie and Major Home Improvements!!!! Steven Dethloff Monson, MA
