What Our Clients Are Saying About Us

“An architect recommended Residential Remedies (RR) for expertise, quality work and high integrity.  We interviewed several general contractors and found Joe Fiore, owner of RR, to be responsive and competitive in price.  He was our first choice. We contracted with Residential Remedies in November 2012 for significant renovation in an older home that we had just purchased.  Changes involved structural issues (requiring engineering assessment), electrical, plumbing and HVAC as well as carpentry, drywall and painting.  We found Joe’s team to be hard-working and dependable.  Joe was on-site daily to make sure the work was progressing in a quality manner.  At times, he offered suggestions that significantly improved the overall project.  The clean-up was great.  Phase 1 of the project was completed on schedule and on-budget in February 2013.  The project cost to date exceeded $25,000.  Residential Remedies provided detailed invoicing with backup documentation on all labor and materials. Joe’s greatest strength is his integrity. Phase 2 began in April 2013.  The project involved converting a one-car garage to living space with an objective to make the finished area match the original design and construction of the house.  We celebrated with a steak dinner for Joe and his team. Since 2013, we have engaged Residential Remedies for smaller projects and called on him for emergencies like a roof leak. In each case, the work was excellent. In 2017, we asked Joe to assess three bathrooms and provide recommendations. This work will begin in August. We are extremely satisfied with Residential Remedies and highly recommend Joe and his team.— John White

“We hired Joe Fiore first to do a major exterior renovation/front porch addition, then again two years later to relocate our family room and build a roof structure over our deck. His work is exemplary in every way and we were delighted that he finished work on time and on budget BOTH times. We would recommend him unequivocally!— Sam & Kate Sonawane

“Conrad was awesome and I truly, truly am so happy with Residential Remedies. Quite funny because with this morning I woke up to watermarks in my garage which is right by my boys bathroom. I’m going to have my plumber come over and check it out but I have a feeling I will have that bathroom remodeled soon!— Ellise Lane

“Residential Remedies has completed several projects at my house over the years including a complete teardown and remodel of my kitchen and my master bath. I couldn’t be more pleased. Joe Fiore is fair, honest, and completes his work as promised. He offers his creative and artistic input and his work turns out to be beautiful. Also, Joe works with only very reliable and talented employees and subs. I highly recommend Residential Remedies.— Beth Berngartt

“I have had the honor of working with Joe as a professional colleague for almost a decade and in this time I have grown to respect Joe as a contractor, a craftsperson, a business person and a friend. When it came time to do our own large addition and remodel, there was no question as to who I wanted to take care of my family and my home: Joe and his crew. Joe has become a part of my family (my 4 boys call him “Uncle Joey”) and the mutual respect Joe and I have for each other is something I truly treasure.— Jennifer Heron Brock, NCARB JHB Architect

“Joe is an extremely competent and capable person that you can trust with your wallet or your wife. He runs his business based on those values, I never hesitate to recommend Residential Remedies. They have performed work on our projects for 20 years.— Sean Riley, Riley-Lewis General Contractors

“Joe has done a considerable amount of work for me over the past 20 years. His work each and every time is nothing short of impeccable and fairly priced. That my friends is just the way he rolls.— Dascheil Propes

“Working with the Residential Remedies team was fantastic! Trustworthy and detail oriented, they’re true craftsmen. I would hire them again in a flash!— Sofi Frankowski

“We were incredibly pleased with the work Residential Remedies did on our home. It was a very large job; structural walls were taken out of the first and second floor. Nonetheless, the job was handled very skillfully and in a timely matter. With major structural changes like these, not every cost can be foreseen. One of the things I liked most about Joe was that he was generous and fair in coming to a resolution of issues which were previously unforeseen. Also the management staff was great. They helped us make choices and encouraged us to make all the necessary choices in a timely manner such that the project could be finished when they said it would be finished. I have recommended Joe and his firm to everyone I meet. The quality of the work was very good but our overall satisfaction with the process was even better. I did a lot of research on other contractors and met with several. I am happy that I picked one who I came to trust. I am confident that they did a great job at a fair price.— Laura Jenkins

“Great flexibility, commitment to outstanding quality and price containment are among the many positive characteristics of the Residential Remedies team. I recommend without reservation.— Anthony E. Swartz

“Joe, Thank you for the ramps that Conrad and your guys did for Brian on 09/15/17 so that he could get in our house when he was released on 09/16/17. Don’t know what we would have done without your help. We want you to know we greatly appreciate it.— Brian and Vicki Allison

“So, I did a wedding last weekend and the bride and groom were doing photos before the wedding and they used the steps to the balcony in the narthex and the photographer said “Those steps, the woods are just gorgeous! Has that always been there?” We told him we just did it last year and he and the wedding party were knocked out. They thought they were stunning and looked as if they’d been there forever—they insisted that “craftsmen like that just aren’t around anymore”. I thought you might want to share that with Dave and the carpenter who did the work. It truly is fabulous, a real work of art.— Pastor K. Martin

“(Herb) I will be singing your praises to everyone who will listen for a long time. Thank you for being there every day and making sure everything got done right. I don’t know how anyone does this without Herb! (Joe) You’re a rock star in so many ways! Thank you for your great work, patience, and great advice. And a killer cutting board! Thank you!!!— Kim Eaton
