Our kitchen and basement are beautiful and the work was completed on time. The crew was fabulous, Joe Corticada, kept us in the loop at all times and answered all of our questions. We look forward to using Monk’s services in the future! ### All 286 reviews **★★★★★ — HU-82153987, April 2026** > Monks just finished my kitchen renovation. I can’t say enough wonderful things about this company. A+ workmanship! Everyone from the initial meeting, the design process, all of the contractors and the implementation of the project was excellent! Thank you Bill, Cortney, Ward and the entire Monks Team! I’m thrilled with everything! I highly recommend this wonderful company!! **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > Thank you for the review, Debbie! We are so glad that your experience was an A+. Enjoy your beautiful new kitchen! **★★★★★ — Dan C, Sept. 2025** > Our experience with Monks was outstanding. 10 out of 10 will recommend it to all. In a phrase = frictionless high quality. > > Joe Corticada - our day to day lead - kept us up to date on progress and found creative ways to complete the project ahead of schedule (under 3 months). Amanda Cook helped us bring our design to life ensuring it balanced both aesthetics and function. Mike Drohan helped us spend our budget where it mattered most (custom door - still in love with it!), while balancing high quality lower cost windows. > > As someone who has gone through other remodels and acted as a pseudo GM, I can tell you I will never go back. This team delivered, did so as a team, and gave us a very high quality product that will produce memories for ages. Our little guy is already obsessed. **★★★★★ — Sam, Sept. 2025** > Monk's was amazing to work with! They designed and constructed a beautiful back deck that was wheelchair accessible. They also helped us with obtaining the permits required by our town. **★★★★★ — Thaddeus Hale, Aug. 2025** > "We recently hired Monk's Home Improvements for our kitchen remodel, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. The team was professional, responsive, and always kept us updated on the progress. The craftsmanship and attention to detail really stood out, and the final result exceeded our expectations. We would definitely work with them again." **★★★★★ — HU-990332647, April 2025** > Had some interior rooms painted and Monks was timely, clean and neat and professional! Would definitely recommend them for any home improvements! **★★★★★ — Bill Warner, April 2025** > The experience with Monk’s was very good. > Both Ward Malnak and Gustavo Lopez are true professionals, good communicators, caring and detailed. > Work was done both inside and outside. > We will have them back for more. **★★★★★ — HU-969732636, March 2025** > Recently completed master bathroom renovation with Monks team and they did a pretty good job. > Cristina from the studio was very thoughtful during the design phase. She showed lot of pictures on latest trends, material options, cost implications etc. and helped us to finalize the design. > As project manager Vincent kept up updated throughout the duration of the project and Alonso's team completed the work to our satisfaction. > The entire team was excellent in replying to phone calls and text messages. **★★★★★ — Patricia ARd, Feb. 2025** > Monk's replaced portions of our ever crumbling Victorian front porch. They did fine carpentry, matching the rest of the porch with all its detail, perfectly. They also are very good with follow up on every project they've done for us. **★★★★★ — HU-256676261, Dec. 2024** > Robert Farley of Monk’s Home Improvements worked with my wife and me to develop scope of work to replace a french exterior door and five widows. The experience was comfortable and efficient. After listening to our conceptual scope, Robert produced design specs and drawings that matched our material needs and budget within an hour. > > This experience was considerably superior to those of other vendors and made our decision to choose Monk’s simple. After agreeing to the proposal, we were given ample opportunity to confirm every detail of the design leading to a successful project. We would recommend Robert to our friends and family for similar projects. **★★★★★ — AG, Nov. 2024** > I don't want to write much, except they are great company with great people. I hope they continue to do great work. **★★★★★ — KMNJ, Oct. 2024** > Monk's replaced our deck door, put in new kitchen and living room floors, and painted. It looks amazing. I wish we had done it years ago. It feels like a brand new kitchen. They were very professional and left the house spotless. The painting lines are perfect especially the trim. Jon managed our project and was great to work with. He listened to what we wanted and offered us all of our options. He accommodated all of our requests. Angel helped us pick out materials. He listened to what we were looking for and walked us through our choices. He worked with me to find the perfect floor color. Great experience start to finish! **★★★★★ — HU-663532663, Oct. 2024** > Everything on our project could not have flowed more smoothly. It was all easy - from getting a quote, to selecting a start date and then having the work completed in the expected timeframe. > Ward, Gustavo, Justin and Sandro deserve the utmost praise for their skill, professionalism, courtesy and respect. These gentlemen were simply delightful to have in our home. They were meticulous about everything - even cleaning our driveway before they left on the last day. > We couldn't be happier their work. We are so glad we chose Monk's and highly recommend them! **★★★★★ — S. Tonking, Aug. 2024** > Joey V. and team expertly handled a bathroom renovation in 9 days which was a full gut job down to the floor boards, plumbing, electrical, install, tiling and painting. They did an excellent job; I'd highly recommend Monks and Joey. **★★★★★ — Roberto Aldworth, Aug. 2024** > Monk's completely remodeled two bathrooms, extensively renovated our kitchen, and performed minor updates in another bathroom. Marien N. and her team, led by Rafael, executed the project developed with Amanda C. from Monk's Design Studio flawlessly. Marien's on-site presence and dedication were instrumental in overcoming project challenges. Her ability to find creative solutions, often in collaboration with Amanda, ensured the project met our expectations. Marien’s strong leadership and technical expertise were evident in her management of the crew. I am confident in recommending Marien and her team for future projects and look forward to collaborating with her again. **★★★★★ — jeanteam, Aug. 2024** > We were in a bind and Monk's came through. They had our entire new house painted within a few days. They were clean, professional and did a great job. George was very responsive and Ziggy made sure to check in every day. Definitely recommend. **★★★★★ — syerov, Aug. 2024** > The team at Monk's Home Improvements really impressed us with their promptness and professionalism. Despite some weather-related challenges, we were able to get our deck repaired and stained in a manner that was painless and efficient. The staff were friendly and professional at all times and, most important of all, we're really happy with the quality of work that they delivered. The team stayed in contact with us over the period of the job and there were clear, open channels of communication which made the whole experience a really good one. I would recommend Monk's Home Improvements under the leadership of Mike Mina without any hesitation. Thanks, Mike and Team! **★★★★★ — HU-701551878, July 2024** > Kurt, at Monk’s, was responsive from our initial meeting when we received our consultation and bid for our home’s interior painting job. We were introduced to the foremen, Huibel, before the start and were able to confirm paint colors, finish and other job details like the start time the crew would be expected. The crew were careful with our furniture, covered everything well and used clean drop cloths. We knew what to expect and our experience was easy and the results are amazing. They worked quietly and were done with the job on time. The spaces look brand new and the painting completely refreshed the feel of our whole house. We would definitely recommend Monk’s and this team. **★★★★★ — HU-246925876, July 2024** > This is the second time I've used Monk's Home Improvements, and again I have to give them two-thumbs up in all categories. This job included carpentry and interior painting. > Polite and helpful front-desk people, easy to talk to job evaluators, (this time it was Trevor Wilson and Gerald). > Excellent workmanship, left the jobsite very clean. > I would definitely use them again. **★★★★★ — Sara, June 2024** > I used Monk's a few years ago for my kitchen reno and was so pleased with their work. I recently needed a bedroom painted and crown moulding replaced, and called them back in. Mike Mina was very helpful and the guys did a great job. Onto the next project! **★★★★★ — Todd Krell, June 2024** > Monks did power washing and painting at my house again. I have used them 8-10 times already for big jobs including entire house painting and small jobs such as painting one room. I have also used their carpentry for many different tasks. Each time, the job was perfect. > Jason, who does estimates, is prompt and efficient. He is easy to talk to, and extremely reliable. The quality of the work is fantastic. My house still looks great 8 years after painting. Their power washing and carpentry are also excellent. This is the only company I would ever use if I needed painting, power washing or home improvements. I give them my highest recommendation. **★★★★★ — HU-650395690, June 2024** > Monks provided a competitive estimate, and once accepted, they completed my walk-in shower renovation project ahead of the estimated time frame. The shower is beautiful and better than expected. I had difficulty finding a good reliable contractor for my shower renovation, some were no-shows, I’m so glad I found Monks! **★★★★★ — Susana MacLean, June 2024** > Jason Solomon's crew at Monk's did a fantastic job of power washing and staining our large wooden deck. They were quick, detail-oriented, and responsive. The deck looks wonderful and the price of the job was very reasonable. I highly recommend Monk's Home Improvement. **★★★★★ — Rachel Weber, June 2024** > Excellent job by Monks on our new entry door! Roberto ensured perfect measurements which made for an flawless install by the team lead by Fernando. Thank you! **★★★★★ — HU-5199924059, May 2024** > Ward is a rare breed who goes far to transcend the transactional service. He takes the time to know us as customers, our preferences and taste, offer his expertise and experience, and go miles extra to make sure we’re happy at the end. The relationship does not end when the service is done. Thanks Ward! **★★★★★ — Debbie, May 2024** > This is the second time I have invited Monks and Ward to quote a project in my house. Previously Monks painted and installed flooring in my house which turned out fantastic. This time we wanted to convert our covered porch into a mudroom. After receiving his quote (which was very reasonable) we met Vince as Project Manager and his foreman, Alonzo. Vince coordinated the project including inspections. Alonzo and his crew built the room. Start to finish it was a great experience. I would recommend Monks and will recommend Monks to my family and friends for all of their renovation.needs. **★★★★★ — Sara Minard, May 2024** > Monk's is exceptional. I was so impressed by Alberto and John's professionalism, flexibility, communications, and how they managed their crew and the timelines. They minimized disruption for us as much as possible. The final product, after a month of sanding, scraping, priming, carpentry and then two coats of paint, is truly extraordinary. My two hundred year old home looks brand new! I am so grateful for their work, the attention to detail was unparalleled, and their willingness to do things even outside the scope, like fixing my gate latch, have put them in a class all their own. Alberto was on site almost everyday with the crew, responding immediately to my questions or requests, and ensuring my voice in every decision being made. They also stayed on budget despite all the unforeseen issues that needed to be resolved so I was really thankful for that. Overall, they exceeded my expectations and I am so thrilled to know my five-generation family home will be set now for another 25 years. Thank you Alberto and John! **★★★★★ — jmbplaveczky, May 2024** > Great experience start to finish! Everyone at Monks is friendly and efficient. The price for interior painting was very competitive- and they did a WONDERFUL job!!! They did most of the interior of our house, it took four days and they cleaned up every night. The workers were so friendly and really committed to making sure that we were happy with their work. They were even really nice to our dog!! I appreciated that they scheduled me with firm dates and stuck to the schedule. I definitely recommend Monks to anyone who needs painting done!! **★★★★★ — rbroadbent, April 2024** > The exterior of our home was recently painted by Monk’s Home Improvements. From the start, Jason presented a comprehensive description of the job and fair estimate. Our foreman, Andy, made sure all aspects of our contract were met. The workers arrived on time each day and met the established timeline. They were neat, thorough and efficient. Every aspect of the job was done well, from power washing to our final inspection of the job. Andy stated frequently that our satisfaction was their main goal. Both Jason and Andy made sure they were available to us at all times throughout the project. As you can surmise, we were very happy with the end result. **★★★★★ — betty stringas, April 2024** > Matt and crew did a great job with our kitchen renovation. They finished job on time, on budget and left our home clean when project was finished. I would highly recommend Monk's and would use them again if need for another project. **★★★★★ — Roberta Lytton, April 2024** > We have been extremely happy with Monks. He is timely, professional and his rates are reasonable. We have been extremely happy with Monks. He is timely, professional and his rates are reasonable. **★★★★★ — Sharon Corbett, April 2024** > Small kitchen renovation went smoothly from start to finish. Received valuable assistance with design and products, provided with detailed steps and timing, and professional installation. All the staff members we encountered were not only professional and knowledgeable but very friendly and easy to work with. We are very happy with our finished project and would look to Monk’s again for future projects. **★★★★★ — John Ladyzinski, April 2024** > Quality work, good price, fast turnaround, and no surprises. I highly recommend Gustavo and Ward - they'll get the job done. **★★★★★ — Ida Picker, April 2024** > I have used Monk's for multiple projects over the years. Just recently had my bedroom painted which was long overdue. Jared and his team are great to work with. **★★★★★ — HU-99238406, March 2024** > I received absolutely amazing service from George and Ziggy. My little project was there for a few years but I wan never able to find the best team to do the job. With the team from Monks, it was completed in 2 days with 120% satisfaction!!! It was easy, efficient and great quality, I can only recommend the team with nothing else! At the end of the day, they are all great and nice professionals, thinking about you as the customer as their first priority , highly highly recommended!!! Robert **★★★★★ — Laura T, March 2024** > Working with Monks was an absolute pleasure. Our full bathroom renovation needed to be completely wheelchair accessible, so we’re very happy we chose Monks! Starting in the design showroom, Lucia Mastronardi carefully hand-selected several styles of tile and coordinating cabinets to help us narrow down our overall design, all the way down to the accessible hardware. Her 3D renderings illustrated the project beautifully, which made any further choices so easy. Once we’d decided on our design, we loved that our project team came back a second time to double-check all measurements before ordering materials or beginning demolition. We also agreed to a very thoroughly priced out invoice prior to starting work. Joe Corticada headed up project management along with Jose Roca. They were both so helpful and very respectful of our home, keeping us updated throughout our project. We had a few unexpected changes to the project scope due to our slab foundation style, but they handled those issues quickly and efficiently. We were able to live comfortably alongside construction as the team made sure to lay down drop cloths, tape off closets, and clean up each day. Every time we had questions, Joe was easy to reach and always put our minds at ease. Our finished bathroom is everything we’d imagined! We have a gorgeous roll-in shower and accessible floating vanity with beautiful modern tile and accessories throughout. We will absolutely call Monks for our next project! **★★★★★ — Deb and Bob, March 2024** > We recently discovered hidden water damage in our game room. We called Monk's and they responded right away and helped us assess the damage. We worked with a team, including Ward, Bill, Jamie, Raul and Gustavo, to make the necessary repairs. Everyone was very professional, hardworking and helpful and listened to our requests for enhancements and made those happen. Each day the area was cleaned with excess debris taken away. Communication was excellent. We had a great experience and how highly recommend Monk's for your renovation needs. **★★★★★ — Kevin H, March 2024** > We recently retained Monk’s to update our bathroom. We have found there is often a lot of anxiety associated with a project like this but Monk’s has a process of discussion that ensures that they and the customer have a complete understanding of the requirements and the costs. > > On the day the actual work was to begin we met Nelson Santiago and his team of craftsmen. Nelson was the coordinator assigned to us. He kept us well informed about the various stages from demolition to installation through to completion. He would also ensure the quality of the work every day and discuss with us any problems along the way as will happen with a home that is one hundred years old. He also scheduled the electrician who came in to install the exhaust/heating fan which also required some upgraded wiring. Having one person as a point of contact is the best thing about Monk’s service as he is your eyes and ears and Nelson made us feel quite comfortable that nothing was overlooked. > > We were very happy with our Monk’s experience from the selection of materials to the high quality of workmanship and the excellent communication. **★★★★★ — Jean, Feb. 2024** > Roberto (Sensitive Information Hidden) did a great job assessing wood damage in order for me to secure a mortgage. I'm very grateful for all his help. **★★★★★ — Jacqueline A., Feb. 2024** > We recently had our master bedroom renovated by Monks and we couldn't be happier with the results. The project manager, Bill Buckner and his crew did an outstanding job from start to finish. Their attention to detail, professionalism, and communication were exceptional. The final outcome exceeded our expectations, and we highly recommend them for any renovation projects. We will definitely use them again! **★★★★★ — Lagichen jacob, Feb. 2024** > Monks did an outstanding job in renovating our two bathrooms and putting a new floor for the attic. Mike Mina was the point man from Monks that we worked with. He is so professional and made sure that we were completely satisfied with the work done. It is very easy to talk to him and he went out of the way to get things done. Casey was our designer and she did an amazing job designing the bathrooms. She comes up with great colors and materials. I would highly recommend Monks for any home renovation project and I would definitely call them for future jobs. **★★★★★ — Suzanne, Feb. 2024** > I am now a repeat customer, both of Monk's and of Matthew (Sensitive Information Hidden) as GC. I had them come back to gut renovate the entryway to my home from ugly fake wood paneling to beautiful, crisp, clean drywall, including removing a half wall and installing a new closet. > > I chose this company over the many (many, many, omg) companies and GC's I interviewed, because they are all in-house. Work done on your home is work done by employees, and they have all trades there and ready to go. They are also able to order all materials and store them until all are in-hand, and do not start until they have the materials and staff and time to get the job done quickly and very well. Every time I had a question or a concern, it was addressed quickly and to my satisfaction by the GC on my project, Matthew (Sensitive Information Hidden). One year later, the work is still pristine and functioning exactly as promised. When some tile in the kitchen cracked, it was noticed and repairs/replacements in process before I even noticed. Absolutely everyone employed here is professional and good at what they do. 10/10 will use them again. **★★★★★ — HU-168741543, Feb. 2024** > Monk’s was every customer’s dream contractor. From initial estimates to design advice to project completion, I was guided through every step of the way. Project Managers Joey (Sensitive Information Hidden) and Garrett (Sensitive Information Hidden) kept the project running smoothly. David and Esteban were hands on daily and kept me in the loop. Everything was clean and everyone punctual. Would highly recommend Monk’s in the future! **★★★★ — Don F, Feb. 2024** > To Kurt Becker and Robert Farley (2/13/2024) > We contracted with Monk's to complete various first floor (living room, dining room, kitchen, powder room, foyer, and hallway) upgrades including the installation of new baseboard and shoe molding, crown molding, and chair rails. A new steel door was installed at our garage entry vestibule. New recessed lighting was installed in the kitchen and dining room. Finally, the walls were repaired and painted. Huibel and his crew were efficient, meticulous, and did very good work. We love the results. Thank you Monk's. **★★★★★ — mepspoliner, Feb. 2024** > I am thrilled with the job Monk’s did on our powder room and hall bathroom! Cortney Tripodi guided us through ordering all the items that satisfied our needs, style and budget. I don’t think we could have done it without her expertise. And she was pivotal in seamlessly resolving product issues !! Our product manager Vincent Pileggi always came by the job to resolve any issues and keep the job going. The workmen were also great, skilled and responsible. **★★★★★ — Dave Schwartz, Feb. 2024** > There are many home remodelers in New Jersey. Monk's makes the project so easy. This was our second project with Monk's. The most appreciated benefit to working with Monk's is that they show up when they promise. I did not have to call and beg them to complete the project. Everything was completed accurately and professionally. I recommend Monk's to all my friends, family and neighbors. **★★★★★ — HU-286488735, Jan. 2024** > We recently had windows installed by Monks and chose them because of the positive experience we've had with previous projects. We have found them to be professional, responsive and dependable. From our first meeting with Robert, who patiently answered all our questions, to Ward, who efficiently oversaw the project, to Raul, who was in charge as the work was done, we have nothing but praise. > It was easy to communicate with Ward; his quick responses allowed things to proceed smoothly and his guidance was appreciated. > Raul and his team worked efficiently. We appreciated his communicating updates, keeping us abreast of schedule if there were any changes. > We have found Monks to be accurate in their assessment of when a project will begin and how long it will take to complete **★★★★★ — Ameeta Jakate, Sept. 2023** > Loved working with Kurt. He is professional and easy to talk to. He was available throughout the deck job and I loved that. He also offered help on things that weren't officially a part of thr deck.job. I loved how he went above and beyond with his services. I have more projects with him and look forward to working with him on those as well. Thanks for being there Kurt! **★★★★★ — dbeckerd, Aug. 2023** > Replaced deck. The crew did a wonderful job, were neat and considerate, and we’re very pleased with how quickly they finished. Great experience from start to finish! **★★★★★ — Kelly Wood, July 2023** > We had our mudroom and bathroom renovated and we are very happy with the results. Bill Buckner and Oscar Ortiz’s crew were very professional and timely. The transformations to both rooms were much needed and I am glad that I selected Monk’s Home Improvements. **★★★★★ — Alicia Weisbrot, July 2023** > We returned to the area and were thrilled to be able to work with George Day again. We closed on our house in the beginning of June and planned to move in at the end of the month. We had all new heating and cooling put in which meant an oil tank, furnace and baseboard heating had to be removed. I needed George and his crew to clean things up and put things back together before we moved in. George and the painting crew, (headed by Ziggy) and the carpenters (headed by Lazero) translated all my plans and vision into reality. > The whole house was painted with new baseboards and crown molding added. The carpenters built: 3 walls of shelving to convert a small windowless room in my finished basement into a massive storage closet, a cabinet to cover the sump pump now to be used to fold clothes on with the added benefit of shelves for storage underneath and a beautiful set of sliding doors for our bedroom closet that were an adaptation of Japanese shoji doors. For every problem, a solution was found and resolved cleanly and expertly. Communication and collaboration was ongoing. We moved in and immediately felt we were home! The gold standard!! **★★★★★ — eliz923, July 2023** > We just remodeled our main bathroom with Monks. We are so happy with the outcome and with the entire process from design to construction. The staff at the showroom and on the job site were professional and respectful and did great work. We live in an older home with some challenges and attention was paid to details. We will definitely recommend them to friends and family and look forward to future projects with them. **★★★★★ — Robin Ince, July 2023** > Outstanding experience w/this company! Nelson has quite the team! We did a full kitchen reno (going from 1950’s to present!). We knocked the wall down between the kitchen & the dining room…what a difference! The team started exactly as planned, & finished right on schedule! There was never a day when work was not being done. Inspections were seamless! They were friendly, knowledgeable, respectful & neat. They were patient when we had to locate our cat so he wouldn’t escape! (He’s still here!) > Every aspect of the project was done with precision & attention to detail, including a beautiful painting job of he new area as well as the entire first floor up into the hallway (& the bathroom). > We cannot say enough good things about Monk’s & definitely recommend them for your next home project! **★★★★★ — lawrencegmorris, June 2023** > I have used Monk's for multiple projects ranging from room painting to a major kitchen renovation and I have been highly satisfied with the outcome of each. The work crews are very detail oriented and the project manager (George) has excellent communication skills. I highly recommend Monk's. **★★★★★ — Jessica Mezic, June 2023** > We worked with Jaclyn during the design process of our kitchen renovation and have been thrilled with the results! Jaclyn took her time and guided us through the whole process from the updated layout to picking out all our materials. She made what could have been an overwhelming process easy and enjoyable. Jaclyn steered us towards items within our budget and continues to keep us posted on the progress of our materials and renovation. She is always quick to respond to any questions we have and has been a great point person for us at Monks. Jaclyn has been a pleasure to work with! **★★★★ — Taylor Forbes, May 2023** > We just used Monks for a bathroom and basement remodel . From the walk through to the end of the project it was easy to work with everyone on the team. Chris Klug was the project manager who was helpful and was able to keep us informed about each stage of the process . Overall we are very happy with the end result . **★★★★★ — Mike W, May 2023** > The experience working with Mike Mina and Monk's was nothing short of excellent. It was a smaller roject for us...We had a relatively new deck with a portion roofed over, and we were looking to install screens to "enclose" the area. Mike came in, spoke with us about our vision, took his measurements and had a quote to us within a couple of days. We were fortunate enough to be able to schedule the work the following week. The job that was anticipated to take 4 days took two...Mike checked in with us at every step of the process. We could not be happier with the result. Would absolutely recommend them to anyone! **★★★★★ — Viviane Araujo, May 2023** > Monk's helped me with a small project in my home's second-floor. A hallway was built to create a walk through from the original side of the house to a bonus room that was built by previous owners. The project included redoing closets and installing closet systems, refinishing floors and painting walls. > From working with the showroom designer Jacklyn, project manager Chris Klug, all the way to painters, carpenters and floor crew, the experience couldn't be more satisfying. > I am now looking to have my kitchen remodeled and adding a guest room in the basement. **★★★★★ — Marie McGurk, May 2023** > Monk's did a bathroom remodel and repairs in a second bathroom due to a leak. The team, managed by Nelson, was professional, responsive, and took care to make sure the design, materials, and construction were high quality. **★★★★★ — HU-30686994562, May 2023** > Highly recommend. Great experience, great products, fantastic communication from Alex about timing/delays. Our windows had a delay (not caused by Monks) but Alex handled the issue, escalated it and got us our windows quicker than expected! **★★★★★ — Diane Seuffert, May 2023** > I have worked with Monks on three remodels and several painting jobs, most recently a full kitchen remodel. I have had the good fortune of having Ryan, for the estimate, being the first person to meet on each job, he’s very, pleasant, knowledgeable and professional. Cortney was extremely patient and confident when we worked together on the design. She has great ideas and helped from the initial design through the final construction. My onsite project manager was Chris, he was pleasant, knowledgeable, and responsive. He made sure there were no shortcuts. I can’t emphasize enough the benefit of of working with a one stop shop. So much stress is relieved when there is a crew in your house and you have a single point of contact to manage everything. P.S. The tile guy was awesome. **★★★★★ — L&R Interiors, May 2023** > Matthew Ayers and Monk's did a great job renovating our Master Bath Room. Designers did a great job creating computer generated artist renderings. It was great to see how fixtures, tile, and paint would look. Work crews were very punctual, excellent craftsmen, and extremely polite. They put down drop cloths everywhere and picked them up at night. We especially appreciated how they cleaned the workspace every day to keep down the dust. Most importantly, Matthew was here every day, sometimes twice a day, making sure everything ran smoothly. He did a great job quality controlling all aspects of the renovation. If we weren't happy with something, he did everything he could to make it right. He even detected small imperfections and corrected them before we mentioned it. I would highly recommend Monks and Matthew Ayers for any home renovation. **★★★★★ — andrewpreston22, May 2023** > I couldn't be happier with the work performed by Monk's on my small remodel projects this spring. From consultation, design, to execution - everything is top notch. Ward and Bill specifically were fantastic to work with. I will definitely be using them again at some point. **★★★★★ — Ann, April 2023** > We recently used Monk’s for a guest bathroom gut and re-do. We decided to go with them, as our neighbors used them for a master bathroom and were quite happy. > We called them and they were immediately responsive, making an appointment to come over for an initial walk-through. From there they provided an extremely thorough and detailed estimate. Based on that, along with our neighbor’s review, we decided to use them. > Well, we could not have been happier. Their communication was excellent and clear. Everything was documented. The amount of information provided to us was incredible. There was nothing left to the imagination. It was all extremely comprehensive and transparent. Any questions we had were answered immediately and clarified. There was also no problem if we wanted to buy some of the materials/fixtures ourselves (which we did). Zero pressure to buy through them, although anything bought through them they would guarantee. > They were extremely prompt, always arriving exactly when they said they would. They were courteous and kind. No question of ours was too trivial, too dumb, too naïve. Everything was treated with respect. Issues identified along the way were IMMEDIATELY corrected without question. This was truly a partnership, and they went out of their way to make sure we were happy. We were consulted throughout the project for anything they were unsure of or for anything needing further discussion. We left them alone in our house without reservation and felt at ease in doing so. They covered floors and cleaned up every night after themselves. > The project manager, Chris, was our go-to guy throughout the project. He approached our questions and concerns calmly and ensured our issues were immediately resolved. He knows his stuff and shared his knowledge freely. He took an active approach and checked in frequently with us. Our crew was headed up by a gentleman named Ivan, who could not have been more respectful, helpful and willing. He and his team’s work was meticulous and any issues that arose (yes, issues will always come up in large projects, so don’t freak out!) were dealt with and corrected immediately with no questions asked. We felt all the way through the process that they had a vested interest in the success of our new bathroom! > All in all we could not be happier with our beautiful new bathroom and we look forward to using Monk’s in the future. **★★★★★ — HU-861508167, April 2023** > We have had such a great experience with Monk and their team. From the moment we called to enquire they have been great to work with, helpful, friendly and knowledgable. And the team that completed the work were excellent; Garret C our Project Manager was extremely helpful and there every step of the way for our project of new basement floor, fixing of staircase and painting. I can not speak highly enough about Luis and his team who carried out the work, fast, clean, considerate and the standard of workman ship is first class. If you need any work doing on your house call Monk asap. **★★★★★ — Thomas Umrath, April 2023** > Matt Ayers and his crew did an excellent job gutting a 40-year-old bathroom and replacing it with a new shower, toilet, countertops, sinks, flooring and tiles. They always showed up when expected, were friendly, courteous and professional, and did quality work. All drop cloths, supplies and tools were removed from the job area each day and stowed away. Matt visited or followed up by phone or email on an ongoing basis. The only minor hitch was that the external tiling vendor sent a box of slightly warped shower tiles. This was corrected immediately with no inconvenience or added cost to me. The job quote was a bit of sticker shock initially but over time I realized you get what you pay for, especially after hearing about negative experiences friends have had with other home remodelers. Overall, very happy. **★★★★★ — HU-471531627, April 2023** > We had a great experience with Monks! Luis and his team, and project manager Matthew Ayers were super attentiv, worked fast and clean and with great attention to details. Our kitchenlook beautiful, and we are getting endless compliments! **★★★★★ — Jonathan T, April 2023** > Monk's did a bathroom renovation for us last winter. They are two companies, one doing design and procurement, the other construction. > > Our contract specified a substantial renovation, but the shower seemed to be in reasonable condition and was to be left as is. However, the shower subfloor, built 30 years ago, was found to be rotten due to water penetration. We therefore had to add rebuilding the shower to the contract. This added a couple of weeks to the length of the project. Monk's originally predicted 4 to 6 weeks, and they finished in 2 months, including the unplanned shower. It's fair to say they got the job done on time. > > We started working with Jaclyn, the Monk's designer on our project, in summer 2022, and scheduled the project start for January 2, partly because of the ongoing supply chain disruption at the time. Monk's takes care of all the ordering and procuring. and does not start a project until all required materials are in their warehouse. The customer pays retail prices, and Monk's captures the difference between retail and wholesale. > > We had a contemporary style in mind, and Jaclyn quickly incorporated our preferences into her thinking, providing examples and variations for us to choose from, and producing computer-generated images to give us an idea of what the finished design would look like. She was always very responsive and pleasant to work with. For example, as noted above we had an unplanned addition to the contract. Jaclyn was quick to advise on compatible shower tiles and fixtures, and procured them within a week or so. > > We liked all the Monk’s employees we encountered. There was one exception to this pattern, an electrical subcontractor who was not a Monk’s employee. He may have been technically competent, but his behavior left much to be desired. Other than that, we were happy to have the Monk’s team working in our home. > > As we discovered, a major bathroom renovation is not a simple matter. It requires a team effort (including the client). Our project manager, Vincent, was likeable and meticulous. He stopped by most days, and would typically arrive a few minutes early and appear at our door exactly on time. His coordination of the hands-on team went smoothly and efficiently, and the team worked extremely hard without cutting corners. The skill level was impressive. Overall, a job well done. **★★★★★ — HU-697705426, April 2023** > Awesome team work, from scheduling an estimate, through project completion. Roberto came to complete the estimate on time and completed the quote at the appointment. I have completed three projects the Roberto and Tito the foreman, who supervises an experienced team. I look forward to my next project with Monks. **★★★★★ — Mary Reach, April 2023** > Started our project yesterday! > Must say I’m impressed. > Our 85 year old attic steps finally gave out and we had to replace them. They were the best but unfortunately the company no longer exists. > So Monks recommended the best alternative and they were installed today. > So far construction as well as scheduling has been a great experience. > We still have painting to be completed tomorrow but I must say that everything has gone well so far! Easy to work with, professional, efficient, and clean! > I would work with this company again! **★★★★★ — HU-738609937, April 2023** > Finishing up a renovation with Monk . Our project manager Nelson Santiago has been super helpful with making sure everything has gone smoothly. When there have been any issues he has been there to work them out and make them right. I recommend Nelson and monk for your home renovation needs. **★★★★★ — Tom Saraisky, March 2023** > Highly Recommend. Roberto and Tito were great to work with. They communicated and were very punctual. They painted the Exterior of my House. **★★★★★ — Katherine Rodgers, March 2023** > Monk's, under the direction of Project Manager, Chris Klug, did a fabulous job on our new kitchen!! > This is the final week of our journey, and throughout, Chris and his crew have been extremely punctual, professional, and more than willing to "go the extra Mile" to accommodate our questions and concerns. I also can't say enough great things about our designer, Kala Rae, also at Monk's. Her artistic talent and design capability saved us hours and hours of decision making as to how to maximize our space in the most up to the minute style. Rely on Chris Klug and Kala Rae for your next home improvement project. You too, will be extremely pleased! **★★★★★ — Sheryl DellaFera, March 2023** > Jason was professional and very easy to work with. What most impressed me is how quickly he would get back to me event 5 years later when I had an issue. He immediately responded and with Andy's help came up with a creative solution and fixed the problem! **★★★★★ — Kae, March 2023** > We just had Monk's complete a kitchen renovation and we are thrilled with the final result! We had a wall knocked down, cabinets repainted, floors redone, and full paint job in the kitchen and dining room. The price was reasonable and the service was outstanding. We loved having Chris Klug as our project manager. Chris let us know in advance exactly what to expect each day the workers were on the job. He was diligent in following up and addressed every request we had until the completion of the project. We are thoroughly enjoying our new space! **★★★★★ — Tess F, March 2023** > The team at Monk’s Home Improvement were fantastic! Roberto is knowledgeable, patience and timely from start to finish. I truly appreciated his guidance and attention to detail. Roberto lead me through the process step by step then introduced me to Joe and Jose who executed all of my wishes resulting in a stunning updated kitchen. I couldn’t be happier! **★★★★★ — katyannhorgan, March 2023** > I recently hired Monk’s to repair flood damage caused to my finished basement from a pipe burst. They cut out and replaced a lot of dry wall and insulation, replaced molding, made any other necessary repairs and painted. We could not have been happier with experience from beginning to end. Mike Mina went above and beyond to ensure the whole project went smoothly and Franz and his team did impeccable work. We have had many projects done on our home- both big and small. I can honestly say, none of them have been so worry free. Pricing was very fair and it was completed beautifully in the exact amount of time and for the exact amount of money discussed. They were almost too good to be true! I will certainly be reaching out to Monks for any of our future needs and will be recommending them to everyone. Thank you, Mike, Franz and team! **★★★★★ — John Hagedorn, March 2023** > Superbly run bathroom and kitchen projects with Monk's and their professional team. My bathroom was done recently and came out with flying colors! Monk's assigns a project manager who will guide the project from start to finish. Matthew Ayers was my project manager for the bathroom remodel. He listened to and addressed any adjustments I asked for. The team of workers who did the work were excellent with doing the right things for the project and conferred with Matthew as needed to make changes. > > You can't go wrong with Monk's Home Improvements and the team they assemble. **★★★★★ — shopinlo, March 2023** > I used Monk's to change my counter tops and install a tile backsplash, new sink, and faucet. The project manager, Matt Ayers, was terrific. He kept us informed every step of the way and always responded promptly to our requests. The men doing the work were timely, professional and courteous and cleaned up every day. I'd recommend Monks and would hire them again! **★★★★★ — David Woodhull, March 2023** > Hello Ty, > > I know how you value customer feedback and how important it is for running a successful business. > > I would like to take a few minutes say how pleased Marilyn and I were with Matthew as our project manager. > > A little background on myself. > In my previous life I was a graphic designer with account representative duties. I know how challenging it can be as a liason between clients and the people you work with. You have to make sure the customer feels he can trust you and you have to keep things in line with the company. > > As stated previously, our kitchen came with a few challenges, some obvious and some no so. Matthew met these challenges head on. Being well organized and prepared Matthew was able to focus on the big picture all the while coordinating with electricians, plumbers, flooring refinishers, cabinet installers, ect. > > Throughout the process Matthew kept us informed of any possible problems and was always available to discuss any issues we may have. > > In our experience we believe Matthew has shown to be a very good project manager with strong attention to detail, knowledgeable on the scope of the project and an engaging personality. > > As with all the people we have dealt with from Monks, you can be sure that Matthew is a fine representative of your company. > > Sincerely, Dave Woodhull **★★★★★ — HU-636643560, March 2023** > Monks just completed our Kitchen renovation and they did an excellent job! This is the second time we've used them for a big project and they are the only contractor we will use moving forward. They are responsive, professional and run a home renovation like a commercial operation. All the contractors and subs are friendly and personable. > > The biggest difference between Monks and other contractors is that they assist you in the event you need to make changes on the fly. Things always come up during construction and they are always accountable and never contentious. > > Denise helped us design the entire Kitchen and picked out amazing finishes. > > Bill Buckner was our project manager and was very communicative and on top of everything. We texted daily coordinating the work to be done the next day. > > Jaime Hidalgo and his crew are so talented and efficient. They did the whole kitchen in 5 weeks! **★★★★★ — Bob and Cindy, March 2023** > We recently had Monks completely redo one bathroom, and are under contract for the second one. Their impressive Morristown showroom first attracted us to their company. The finished product was exponentially greater! Matthew Ayers and his crew was very efficient, meticulous, and clean throughout the project. When some unanticipated plumbing and electrical issues occurred, Matthew immediately made contact with the necessary people, and the situations were quickly resolved. Whenever we had questions and scheduling issues, Matthew responded quickly to our phone calls/emails/texts. We never felt stress during the entire process. I am certain that we could have saved a lot of money by using another company to do the work. However, we are convinced that the dollars were well spent. This is why we will be seeing Matthew and Monks again for our next bathroom redo. Our dog Salem is equally excited to see the Monk's crew again, because he got along great with Matthew throughout the project. **★★★★★ — HU-928288036, March 2023** > I would highly recommend Monks for exterior painting. Kurt was very professional and thorough with the estimate and was happy to answer our questions. Greiven did a nice job painting and cleaned up after himself when the job was complete. **★★★★★ — Sean, Feb. 2023** > Amazing service. Clean, friendly and easy to work with. Our foreman Esteban was outstanding. Highly recommend for any home improvement needs.. **★★★★★ — Jill B., Feb. 2023** > We hired Monk's to do painting and flooring work on the entire second floor at my mom's house. Kurt did a great job of prepping us for what to expect in terms of timelines and process. Our foreman Huibel did a wonderful job of keeping my mom informed on a daily basis of his progress. He and his crew did excellent, quality work and my mom was super happy with the finished product. Monk's has done a lot of work for us in the past in addition to the flooring and painting, including wainscotting, window and door install, as well as a new composite deck. We are hiring them again to paint the interior of the garage and to install some workbenches and shelving for storage. We can't wait for this work to be done as it's going to make a huge difference. Highly recommend them! **★★★★★ — HU-324805933, Feb. 2023** > Monks did a great job with our kitchen remodel and we just finished some updates to the bedroom. Nelson Santiago was a great communicator and his crew was reliable. My wife and I are very happy with their work **★★★★★ — Debra Reilly, Feb. 2023** > Shout out to Kurt Becker at Monk's Home Improvements. I've called on Kurt for home projects over many years. He always responds promptly when I call him. Kurt is friendly, courteous and easy to work with. The crew is professional and dedicated. I'll continue to call on them for future projects. **★★★★★ — Molly Higgins Interior Design LLC, Feb. 2023** > Monks painted my entire house that we recently moved into. The quote was fair and there was good communication about start time and work days and crew. They are happy to add other small handyman projects along the way, which is very helpful. They are very open to feedback if you have any questions or concern and are accountable for a good outcome. Included in the scope of work was painting basement cabinets and a paneled office. For the office, they did a spray technique which it turned out fabulous. I appreciate the responsiveness, friendliness, helpfulness and follow-through of Monks, in particular, George Day. George is professional and knowledgeable and the manager of my projects, which have expanded into three bathrooms for this spring. I also commend Carlos for his painting work along with his crew members. I am an interior designer, and I always refer my clients to Monks for their consideration. **★★★★★ — renee\_yo, Feb. 2023** > We have carried out multiple projects with Monks - new front door, exterior paint, new gutters, porch refinishing and new railings. All have been amazing and Kurt makes sure everything is in line with original expectations. He and the teams are great to work with! **★★★★★ — Blair MacInnes, Feb. 2023** > The design was solid but the construction team was amazing. will use again when we do out kitchen. Efficent, friendsly, leaft evrything neat at the end of the day. Highly recommend. **★★★★★ — Tejal Upadhyay, Feb. 2023** > The team from Monks did an amazing job with installing our French doors. The job took one day and I couldn’t be any more pleased. The carpenter was meticulous and Jason made planning super easy! Thank you so much. **★★★★★ — Judy Hahn, Feb. 2023** > We contracted with Monk's (Morristown office) for a powder room makeover in our townhome. We needed to replace the pedestal sink, toilet and floor tiles, plus paint the walls. The whole process was easy, from selecting the materials, scheduling the work, and having the work done and completed within the estimated time and at a reasonable cost. Matthew Ayers and his crew did a fabulous job. The crew showed up every day at 8am, and worked quietly, diligently, and efficiently. Communication with Matthew and the foreman was easy throughout. The tiles are laid perfectly; the paint job is meticulous. The powder room looks fantastic. We could not be more pleased with the outcome, and we highly recommend Monk's, especially if you get Matthew Ayers as a project manager. **★★★★★ — Rigel Millan, Feb. 2023** > My wife and I needed our basement windows replacemed and we had been looking to try Monks out for some time. > > After a very quick initial phone call with Roberto the rest was very streamlined and the job was completed In a professional and timely manner. They treated this small job as a large one and had a full crew working on the task. We will be looking forward to working with Monk’s and Roberto’s team on future renovations for our home. **★★★★★ — Arianna, Feb. 2023** > My husband and I hired Monk's to complete our master bathroom renovation and could not have been happier with our experience. Kalarae provided amazing design assistance and truly helped bring our vision to life. The entire process has been clear, straightforward and streamlined. 10/10! **★★★★★ — Mukundan Srinivasan, Feb. 2023** > Can you say TOTAL TRANSFORMATION !!! The Monk's team led by Bill did an outstanding job renovating our kitchen and back entry way. The team was courteous, professional and communicated regularly with us. This was the first time we did anything at this scale (a complete gutting and rebuild of the kitchen) and the Monk's team answered all my many questions and helped set my mind at ease. > They were very clear on what could be done and provided great recommendations and guidance (These cabinet, fixture, backsplash and wall colors should work well together. Update the lighting. Don't go for a super powerful range hood - it would be overkill and would require make up air (a new term for me) and additional cost). Starting from the initial review meeting and estimates, meeting with the design consultant, signing off on the contract, and ultimate the execution of the project, the Monk's team did a fantastic job. > Though we ended up purchasing most of the materials from other vendors, the Monk's installation team was quick yet did a wonderful job with the flooring, a new wall, cabinets, painting, plumbing, backsplash, lighting, electrical, repairing the window area, venting range hood to the outside, and removal and reattachment of appliances. > It came together beautifully and we absolutely love the end result. Thank you Monk's. **★★★★★ — HU-758968290, Feb. 2023** > We chose Monk’s for a complete renovation of our 1200 SF condo. We were nervous undertaking a project like this for the first time, but our experience with Monk’s was fantastic from start to finish and has continued to be great post-construction. We chose Monk’s based on great recommendations from family friends who had used them for large-scale projects in the past. They are able to provide complete service from design, material procurement, and project management in an extremely seamless manner, which was one of the main reasons for our decision. > > Our experience started with Casey who was our design consultant at the Monk’s showroom. Casey was fantastic, a pleasure to work with, and designed us a beautiful kitchen. Her recommendations for styles and products went a long way. > > Peter and Robert assisted us with picking out the perfect laminate floor for our redesign. They were extremely knowledgeable about all of the product choices and ultimately helped us get the best price for the floor we wanted. > > We had a tight timeframe to get our project done in under 4 weeks. Once our materials hit the warehouse the project was completed within 3.5 weeks. Project management couldn’t have been better. Our project manager was Joey and our foreman was David. Both were outstanding and extremely professional. They made themselves available daily to discuss any concerns or questions we had regarding the status of the work. They took care of everything including working with our HOA, neighbors, and township to ensure everything went smoothly. Even during Joey’s vacation time, Monk’s assigned Garrett to step-in as project manager. Garrett was fantastic and the project continued very efficiently during Joey's absence. > > Their crews and sub-contractors were always on time, professional, and clean. Monk’s uses ARS Electric Design for a lot of their electrical contracting. Alex, the owner, and his team were fantastic. They came out before the project to install an upgraded electrical panel and ran circuits to ensure everything was ready once Monk’s started work. They even worked closely with us post-construction to ensure some small upgrades were made per request of the town inspector. I would use Alex and his team any time. > > I would recommend Monk’s to anyone for any large or small home project. Their team is extremely experienced and they produce quality work that they stand behind. We will definitely use them and their team for future projects! **★★★★★ — htatosian, Feb. 2023** > Maria and her team did a fantastic paint job in our family room and bathroom. She was able to schedule the job on short notice, and it was completed on time as committed. This was important to us as the holidays and guest arrivals were fast approaching. The crew was very professional and left the work space tidy each day. For the bathroom cabinets, Maria offered a suggestion for the color and it worked out very well. **★★★★★ — Jennifer Dmytriw, Feb. 2023** > We placed an order for Marvin new construction windows with Robert Farley at Monks. Monks will also do the installation, although the windows are not in yet. We went to Monks because they are very reliable and I find them to be trustworthy (we have done other smaller projects with them). Robert Farley helped us through the selection process and updated our estimate with various tweaks as questions and thoughts came up. Robert was a “no pressure” sales person, very friendly, communicative and hard working. When he didn’t know an answer, he found it out and got back to us. We will likely use Monks for other remodeling projects in the future. **★★★★★ — C Genco, Feb. 2023** > We just had our upstairs bathroom gutted and redone through Monk’s. The whole process was great, from the design service with Zoriana Pogorilets to the final punch list. Nelson Santiago and his crew were amazing. We never had a day without someone working the entire time of the renovation. At times there were as many as 3 people working in that tiny space, working to get it done on time. We always knew what was going and who was in the house. They took great care to protect the areas of our house not under construction, keeping the disruption to the smallest area possible. My wife continued to work from home through the entire process. > I’d hire them again and I’d recommend them to anyone with a renovation or repair project. **★★★★★ — surivkind, Jan. 2023** > If you are a perfectionist and demand the best in yourself and others, you need look no further than this incredible company. From start to finish, there is no detail left unattended. My project was far from the easiest because I did not want to replace my cabinets. Several people on the Monk's team said that I would have been crazy to do so. There were other limitations within which whoever undertook the job would have to work as well. Most contractors will not touch a project unless they can gut the entire space and start from scratch. From the beginning, Monk's was willing to treat me as a contributing member of the team. I am a very hands on person and always love learning from each trade that contributes to the final project. From Maria who does the initial interview and measuring to Greg, who comes up with numbers to the penny to sell the job, to Garrett, my project manager to the counter templaters, installers, Monk designers, and consultants, there is nothing and no one I would have changed. My kitchen has been given new life, and I am ecstatic every time I look at the results. **★★★★★ — Meredith Glasser, Jan. 2023** > Our daughter yanked our towel rack off of the wall in our powder room, and we needed repair and painting quickly. The team at Monk's was quick to respond to set up an appointment to see the damage and give us an estimate. Roberto came, gave us the estimate, and was able to schedule his team to get the job done quickly. After the paint dried, we needed some touch ups, and they came right back to make sure everything was perfect. **★★★★★ — HU-792663359, Jan. 2023** > Jason and Andy were great. The removal of the wallpaper and the painting project were completed on time and as promised. Beautiful job. Thanks. **★★★★★ — Carolee Kallmann, Jan. 2023** > Monks renovated our very old bathroom, replacing everything. The one-stop shopping is a real convenience which I greatly appreciated > . Our first contact was Casey Tripoli, a showroom salesperson who helped us select every item. She knows her tile and moved along very, very quickly. The fellow who then came to our house to measure and price was extremely professional and pleasant. Very professional! and knows all aspects of construction. His knowledge sealed the deal. I am embarrassed that I can’t recall his name. I think it was George. Our project manager was Marien. She aims for customer satisfaction and quickly saw to it that all of the blips that came along were corrected. No disagreements. Lastly, I must say that I appreciate EVERY SINGLE ONE of the workers, tile, carpentry. plumbing, electrical, etc. All were hard working and very pleasant to have in our home and did good work, especially Alex. > Monks was even able to start our job several weeks earlier than promised which was great. They are experienced in all aspects of remodel. **★★★★★ — adebear, Jan. 2023** > Very happy with the speed and work completed. Roberto was incredibly helpful and fast to respond to our changes. We will be using Monks again! **★★★★★ — HU-156359455, Jan. 2023** > Highly highly recommend Monks for any house projects! We recently remodeled our kitchen and are extremely satisfied with the outcome and the process the entire way. From the initial consultation with Maria, to the showroom visit/materials purchase with Casey, all the way through to the actual work in the house with Joey and Dave. The team worked around the clock (8-6 & on weekends) to get our kitchen done and looking pristine. The attention to detail, expertise, and professionalism were greatly appreciated! Monks is truly a great company for house projects as they handle everything from beginning to completion (measuring, materials, labor, permits, etc.) we loved our experience with Monks and have already reached back out for our next project! HIGHLY RECOMMEND :) **★★★★★ — Vince Vetri, Jan. 2023** > Bill Buckner, Jaime Hidalgo, Ward Malnak, and the rest of the Monk's team were a pleasure to work with. They spent a great deal of time and care in planning and preparing us for the project and delivered top quality work ahead of time and on budget. They were very collaborative and responsive. We will absolutely work with them again in the future. **★★★★★ — Mike Yacone, Jan. 2023** > Working with Brian Rickenbach and the team from Monks we replaced the flooring and through most of our home and replaced a sliding door with french doors. Brian and the team were very responsive, answered all our questions and were very thorough throughout the entire process! They delivered as promised and the floors and doors look great! Nice job! Thanks Brian and the entire team from Monks! **★★★★★ — Judy, Jan. 2023** > Our renovated bathroom and bedroom look beautiful. Bill Buckner and Marvin Rodriguez were very professional and I highly recommend them. **★★★★★ — Arielle Tighe, Jan. 2023** > Brian Rickenbach is as professional as it gets. From the beginning he gave me a timeline of when I would get my quote, called me as soon as he sent the quote, followed up with questions and had the job scheduled within a few days. Monks handled a multitude of projects for us: trim work, door installation, window installation, painting. I wish I knew about them before we redid our whole kitchen. I am extremely meticulous and asked for a few minor things to be fixed and Brian right away agreed and had it fixed for me without hesitation. I wouldn't hesitate to have them do all our home projects, big or small, for us. The whole experience was extremely smooth - Brian answers all calls and emails right away, which was important to me. Our house was also left spotless after all projects. **★★★★★ — yck1, Jan. 2023** > Monk's recently completed my 4th renovation project - our main bathroom. They did a great job as they have with the prior three projects. They are easy to work with, professional, and detailed. Marien Ronan, our Project Manager was always available and quick to respond when there was a question or a change needed. She always made sure we knew what was going on and made sure the work was done to our satisfaction. Any requests were accommodated well. **★★★★★ — HU-663353523, Jan. 2023** > Brian was amazing helping us get our project sorted out. So pleased with his effort and planning on our project! **★★★★★ — HU-532760910, Jan. 2023** > Roberto and his team did a great job installing a ceiling in my dining room! They work friendly, efficient and professional. **★★★★★ — HU-184881188, Jan. 2023** > Had a master bathroom done. Everything came out fantastic. The experience was was simple and smooth when it comes to going to the showroom and picking out the supplies and fixtures. As far as the actual renovation, Chris, our project manager and staff were very professional and kind. Chris went out of his way to make sure we were happy and satisfied. He also was able to do minor fixes in other areas of our home. If I move to another house that needs renovations, I will be giving Monks a call. **★★★★★ — HU-831271082, Jan. 2023** > Monk’s was amazing at doing a flood repair in our basement and work in our upstairs bathroom too. It was incredible how quickly they were able to remove the damage in the basement and then rebuild and paint. It looked better than before the damage ☺️. > What‘s even better was the amazing customer relations. We worked with Mike who was so kind and personable and patiently guided us through every step of the process. He was very trustworthy and really wanted to make sure we understood everything and were happy with the plans and final project. Mike and his team, which included the incredible workmanship of Franz, always showed up on time and produced beautiful, impeccable work. We are so happy to have found this company and will be using again! **★★★★★ — Mary Vaccarello, Jan. 2023** > We recently renovated two bathrooms with Monks Home Improvements. We were extremely pleased with the the final outcome. The entire team from Monk’s that worked on our project were terrific. We worked closely with Anina as our design consultant. She has a great eye and her design expertise guided us seamlessly through the entire process from visualization to installation. She is professional, diligent, and hard working. She worked quickly to resolve any questions or concerns that we encountered. Ward Malnak provided us with price quotes for the labor & materials associated with the job. He walked us through all of the numbers, taking the time to thoroughly explain the pricing and the scope of the work. He too was highly professional & was great with following up on any open items. Bill Buckner was the project manager assigned to our project. I can’t say enough about Bill. What a great guy…hard working, extremely organized, patient and great with follow-up & problem resolution. Bill was very approachable with any issues that arose during the construction phase of the product and went above and beyond to make sure that we were 100% satisfied every step of the way. The entire team assigned to our project were a pleasure to work with and I would absolutely recommend Monks Home Improvement to others looking for quality workmanship. I myself will certainly be calling upon them again in the future. **★★★★★ — HU-285966546, Jan. 2023** > We have used Monk’s over the years for large and small painting projects and carpentry projects. They are always responsive to our needs. There workers are competent and courteous. There representative, Shane Sweeney, is very responsive. **★★★★★ — Randy, Jan. 2023** > We hired Monk's to renovate our Jack and Jill bathroom. Our project manager was Joey, and our foreman was David and his two team members. Right at the get-go, Joey and David started a group chat with us to ensure that we were communicating about the project throughout its installation. This way, any questions or comments we had were always answered in a timely manner. The final result was even better than the preliminary mock-ups we received. It was 100% attention to detail; no corners cut; super clean finish. We couldn't be happier with the outcome. **★★★★★ — Marlo Berliner, Dec. 2022** > I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Trevor Monk, Brian Rickenbach, and all of the guys from Monks!! Brian and Trevor were a joy to work with. They and their team redid our entire basement quickly, efficiently, and professionally (after another builder spent over a year at our house creating a disaster of a mess down there). They had to tear nearly everything out that the other builder had done, re-do all the woodwork, order/rehang doors, and prep and paint all of the walls…and they did all of that in less than a week! And it looks amazing! And all in time for the holidays! And their price was reasonable too! Truly a Christmas miracle! I highly recommend them and will definitely be using them again in the future! **★★★★★ — HU-553001610, Dec. 2022** > Chris Klug was excellent as the project manager and Kala was as well as the design consultant. Job well done I highly recommend Monks **★★★★★ — Kate Muttick, Dec. 2022** > The Monk’s team transformed several spaces in our home and we couldn’t be happier. Led by Jon and his crew in Mountain Lakes, they installed a new front door, installed slate tile in our foyer (in an intricate herringbone style), transformed the fireplace, added moldings and millwork throughout the house and then painted the entire interior. With excellent communication and a wonderful crew, the work was done quickly and cleanly and at a very fair price. Highly recommend Jon’s team if you’re in the Mountain Lakes area. **★★★★★ — hericksen18, Dec. 2022** > I used Monk to have the exterior of my home repainted. Jason Solomon was my project manager. The entire experience with the teal at Monk’s was top notch; from communication, punctuality, professionalism and dedication to customer satisfaction, they are hands down the best construction company I have ever dealt with. Jason showed up for the first meeting on time and was armed with a wealth of knowledge. He really listened to what I wanted… I mean really listened. So often I. The past, I’d get a proposal and s the scope of work was completely off… wasting time. My initial proposal was perfect.. no need for editing. The team arrived as scheduled and worked full days. At the end of each workday, the work area was completely cleaned. They finished the job and stayed on schedule the entire time. The workers were all professional. At one point there was a mistake (caused by me) and the team immediately addressed and corrected the issue. I would highly recommend them to anyone! In fact, I will be using them again for an addition project. They have a Beautiul showroom with designers (I met with Zoriana and she was a delight.). After the meeting I had with Zoriana, I received an email from the owners, following up to see how the experience went and to ask if I had any questions. TOP NOTCH PROFESSIONAL COMPANY! **★★★★★ — Joan Carey, Dec. 2022** > We contracted with Monk's in early 2022 for a renovation of our kitchen and adjoining bathroom. It was the first time we attempted a renovation on our 33 year old home, and we were looking for a contractor to coordinate all the details form design to construction. I'm thrilled with the final results. It's even more beautiful than I could have imagined! Although I was nervous about the demolition and construction, Monks handled everything seamlessly and professionally. > > We are now embarking on the renovation of our two upstairs bathrooms. Jaclyn, our designer has put together unique designs that I'm sure will be as beautiful as the design for our kitchen and first floor bath. I look forward to working with Monks in the next few weeks and I can't wait to see the finished product! **★★★★★ — Emily Gullotti, Nov. 2022** > We have used Monks for so many home improvement project: a kitchen remodel, popcorn ceiling removal, exterior house painting, interior house painting ... I'm sure I'm forgetting some! We've always worked with Jason and he is fantastic. Professional, punctual, honest, fair ... The list goes on and on. I've gotten other quotes and they weren't cheaper. I've had other vendors and they were worse! I don't even bother getting my multiple quotes now because I know Monks will have a fair price AND they will get the job done the right way. **★★★★ — Don F, Nov. 2022** > Earlier this year Monk's installed new construction Marvin windows and a patio door in our townhouse. The project went smoothly from start to finish. Raoul, our installer, did a wonderful job. We are very pleased that we chose Monk's to do this work. > > Recently, Monk's also remodeled two full bathrooms for us. The master bathroom update was a gut job. Our project manager, Bill Buckner, was a pleasure to work with throughout, but I especially appreciated his help and guidance as we encountered a few "surprises" once the existing walls and flooring were removed. All the crews Monk's sent to our home were very capable and respectful. Kudos to Marvin Rodriguez. > > We love our new bathrooms! **★★★★★ — James Trollo, Nov. 2022** > We've hired Monk's for multiple different projects around our home. Most recently we used them to install a basement window that was leaking. Jared was very helpful and responsive during the entire process. Highly recommend using them. **★★★★★ — kathleen, Nov. 2022** > Can't say enough great things about our recent experience with Monks. Our home had many, many layers of paint/wallpaper from the last 5 decades. It was not a simple job and not a job a non-professional could attempt. They throughly explained the process and were able to start the job right away. We were planning to be away and they went out of their way to meet with us ahead of our leaving, and work in the home while we were away, finishing ahead of schedule when we returned. They completely removed the wallpaper they could, and where it was impossible, they removed any signs of wallpaper/textures. They took perfect care of the home and kept us updated. They completed the job ahead of schedule, left the home in clean condition, and it looks even better than I anticipated. Jon and Alberto were friendly, professional, and very patient with my last minute paint changes, questions, etc. We'd highly recommend their services. **★★★★★ — cdmills75, Nov. 2022** > From start to finish my experience with Monk's was amazing. I spoke to multiple contractors about my kitchen job and Monk's was the only one who would work with my vision and not try to upsell me on a total gut-reno when I didn't want or need one. Roberto was fantastic as a guide during the planning portion and then when the job started Joe Corticada was the most communicative and helpful project manager I have ever worked with. Literally texted me with every step and would answer my texts promptly. There were not many hiccups but when they did come up he always had a solution and didn't give the "oh man, I don't know, it's hard to fix" that always means more $$$. And his site manager Jose could not have been nicer or more skilled, there was literally nothing he couldn't fix. Monk's did all the electrical work, installing new lights and consolidating switches and moving outlets and their electrical subcontractor was prompt, efficient and reasonable. > > Additionally, I ended up finding an independent refinisher to give my existing cabinets a face-lift instead of gutting them and the guys at Monk's could not have been more accommodating, working with his schedule and mine. **★★★★ — HU-485042430, Nov. 2022** > Roberto representing Monk’s has assisted me twice this summer with two projects planned > Deck Sanding/ Staining > Painting Two Bedrooms > (Both projects completed) > He was prompt, professional, efficient and > And a bonus….. friendly > I feel I have made a great contact and would highly recommend. **★★★★★ — Stephanie Alberto, Nov. 2022** > Redid my kitchen and did a fantastic job! I worked with Nelson Santiago who was clear, communicative, and easy to partner with. He was very responsive, and his team was reliable! The work was done in a timely manner and the crew was able to assist with additional projects during the same time as the Kitchen Renovation. This is my first home, and I felt I was in great hands with Nelson and Monks. **★★★★★ — HU-642063385, Nov. 2022** > This is not the first time I have had Monk's out to my home. I have had them paint ceilings, install shelving, and update a half bath. All of the times I have had Monk's out, from start to finish, they have been courteous, timely, and skilled. All three of these things have always been important as I have had other contractors, say they will be out to give me an estimate and never show up. Monk's has always been early and able. I have recommended Monk's to my neighbors who were in a time crunch for the work on their home and Monk's delivered for them as well. > Special shout out to Roberto and Tito who worked well together to make sure the job was completed and smooth! **★★★★★ — HU-85108034, Nov. 2022** > I hired monks to replace the flooring, replace all my windows and sliding doors. Monks is a certified Marvin installer which helped make my decision. Roberto is great to work with he has been persistent and always answered the questions I had. I am hiring them to now paint my entire house. **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > Thank you very much for the review, Barry. We really appreciate the recommendation and continued business. Happy Thanksgiving! **★★★★★ — HU-258486951, Nov. 2022** > We had water damage from an AC leak and we wanted an accent wall in our bedroom. Roberto and the Monk’s team got us in the schedule in no time and they did the job in two days. Most importantly they left the house spotless. We would definitely use Monks again. Actually, it’s the third time they have done work for us. **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > Thank you for the review, Marco! I'm glad we were able to fix that damage and leave you with something more beautiful. Happy Thanksgiving! **★★★★★ — HU-609058532, Nov. 2022** > I highly recommend Monks. Their workmanship and communication was top notch. Roberto the estimator went over the entire project and was very knowledgeable. The Forman Gilberth was incredibly hardworking and talented. His crew was able to completely repair several major problems in our wood floors. They did such a good job my wife and I asked them to come back and do our base molding as well. Very happy with them. **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > Thank you for leaving this review, Gregory. I'm glad Gilberth was able to repair your wood floors to your satisfaction. We loved being asked back and look froward to future projects. Take care! **★★★★★ — HU-523085385, Nov. 2022** > Monks did great work redoing my bathroom and improving my basement. Jason Solomon did a great job keeping me updated throughout the project and ensuring the work was done correctly. **★★★★★ — HU-8359240, Nov. 2022** > Couldn’t be happier with all aspects of the job. Jason was great to deal with, always punctual and easy to reach for any changes or questions. The team was awesome, hard working, cleaned the site at the end of each day, and very professional. Most importantly, the product speaks for itself and we couldn’t be happier. The pricing was very competitive and we are so glad we went with Monks! **★★★★★ — cmbardon, Nov. 2022** > Monks recently completed our master bath renovation. Everything was organized and professionally managed from Initial planning visit with Jared, designer consult at showroom site, to project manager Garrett and foreman David supervising an outstanding crew. Every detail or question was addressed promptly, ongoing communication was consistent. Outstanding! We will continue to use Monks for other home improvements. Highly recommend! **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > Thank you so much, Carol! Enjoy your beautiful new bathroom! **★★★★★ — HU-986155105, Oct. 2022** > We used Roberto and Tito to paint the exterior of our home. They were communicative and did a great job! **★★★★ — J M, Oct. 2022** > I am currently using Monk for my kitchen renovation. I have never done a renovation before so this scared me. That being said, I decided to go with Monk because everything is in house and they handle and schedule everything for you . I like this and I feel like they really hold your hand every step of the way . This brings me to my project manager Nelson Santiago ( if you can get him for your project def do!) He is always accessible and always returns a call and or text. He makes sure things gets done and if an issue arises he literally just takes care of.it. I had a ding in one of my cabinets that occurred during instillation and he pointed to it and said it’s already taken care of … I ordered you a new one . It’s for reasons like this that I would recommend this company . I would also like to mention Isaac . He is one of the installers and he is so hard working and kind and has even come to my house on a Saturday to make sure his work is done on time. Hope this helps anyone looking to do a home improvement. **★★★★★ — sandra gambal, Oct. 2022** > After having many issues with my last painter. I decided to get an estimate from Monks Home Improvements. I met with Roberto at my condo in Verona. Roberto from the start was a gentleman, he was very patient with me and took his time to sit with me to go over the estimate on the same day of the appointment. He was able to answer all my questions and I immediately hired him for the job. His project manager Tito and his painting crew was lovely to work with. I highly recommend Monks for your next painting project. **★★★★★ — joe Sarno, Oct. 2022** > We used Monks on two separate occasions, to remodel our kitchen and to remodel our bathroom. Our kitchen remodel went perfectly so we decided to go with Monks for our bathroom remodel. This project also went perfectly. The work was performed neatly and efficiently. This was in large part due to the project manager, Joey Velerio. Joey was on site daily to supervise the crew and kept things on schedule. He was more than happy to answer any questions and address all of our needs. Customer satisfaction is truly their main priority. Because Monks provided excellent service and excellent workmanship. I would not hesitate to use Monks for any future projects. > Joe Sarno, Springfield **★★★★★ — Francine Moccio, Oct. 2022** > Worked with Roberto and Esteban on painting my entire interior of the house. Roberto is great to work with and he is great giving recommendation. Esteban did a fantastic job refinishing my kitchen cabinets. **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > Thank you for the recommendation, Francine. The kitchen cabinets look great. **★★★★★ — Priti Kinkhabwala, Oct. 2022** > We have used Monk's for several jobs over the past few years including interior and exterior painting, mahogany front porch staining and sealing, refinishing interior wood floors and small interior woodworking projects. It is a pleasure to work with Roberto Abrantes who efficiently assesses the scope of the job, provides a quick turn-around with a cost estimate and then clearly communicates and reviews the job specifics with the actual team that is assigned to the job. Monk's prices may be higher than smaller independent contractors but they are professional, dependable and deliver high-quality work. **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > It's been a pleasuring working for you, Priti. Roberto looks forward to helping you with your next home project! **★★★★★ — madjmon, Oct. 2022** > We recently had Monk’s Home Improvements repair our deck and home. Roberto Abrantes came to our home and gave us his professional advice as well as a fair estimate for the work to be done. Roberto is a pleasure to work with as well as his team headed by Jorge. Jorge is an experienced and professional and a pleasure to work with! They did an outstanding job and we highly recommend this company. This is our third > project with them and we intend to use them > next spring to paint our home! **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > Thank you for the review, Madeline. We look forward to painting your exterior in the Spring! **★★★★★ — winkban65, July 2022** > We’ve been working with Anina Peter of Monk’s Kitchen & Bath Design Studio for the past three months to design renovations of our kitchen, a pantry/office, and two bathrooms. Monk’s has a good selection of cabinets, countertops, tile, hardware and fixtures, all under one roof. Anina has been with us every step of the way, helping us select materials and designing and revising the design of the rooms. She has good taste, patience, and a lot of knowledge on the process. She also quickly developed a sense of what we like so that we’ve been comfortable working with her from the get go. I highly recommend working with Anina on kitchen and bath design. **★★ — Jason, June 2022** > I hired Monk’s to paint the interior of my house. To keep things simple, here are the problems I experienced: > 1\. They didn’t paint items above your eye level (i.e. you needed a ladder to see) such as the tops of the doors and the upper trims of the windows > 2\. They didn’t paint items below your eye level (i.e. you needed to crouch down to see) such as the bottoms of the doors and the lower trims of the windows > 3\. They painted on hardware such as strike plates, doorknobs, window handles, hinges, sliding doors’ upper/lower tracks, and more. It’s nearly impossible to get the paint off the window handles, so ultimately, I’ll have to purchase replacements. > 4\. There’s overspray on windows, glass, pipes, wires, etc. > 5\. There’s a lot of drips and uneven painting throughout the house > > I did a warranty claim, and the owner told me that they could fix everything in 3 days. They didn’t. > They came the following week for 2 days and the painters told me they finished. They didn’t. > > Honestly, I think the crux of the issue is their business model. You might deal with a somewhat reasonable estimator such as Jon Clauson, but ultimately, he’s not managing the project. It seemed no one was really managing the project and ensuring quality. Monk’s seems to be a volume business and subcontracts the work out to people who aren’t full-time employees, so it’s not surprising they might not care about the end result. They certainly aren’t accountable for the end result. > > I believe there are 3 ways you hear about a home improvement contractor: referrals, advertisements, or a hybrid of both. I’d go with referrals where you’ve seen their work at a friend’s or family’s place. Also, obtain multiple bids and contact 2 references for the one you choose who vouch solidly for them. > > Overall, I wouldn’t recommend Monk’s. **★★★★★ — da277, Nov. 2021** > I worked with Monk's to renovate my outdated, boring and blah kitchen. I went with them because I did not want the hassle of coordinating multiple contractors, ordering materials, etc. Denise K was the designer and she literally put together the kitchen of my dreams. Every morning I look at the finished product and cannot believe it's my kitchen. Jon C was the estimator who was great to get the project rolling. Chris K was the PM who was very responsive and was able to patiently handle a myriad of questions. Always upbeat and had great follow up. Jose and Jose were the 2 craftsmen that did the work and I was so impressed with both of them. They worked quickly and quietly and were so nice. Their attention to detail is bar none! I have some friends who had some reno projects going and the amount of issues and problems they've encountered are unbelievable. I would never trust anyone but Monk's to work on my future projects. Top notch in all aspects and they exceeded my expectations. My kitchen went from outdated boring and blah to one that takes my breath away! **★★★★★ — HU-970129544, March 2021** > Working with Ward was very easy and pleasant, and he took the time to clearly explain things. Teams came and worked quickly and efficiently, being sure to not to make a huge mess, and did their best to clean up afterwards. Payments could thankfully be made via credit or debit card electronically. Look forward to working with Monk’s again in the future. **★★★★★ — Andrew Hastie, Dec. 2020** > Monk’s repaired and replaced damaged shower floor, tile, wood framing, shower pan, drain, insulation, and added water-proofing system and marble slabs for glass. John at Monk’s was super responsive always getting back to me in a timely manner. He also stayed on top of our project to see that it started in a very reasonable timeframe. All of the work took 4 days to complete and the quality of the work exceeded our expectations. The shower looks so much better than it did when it was first installed. I would highly recommend Monk’s for any home improvement job. **★★★★★ — HU-499275902, Dec. 2020** > We've worked with John Mangiafreno at Monks twice for our kitchen and bathroom remodel. John and his team (Gido, Gio, Johnny) are extremely professionally, efficient, and talented. The job site is swept clean after every day and they take care of your house as of its their own. John is always accessible for any question or concern you might have. Throughout the project John is open and transparent when he sets realistic expectations, that he always exceeds. **★★★★★ — HU-782314056, Dec. 2020** > We were very pleased with the entire process from the estimate to execution. Ward was very helpful developing the scope to the work, and advising us what they could do and what could be done by others. Gerald, the head of the crew, and his workers were also very good executing the work and paying attention to details. Overall a very satisfactory experience. **★★★★★ — humphreyr, Dec. 2020** > I've used Monk's on 3 occasions for wall repairs, interior painting, deck staining, house power-washing, and deck repairs. I was absolutely pleased with their work. Not only did they do an excellent job, but they showed up on time and finished on schedule. I highly recommend Monk's and I plan on using them again. **★★★★★ — HU-64884975, Dec. 2020** > I have owned homes for over 40 years. Monk’s is by far the best contractor I’ve ever engaged. **★★★★★ — HU-666240667, Dec. 2020** > We engaged with Ward from Monk's for our kitchen cabinet surfacing and floor polishing project. It went very well and I was very satisfactory about the quality. **★★★★★ — HU-621756812, Dec. 2020** > Monk’s was an excellent company to work with when having the exterior trim painted on our house. Ward was extremely professional, easy to work with, and the job was done quickly, with no issues at all. I was especially appreciative of their great communication, as so many other painting companies simply did not call us back or show up. This was never an issue with Monks! We will definitely use them again in the future!! **★★★★★ — bonnieandjohn, Dec. 2020** > Work was started and completed as scheduled. Workmanship was excellent and the team of workers were professional and polite. I used them for several projects over the years. I would highly recommend Monk's. **★★★★★ — HU-791444892, Dec. 2020** > Ward Malnak, with Monk, completed the installation of attic stairs for me. I was given a quote for the job and it was completed in a timely manner. The stairs were awkward to do because of the age of the home; 140 years old. They also repaired, at a separate time, the replacement of a wood panel on the rear of the house and reinforcing brackets for the porch steps. I would recommend this company and Ward to do any individual who wants quality and qualified workers who follow through from quotes, repairs to clean-up. **★ — HU-961277449, Oct. 2020** > Absolute nightmare. Single worst contractor experience ever. Ordered new custom windows and french doors. Nothing came in as ordered. Installation was shoddy with paint left on the glass and hardware missing. Installation crew even painted plastic moldings which wer never supposed to be painted and improperly installed window moldings. > Custom woodwork (moldings) looked like it was done by a 12 year old in woodshop. Months later we are still without proper hardware. Installation crew did not follow proper COVID protocols. I would not recommend them to my worst enemy. **★★★★★ — gdoodle8, June 2020** > When choosing to repaint our home, I sought out Monks due to their outstanding reputation. They responded quickly, were professional throughout, friendly, priced fairly and restored the traditional beauty of our home. We have a colonial farmhouse that had been neglected and needed a transformation. From color choice to enhancing details and repairing damage, Monks helped every step of the way. I would hire them again in a heartbeat and truly enjoyed working with each of their professionals. Each of the workers were friendly, dependable and honest. The company is comprehensive and able to provide general contracting outside of the scope of traditional painters. The project was done in its entirety by Monks, which resulted in quick turn around and fair pricing. The quality of their work is superior and I would recommend them to everyone. **★★★★★ — Brian Callahan, June 2020** > Our home is small and about 70 years old and came with many design challenges. It was also very challenging finding the right contractor. From the moment we walked into Monk's showroom, we knew we were in the right place. Mike designed us a beautiful kitchen and bath and Bruce provided us with great recommendations for windows and doors. They were very professional, courteous, patient, had great solutions and ideas. Jason was very helpful estimating the labor and came up suggestions that guided us in the right direction. When it came time to start construction, Nelson the project manager came to our home and explained everything they were going to do. He went above and beyond managing our project. He said it would take 4 weeks and to our amazement, it only took four weeks. Nelson's crew are excellent craftsmen. They did a beautiful job. The punch list was minimal and resolved by the last day. There were no hidden costs. There were minimal extras and the costs were agreed upon upfront. I would recommend Monk's to anyone. My only regret is I do not have more work to give them. **★★★★★ — HU-894062931, Sept. 2019** > Kurt Becker, Bill Buckner and Jennifer Calavano were each incredibly professional and helpful during the project. And they stood by their commitments and scoped the project accurately and fairly. I would highly recommend Monk’s for your home improvement needs. **★★★★ — DeAnn Prosia, June 2019** > John Maniafreno, the project manager for our bathroom remodel, was great. Extremely nice and very responsive to my texts. He and his team - including Jose, who was beyond professional and extremely capable of any challenge put before him - were courteous and professional every step of the way. **★★★★★ — Norma Molyneux, April 2019** > Bill Buckner, the project manager on my renovations, was professional and very organized. He would always get back to me promptly if I had any questions. Always let me know in advance when they would be there to start working. Jaime, the head of the crew, was very professional as well and his workmanship was meticulous. My designer, Cortney, is such an asset to your company. She really knows her stuff. Everything she helped me with looks beautiful. **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > Thank you, Norma! Bill, Jaime, and Cortney appreciate the recommendation. Enjoy your kitchen and bath updates! Best Regards, Ty Monk **★★★★★ — Lori Doughty, April 2019** > We used Monks Design Studio to remodel our kitchen. The result is fantastic and we are completely happy with our experience with the designers, and construction crew. Cindy Gilmore was our designer and she was wonderful helping us pick materials and providing us with numerous computer renditions of the changes we kept making. Everyone involved in the project was professional, responsive to our needs and questions, and great to work with. Highly recommended. **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > Thank you for the review, Lori. I love the cabinetry color and the open shelving. Just beautiful! Cindy is excited to see the final project. Warm Regards, Ty Monk **★★★★ — HU-206815116, March 2019** > Complete bathroom and utility room renovation. A few headaches but overall extremely positive experience. We are planning our next big project and would use Monks **★★★★★ — JoAnn Winters, Dec. 2018** > They replied very quickly to my inquiry which impressed me since it was not a major job. They repaired my hall and bathroom ceilings and bathroom wall by removing the peeling surface paint and plaster, then smoothing it,priming and painting .Completely finished the job in 3 days. Looks great! **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > Thank you, Ms. Winters. I'm glad Travis and Wilson were able to help you out quickly and to your satisfaction. Best Regards, Ty Monk **★★★★★ — Michael Swearingen, Dec. 2018** > Always professional. Fair price, excellent preparation and painting.

Michael Iannuccilli was extremely professional and always responded very quickly to any questions or concerns I had prior to the job being done. His crew did a great job and completed everything down to the last detail. Quality work and no cutting corners. They cleaned up and you would never know they were here. Their pricing is reasonable. I highly recommend the company. **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > Thank you for the review, Ian! Glad we were able to make the repairs and replacement to your satisfaction. Happy holidays! - Ty Monk **★★★★★ — Bill P, Dec. 2018** > Monks Home Improvement did an amazing job renovating and painting the main living area of our home. The project included knocking down two walls, installing a cove ceiling in the dining room, extending and re-staining hardwood floors, laying tile floor throughout the kitchen, laundry room and powder room, replacing multiple doorway and window casings, and refacing the fireplace. From the initial sales meeting with George Day, through working with Project Manager Bill Buckner and the crew Alonso, Gerardo, and Carlos, the process was extremely smooth and the craftsmanship was flawless. The Monk's team members were true professionals, experts at their trade, and extremely accessible during all phases of the project. Additionally, they were very pleasant to be around and were extremely trustworthy. We never had any concern having them in our house when we were away at work. They were friendly with our family and even our dog. We could not be happier with the finished product and would recommend Monk's any day of the week. They worked on a very tight seven week schedule and were able to meet the 'Before Thanksgiving' deadline enabling us to host our family and friends for the holiday. We will definitely be using Monks on our future projects. Thank you for everything Bill, Alonso, Gerardo, Carlos, and George! **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > Thank you for the review, Bill. Everything looks gorgeous! I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your friends and family. Warm Regards, Ty Monk **★★★★★ — Rosemary and Bill Fitzsimmons, Nov. 2018** > Monk's Bath Design Studio is "One Stop Shopping.

Every member of the Monk's team starting with my first call to them, portrayed caring about the actual job along with my level of satisfaction with their performance. Those things made all the difference to me. Also, having to pay by check was a plus, as the end of the job is the end of my payment. That was a great relief as it kept me mindful of making smart choices with my spending. I would absolutely hire Monk's again off the strength of the cellar and screen door installation jobs which were completed at my home. **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > Thank you for the review!

Kind regards, Ty Monk **★★★★★ — Molly Higgins Interior Design LLC, March 2018** > These expert carpenters would please the most discerning client. They can create any vision you propose.

They are customer-service oriented and will make every detail perfect. **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > Thank you, Molly! George has enjoyed working with you. Looking forward to our next project together. **★★★★★ — Phil Kane, Jan. 2018** > I had some serious doubt that anyone could meet my expectations when we decided to remodel our kitchen. We walked to Monk's showroom one afternoon and met Marien. Thought the entire process Marien remained patient as we met with her at least half a dozen times over a three month period before finalizing our design. Once we agreed upon a start date we were introduced to Bill Buckner (no not the Ex-Cub/Red Sox baseball player!) who ran the project. We started by installing a hardwood floor and Bryner along his crew did an excellent job and set the tone for the rest of the project. We were then introduced to Isaac who installed our cabinets and appliances...what a craftsman! We were now ready for the installation of our backsplash and I said to Bill "spend me your best" and he did. John did a fantastic job! And finally Eric came into to put the finishing touches on the project by painting our ceiling, walls and baseboard. We needed to replace the trim around the window above the sink and Eric was able to match the stain that we had on the previous trim. We could not have been more thrilled with the result of the entire project. We now have Monk's now working on a design for our laundry room. **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > Thank you, Phil! I will share your comments to Marien, Bill and the rest of the team. The kitchen looks great! Looking forward to the laundry reno. -Ty Monk **★★★★★ — Carol Nordin McCarthy, Dec. 2017** > After talking with multiple local contractors and design firms we hired Monk’s to remodel our kitchen.

George who provided our estimate, visited our house multiple times without complaining so that we could consider different options. In addition Jennifer our designer updated her proposal several times as she worked to help us meet our vision while remaining within budget. Once the project kicked off, we were in good hands with Bill who managed our kitchen project. He was always available when needed and obviated potential challenges before they became issues. Jaime and his amazing team built our kitchen and painted. With the care they showed it seemed like they could have been working on their own kitchen. Our project also included adding to and refinishing our hardwood floors. Gilberth and his team did an incredible job and finished ahead of schedule. We have already recommended Monks to friends and are planning to hire them again for other projects. Thank you Monks! **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > Thank you, Carol!

We look forward to working with you again on a project of your choosing! > Thank you, Ty Monk **★★★★★ — Karen, Jan. 2017** > I kept putting off doing any work on my condo because I didn't want to deal with a labor intensive project. After to the "to do" list got too long I reached out to Monks for a quote and couldn't be happier. The team process went well, the entire team was extremely supportive and flexible with my schedule and the fact that I lived in a small space. The quality of the work was excellent. Wilson, who headed up my painting project went above and beyond, checking in on me, my schedule and sent me texts to alert to me wet paint so I didn't come home to a messy situation. The entire team was fantastic and pleasure to work with! **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > Thank you, Karen. I've shared your feedback with Wilson, Kurt and Bill. So glad you are pleased with the work and the service. -Ty Monk **★★★★★ — Donna Chiffriller, Oct. 2016** > We Love Monk's! > > Monk's recently painted our dining room and we are so pleased, we are > inviting them back to paint additional rooms and install a mirror and some > miscellaneous hardware. > Travis Marion and his crew do outstanding work from estimating the job through > cleaning up when finished. The guys who worked at our house were polite, > neat and efficient. Everything was moved out of harm's way and then put > back when the job was completed. > > We highly recommend Monk's for your painting and other home renovation needs! **★★★★★ — Kyle Holman, Oct. 2016** > I initially contacted Monk's to discuss refinishing cabinets in my kitchen. While I was fully down the road of renovating my whole kitchen, I was only going to have Monk's refinish the cabinets. After having multiple conversations with George, I ended up giving Monks the majority of the project. What initially started out as cabinets went to counter tops, hardware, and painting. From the head contractor Bill, to the designer Jennifer, and to the head painter Ziggy, it was a pleasure working with this company. Besides the actual work that was done, the one thing that stood out in my mind was how clean everyone worked. Coming home to a renovation project, to which work was accomplished in a timely manner, while seeing the work area spotless, is a great feeling. All in all, the project success and certainly money well spent. **★★★★★ — pel06, Oct. 2016** > We are very pleased with the care and quality of Monks! From our head contractor, Bill Buckner to our foreman Jaime and his right hand man, Hidalgo, everyone involved was professional, courteous, and hard working! Bill Buckner was in contact with us throughout the remodeling and always answered any questions promptly. Our new bathroom looks fantastic! **★★★★★ — Teri Sherman, Oct. 2016** > Monks is such a professional company. Jason provided initial quote - he was detailed and very thorough. Tito, our Forman and his crew were fantastic. Their attention to detail was outstanding. They were punctual, organized and provided high quality work. We highly recommend Monks and would use again! **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > Thank you so much for the review, Teri. I've shared your comments with both Jason and Tito, who will be most appreciative. So glad you were happy with everything. -Ty Monk **★★★★★ — edward\_subak, Sept. 2016** > Monk replaced kitchen countertop and backsplash -- excellent job. Bill and his crew did great work both in the demolition, repair, installing the new backsplash tiles, and grout. They even did a great job in the clean up!!! When we do our bathroom update, we've hire Monk again. **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > Thank you, Mr. Subak. I've shared your feedback with Bill. So glad you are happy with the new countertop and backsplash. -Ty Monk **★★★★★ — ehbrown\_home, Sept. 2016** > Bill Buckner led a crew that delivered more than they promised. I came home to find the tile work in my bathroom was finished earlier than expected and I can't tell you how great your people were. Christian led the work with two other men whose names I'm embarrassed to admit I don't remember. They were all polite, neat, on-time and hard-working. > > Monk's is lucky to have great staff like these men. They went above and beyond my expectations and even took the initiative to install a new multi-nozzle shower system that I planned to install myself once they finished. > > Thank you! **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > Thank you, Mr. Brown. I shared your feedback with Bill and Cristian who are most appreciative. So pleased to hear you are pleased with the service you received. -Ty Monk **★★★★★ — gail, Aug. 2016** > Monk's turned our bathroom from barely functional into a beautiful, usable space. Along the way extra repairs due to termite damage and previous homeowners' DIY were quickly repaired. Bill coordinated our project even while we were on vacation explaining and keeping us updated. When an issue came up he was available to stop by and problem solve. Mario and Romey worked tirelessly. They put in long days and did high quality work. > > The bathroom is wheelchair accessible. It is easy for our disable family members to use. This was by far the most pleasant remodeling project I have ever had done. Monk's arrived on time and worked continuously on our home. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing a home improvement project done. **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > Gail, Thank you so much for taking the time to provide a review. I'm so happy that your experience was a pleasant one and that your "new" bathroom is fully accessible. I've shared your feedback with Bill, Romey and Mario. They really appreciate hearing the praise. :) Thank you! - Ty Monk **★★★★★ — ryock83, Aug. 2016** > Monks did a complete remodeling job of my kitchen, cabinets, floor, backsplash, and paint. Their work is outstanding, and I would highly recommend Monks to anyone considering a home remodeling project. The construction team, led by Bill Buckner, were great. His crew are highly professional, their workmanship, professionalism, and attention to detail are second to none. Equally important, they show up on time and completed the project on schedule (and on budget) as per the schedule put forth by Bill and my estimator Paul Mezzanotte. > > Monks also provided the material selection and design services, and for that I can't thank Jennifer Spiegel enough. She has a terrific eye for design and was able to translate my vision of what I wanted in my kitchen into reality yet still keeping me on budget. > > Monks turned my kitchen into a room that wow's me every time I enter it. I guarantee you will be completely satisfied with Monks! **★★★★★ — jndelinsky, July 2016** > I've used Monks several times for interior and exterior painting. They are awesome! They do what they say their going to do one time and on budget. They truly do great work and are so easy to work with, particularly Brian Giovacco. **★★★★★ — dchitrisig, July 2016** > Our new kitchen is beautiful! Melissa helped us through the design and Bill and his boys made it happen, offering us solutions that fit our family's needs. They always left our home cleaner than when they got there and finished before they projected that they would. Our project manager, Bill, communicated with us constantly and made what we thought would be a huge disruption to our lives, a painless experience. Every inspection and trade was scheduled and monitored by Bill; we never had to take off work. I have already recommended Monks to others, and will continue to do so. Excellent craftsmanship and professional service. **★★★★★ — gregor\_macmullen, June 2016** > Kurt Becker and the crew from Monk's did a great job installing windows at our house. The process from Quote to Install was very satisfactory. The labor quote was very competitive and included a larger crew than other quotes I received! The project was delayed with early spring rains, but Kurt kept us informed of the delays and the expected install timing. Once the date arrived, the crew worked professionally and cleanly, with the installation going very smoothly. > > We are completely happy with the job Monk's did and have already started assessing with Kurt the next jobs we will be hiring Monk's for. Highly Recommended!!! **★★★★★ — leeann\_barone58, June 2016** > Monk's is the best. From the estimate/contract signing phase with Brian Giovacco to the work phase all was extremely smooth. Very professional workers. This was the 4th time we used them and will continue to use them again. > LeeAnn Barone **★★★★★ — tdefreitas, June 2016** > Eric Alvarez at Monks was a complete pleasure to work with. He kept me very well informed on the problems or issues that arose, always checking in when plans changed, answered all my questions timely, just a reliable person to have on the ground as I could not be there on a daily basis. I will do my next project with him again! **★★★★★ — btmcgrath, May 2016** > Monks just completed a back deck off my mother's condo. They started and finished the job on time. The job was within their estimated cost. The workers were kind and courteous and the job site was clean at the end of each day. I highly recommend Monks **★★★★★ — krb4343, May 2016** > Monks Home Improvements is fantastic. I was preparing a house to put on the market. Monks responded very promptly to my first call and an estimator was at my house within days! They were able to meet my timeline and even started the project earlier than originally discussed. My Project Manager, Travis Marion is great. He fully understood what needed to be done in the house and even gave great suggestions. I had a lot of work done, interior, exterior painting, carpentry work and hardwood floor refurbishing. The painting project manager, Carlos was also great! The Monks crew got everything done right! The team showed up on time every day, worked hard and left the house very neat when they left each day. Highly recommend Monks Home Improvements! **★★★★★ — nclerihue, May 2016** > This is the fourth time we've used Monk's to repair or maintain our 100-year-old home. Every person we've encountered has been professional and personable. If we had a problem with the work, it was minor and dealt with immediately and satisfactorily. We would recommend them unconditionally. In fact, we've already begun to explore their next project for us! Thanks, Monks! **★★★★★ — Jeff Kuchinsky, May 2016** > We selected Monk's to paint the interior of our home and could not be happier. The quality of the work was terrific, and the service was commensurate if not even more remarkable. That is a rare combination today, and the reason we would recommend their services to anyone. **★★★★★ — Melissa Hedley, April 2016** > I hired Monks for a new storm door and gutter repair. They were very professional, attentive and warm - not intimidating. There prices were fair but their service and products are exceptional. I then hired them to do outdoor painting to my house and patio. The men were excellent- going above and beyond, courteous, worked very long hours to get the job done quickly and some of the best painting I have seen. I highly recommend them for painting and house improvements **★★★★★ — J R, April 2016** > We hired Monk's to paint our nursery and install crown molding. Brian Giovacco from Monk's handled the job and was extremely professional and polite. He came to the house on time for the estimate and his crew arrived on time the day of the job. He was there that day to make sure everything went smoothly and to ensure his crew knew exactly what they needed to do. They were clean and quiet - I barely knew they were in the house! They were very friendly - even joking around with my little kids. They did a fantastic job and I would gladly hire them again. **★★★★★ — alifox, April 2016** > We would highly recommend Monk's to anyone. Monks has done several projects for us. Most recently, they designed and built a custom closet, bookshelf, and radiator cover in our master bedroom. We worked with Angelo for the design and he sketched out exactly what we were looking for. When we were ready to start the project, Angelo and his team put us on the calendar to begin work the following week and the whole duration of the project took only one week. The crew was very clean and courteous. We felt very comfortable letting them into the house for the day and leaving them to work on the project without any oversight. **★★★★★ — esylva51, April 2016** > With a time crunch due to closing dates, Monks built basement kitchen, wine cellar, rec room, and office. Painted entire condo basement, first and second floors. Refinished first floor hardwood flooring. At times, there were 10-12 men from Monks working in the condo over five to six weeks. They paid attention to all our needs and all the details. Very, very professional and they do not come up with any surprises. Monk's is now quoting a big job for our son. **★★★★★ — TJ Scallon, April 2016** > John from Monks and his team did such a great job on our basement that we are planning to bring then back again for additional projects. They helped turn our basement into a beautiful, warm and cozy, functional space with wet bar, bathroom, new flooring, recessed lighting and of course a wonderful paint job to finish it off. Everyone was very friendly and John was always there when I needed him. **★★★★ — janspn414, April 2016** > We've used Monks over the past five years for a variety of painting and renovation projects. They are very responsive and their work comes out beautifully. We will continue to go to them for painting, carpentry and renovations. **★★★★★ — Joseph Atencio, April 2016** > We started using Monk's several years ago for painting, but now use them for their carpentry and home repair services as well. We have them on speed dial because the service is always prompt, the quality is excellent and the prices are fair. Angelo Santoro always responds immediately and makes sure things gets things done, even when our time lines are compressed. The employees are very well trained and are meticulously tidy on both interior and exterior projects. We continue to use their services for big and small jobs and would recommend them without hesitation. **★★★★★ — mjatn, April 2016** > We have used Monk's for two carpentry projects over the past few months and have been very pleased with the results. The first project was constructing a built-in bench with shelves in the mudroom, and the second was reworking the size of a large antique cabinet with sentimental value that needed to be reduced in depth by about half in order to fit in our new house. We had a very good experience throughout the process. We worked with George (estimator), Cesar (foreman) and Hiram (main carpenter - and extremely skilled). Would definitely recommend (and have) for carpentry projects. **★★★★★ — jliebs77, April 2016** > Monk's painted the interior of our house and replaced a door and trim. Our house looks fantastic, and everyone from Monk's so professional and courteous. The colors that their designer helped us pick out are perfect, too. **★★★★★ — Shelley Molnar, April 2016** > We were very pleased with the quality of work and the professionalism of John Jones and his team. > He showed up when he said he was going to--and for the very few times that he was going to be more than a couple of minutes delayed, he always called to let us know. > He did everything that he said he was going to do and made sure that we were pleased with the results. > It was a pleasure dealing with John Jones. **★★★★★ — Mark Stanziale, April 2016** > We have used Monk's Home Improvement for our painting needs and they did a beautiful job of removing the popcorn ceilings in our home and repainting walls and ceilings. Their team is prompt and are very meticulous in keeping everything neat and clean during the painting process. We highly recommend them for your painting needs. Very happy customer! **★★★★ — coffeymje, April 2016** > i have been a steady customer of Monk's for several years. I have hired them for exterior/interior painting, deck refinishing, gutter replacement, exterior doors replacement, basement remodeling. > Obviously since I keep bringing them back each year for more home improvements, I am very happy with the quality of work and their extreme devotion to customer service. I always ask for Travis Marion to be my estimator and overall project supervisor. He is a pleasure to work with and is very attentive to our needs, and wants to make sure that we are happy with the work performed by the Monk's. **★★★★★ — traughber3, April 2016** > If we do future projects, we will be contacting Monk's Painting and Home Improvement. Our project involved painting walls, trim and ceilings in 6 rooms and associated hallways, replacing half bath floor and kitchen update involving cabinetry changes and paint, countertops and backsplash. It started on the 16th and Monk's completed work on the 7th-as originally estimated. Tomorrow, the 9th, ARS will finish the under cabinet lighting installation. > Love that Monk's is a company that does what you want to do and we were never pressured to make different decisions. We were only supported. > Jennifer helped us through our design discussions and handled all product orders and related follow ups efficiently. George showed up on time for two home visits up front and provided bids each visit after measuring and updating for changes. He was also here quickly when we decided to add a room to the painting work during the project. George walked Bill through all the work planned about a week ahead of the start date. Bill oversaw the project throughout and was great at keeping us updated on what would happen when. He also responded quickly on all questions and concerns. Everyone was professional. Ramon and his team performed all the painting and cabinetry changes in the kitchen. Ramon kept us up tp speed each day about what was happening and what comes next. The team was great on preparation and pre-painting repairs, showed up on time, cleaned up each day. Ramon was very attentive to our questions and concerns. Jamie and his team did the required demolition, reinstallations and tile work. We are very pleased with the quality of the tile work. With Monk's, every step of the way we knew what was to happen and the work was done when we were told it would be done. No weather issues or issues at other jobs that took priority. Very refreshing. I like that team members worked professionally and I never got the sense that anyone ever roamed into any room that was not specific to the work at hand. Also very nice because there were many people here at times. **★★★★★ — artl1018, April 2016** > After having an outstanding experience with Monk's on an exterior paint job, called Rich Ressa about a full bathroom renovation. Rich and Greg Kihm, got a thorough understanding of our needs and provided an estimate on the spot. Monk's place a premium on customer communication, and an effective, open channel was established from Day One. > The job was turned over to Eric Alvarez to manage. Eric provided a complete understanding of each phase of the project, was always present at critical junctures, and answered questions on a timely basis. The construction team led by Cristian Guzman was punctual, professional, easy to deal with, and went to great lengths to minimize disruption of the household. The job was finished ahead of schedule. > We could not be happier with the results. While the individual components of the bathroom are simple, in execution and combination they are stunning. The Monk's team takes great pride in craftsmanship and we are still amazed by the product months later. > Monk's is out first choice for home improvement and we cannot recommend them highly enough. **★★★★★ — chrishatt, April 2016** > Kurt Becker, project manager with Monks Home Improvements, supervised completion of a painting job at my home in August, 2015. Work involved preparation and painting of exterior areas (front door, façade, garage door, fascia boards), as well as filling cracks, smoothing surfaces, and painting areas inside the house ( hall area and doors). Prior to starting the job, Kurt shared his expert knowledge of materials and what needed to be done, and the timeline and budget. He also introduced me to the two men who were assigned to the job. Kurt and the team exceeded my expectations in terms of thoroughness, quality of work, and professionalism. I recommend, without reservation, Monks Home Improvements to anyone considering a home renovation or improvement project. **★★★★★ — lkenned9174, April 2016** > What a great experience working with Ryan and Monks. They were on time which is big in my book. They were clean, professional and understanding. > > I will be calling them back. > > Ryan was a pleasure to work with very patient. **★★★★★ — csbutler4, April 2016** > Monks Home Improvements is a class act. Jason was our estimator, and he was extremely professional in providing us a quote. He took his time and gave us a comprehensive quote that included everything we would normally have to ask questions about. He happily quoted a lot more work than we were actually going to start out with, but we're so glad because we know over the next year we will be hiring Monk's back to do more. His crew, led by Luis, was amazing. It wasn't just a paint job in the two rooms that we had -- the walls had many imperfections and before we moved into the house they had been painted over incorrectly many times. The quality of the walls are now flawless from their preparation. The crew was friendly and neat. I had to go back to work, so I left them there to work all day on their own, and never gave it a second thought. **★★★★★ — kristimacdonald1, April 2016** > Kurt Becker at Monk's has been great to work with on our many complicated home improvement projects! Not kidding, he has been so patient with us by listening to our concerns/needs, coming back multiple times, and following up with us in a timely manner about the projects Monk's had done for us so far. We had Monk's install a hardwood floor in our kitchen and install 2 exterior doors. All has been high quality work and any concerns were quickly addressed. I recommend consulting with Kurt on your project. **★★★★★ — Deborah Hoffman, April 2016** > We used Monk's for exterior painting in 2015 and interior painting, installing molding, and hardwood floor screening in Feb 2016. Workers were on time and courteous. Would not hesitate to use them again. Estimator Jason Solomon was great to work with. **★★★★★ — jk113, April 2016** > Monks had a carpenter build railings for our exterior front steps. They matched them to our existing porch railings and they are the perfect fit for our 1920's colonial. Jason was our point person and he was great, always checking in and following up. **★★★★★ — kristamcolwell, April 2016** > My husband and I hired Monk's to redo our upstairs bathroom that had some water damage and needed an overhaul. Eric Alvarez, our project manager, was not only a pleasure to work with but got everything finished in record time! We are more than happy with our beautiful new bathroom! **★★★★★ — cdogi1014, April 2016** > Extremely courteous. Crew is neat, on time and did a great job. I was always aware of timing and all issues were resolved promptly. **★★★★★ — jemjam3, April 2016** > Remodel hall bath. Tiled, painted, installed new vanity and toilet and seamless shower door. Completed job quickly, and very professionally. Cleaned up every day before they left. **★★★★ — Nancy Murray, March 2016** > Monk does very good carpentry work. They repaired some exterior wood rot we found and did a window replacement, too. We would definitely recommend them. **★★★★ — gailcapemay, March 2016** > Our experience overall was a good one. We are pleased with our kitchen, powder room, and laundry room renovation. The hardwood floor team, led by Gilbert, did a great job. The renovation team, led by Kender, was very skilled and paid attention to detail. Of course, the design consultant, Melissa, could not have been more helpful during our planning phase. Any issues encountered along the way were handled by Monk's in a timely and professional manner. **★★★★★ — Jennifer Frantz, March 2016** > Melissa helped us design our dream kitchen. She gave us specific options to work with the needs of our family and make our lives easier. Great selection and expertise at Monk's Studio! **★★★★★ — jerjela, Sept. 2015** > Prompt scheduling for quotes and projects. Good communication. Very professional. Fair pricing. No pressure sales. Great finished product. Would hire again. **★★★★★ — nrohrbacker, June 2015** > Monks Home improvement power washed our home, installed some gutters and painted our shutters. They were courteous, showed up when they said they would and completed the job quickly with excellent results. **★★★★★ — Alicia Weisbrot, June 2015** > A year and a half ago I had window replacement and the exterior of my home painted. This year (05/15) I had my kitchen renovated with new wood floors and refinishing of the existing hardwood floors. Both times I worked with George Day. The reason I've used them for 2 such important home projects is because of their quality of work and because of George. From day one he has always come when he said he'd be there, returned all calls and answered all questions. Any crew he's brought in, whether its Gilbert for the floors or Daniel for carpentry and painting, has done excellent work with the added bonus of being accessible, knowledgable and responsive to any concerns. Any ideas I had they translated for me. Examples: border on the hardwood, built in refrigerator, larger drawer under wall oven, kitchen window shelf, etc. > Additionally I worked with Melissa Eppler who assisted me in choosing counter materials and tile for my backsplash design. Her expertise was essential. > The Monks "Team" has on every occasion met, exceeded and enhanced expectations! **★★★★★ — texasriver7, June 2015** > If you are looking for professionalism, expertise and a quick turn – around hire Monk’s and they will by far exceed your expectations. From the courteous beyond knowledgeable owner Trevor Monk, to the crafty head carpenter Christian down to my favorite Monk’s foreman --sweet Gerald I received nothing but excellence in craftsmanship, communication & most important-- quality. They did a fantastic job completely remodeling the exterior of our 1924 colonial house, deck & garage by sanding down to bare cedar, priming and painting, building a custom made pergola, installing 6 inch gutters & downspouts, cutting, framing and installing a new window. Next I look forward to partnering with them on the interior of our house-- hello new kitchen! **★★★★★ — jessj73, May 2015** > Monk's always is extremely clean, polite, talented and professional on all the work we've had done by them. Maria is a great foreperson, as is Fernando. Can't recommend them enough! **★★★★★ — tsymia, Jan. 2015** > I got built-ins done in my basement so that my kids projects and toys could be more organized. I couldn't believe the professionalism of the workers. The project estimate was lower than competitors and the project came in at the estimate. These guys are honest and trustworthy and follow up to make sure you are happy. The project came out even better than I imagined! In already thinking about my next project! **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > We're so glad you are happy with how everything turned out. We think it looks great! I'll pass along your kind words to Angelo and team. -Ty Monk **★★★★★ — Daniel Sroka Fine Art, Dec. 2014** > We have hired Monks for several projects now, including exterior painting and carpentry. They have always been professional, organized, and friendly, and have done excellent work each time. They are our go-to source for all general contracting work. **★ — 2mad2see, Nov. 2014** > I hired Monks to refinish some floors in my home. While the floors were refinished satisfactorily, the carpentry work (replacement molding in certain areas) was horrible - it actually looked like a child had done it! The "dustless" job created a solid coating of dust throughout my house that I am still dealing with. I just found a pile of sawdust in the middle of the bed in a room that they were not even supposed to be in. In addition, there was some damage to some woodwork in my house, but the workers denied doing it even though it was quite clearly a fresh chunk taken out of the wood. To their credit, they returned and redid the carpentry work on the molding so that it was satisfactory. But I was quite disturbed by the attitude of the manager/foreman who at first argued with me about the molding until I asked if she would like her house to look like that? I felt that they only returned to fix the job because I repeatedly insisted it was not acceptable. I don't like to be bitchy with workmen but found I had to be in this case. Unfortunately I will not be hiring Monks in the future, nor giving anyone a recommendation to use this company. I should have checked them out more thoroughly before hiring them. **Comment from Monk's Home Improvements:** > Ms. James, > I sincerely apologize that we let you down with your project. Based on what we discussed from my visit to your home this morning, we agreed to a make good that meets your satisfaction. Please reach out to me if there is anything else we can do. We want to make sure we make this right with you. > Sincerely, > Trevor Monk **★★★★★ — maryford4, Nov. 2014** > Exterior Painting of our home. Travis and Carlos were great to work with. Very respectful and thorough. I will definitely use them again. All requests and questions that I had were handled timely. I was very happy with the way the project turned out. **★★★★★ — C S, Oct. 2014** > We've hired them to re-do our kitchen floors to match the rest of the house. Monks did a fantastic job and were professional and courteous. **★★★★★ — zelaznogyhtak, Sept. 2014** > Excellent skills. Very good time management. I could tell that they were interested in my being happy with their work. I would recommend them and hire them again. **★★★ — jameslwilgus, July 2014** > Advertises as a diversified contractor, but when I asked them to repair a cupola while here doing other work, I was told they don't do any roofing work. Strange! **★★★★★ — flightygirl, March 2014** > Trevor was great.......worked very well with my flooring folks......very seemless and professional. would recommend highly. He suggested that we install crown molding and it was the very best advice.....made our rooms look spectacular **★★★★★ — flynntwin, Feb. 2014** > 1\. great experience, highly recommend! very professional, clean, quick and cost effectctive. the job started on time, finished on time and we added extra along the way with no hassle **★★★★★ — Riley Vann, Jan. 2014** > We have had Monk's do a number of projects us over the past 6 years and they have completed each one on budget, on time, and without a single hiccup. They do a wide variety of work and would highly recommend letting them come give you an estimate whatever home project you have planned. **★★★★★ — Christine Whitehead, Jan. 2014** > Great service...used them for painting. Excellent work and I would definitely recommend them. Project was completed in a timely manner with professionalism. **★★★★★ — Liz, Aug. 2013** > They did a very good job -the workmen were very tidy, kept the environment were clean, were on-time and nice guys. Kurt is great. > Customer service and professionalism were very refreshing ! **★★★★★ — kathayorn, Aug. 2013** > I have work with Monk's for several years. They have painted most of my house, inside and out, and I've just contracted them to finish my basement. They are reliable, clean, and will fix anything that is not done right the first time. A pleasure to work with. **★★★★★ — lrcdesign, Aug. 2013** > Monk's painted the exterior of our home last year and refinished a large (1000 sq. ft) wraparound porch. They did a beautiful job and cleaned up quickly and thoroughly. I would definitely recommend them and will use them again in the future. **★★★★★ — waynep7720, July 2013** > Very professional and provided service beyond my expectations. Showed up on time for original quote and final pricing ended up exactly in line with original quote. Crew showed up for the job on time everyday and worked throughout the day. Meticulous care was taken with removal of wall hangings and television and kitchen was covered and uncovered everyday. Very happy with the work performed. **★★★★★ — pagano52458, July 2013** > I had beautiful wood built-ins put in my living room by Monks home-improvement. The detail of the work is superb. They made sure everything was exactly how I wanted it, and I change my mind daily! They were respectful of my house, neat and clean and arrived when they said they would. > I highly recommend this company **★★★★ — madisonsam, Oct. 2012** > We have used Monks several times. Our most recent project involved refinishing our floors and painting some inside of our house. > > These guys answer their phones, show up on time and give you a quote on their first visit. Then they started on time and finished on time. > > They weren't the cheapest way to go, but they were the only company I found that could handle the painting, floors and carpentry without subbing everything out. We felt it was worth the money to have one company running the entire project and we were right. ## Selected projects - [Addition and Kitchen Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/addition-and-kitchen-renovation-pj-vj~2152623) - Location: Madison, NJ - Photos: 9 - Description: This perfectly located Madison home had everything the homeowners wanted, except for a large eat-in kitchen.

A: Hi Katie, I'm sorry, we don't have a record available. If you take the picture to your local paint store they may be able to help match it for you. **Q: Where do you purchase your picture frame moulding?** *(in Photo Questions)* Can only find preassembled picture frame/panel moulding. Can you please tell me where to purchase the type you used in several pictures? A: We buy the wood trim pieces (typically come in 16' lengths) at a lumberyard and then cut everything to size to fit the space. Then we paint everything. **Q: Windows** *(in Photo Questions)* How was your window project, we are considering them for a 14 window replacement job. A: William, I assume you want to hear from the customer, not Monk's. We can provide you with some contact details for window customers if you'd like to speak to some. **Q: Floor** *(in Photo Questions)* Where are these tiles from and how much per square foot? A: The homeowners did not purchase these through us, so unfortunately, we don't have the details. Good luck with your project! **Q: love these! where I could buy them? or are they custom?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Thanks! These were custom built to fit in a customer's entryway. A cubby for each family member's coats, bags and shoes. If you are in northern New Jersey, we'd love to build something similar for you! -Ty Monk --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
