This company is not being honest.
by Jane

This company is not being honest. They said it's free but then it's $10,000. I wouldn't have signed up if I knew it would be expensive. Be upfront about the cost.

by Coombs

I waz tryin' t' find out how much a seasonal "HVAC system check-up" costs, not a replacement. But I couldn't find that option. I seen offers <$100 for a check-up in ads, but this estimator doesn't give that.

website didn't have a filter
by Tina S

I wanted to find out how much it would cost to replace my entire roof, including the decking. However, the website didn't have a filter or any way to calculate that cost. It would've been better if there were more options available.

The company's estimate for
by Richard

The company's estimate for installing an air conditioner was supposed to provide a clear idea of costs. However, the estimate is too vague and relies solely on the size of the AC unit, rendering it practically useless.

The company's website lacks information
by Anonymous

The company's website lacks information on converting a tub to a walk-in shower with a bench, leaving us uncertain about the potential cost. The absence of this option is inconvenient, as my husband faces mobility challenges. Improved accessibility details would enhance the user experience and assist potential customers in making informed decisions.

Hey there! The HVAC replacement
by Mark Mazurowski

Hey there! The HVAC replacement estimator offers a handy "I'm not sure" option, which was exactly what I was looking for. The process was straightforward and smooth. I'd suggest giving it a shot.

Enough is enough! The incessant barrage
by Funneemunkee Chase

Enough is enough! The incessant barrage of spam calls from this company for months is beyond irritating. Despite blocking and sending explicit messages, they persist like relentless pests. This company's approach is nothing short of garbage, and their persistence in bothering me is downright infuriating. It's time to clean up your act and respect people's privacy.

Seeking to upgrade my shower/tub combo,
by Lexi B

Seeking to upgrade my shower/tub combo, I relied on Modernize for estimates, quoting a maximum of 6.8k. Unfortunately, the reality was disappointing. The contractors linked by Modernize not only scoffed at the quote but demanded double for a basic replacement. This experience has left me frustrated, with a barrage of unaffordable business calls as a result.

by John DePaola

I told them to lay off the messages, but nope, they just keep bugging me. Super unprofessional move. Not a fan of being bothered after I've made it crystal clear I want some peace and quiet. Hope they get the message this time!

by Ellen Defilippo

I found their calculator to be extremely helpful in gaining a clear understanding of the costs associated with my home renovation. The way vendors reached out was particularly noteworthy, as it was considerate of those who prefer not to be inundated with constant calls. I appreciate the thoughtful approach to communication. Without a doubt, I will be returning to this site for my future projects.

As an older person, I really appreciate when things are kept simple. Your website was so easy to use and saved me a lot of time. I've been looking into this for months and have had several companies come into my home for estimates, but your website has provided me with all the information I need to plan better. Thank you so much!

Fingers crossed!
by Kim B

I didn't have to give any of my personal info and that's like a dream come true. So I'm thinking about their project, ya know? But I have no idea how much it's gonna set me back. And I'm not even close to needing to chat with suppliers or contractors. And let's be real, I don't want my phone blowing up with a bunch of annoying calls. Can't wait to see how this all pans out. Fingers crossed!

SCAM
by Pamela S

don't even bother clicking on that link. It's supposed to be for seniors to get help fixing up their bathrooms and getting grants, but when you open it, there's like nothing related to that. It's a total waste of time. Just find another company, this one's a scam.
