What Client's Say

Bottom line… these guys know their stuff!  They answered all my questions politely and in depth. They are professional and punctual, do what they say they’re going to do and when. It took approximately six hours from start to finish to install these big and tall windows.  I would definitely hire them again to do other work.

It turned out great. They came in and came up with great ideas. They were not the lowest bidder, but we felt that they had taken everything into consideration. The sub-contractors that came in to do cabinets, tile floor, granite, plumbing and the radiant heat flooring all did a great job. I was kept informed the whole time which I appreciated.

I contacted L.R. Higgins for a quote and got a quick response. I got three estimates and L.R. Higgins, by far, was the most fair. It took one week to complete and once they started things went very smoothly, they showed up on time, they were very polite and professional and kept things very neat and clean during the whole process. They left notes to keep me updated on what they had done and what they were going to do next and would call me if they had any questions regarding the work. I am VERY happy with the finished product and it looks better than I had hoped…they did a wonderful job! I will definitely use L.R. Higgins again and will tell everyone I know about them as well. Thank you Eric and to all the great people who worked on my bathroom!

We’re very happy with the project and are looking forward to settling in and enjoying our new home. You guys do good work, and we wouldn’t hesitate to hire you another time.

Eric and his crew were very professional and responsive. We had a total remodel of a bathroom in our rental unit. Living out of state we had concerns but Eric stayed in contact with us and went above and beyond our expectations. The work was done on time, within budget and in a quality manner. We would use him again without question.

Eric and his crew were great. From the initial contact to the completion of the project, Eric was in touch with me every step of the way. Email was easier for me to communicate with Eric and once I decided on the product I wanted to use, Eric sent me emails on when he and his crew were going to start the project. Eric and his crew cleaned up every day to make sure the worksite was safe for people to walk around the worksite. The deck looks great and family and friends have enjoyed the deck over the summer. I would definitely use Eric and his crew again. Eric and his crew made this a stress-free project and I was happy I chose Eric and his crew.

LR Higgins did a great job! Their estimate was fair. They told me of the time line and followed it closely. Neighbors have seen their work and were impressed at Higgins workmanship. They were excellent. They were punctual and I felt that their price was fair. My sister has also used them and was very satisfied. All of the Higgins were very professional.

These guys were warm, smart, reasonable, professional, and punctual. The work was done efficiently, thoughtfully, and quickly, and they thought about what they were doing as if they were working on their own homes, and were very sensitive to the fact that the house was being lived in, conscientiously cleaning up at the end of each day’s work. They know their stuff, and are a delight to work with.

From the moment that Eric Higgins came to our home, we experienced not only his professional approach, but his caring regards to what and why we were needing to make the changes. When Dean and his wonderful crew of young men arrived, we knew that we were in good hands and that our home would be well taken care of. From the very first day, with all of the removing of the old items, by the end of the day … our home was cleaned up and ready to be lived in for the evening. This was a daily occurrence, even with all of the work that had to be done. The crew was always respectful of our home that was not being worked on…. Working with Dean was a joy, he always asked if we liked what was happening and wanted to make sure we were happy with each step. We felt like the guys became part of our family. They were all polite, worked well together (which BTW is a HUGE thing when wanting to accomplish the same goals), happily doing their work, listened and talked with us on a daily basis. It was actually quite sad when they left, as it had become an expected part of our day. But when they had to leave … they left our home in the most beautiful way. The changes brought elegance to our country home and has been such a blessing to enjoy. So many that come to visit have expressed how different and beautiful the changes made have enhanced the charm of our home. We not only know that we made the right choice in calling you … But we feel we had made new and precious friendships.

It went great. I found them on Angie’s List so I figured that it would. They got it all done in one day so it was done when I got home. The trim they put on the bottom of the room looks incredibly professional. I would use them again in a heartbeat.

Eric responded promptly to all my questions. The work area was always clean at the end of the day. The quality of the work was very good. Very accommodating. All in all, an excellent experience!

We live in Louisville, KY and wanted a deck built [in Maine]. We had some specific size and height requirements because we wanted to put a screen enclosure on the deck. I had several discussions with Eric and they proceeded with the work and completed it well with the deadline. The deck is beautiful and sturdy. We put our screen enclosure on the deck and it fit perfectly with no issues. Eric was easy to work with and kept us up to date on progress. Since we were in Louisville, our distance from the project could have created issues but Eric communicated regularly. It’s well-built and sturdy and will probably last past the life of the camper it’s attached to! I would heartily recommend Eric and his crew. Excellent job!

Our project was complex and lengthy, and involved a lot of sub-contractors, and the work was excellent across the board. Dean, especially, made numerous on-the-spot suggestions for improving on the design and execution that worked out great. The work crew was friendly and respectful, left the house in good shape each day they were here, and it was actually enjoyable to have them around. The sub-contractors were all skilled, friendly, and easy to be with, came when expected and handled unexpected snafus with ease. The work turned out super, greatly improved the house in all the ways we hoped. Great work, high quality. Highly recommend.

It was a pleasure working with Eric Higgins and his associates. The work was excellent and was completed on schedule. They were very fair in dealing with issues that arose during the remodel (the work was performed on a house built in 1925). I highly recommend L.R. Higgins, Inc. to anyone considering any type of remodel. I will be contacting Eric again when I am ready to do additional work on the house.

Eric and team were highly qualified. Professional, highly qualified, courteous, and trustworthy; I would gladly hand them the keys to my elderly Mom’s home, and let them go to work without a second thought or worry. Eric and his folks provided awesome design and construction advice, even after losing the contract! Good people, doing good work, for a good price … can’t ask for more!

Thank you, our kitchen was a big hit with the family. More important is that my husband and I love how it has turned out. I hated the demo chapter but your workers were great and the finished product speaks volumes.

We found the LR Higgins crew to be helpful, respectful, professional and personable. They provided a quick and fair estimate and worked on my schedule to complete the work. The bathroom was old and badly in need of repair. They gave us a reasonable allowance to choose fixtures and materials. The bathroom looks great and they finished on schedule! We would hire them again in a heartbeat!

It was a great experience. Eric or Dean called me with any questions. It takes me a while to speak up, but I am very comfortable with both men. I really had no bad experiences throughout the whole experience. I highly recommend Eric and his team.

These guys are fantastic: prompt, professional, reasonably priced, and sensitive to the homeowner’s needs.

Our house was built in the late 1700s and has many of the vagaries of houses that old. Dean understood and foresaw the problems that can arise in a 200+ year old house, and he gave the job the care and consideration he would have used in his own home, coming up with novel, thoughtful, and suitable solutions to several unforeseen problems that arose. We were consulted every step of the way, and were offered advice when we requested it. Between them, Eric and Dean made sure that the plumber and electrician did their jobs to the highest standard and carefully watched over the installation of the floor, appliances, and countertops. We were extremely pleased with their professionalism, work ethic, and the quality of their work and plan on working with them again for several other projects we have planned. They’re the best we’ve ever had do work for us!

I received an estimate from one other company. Eric and Dean had a much better idea for how to do the renovations and the price was much less. On the day that they came, they ran into several problems. These problems were handled with amazing professionalism and skill. I thought for sure that the extra work was going to cost me extra, but when I received the bill, it was for exactly what I was quoted. I was very pleased with the quality and result of the work that was done. The men were on time, and finished promptly. They were neat and cleaned up before leaving. I was VERY happy with the work and I will definitely use them again.
