Ted and his team are the real deal. We hired them to completely renovate our master bathroom and they were professionals throughout the process. They also helped us lay down our new laminate throughout the bedroom and hallway and everyone comments on how spectacular the laminate looks.
Ted and his team completed the project on time and were even willing to help us out with some follow-​up work afterwards. They were flexible when we ended up hating the ugly color (that WE had picked) in the bathroom and agreed to repaint it.
Ted’s voicemail is often full (as someone mentioned in a previous review) but he always replies to texts.
I can’t say enough about Cummings Home Improvements! They pay attention to the details and complete their work in a timely fashion.

My wife and I are planning some significant renovations to our home, and we were interested in going through Cummings’ company in order to do so. Well, we sent our first email one month ago and received no response. Sent our second email 2 weeks ago and received no response. When we call, there is no answer and the voice mailbox is full. I can update my review when I hear back from them, but I’m not holding my breath.

I can’t say enough good things about this company. My neighbor and I recently hired Ted and his team to replace our front porch, and we couldn’t be happier with the finished product. From start to finish, Ted was professional and maintained excellent communication with us. Costs were very reasonable for the beautiful work they did, and Ted was more than willing to work with us on tricky scheduling matters. The most pleasant surprise was how reliable they were – no mysterious delays or hidden costs of any kind.
If you’re looking for quality craftsmanship from a reliable professional, hire Ted and his staff. I’m already looking forward to my next project with them!

Cummings Home Improvement are our go-​to guys for any project around our home. Their prices are very reasonable, they always meet the timeline designated on their contract and offer great advice when starting to develop a project.
We’ve used Cummings Home Improvement to replace gutters, a back door and most recently, our front door. We are very satisfied with the work they’ve done and have received several compliments from our neighbors as well.
Overall, Cummings Home Improvement is a great company. They are honest, great to work with, and very responsive. We highly recommend them to all our friends and family.

We contacted Cummings with a short deadline and a deck in need of some big repairs. Ted was terrific. He was professional, always returned my calls and gave us a great quote. So much so that we asked him to do more than we originally set out to do. The workmanship is flawless. We are thrilled with our deck. We have received many compliments and will be contacted Cummings on our next project. I cannot give a higher recommendation!

I needed a porch rebuilt and I called several contractors. I found Ted on the internet and was a bit concerned because I didn’t know him. As soon as I met Ted, I knew he was the one for the job! What stood out most for me was Ted’s follow-​through! He has excellent customer service skills and was always available. I would highly recommend Ted for any job. The porch came out beautiful, everyone that see’s it loves his work! All my neighbors admire my new porch and the job he did! Thanks Ted!

What can I say… Amazing company & people! Ted and his team did a fantastic job, always professional and on time, which means a lot when your working with contractors. Ted was always in contact with us with our concerns and if we had questions he was open and understanding since we were on a budget. If I had question on anything I could email Ted and he would get back to me with in 24 hours or less with answers.
We just love our new porch and mud room, it makes the house look like new! We will use Ted for any other renovations in the future.

My wife and I cannot thank Cummings Home Improvements for the remarkable job they did on our house addition! First of all, the owner Ted is one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. His attention to detail far out passes anyone out there. Everyone in his team was very nice and more importantly, trustworthy. Ted was available throughout the entire process, which is something I value very much. We had an addition done to our house, which included a master bedroom, master bathroom and turned our old bedroom into our baby’s room. Ted was very meticulous in every aspect. Ted met with us several times throughout make sure we knew what was happening. The service was very reasonable, timely, and efficient. There was so much quality and care put in and all of the little details truly stand out. Ted’s ideas were fantastic and the work they’ve done was flawless .
I would absolutely recommend Ted and his amazing crew to anyone in the area. He is the go-​to guy for your entire home needs. I would definitely go with Cummings for any of my remodeling’s in the future. Again, thank you SO much for all you’ve done for my family!

We highly recommend Cummings Home Improvement as a reliable home improvement company for any project. Our first home project with Cummings Home Improvement goes back to 2004. We had in mind to add an entryway on the front side of the house. We called in five contractors, and Ted Cummings was among of them. We had been disappointed by the reluctance of four of the contractors to do this project due to the non-​traditional way the house was built. Ted Cummings was the only contractor who loved the challenge of modifying the house structure in order to have a nice entryway built in. His design proved to be deeply thought and promising in creating the entryway as a natural extension of the living room. He is an honest professional. His work was of fine quality and reasonably priced. In the end, the entryway design provided us with extra space and a more beautiful look of the house, in general. Any customer will be very happy by choosing him, and he will always work hard to satisfy the customer demands to the detail. Along the years, we worked with Cummings Home Improvement on all other house projects. Ted and his crew remodeled the entire house: the kitchen, the bathroom, and the bedrooms. Our house looks like new and we enjoy living in it!

I would absolutely recommend Cummings Home Improvement. Ted and his crew have done several jobs for me in the past. Installed a screen door, built a beautiful shed and just recently fixed the front of my house after an ant problem. Ted came to check out what was going on and found most of the front of my house completely soaked through all the wood and ants eating it. He tore down the front of my house, replaced it with new wood, got rid of my ant problem and this all happened in two days time. He is efficient and affordable but most of all dependable.
Thanks Cummings Home Improvement!
