Last 6 months: 12 reviews, 0 negative. ## The honest read A roof inspection that turns up storm damage, an insurance claim handled for the homeowner, and a new roof — that is the job several of International Home Improvement's 2026 Google reviewers describe. The Beacon Falls company does roofing, gutters, siding and remodeling, and reviewers name Julio and Maria; a 2025 reviewer called Julio the owner. Its Connecticut home improvement contractor registration, HIC.0656563, is active, held by International Home Improvement LLC. Recent customers write in detail about the insurance work. In a June 2026 review, a homeowner said Julio Loja inspected their 20-year-old roof, helped with the paperwork and dealt directly with the insurance adjuster; the crew covered plants, a pergola and the deck with tarps and swept the yard with magnets for nails. An October 2026 reviewer said the team advocated with their insurer, and a September 2026 customer said a free inspection found storm damage they would never have known about, with no sales pressure. In August 2026, a homeowner said Maria and Julio's crew replaced their roof and coordinated removing and reinstalling solar panels on the timeline they gave. A Thumbtack reviewer that month said the crew came the same day when a roof leak reached the living room ceiling. The winter brought different work. In February 2026, several Google and Thumbtack reviewers described snow and blizzard cleanup done the same day they called; one New Britain customer said the crew sent before and after photos. A February 2026 reviewer had drywall and paint repaired after an ice dam. Earlier, a June 2024 review described a kitchen renovation with cabinets, tile floor, backsplash and countertops. In a March 2026 1-star Thumbtack review, a customer said the company came for an estimate, then never came or responded when they called to hire. It holds 5 stars from 49 Google ratings and 4.7 from 35 on Thumbtack, with written reviews from 2023 to 2026. **Strengths:** - Insurance claims — several reviewers say the team dealt with their adjuster - Careful cleanup — a 2026 reviewer described tarps and a magnet sweep - Same-day calls — 2026 reviewers describe same-day leak and snow help **Concerns:** - No-show after estimate — a 2026 Thumbtack reviewer got no response ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - Connecticut home improvement contractor registration HIC.0656563 is active under International Home Improvement LLC _(confidence: high)_ - [State License Registry](https://www.elicense.ct.gov/Lookup/LicenseLookup.aspx) — “CT hic license HIC.0656563 registry-verified active — registry holder of record: INTERNATIONAL HOME IMPROVEMENT LLC” - Julio is named as the owner in a 2025 review _(confidence: medium)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnTUR3b1AyM3FRRRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0xed31794aa9aa7d03!3m1!1s2@1:CIHM0ogKEICAgMDwoP23qQE%7C%7C?hl=en-US) — “5★ Great company!
