Most unprofessional attitude, I went with another company . Yes Mr Santorum there's no mistake it was your company. Theres no record of me because I refused to do buisness with someone discussing politics instead of buisness .
Working with the Santoro team has been a complete pleasure. Tony D'Agostino is a highly knowledgeable expert, whose professional approach helped us through a number of renovations after moving into a new property. His team of contractors, in particular Ian, were charming, hardworking and skilled. We look forward to working with Santoro on further projects and would highly recommend them to anyone.
As a vendor (Bender Plumbing) partnering with Tony at Santoro Home Improvements, I've been impressed with his professionalism and commitment to his customers. He communicates effectively, manages projects with care, and ensures every detail is handled with quality in mind. It's clear he values long-term relationships and consistently goes above and beyond to deliver outstanding results.
I so enjoy the fortuitous partnership that's grown with Tony at Santoro over the years. Together we craft beautiful and functional kitchens for his clients. He's both responsive and reasonable, and quite easy to work with. I'd love to clone him!
We have done several projects with Santoro, including finishing our basement, putting up a semi-temporary wall to create an office space (we wanted the ability to easily take the wall down in 5 years or so without having destroyed the room), and replacing a staircase. All of the projects came out great. You can tell the team takes pride in the deails and craftmanship, and we're thrilled with the new spaces they've created for us. Highly recommend.
