Smarter Home Inc. is a Cape Cod exterior-remodeling contractor that its website says is owner-operated by Richard DeNardo, focused on vinyl siding, windows, doors and sliders, decks and custom aluminum and PVC trim. The site calls it a second-generation business, and DeNardo states over 20 years of installation experience. Its stated service area covers Bourne, Sandwich, Falmouth, Mashpee, Barnstable, Hyannis, Dennis and Yarmouth. A 2026 Google customer said Rich replaced water-damaged sheathing and support studs in several places and fixed a long-time leak. That 2026 customer said the lights were remounted on fabricated blocks and the gutters were remounted with better pitch to keep water flowing to the downspout. The same 2026 customer said a quote from a larger company was significantly higher, and that Rich gave them a fair price. A 2025 Google customer said Richard installed replacement windows and re-sided their home. A 2025 Google reviewer said Rich, the owner, did the work himself, showed up early and left no trace when he left. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, number 188680, is active on the state registry.

Rich was recommended, but I did get another quote from a larger co that was significantly higher. He gave us a fair price. Rich did an amazing job and his work is impeccable. He was able to replace water damaged sheathing and support studs in several places. He also fixed a long time leak. His knowledge and skill are outstanding and Rich can adjust as he goes if needed. The siding looks fantastic, all lights remounted on fabricated blocks and the gutters were remounted with better pitch to keep water flowing properly to downspout. Ala in all, Rich was a pleasure to work with and we are ecstatic with the results.
We had Richard install replacement windows, and re side our home earlier this year. We couldn’t be happier with the work that he did. He’s honest, trustworthy, reliable and he does great work. We would not hesitate to use him for any future projects, and we recommend him to anyone looking for a contractor on the Cape.
Rich, the owner, does the work himself, shows up on-time (early actually!), is fairly priced, involves you in the details and steps of the process, leaves no trace when he leaves, and most importantly does high quality work! Can’t think of much else I could want in my contractor!
