Beantown Home Improvements Community & Charity Involvement
BEANTOWN Home Improvements isn’t just involved with roofing, siding, windows, doors, and decks. No, we feel very fortunate to be where we are today and as such, we try to give back to the community and several charities whenever possible. Helping our service men and women is of major importance to the owner Jim DelPrete and he is constantly trying to help those who have afforded us the freedoms we have today.
Below is a list of just some of the events we have been involved with and partake in.
Working with Our Deployed
BEANTOWN Home Improvements took a leap of faith on this one, especially being a small company. The homeowner’s husband is deployed and they were having serious leaks in the roof. The funding for this project was entirely coming from donated sources such as the VFW Yuengling Beer and several other sources, long after the roof was to be done! Beantown stepped up and installed the roof without receiving any money whatsoever, knowing that donations would come in from sources over the next 6 months.
2022 Sponsorship – Middleboro Youth Softball
We couldn’t be more excited to continue serving our community by sponsoring the Middleboro Youth Softball Team in 2022!
2020 Habitat for Humanity Project – Plymouth
It’s a new year but the same great Beantown crew. We were in Plymouth, MA at the Habitat for Humanity project off Long Pond Road on Tuesday 1/14/2020. We donated the material and labor to a much-deserving Veteran and her family – check out the excerpt below. No matter the roof, we are always using the best materials on the market, which is Owens Corning. The color installed here is Driftwood. The Beantown crew wants to thank Tracy for her sacrifices and duty to this great Nation. We also wish her and her family a Happy New Year with new beginnings.
Tracy served 9 years in the Air Force and 6 years in the Army Reserve. She served 6 tours overseas. She left the military to adopt her 2 young cousins who were 9 and 11 at the time. They are now 16 and 14. Tracy and her boys will receive the 3-bedroom ranch. #BeantownHI #OwensCorning #Driftwood
In early 2017 BEANTOWN Home Improvements launched what it hopes to be a yearly event in which we will give away a brand new roof of 20 square (2000sf of actual roof area) to an American Veteran (US Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marines, Navy) FREE of charge. The below roof was installed on November 15th, 2017 in Abington and this program will continue to run on an annual basis.
The below Owens Corning roof in Driftwood was installed on November 23rd, 2018 in Bridgewater.
The below Owens Corning roof in Estate Gray was installed on November 16th, 2019 in Whitman.

November 20, 2016 Veteran Surprise
To us every day is Veteran’s Day and today we visited Webster Rehab and South Shore Rehab in Rockland to pay tribute to 32 of our American Veterans.
Beantown partnered with Ken Blanchard at Soldier and Family Services to get the sizes of 32 of our veterans. Ken does all the legwork getting their sizes and then brands the bags with Beantown’s information who sponsors all of the clothing. These veterans had no idea we were coming today and it brought tears to their eyes, and ours. Each receives a veteran knit hat, 2 veteran t-shirts with American Flags on them, a veteran sweatshirt and 2 pairs of socks.
We do this to show our sincere appreciation for their service and was truly an honor to meet all of them. Their service ranged from WWII, Korean War, Vietnam, and Iraqi war veterans. Men and women alike. We truly thank you all for your service.

We had Beantown come to repair an area on the roof near the flashing around the chimney. Upon inspection they found another small area that had some rotting due to water, in most cases you would think a huge headache but not with Beantown. … More They were able to obtain the extra supplies they needed and do this repair all in the same day for an affordable and very fair price!! We also had them install a ridge vent and we couldn’t be more happy. Beantown offers reliable, honest and great quality work. I also was overly impressed with how Jim and Eli took the time to share their knowledge and explain everything so you could really understand how everything worked and appreciate the quality of it. Will definitely use Beantown again in the future!! Call them! You won’t be disappointed!!

Beantown installed a new roof, 2 skylights & gutter guards onto our raised ranch. We couldn’t ask for better results! After receiving 5 estimates from different companies, Beantown was selected due to the products offered, stellar … More reviews, & overall price. The project manager, Derek Straughn, took lots of time explaining all the products & steps that would be taken on the day of installation. He offered loads of necessary information as well as being a good listener to our needs & pocketbook! The total job was impressively completed in one day! The crew stayed focused & professional the entire day! Clean up was impeccable!

My husband and I hired Beantown Home Improvements to redesign our front porch and extend our roof to cover it and also reshingle our entire roof. We are both extremely happy with the work. Everyone we've talked to says it looks like … More the new work has always been there. Jim was extremely responsive to all of our questions and concerns and both crews (the construction crew and the roofing crew) were extremely professional. The project start date was unfortunately delayed a few times, but it was well worth the wait and, once the work started, easy to see why - the crews care far more about doing the work right than doing it fast, and that's a tradeoff we'd take any day.
