Best Bathroom Remodeling in New York NY

I know, everyone says hire a licensed contractor that you've vetted by seeing their work in person.  And they say that for a reason, because my husband and I were really screwed over by an unlicensed guy who worked on our neighbor's house and really talked a good game.  But he messed up our house so badly.  He did stupid mistakes that even I knew were wrong (and I'm just an average DIYer).  It was a living nightmare to watch this guy and his workers break antique fixtures, refuse to repair mistakes they made, not build cabinets and walls to my specifications, and paint things incorrectly with gobs of expensive paint.  I was literally staying up late nights after they left to undo and redo these people's work.

So, you can imagine how relieved I was when we decided to fire that guy and look up on Yelp for someone new.   Harry came over right away to give an estimate and pointed out all the mistakes the nightmare contractor did.  He had great ideas for neatening up details to make everything look perfect and be built to last.   His estimate was a little more expensive than I expected, but pretty close to what we were paying before, and I could tell that Harry's expertise and work ethic were way above average.

Harry himself came by most of the time to do the work, with assistants and subcontractors who cared as much as he did.  He tiled an intricate backsplash, straightened walls, repaired several plumbing mistakes, and repaired cabinets (that my friends who are cabinet makers said would be nearly impossible/a total pain in the neck).  He and his workers always swept and vacuumed after themselves, which was such a relief after experiencing utter disarray with the last people.  And when a couple things were left unfinished or incorrectly done (some stains in our tub from the plumber, an unpainted sheetrock repair), Harry came by again until we were 100% satisfied in his work.  

It's really hard to find someone you can trust in the contracting world.   I've done several projects over a couple of homes and have seen the gamut of workers: cheap and shady, cheap and kind but not really great, expensive and shady, and then there's Harry (and Ariana in the office who deserves a shout out!), who stands by his workmanship and subcontractors and gets things done on time.  I wish I hired him first for every project we've done, and he will always be the first person I call from now on.

Ricardo has helped us a couple of times for plumbing needs, first with our toilet and then with our sink. He has been responsive, clear with pricing, punctual, and tidy both times. My wife and I would highly recommend him.

I met with the gentleman and at first wasn't sure who to go with had few other companies gave me estimates one actually a little cheaper but the way the guys at A&O responded to my needs and the urgency of my situation Let me say the professionalism was impeccable very glad I chose them even though I may have paid just a little more definitely worth every penny just the comfort and convenience knowing I don't have to get it done again is why I will be calling them up for my next project in our home I highly recommend these people they left my house looking better than when they came in my hat's off to those young men

After a valiant attempt to replace my shower faucets (where I managed to strip the faucet seat), I contacted Steve through Yelp. He called me back within a few minutes, and later that day he stopped by to take a look. To make a long story short, we now have a nice single-faucet shower thanks to Steve! Very reasonable pricing, incredibly quick responses to my questions, and he was knowledgeable and friendly!

Zach delivered excellent customer service. In his consultation, he was honest and realistic. I would recommend for any questions about plumbing or renovations in general. Even if you end up selecting another option, Zach is professional and understanding.

Came out 2 times and asked basically asked what I thought the problem was, even though I am not an expert. Overall their goal was to spend as least time as possible at the site to make the most money.. 2nd guy who came out was an expert but did nothing but spend half his time talking down to me because I was not smart enough to understand a boiler. (Steam heat is over 100 years old) After 20 mins of hubris, he decided there was nothing he could do. After talking to someone who knew less, he then decided to actually look at the boiler and then realized that there were problems. I am a tech myself who builds and fixes computers. If you make a housecall, the least you can do with a $125 min appearance fee is look at the device and run diagnostics on all parts. Of course they charged us the full price both times, even though the first tech didn't bother to check out the parts. Save your time and patience and choose a company that at least knows the definition of professionalism.
