Harry is THE MAN!
What makes Harry different is that he is a contractor WITH A BRAIN! He thinks on the spot and problem solves. If there is a pipe behind a wall that we weren't expecting to be there, he quickly figures out a great solution to ensure our original plans still work out.
We hired Harry and his team to do a gut renovation - merging two apartments into one on the upper west side.
It involved ripping out the old floor tiles, removing all walls, gutting a kitchen and turning it into a bathroom, redoing all electrical and plumbing, installing new wood flooring, custom building and installing all new closets, building all new walls, installing all custom doors and door frames, all electrical work and of course painting the entire place.
HARRY HAS FANTASTIC ATTENTION TO DETAIL AND CARES: No matter if it was about altering the design of a door frame to ensure it wouldn't crack down the line or anything minor, Harry cares and wants to make sure it is done properly and in a way that would make me happy to live there.
HARRY PUTS IN THE EXRTA EFFORT: As an example, he and his team carried 12 foot long pieces of wood up 10+ flights of stairs (wouldn't fit in the elevator) to ensure when the wood was installed, there would be less number of joints than if he had simply purchased 8 foot long pieces and used the elevator (which is what our last contractor did 5 years ago).
COMMUNICATION: Harry was always easily reachable on the phone and was on site a couple days each week. Whenever I told him I would be in to check on the place, he would be there and walk through with me.
TIMELINE: I gave Harry a challenge - gut renovate and merge two apartments to create a three bedroom, three bathroom apartment. Do it with great detail and everything was to be custom made, from the kitchen to the book shelves to the reading nook area, built-in office desk and all closets. Oh, and do it within 4 months... He did it. Despite the challenges of renovating during covid and having limits on the number of workers in the apartment, he managed to deliver on time. This is a testament to Harry's commitment to his clients, his dedication and accountability.
PAINTING: I haven't seen anyone paint like this before. Despite putting up all new walls, Harry had his team spend ~2 weeks compounding, sanding, flattening, and all over again, multiple times, so that each wall was as smooth as a baby's bottom. They also smoothed all my metal window frames that had ~40 years of paint layers built-up on them. Needless to say the final paint job came out really nice.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so I'll post a number of pictures so you can see for yourself his final work.
Thanks for the great work to you and the team Harry

These guys are fantastic! Joe was wonderful to work with, as was everyone on the team he manages. They were communicative and responsive, they showed up on time and did an amazing job. Our house looks like a new house!
We hired them for a front porch rehab and exterior painting and everything was done to code, with the proper permits, and executed with professionalism. And they finished the project on time! A++. Highly recommend.
Our porch was in extremely bad shape and required a very complicated series of fixes, which we were already aware of after having hired an independent structural specialist who detailed everything that needed to be replaced, to bring it up to code. In addition to the termite damage, rot damage and poor construction of our original porch, we made the mistake of initially hiring a different contractor, who scammed us and damaged the porch even further, making the rehab even more challenging. Joe's team tackled the project and got it done! Joe made sure everything was done exactly as we'd requested -- and now we just love looking at our house. It's so cute!!!
