Each time I hire Yamil (the owner) for a project (this is my third time hiring him), I'm in awe of the work done and always end up thinking the same thing: "Is there anything this man can't do, or doesn't do to perfection?" My main project this time involved reframing a very badly framed door and garage door using weather-resistant wood composite that I don't have to paint every other year. Results exceed my expectations, and make my house look very, very good. In passing, Yamil noticed that my garage door seals needed to be replaced and replaced them, and while walking around the property, he also noticed a bay window with some damage on top. I though he would simply patch the bad areas so the water wouldn't get in, but he ended up covering the entire top of the bay window with some attractive aluminum (?) covering that looks like a million bucks. What I like about him (besides the fact that he's honest, hard working, clean and very competitively priced), is that you don't need to stay on top of him, spend hours explaining your vision, or double-check his work. No matter what needs to be done, and what you think it's going to look like when finished, it's always look better and can you can be confident that quality work was done! I just wished the last owners of our house before had used him!!! Because we've spent the last 15 years repairing the work of bad carpenters/handymen/plumbers/electricians, and now that we see what work well done should be like, we want the whole house to match!
Description of Work: I had a door and a garage door reframed with weather-resistant composite wood.

Yamil, the owner, and one worker worked for 4 days on our roof, removing and replacing old shingles with 40-year warranty shingles. We also had some of the wood trims covered with white aluminum so we don't have to paint again, and the flashing around the chimney replaced with copper flashing at Yamil's suggestion as there were some water infiltrations through the old flashing. Work was done to satisfaction and the property was left clean. Grounds and planting were protected during work. We're very happy with the results. Yamil was able to save us some money by replacing only the plywood that needed to be replaced, and went above and beyond fixing areas that previous roofing companies had butchered. He seems very knowledgeable about roofing (his first trade, from what I understand) and did/fixed a lot of things that we wouldn't have thought about. He also gave us plenty of color options for shingles.
Description of Work: Replaced roof shingles; covered wood trims with painted aluminum; replaced chimney flashing.

I liked that they were clean and they worked well. The quality of the job was high. They were reasonably priced and very honest. They cleaned up after the job was done, and I will definitely be calling them for more work.

We contacted Norwalk Home Remodelling and Repair based on a reference from friends who live in Norwalk. The owner, Yamil Piand ntilde;a, had replaced their roof, and they were very impressed with how good it looked and how clean they left their property. And because it's a new business, the price was very reasonable as well. Our roof needed some cosmetic repairs (rotten moldings under roof and front moldings infested with holes from carpenter bees). Yamil recommended alternate materials (which we wouldn't have thought about) that would be more durable. He replaced all the moldings and covered the wood facade with white aluminum facing to prevent further damage from bees. While on the roof, he noticed some damage wich could lead to leaks during the winter and repaired them at very little extra cost. He also pointed out some areas that the last people we hire to work on our roof overlooked (or sabotaged). Long story short, we need a new roof... and Norwalk Home Remodelling and Repair will be doing it for us. As our friends, we were very impressed with the level of cleanliness the house was left in. Last time we had people work on our roof, we had to pick up nails from the lawn/ground for months. Yamil left everything spotless, and even used a metal detector with magnet to look for stray nails and metal pieces. We learned that although his personal business is new, he's been working as a contractor for over 15 years. Although he specializes in roofing and carpentry, he can do pretty much anything from installing kitchens or new floors to retiling an entire bathroom. We found his prices to be very competitive and hope they'll stay this way as his business grows.
Description of Work: Replaced roof/siding moldings; repaired roof until we can afford to replace; installed aluminum coverings on some moldings to prevent carpenter bees to access the structure.
