Batrooms seemed to take a long time but the work was professionally done and they stand behind their work

First met with bathroom designer who talked with us on several occasions to assure all measurements were accurate and fixtures properly ordered. From day one, project boss controlled all aspects of bath breakdown, coordinating workers, dumpster on street, even port-o-potty. Every day proceeded smoothly without incidents. All bath fixtures were exactly as we ordered including floor and woodwork. Work took approximately 9 days and then final inspection by big boss (Jay Cipriani). Every worker who came in was professional and did their job well. Have absolutely no complaints and would gladly use them again.

Cipriani Remodelers were great. They came up with the idea to use small windows as a backsplash in order to be able to see out and allow light into the kitchen. They look fantastic!! The cabinets are gorgeous, trimmed with beautiful wood moulding. They will spend a lot of time helping you choose items every step of the way. At the start of the project, they put up plastic dust guards and completely enclosed the work area. Their carpenters show up on time every day and are very professional. The kitchen is stunning. I would highly recommend Cipriani for any remodeling job.

Excellent job! A complete kitchen renovation. The whole project started with a visit to our home and explaining their 10-step remodeling process plan. We explained what we wanted to do with our kitchen remodel. Our remodeling consultant took notes and then measured, photographed, sketched and noted all relevant areas necessary to the successful completion of our project. More meetings took place to look at sample rooms, 3D design of our project, selections of martials, colors, textures, etc. After our project plan was complete, work was started. First they established a dirt and dust protection around the work area. Interior demolition included removing existing kitchen cabinets, countertops, sink, faucet, and appliances. Then, removing floor covering, carpet, kitchen soffits, sheetrock, electrical, plumbing, half wall, and post. A new structural beam was then installed, followed by framing, electrical, plumbing, drywall, cabinetry, wood floor, counter tops, back splash tiling, final electrical, final plumbing, appliances, and interior paint. All well planned and shown on a timeline chart.

The attic remodel looks great. Cipriani made the attic into a guest bedroom/extra usable room. Jim Smith at Cipriani was our Project Manager and he did a great job (great attention to detail). However, I would not use Cipriani again.
Our attic had old wood paneling and gross ceilings and floors --- not a space you would want to spend any time in. We wanted to update it into a modern and usable room. We received 4 quotes (all much more expensive then we had expected) and Cipriani was no more/less then the other quotes. We decided to go with Cipriani for a handful of reason, some of which included:
(1) they gave us a 2-3 week timeframe for the completion of the project and said that they meet their deadline 90% of the time
(2) they were an actual company with a full staff that could be dedicated to our project -- ie not just a 1 contractor company
(3) they would coordinate the use of an outside plumber to bring heat up to the attic so that we didnt have to coordinate.
They did not come through on any of these counts.
The project took over 5 weeks to complete. Once we passed the 3 week deadline, Cipriani kept just saying it would take a few more days instead of re-evaluating the project and giving us a new (tangable) deadline. On most days, we only had 1 guy from Cipriani working on the project. Even as we approached the 3 week deadline, Cipriani didnt dedicate more workers to our project. The deadline came and went without anyone batting an eyelash. (Note: It did take 3 weeks to get the permit for the electrical work. However, it is not like everything else that could have been done without the permit was done. There was still a long list of things not completed that were totally unrelated to the electric work, permit or ceiling). In addition, we didnt have much demo (we laid the wall directly over the wood paneling), we didnt need to wait for appliances to be ordered and shipped and there were no weather delays ---- i.e. there was no outside reasons for the delay except for that Cipriani simply didnt calculate the correct deadline and didnt dedicate enough people to our project. This was a big project for us that cost alot of money for us and we felt like we were "small fries" for Cipriani. Lastly, we needed to bring heat up to the attic and we used Cipriani's plumber instead of finding our own bc then Cipriani would coordinate directly with the plumber and take us out of the process. Not the case. We had some issue with the heat/plumber. Cipriani was certainly helpful, but it was my husband calling the plumber when none of our heat would turn on and it was my husband coordinating with the plumber when he needed to come back into the house, ect. (Note: By the end of the project Jay Cipriani did get involved which def helped the process and quickly resolved the heat issue).
Therefore, although Cipriani did a nice job with the project, we would not use them again. I understand that any home project can get off track and can be a headache. However, I beleive that this project could have certainly been completed on time if Cipriani gave us the resources we thought we were signing up for.

"[member name removed], we appreciate your constructive criticism and your honesty. We take your comments to heart and apologize that we didn’t live up to your expectations. We take pride in our ability to stay on schedule and it remains true that we can do it 90% of the time. We made the mistake of rushing to start this job to try to get it done before your baby arrived and we didn’t expect for the permits to take as long as they did. We should have just waited until they were ready and started three weeks later but I guess we were overly optimistic on how long they would take. I’m not saying that the permits were to blame for the total delay and I agree that there were times when we could have had more people on the job to help the dedicated Project Manager move it along so you’re correct that we could have finished a little sooner if we were able to that. We ‘re not going to pass the blame onto anyone else, this is our fault. As for the plumbing experience, our intention was to save you a pretty good bit of money by having you work directly with our plumber which was supposed to mean that you would handle some of the communication, leg work, and pay the plumber directly but it sounds like you were expecting us to still do everything. Not sure how that misunderstanding came to be but I can see why that would upset you. We couldn’t turn back the clock and do it over but we thought that the $850 credit we gave you would help you feel better about the delay and our commitment to satisfy our customers. You are not “small fries” to us and I’m sorry we made you feel that way. You and your family are great people to work with and that’s all we can ask for. In the end our efforts to get the job done before your baby came and to save you some money obviously backfired on us and we accept full responsibility for not meeting your expectations. I hope that for many years going forward you will continue to enjoy your new space, the workmanship, and the value."

They were very professional and did everything that was required. What I liked best is everything is in writing and they are extremely responsive if any issues arise. All of the sub contractors were great. My supervisor Shawn was amazing, it isn't always easy having someone in your house for long periods of time. But this was not an issue. It was a pleasure working with them.
We had one small issue with a railing after the job was completed. They came back immediately and took care of everything.
I would highly recommend them for any job.

They are a first class company. They are very friendly, cooperative, and professional. They laid out a time frame, and they honored that to the minute. If there was something that we did not like, they were willing to go the extra mile for us. We have used them also prior to our kitchen remodel, for windows replacement. Since we were very pleased with them, after the kitchen remodel, we had them do our deck rebuild. In the future, Cipriani Remodeling Solutions is our number 1 choice Also, Cindy Cipriani is our planner and designer, and she is the best in her field.

Perfectly.
We had already had Cipriani builders renovate our home at a cost of $350,000 and were so happy with them that they were the only company we called to take a look at our next project.
I needed a new roof, windows, dormers and ancillaries on my pole barn/workshop.
They worked with me to fit the project within my budget but still give me everything I wanted.
The team that worked on the project were tidy and considerate.
The project went perfectly to plan with no issues what so ever.
The quality of the work was great, and the barn looks stunning. The work they did was in keeping with a classic red pole barn. I am very happy with how it turned out.
Whatever my next project is, I already know that Cipriani builders will be the contractors doing it for me.

Picking a contractor to rebuild our dream home is probably one of the hardest things I have ever done.
BEFORE I picked Cipriani to do our work we had more than 10 contractors come and give us quotes on our major project. They differed quite significantly in cost to the point that it was confusing. We ended up picking the one who looked the best and gave a decent price, only to be thoroughly let down.
We lost around $10,000 to a contractor who wasn't even on time for our initial meetings, and who had architectural plans drawn up at a significant cost that weren't what we wanted, and every time we asked for the changes we wanted it was ignored or not done. I got so frustrated that I made the decision not to continue with that company and started looking in much more detail about what we were doing. That led me to Cipriani Builders and the best choice I think I could have possibly made. They were recommended to me initially by word of mouth from an architect friend. They have been outstanding on a level that I simply did not think was possible with all of the stories I had heard about the construction industry.
I learned a lot as I lost that $10,000 mainly to pay attention to the quotes, the professionalism of the people, and most importantly for the final cost the details of what were and were not included.
My initial quote from Cipriani builders was significantly more expensive than any of the others I had. This made me nervous but as I went through it and compared them (I am an engineer so like to look at the details) it was obvious that Cipriani's quote included absolutely EVERYTHING and the price they showed me would be the price I paid for the job I wanted (barring any scary unforeseen surprises.)
When I looked at the quotes from other companies they were missing the details or materials and I would be expected to pay for those items separately. Also when I looked at the allowances in some of the other quotes they weren't realistic to the prices for materials I had already been looking for like hard wood flooring and tiling.
So I chose Cipriani. They gave me a very good (fast) time line for the project and I was worried it could be done on the schedule. It turned out that they were on schedule or ahead of it for the whole project. The only delay was our making due to a special tile we ordered for our kitchen floor that was late being delivered. Cipriani even worked hard and managed to catch up most of the delay!
An extremely valuable added benefit of working with Cipriani was Cindy Cipriani who really helped us with the interior design of our house. Her help in the vision, and materials selection has left us with our dream house that drops people's jaws when they walk in and get a tour. It was a huge value that was included in the overall cost of the project.
The crew of people that worked on our property were always thoughtful and gracious. It actually got to the point that when they finished and left we were sad to see them go and actually missed them after they had left!
In the 2+ years since the work was done we have had two small issues. One where a light fixture had condensation coming from it. Cipriani was there within days and fixed it with the addition of special insulation and it hasn't been an issue since. We also had a door that needed adjusting slightly and they were there the same day to fix it. The quality of their work has been outstanding and their response to help fix even the smallest of issues has been impressive. They stand by their work.
Quite simply I wouldn't go anywhere else for a contractor. We have already had them back to do more work for us with a roof on our barn, and if we do any more work they will be the ONLY company we call to come and do it.
An outstanding company and excellent value for the money we paid. I can't recommend them enough and do recommend them personally to all of our friends.
If you are nervous about picking the right contractor and spending a large sum of money picking Cipriani is the right decision.

Unfortunately they are one of the few companies that will handle all of these items together. I work full time and did not want to be a general contractor for the job. I knew they had been around for a while and mistakenly assumed that they would be reputable. I later asked various individual contractors how much they would have charged for each of the individual components of the job, and my total was far less than half of what Cipriani charged me. They also changed out some of the materials to cheaper ones without telling me. After installation of same, it was too much of a problem to replace them. On the positive side, they did show up on time, they were respectful, clean and courteous. There was a small problem with the electric, which after two phone calls they did fix.
In general I would view them as a company of last resort. If you absolutely can not hire the individual contractors yourself, and do not care about the cost they are for you. Otherwise, I think you can do better elsewhere.

It was a really trying experience. Thankfully, my husband was able to supervise throughout the entire project but if he was not present during the work a lot of mistakes would have been covered up. They promised a certain project manager but he was only there for maybe two hours tops per day because he was at what you might say a “bigger and better” project. This was not what we had agreed on. The tile leading up to the shower was fitted with subway tile and not fitted properly because the drywall was not leveled right. They tile showed an obvious curve. They tried to cover up the mistake but we made them redo the work. It was later resolved but I was not satisfied with the service. They did promise they would follow up a year later but they never did. A lot of promises were made but not kept. The upper management did a fine job and tried to mend things over. However, they could have acknowledged their mistakes better. They also left marks on our floors and did not correct the issue completely. We hired them because of some work we have seen completed by them but we were disappointed. It was not one of our better experiences but the work was good.

Cipriani is an excellent company. They do very good work, and they have stood by their work for the last 6 years. They repair anything when asked, for no charge. Cipriani is a unique company in that they just don't do the work and leave. They stand by their work. They have repaired things that didn't work, and put a new roof on when it started to leak. I can't recommend them highly enough! They are very personable, and very reasonable. They also have a flexible payment plan. I would give every thing about them an A Plus!

We met Jay Cipriani as a result of a nightmare from another contractor. Ours was a waterproofing job that went terribly wrong. We were going to contact another waterproofing company to remediate the situation when a friend suggested using a builder. Immediately we thought of Cipriani Builders in Woodbury. We didn’t think of contacting a builder for home projects since we thought they only build additions or new houses, but that is a misconception about Cipriani Builders & Remodeling Solutions. The owner, Jay Cipriani, was very sensitive to our concerns about contractors and we were cautious about this project too. Just like many homeowners, we also have an array of contractor stories. Jay visited our home and then we met at his office to discuss all the details of the job. We didn’t want anything to be omitted, misconstrued or missed and he understood our need to have a complete understanding of the job in both written and visual form. He incorporated our modifications to the job into the contract and told us that it was important that the homeowner and contractor are in complete agreement and understanding to avoid any miscommunications. Jay continued the communication with his team and checked every aspect of the job with us. As the job progressed we could hear the team reviewing, describing and verifying the job specifications to make sure everyone was on the same page. We are so delighted that words can’t express it. It’s hard to believe that we can now use a positive word when it comes to a contractor, but we can with Cipriani. The job was over the top superb, on time, on budget, at a fair price and the workmanship was fantastic. We will be contacting Jay Cipriani for all future work and in fact have already requested a quote to refinish our damaged basement. We are looking forward to working again with Jay and his team, and more importantly to get a superior job done right the first time so we can once again enjoy our finished basement. We highly recommend Cipriani Builders & Remodeling Solutions for any job you need done around your house. Jay is a man of integrity that insists on the same from his workers. If you want a superior job at a fair price contact Cipriani Builders & Remodeling Solutions at (856) 853-8398.

All of the people at Cipriani from the owner down to the workmen were professional in every way. We were informed of every step of the process and when a problem with the construction of the wall was discovered, they took pains to show and explain exactly what the problem was and what our options were. There was existing shrubbery and lawn around their work area and after they were done, we couldn't even tell that a new wall had been constructed. That's how careful they were. Since the wall opened onto our bedroom and it was winter, they constructed a temporary plastic enclosure to keep out debris and weather. Our salesperson came by every few days to make sure everything was going well and to see if we had any questions. In fact, I enjoyed John's visits and rather miss him now. He's a great guy. Same with Bud Hiles, the project manager and foreman. His work was topnotch and you couldn't ask for a nicer person. All in all, it was the best experience we could have had, considering that noone likes to discover this kind of costly and major structural defect.

Cirpriani first has you meet with a designer to explain your needs, etc. He provides plans, examples, and than a price for each project. Once approved, he went everywhere with us to pick everything out so that it matched and could get us the best prices. We had a great time, it was so much fun. A great service if you have trouble coordinating items. From the sconce on the wall to the faucets to the shower head down to the handles on the vantity.
The overall timeframe was much longer than they originally quoted us. This was due to the problems with the township inspection and it seemed that Cipriani had trouble getting their own workstaff on-site at times.
As with any construction project they ran into problems but were able to figure them out to our satisfaction.
My biggest problem is that the on-site contruction guys kept asking us questions about the remodeling that their designer already knew and we decided on. Seems like the communications between the designer and construction crew was lacking several times which cause us aggravation. I expressed this concern to Ciprirani and told them they need to improve their communications.
You also pay as you go. As certain items are completed on your checklist you will provide them with a check. I did not pay my final bill until all the work was completed and the designer came back for a walk-through which we found a few things and he honestly did not like a couple of final items so he had them change it on their own dime. After this was completed and cut the last check.
What is important to know is that Cirpriani will NOT be your cheapest vendor to provide services. You can find cheaper vendors but I went with Cirpriani because the end product was always excellent. About 10 years ago they built a $80K addition on my home and it is still in excellent condition with no problems. In summary if you want a quality product they will give it to you but you will have to pay alittle more.

My biggest problem is that the on-site contruction guys kept asking us questions about the remodeling that their designer already knew and we decided on. Seems like the communications between the designer and construction crew was lacking several times which cause us aggravation. I expressed this concern to Ciprirani and told them they need to improve their communications.
You also pay as you go. As certain items are completed on your checklist you will provide them with a check. I did not pay my final bill until all the work was completed and the designer came back for a walk-through which we found a few things and he honestly did not like a couple of final items so he had them change it on their own dime. After this was completed and cut the last check.
What is important to know is that Cirpriani will NOT be your cheapest vendor to provide services. You can find cheaper vendors but I went with Cirpriani because the end product was always excellent. About 10 years ago they built a $80K addition on my home and it is still in excellent condition with no problems. In summary if you want a quality product they will give it to you but you will have to pay alittle more.
