Emilco Construction LLC is an independent general contracting firm that not only delivers impeccable results but prioritizes its clients. We know just how stressful a new project can be. Overseeing a development can take a real toll on somebody, especially if they don’t have the right general contracting team by their side. It takes a lot of hard work, long hours and a particular care to details in order to accomplish and follow through on a vision. Although working on improving your home or business is exciting, we understand that success relies mainly on hiring the right crew for the job!

"Emile is a great contractor and I highly recommend him reservation to anyone looking to upgrade or do a home renovation project. He helped us renovate our primary bathroom (completely, down to the studs and completely changing the layout), created a main floor laundry room, and an extra bedroom. Emile provided a comprehensive estimate, which was accurate, and he finished the entire job within the agreed upon time frame within the estimate. His crew were complete professionals, polite, and did excellent work. We could not be happier with the results and our new spaces. The rooms are beautiful. He went above and beyond in all respects, even when I decided to make changes to the design along the way, he was able to roll with them and told me how much various options would cost and other pros and cons of those options (tiling the whole bathroom vs partial, heated floors or no, different types of fixtures, etc)."

Here at JFH Construction, we take great pride in providing quality and professional services to the Staten Island community.

This provided our clients with start to finish service and with a job done right. Just give us a call today and schedule an appointment. We look forward to meeting you.

"I hired Joni to completely renovate my property, and unfortunately, it was a very disappointing experience. He wasted a lot of my time because he didn?t know how to properly complete the paperwork needed to obtain permits. He also works with only one person, which made it unrealistic for him to take on such a large project. As a result, the renovation took far longer than expected. Throughout the process, I had many disagreements with him. He later brought in workers to install the tiles, but the job was done very poorly?the floors are uneven and wavy. The entire renovation took over a year, and even then, he didn?t finish the work. His excuse was that his worker had been detained by federal authorities (ICE). Overall, I do not recommend hiring Joni for any renovation projects."

"Make your life easy - just hire Robert Johannemann & Sons for your new roof and don't waste time getting lots of other quotes from other roofing contractors. Robert is extremely good at what he does & has a fantastic crew working with him. His quote was the best one we got; & just a week after we met, my new roof was completely done. His professionalism is exceptional, there was no pressure to do more work than I thought my old house needed & the final bill was exactly what we agreed upon. He has an incredible piece of machinery to collect all the old shingles, and I'd never work with a roofer who does not have this. It's a tractor with a small dumpster on it that is raised right up to the roof they are working on. This means thousand of pounds of shingles are NOT thrown down to CRUSH your landscape and lawn. Nobody spends all day picking up junk on the ground; the whole crew is laying down new shingles instead. So Robert finishes quickly & does a great job at a real fair price!"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

A walkout basement is considered to be partially below grade because at least one wall is entirely exposed. In some cases and in specific municipalities, inspectors and appraisers will still count walkout basements as below grade, which means the space can’t serve as living space or be rented out. If you intend on using the area as living space or a separate apartment, you should check with your local building department to make sure it’s legal to do so.

Home improvements that increase value not only enhance quality of life but also offer a high return on investment (ROI). Replacing a garage door has one of the best ROIs at 93%. Other high-ROI projects include remodeling your kitchen, installing a stone veneer, and replacing windows. These updates make homes more appealing to buyers and improve functionality, which helps if you plan to sell your home in the future.

The cost to remodel a basement is between $12,100 and $33,400 for the average homeowner. The price you pay can be as little as $3,500 or as much as $50,200, depending on the size and condition of your basement and the type of remodel you're doing. 

If you're doing a simple project like adding a home office to your basement, you can expect to pay anywhere from $500 to $3,000. However, if you're adding a bathroom, which is an extensive project, you can expect to pay between $6,600 to $16,500.

Yes, you’ll use a macerator pump to install a basement bathroom without breaking concrete. The purpose of breaking into concrete is to connect the drain pipes to the main sewer line. But a macerator pump will bypass this step and break up solids until they are soft enough to pass through a discharge pipe. That pipe will carry the waste to the sewage line.

Living in a finished basement is acceptable, but only if the space has the proper points of egress and includes smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) detectors to ensure the safety of the occupants. A good way to ensure your finished basement is suitable for use as living space is to get the basement finishing project properly permitted.
