The moment Ralph walked through the front door I knew he would be our contractor. We had interviewed three others before him and there was always something missing. Ralph exuded warmth and a confidence that we had not felt with anyone else. He understood what we wanted, made suggestions and explained from the very start what we would encounter as we started this project. My husband and I bought a 50-year-old house that surprised us with unexpected problems and required major renovations. We replaced all the floors, wiring, lights, renovated and enlarged bathrooms, enlarged a bedroom and added a walk-in closet, completely renovated the kitchen, removed a fireplace, added a glass sliding door, replaced interior doors, crown molding, and base molding, re-sided the house and so much more. No one warned me how stressful this would be but Ralph practically held my hand as the construction got underway and calmed me down through at least one major meltdown. He was there for me through the tears as well as through all the exciting and wonderful developments as the project grew and the house we envisioned came into focus. I truly believe that he was just as excited as we were. We moved into the house on December 22 and on Christmas day the plumbing backed up. No shower, no toilets. We stayed in a hotel that night but it was Ralph who had a plumber there for us when we got home the next morning. Ralph employs the best workers and used the best materials for our home and it shows. The finished house has gone beyond our expectations because Ralph has been incredibly generous. We thank him for his patience and understanding and say from the bottom of our hearts that our relationship does not end when the last contractor leaves the house. We have become friends for life and both my husband and I realize how lucky we are to have found such a wonderful person and such a professional and competent contractor.

Ralph is the very best contractor I've ever worked with. He went above and beyond to help me with a massive remodel in the rental I own Bound Brook, NJ. He was swamped with work but managed to fit my remodel in. He is a consummate professional experienced, hardworking, on time and exceptionally reasonably priced for the quality of work delivered. He is also one of the finest people I've ever met. His integrity is impeccable. He didn't charge for some unexpected and unplanned repairs. I've dealt with plenty of contractors who have taken advantage of me but I would have no problem leaving a blank check in my home and saying to Ralph "write it for what I owe you". By the way, Ralph does much more than just drywall. He also is painting the interior of my house.

Ralph and his crew at National Home Improvements did a great job replacing my roof last month. It really needed to be replaced and I was very pleased with how professional they were to work with. I would definitely recommend using them on your Roofing and Siding needs.

National Home Improvements, owned by Ralph Favilla, is by far the greatest contractor I have ever dealt with in my life. He surpassed by expectations in quality of work, communication, and pricing. Ralph did not add one penny to the original estimate which came in at an extremely competitive price. We had our siding replaced, portico built, pavers and lighting, etc. Completed. Ralph takes pride in his work and his relationships. We have received a tremendous amount of compliments on our "new" home ever since the work was done and many people have even asked if we had the house custom built. I would not change anything about working with Ralph. Do yourself a favor and contact Ralph if you are getting work done on your home. Ralph restored my faith in contractors and you will realize that there are some people that go above and beyond in the work they do. All I can say is thank you Ralph!!! Your team was simply extraordinary.

The quality of the work for our substantial project(s) exceeded our expectations. We started with a bath project to test National out and expanded to what turned out to be another bathroom and a major kitchen overhaul. While we had the team working we kept going and proceeded to the exterior and did siding and front entry upgrades. The spend will directly add to the value (now lovely) home! Well done!

This company performed work for me at a property in Westfield, New Jersey. They did such an excellent job remodeling my kitchen and bathroom and I am so satisfied with the work that they performed. The crew was extremely talented and professional and the clean up was great. Ralph was very patient and helped me decide exactly what I wanted and the prices were very reasonable. I highly recommend this company and will be using them for any projects that I have in the future!

We hired National Home Improvement to basically do a whole house remodeling project. They were suggested to me by a co-worker that was happy with their service. My wife and I were looking to upgrade and remodel our kitchen, two bathrooms, a few windows and a new roof for our 20 year old house. The owner of National, Ralph Favilla presented us with many different options, styles and cost structures to suit our personal needs. He made us feel comfortable and didn't pressure us like so many other contractors do to gain a sale. He supplied us with a time frame that he rigidly held his team to and all work was completed on time. Everything looks gorgeous from the kitchen cabinets to granite counter tops to the mosaic tile on the shower base. Stunning! What also impressed us was the time he took to explain how proper airflow in the attic will preserve a roof and the benefits of sufficient insulation will help preserve an A/C unit. I would suggest National Home Improvement to anyone looking to remodel their home!

We used National for every part of the project. They helped us design our kitchen to the construction of every part of our house. We did our kitchen, our windows and our siding. National is truly a five star company. Everything from the the communication to the quality of the work was just great! I would recommend them to anyone who wants detailed work.

National Home Improvements did a great job on my house. Ralph and his staff were very professional and knowledgeable about the work I needed. All my siding and gutters on my 3 family house needed replacing. They also did lots of carpentry work on the house before replacing the new siding and I had new windows also installed. I am very pleased with the finished product and the great price I received. Thanks again for a job well done.

A great experience from start to finish . We remodeled the top two floors of our Hoboken building from the kitchen to the bathrooms. The project came out on time and with the attention to detail that was first rate. Truly a top tier construction company. The part that we found so assuring was the easy access to the owner and foreman answering and addressing any questions and changes we had . It was a big project. National is truly a five star company if you want the best.

National Home Improvements renovated the exterior of our home with new siding and exterior trim. They also remodeled the interior ceiling/baseboard trim with the highest quality craftsmanship. Our kitchen was renovated and we created a new mud room off the garage. The project was managed professionally and all project deadlines were met. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a real professional and polite contractor.

National home Improvements did a very special job on the exterior of our house . They helped design and complete our wood cedar install . They also did our windows. The best part of our job was the detailed trim and molding that just enhanced the whole project .We were looking for the wow factor of a job . National came through with flying colors. Our house now looks like the best on the block and the attention to the detail is what makes for a great look. We were very demanding and picky and national did a great job of making the project very seamless. They were not the cheapest but they were definitely the best construction company we ever worked with! I would entrust them to anyone looking for top notch work.
