"Chatel Construction is by far one of the best Long Island has to offer. Not only are they professional and knowledgeable, they are also flexible and provide full service support before, during and after construction! They are the premiere General Contractor the Junior League of Long Island will rely on for the entire repair and upgrade process of their historic landmark building that houses their thrift shop and headquarters. We had the honor of having them come onboard and support us through 8 months of growing and changing scope and they became the ideal partner through this process. Paul and Scott are remarkable and hire on the best workers to make your project as unique and high quality as they possibly can! We cannot wait to continue working alongside of them!"

"Excellent contractors! We keep hiring them. They are extremely efficient. And they do it all. They worked on our bk condo by adding a staircase and building a second floor from scratch., as well as a total kitchen remodel. They also did a complete cosmetic update renovation to my mom’s house in queens. You know you have great contractors when you go back to them to get more work done."

"Anthony, Allison and Luis were a a refreshing group of people to work with on a contracting job. We had a bathroom repair that went horribly with another contractor, so we needed someone and come in to fix the prior job before things got worse. Luis and Anthony put together a proposal and got right to it. We had to have our new shower floor ripped out, the drain and piping replaced, a new custom shower pan installed, new shut-off valves, repair the shower head, replace wall tiles and remove and replace all of the grout. They showed up every day within their half-hour window and worked a full day. They were very respectful of our home and our space. The work they did to replace the previous shoddy work was spectacular. We no longer have to worry about leaking pipes and damaged fixtures. Luis was on site most days to oversee how things were going. And if he wasn't there in person, he was always available by phone to answer questions. Since we had potential subrogation claims against the previous contractor, we needed to document EVERYTHING as we went along. They were very patient with us and letting us take multiple photos and clearly explaining everything they were doing. Luis was also incredibly knowledgeable and was informing us of potential problems before they happened. We went to get the grout that we were told by the previous contractor to use. With one look and feel THROUGH THE PLASTIC BAG Luis was able to tell us that it was the wrong grout which was what led to many of our problems with the walls. We simply returned it for the unsanded grout which was the industry standard for wall tile. We further had Anthony and his team rip out the drywall in an overhang outside and install lights, an outlet, insulation and then repair damaged drywall from the original plumbing job. Everything was perfect. Very clean and professional job. We would highly recommend Anthony and his team again. They are very professional, knowledgeable and do great work!"

Customers say: Quick response

"It's rare to hear "I love my contractor" but that's what Tony's Contracting Group was to us. My husband & I had a gut renovation of our prewar bathroom. After interviewing 4 contractors, we chose Tony's Contracting Group and we're so happy we did! From the start to finish Tony was either on site or reachable by phone. He helped in the design planning and the workmanship from his team was excellent. They ran into some plumbing issues when they started the demo and Tony was vigilant in making sure these issues were resolved and up to code. It's very evident that Tony is a man of his word, trustworthy, and has a very high standard for customer service. We won't hesitate to endorse him and will use him the next time we need renovation work. Kudos to Tony and his team!"

"I hired BEX Contracting to do a major renovation on my aunt apartment as i was preparing to sell it. I could not be more happy with the outcome., Bex and his team did a fabulous job painting the apartment, restraining the floor and remodeling my kitchen including installing a new countertop and sand and staining kitchen cabinets. Bex is very courteous and reliable, he over communicates and the whole process was a breeze - i cannot recommend BEX Contracting enoguh!"

"Just finished my kitchen reno with KBR and I?m seriously impressed. The team was super professional but also just really easy to deal wit which makes a big difference when you?re living through construction. They helped me make smart choices without ever being pushy, and everything came out exactly how I pictured it. If you?re looking for a contractor you can actually trust, these are your people !"

"Hiring Elson, Ardi and their team was a great choice from Day One. Their proposal was well conceived, the price was very competitive, and the work was completed on time and on budget. Dismantling and removing the old roof deck on our co-op in midtown Manhattan and replacing it entirely with a well designed new one was a big job but was finished remarkably quickly. Plus, Elson made several recommendations that greatly improved final result. As President of our co-op, I would unequivocally recommend this company."

"Mario and his crew were responsive and overall did a very nice job. He was flexible when I wanted to add a few projects and was very communicative throughout, regularly texting me photos and questions. He finished on time and on budget, even though we found a few problems along the way, as expected in an old house. A couple small things weren't finished perfectly (a little crooked or not flush), but these are minor quibbles. As contractors go, Mario is easy to recommend."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.
