RH Contracting Enterprises, Inc.

They were terrific! We encountered unexpected problems along the way, and they were flexible in dealing with the changes. They were friendly and courteous. Wayne was very assertive and professional in sticking up for me when my co-op board was being difficult about some of the unexpected work. I would certainly recommend these guys and/or hire them again.

Horribly. They are the worst of the worst, cliche bad contractors. Run in the other direction. Look at the image to see the lawsuits against this business. Do not let these people anywhere near your home.

Hiring this company was the worst decision we have ever made. From beginning to end this job was a fiasco: questionable billing practices, inexperienced crew, not enough men on the job most of the time, messy, disorganized and the quality of most of the work was "shoddy" (architect's words). But all of that was the least of it. These guys obviously had no idea how to take a roof off and keep the house dry. We had flood after flood after flood. My children were soaked in their beds during one of them. Calling them in the middle of the night to come deal with water coming in became a normal occurrence. All this resulted in lots of extra construction just to fix the walls and ceilings that were damaged. We were roofless to one degree or another for four months. A framing company should have been called in to get this done quickly after the second or third or even the fourth flooding but, we assume, the owner didn't want to spend the money. We had to make two insurance claims and will be filing a complaint with Westchester County. A total nightmare. Steer clear.

They came into my house and didn't even look at the hole in the roof, but demanded a $500 deposit (which I gave to them). They came with very basic supplies and did not have all of the tools necessary to complete the job. I had to lend them various tools and fuel since they did not have them. After they put on the patch, they demanded an additional $2,250. I have not paid the bill and they are now threatening legal action. The bill is way too high and I have turned the bill over to my home owner's insurance. I do not want other people to go through the same experience I did. Their workmanship was extremely poor and needed to be redone by another contractor.

They were great! From the day I first contacted him for an estimate, Roy Howard was prompt, responsive and professional. Every detail and question was confirmed in writing within 24 hours. He shopped with me for items ?to be supplied by owner,? and he and his staff gave consistently good advice. If I changed my mind on an issue (which I did), or added in something else (which I also did), RH Contracting rolled with it. They continued to give fair prices on my changes/additions (no soaking of the captive customer with high change-order fees!!), and continued to be prompt in scheduling and completing the next step. Staff members Tom, Paul and Chris were all a pleasure to work with -- friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Each type of work (tile repair, painting, custom cabinetry, lighting, plumbing) was done skillfully and each time the place was left in spotless condition. The job was completed on time and on budget. In addition, even after all fees were already paid in full, RH Contracting responded within 24 hours when I asked them to stop by and check out the water-flow from my new sink (it was a design ?feature? of my new faucets, which Tom quickly diagnosed and fixed).
