"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!"

"I just finished a gut renovation of my West Village apartment. The CNM team (Matt, Jose, Mateo & Vicente) are a tremendous group to work with. They provided top notch customer service and excellent craftsmanship and attention to detail. They would be my #1 recommendation to anyone looking for a General Contractor. 10 out of 10 experience."

"I recently closed on my new-build condo in Stuyvesant Heights area of Brooklyn this past March 2023, & needed a local general contractor to execute a long list of works to bring my designs for the unit to life & add some character to it. When I contacted Waxtel LLC, Dave (owner) priced the large job I requested (general contractor, electrical, and plumbing works) reasonably within my budget, was very responsive, & kept communication clear. Rich (PM) helped support the contractor team in execution of the works, but myself/husband did have to handhold some of the contractor works to ensure it was done on time & met our quality standards."

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!"

"Bex is hands down the most capable and reliable contractor I've ever worked with. I have thrown all sorts of challenges at him in our new apartment, from removing a pocket door and converting it into a regular door, to fixing the wall and plumbing behind our washer/dryer and much more. He has met every challenge. He's also very courteous and careful. I can't recommend him enough!"

"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!"

"We interviewed and took bids from eight different contractors for our kitchen renovation. What impressed us immediately about David was his interest in the project and his suggestions for how to coordinate the finishes into a cohesive design. He paid attention to the details. Then his estimate came in and it was excellent. Not only that, but the work timeline was by far the shortest. Once the project began, we saw how organized and efficient the company was with their work schedule. Our neighbors approached us in the hallways to tell us how courteous and friendly his work crew was. This was our first major apartment renovation in a co-op building, so we were plenty nervous. David was calm and steady throughout the process. Whenever we had a question, he was available, and got us the answer. He was attentive to any request we had in order to have the project finished to our expectations. As with any major project, issues did arise, but David was very responsive and dealt with all of them to our satisfaction. He also accommodated issues that arose with materials, etc. which were not his responsibility. He found solutions for us that exceeded our expectations. At the end of the day, we wanted communication, thoughtfulness, and trust from a potential contractor. David delivered on all those points. As we enjoy our new kitchen each and every day we feel fortunate that we settled on Mayanda. We look forward to sprucing up our bathroom with his help."

Unfinished Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.
