Get matched with top contractors in Maybrook, NY

"Dave Nessel and his stellar company, Unique Construction NY Inc. are the BEST. Allow me tell you why- On May 15th 2022 at 5:45 p.m., my house was hit by, what electrical engineers later estimated, was at least 80,000 volts of lightning. That huge, direct surge of energy destroyed all the systems and contents that made my house more than four walls and a roof. In addition to the bolt of lightning destroying all the systems in the house, it caused a violent, destructive fire. Thankfully I was home at the time of the incident, or the house would have quickly burned down all the way down and my pets would have suffered a terrible fate. Still, after all was said and done what had been my home for seventeen years was reduced to nothing more than an outer shell. I was immediately forced into the position to find, hire, and organize tradesmen from all specialties, negotiate the endless complexities of homeowners insurance, all while trying to find a place to live and continuing my self-employed full-time work schedule. It quickly became clear I needed the services of a general contractor. I interviewed a couple, but as soon as I met Dave I knew he was the man for the job. Dave was always on time or early. He went through the house with a fine tooth comb for hours, noticing things and problems from the destruction I hadn't noticed. His expertise of every level of construction and understanding of all aspects of housing systems (electrical, plumbing, etc) was unmatched by anyone else I had interviewed. Additionally he had an understanding of the homeowner insurance protocols and was able to interject as a supporting role (only when needed, Dave never undermined me -I'm a single female homeowner-) with professional, easy to read, paperwork, accurately demonstrating all costs. I'm confident his detailed documentation made the long slog of negotiations with my insurance representatives a little easier. Under his expert guidance, his company gutted and rebuilt my old house to beautifully modern standards while maintaining its historical charm. The rebuild came in precisely on budget and two weeks early. Dave's company Unique Construction handled my complex situation with upstanding processional skill, old fashioned kindness, and outstanding forthrightness. Dave and his crew treated me with respect, rebuilt my home, and provided a little hand holding & TLC when it seemed I needed it and I'm eternally grateful. Anyone reading this should hire Unique Construction!"

"My wife and I hired Kevin Babcock General Contractor to construct a 3 season room addition to our home. Kevin quoted a very reasonable price, for the project which included a start and end date, for the job. The project was started and finished within the scheduled time. Kevin is excellent with communicating what is going to happen, on the project, on a regular basis. He also answers any question you may have during the course of the job. His people are very professional and skilled, at all aspects of the project. In addition to the construction Kevin also handled all of the paper work including filing the plans, which we had already prepared, through to delivery of the C of O. Kevin also provided additional value, to the project, which just made it better, at no extra cost. We are very pleased with our new 3 season room and highly recommend Kevin Babcock, General Contractor."

"Everything was very good. Their service was very good, the workers were very considerate and they worked professionally and their price is reasonable too."

"I am very glad I hired Brian VanKleeck. The primary task was cedar shake replacement, but he also installed copper gutters, wood gutters, rebuilt a chimney, and repaired a shed on a 1773 historic house. Historic methods and aesthetics were an important part of the project. Brian sourced the materials and corroborated details with experts, including people who had worked on the house many years ago. He is skilled in the techniques in question, and was a clear and careful communicator throughout. He is very organized. Not only that, but he brings humor, humanity, and joy to the process. Highly recommended."

"Really great experience so far. Thanks!"

"Awesome job"

"John, Al, and Leamen were all perfectionists, knew their craft. They were also super nice. They were diligent and kept areas clean. Pricing was reasonable. Extremely happy and will use them again. New framed windows, insulation, baseboard and outlet paint and caulk in enclosed porch of 90 year old home. Al put up a new wall, window and door with trim siding where old dilapidated door and carriage doors were in the rear attached workshop ! All brand name products. "

"We hired RP FAM LLC this past summer to remodel our kitchen, bathroom, and hardwood floors, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Leo and Carlos were professional, trustworthy, and detail-oriented. Their honesty and integrity gave us total peace of mind, and their quality of work exceeded our expectations. We started with a bathroom remodel, loved their work, and ended up doing the kitchen and most of our hardwood floors too. Everything turned out beautiful! We’re already planning for them to come back in the spring to rebuild our three-tier deck. Highly recommend RP FAM LLC for anyone looking for reliable, skilled, and honest contractors. "

"Superb. Great contractor. Skilled in all areas of building construction, demolition, heavy equipment operation. Very nice guy. Hard working. Reasonable pricing."
