Schiavo & Company

My project of installing a new large AC wall unit was completed very timely and well and with good cleanup afterwards. My house is from 1829 and the old AC worked for 28 years. Since it was so hot when it broke, I really appreciated that he showed up very quickly and that the new AC arrived faster than expected, too. This was a life saver kind of project for sure!

Joe was fantastic from start to finish. Prompt, reliable, and super friendly.

Joe did amazing work on our South Philly home as we were getting it ready to sell. Joe went above and beyond with our smaller projects and set our minds at ease as we brought our house one step closer to listing. We would absolutely hire Joe again in the future!

Schiavo & Company has completed several projects throughout our home, and each one has been approached with exceptional care and attention to detail. Joe’s craftsmanship and creativity consistently go above and beyond our expectations. He took the time to make sure our vision for each project came to life within budget while incorporating unique, thoughtful touches. For example, he added hidden storage doors to our fireplace and introduced us to yakisugi, a Japanese wood-burning technique that beautifully enhanced the grain on the custom crafting desk he built for me. The built-in bookcase is now a focal point in our home, and the hanging chair was Joe’s idea to add a unique touch and an additional level of comfort and style. Joe always goes the extra mile to ensure everything is just right. We highly recommend Schiavo & Company and will continue to trust Joe with future projects.

Schiavo & Company did a fantastic job! They added a floor to my attic space and installed a new light. They created a work plan that not only doubled my storage space but also protected existing wiring and allowed future access if needed. Work was convenient to schedule, fairly priced and cleanup was impeccable! Recommend them for your home improvement projects.

Schiavo & Company has completed projects in various rooms of our home, and each one has been handled with the highest level of care and attention to detail. Joe’s craftsmanship and creativity have exceeded our expectations every time! With each project, Joe worked with us to ensure our vision was brought to life within our budget while adding special touches that made each project unique. He added hidden doors to our fireplace for extra storage, and he introduced us to yakisugi, a Japanese wood-burning technique that brought out the beautiful grain patterns in the crafting desk he made for me. Joe is always willing to go the extra mile to ensure that everything is perfect. We highly recommend Schiavo & Company, and we will continue to trust Joe with our future projects.

The sort of company and workmanship that breathe life into a time long past – where things were done right and relationships held weight. A nostalgia to the feeling that he seemed far more like a guest in our home, rather than an anonymous worker – and will now always be welcome in that capacity, off-the-clock included. A rare model of knowledge and humbleness, Joe took extensive time to discuss our requests and was thrilled to dissect questions, suggestions, and feedback; in no way forcing solutions or bulldozing us with fast or unfamiliar language – which my family and I appreciated especially. His knowledge base and range of capabilities are nothing short of a testament to his experience and intelligence, and he has now collectively installed ceiling fans, door systems, and flooring for us – all of which he provided schematic drawings for prior to beginning (ensuring both our full approval and understanding of the logic). The work and cleanup were superb, extremely considerate of costs, and something we will continue to rely on moving forward. I would struggle to recommend anyone more highly.

Joe built my powder room vanity from scratch. He installed it and the porcelain tile floor too! He built a second vanity for my upstairs hall bathroom. He also has done flooring in my two guest bedrooms.
