Carpenters in Albany, NY

"Very professional, great communication, personable."

"Sam set an example for how all other contractors should be. We all know how hard it can be to find a good contractor, especially in Albany. After searching for some time and starting to get down, I found Sam on HomeAdvisor and became optimistic because of the two existing excellent reviews. I called Sam and was greeted with absolute friendliness. Sam quoted me a very fair price soon after I provided him details of what needed to be done, and he agreed to come at a time very convenient for me that was very soon after my request. He arrived on-time for the job, with a smile and a friendly greeting. My comfort level, already very high from the phone call, was even higher after meeting him. Sam came very prepared with a huge toolbox, and he set right to work. He efficiently completed a perfect job repairing the connection of a door in my home to its holder. All of my interaction with him was very positive and enjoyable. I cannot say I hope for more things in my home break, but when they inevitably do, I look forward to seeing Sam again. Thank you, Sam."

"This is the second time we hired Brian Kopf. We had a variety of projects for him, including leveling a sliding glass door and installing a locking mechanism on it, repairing a bedroom door, adding trim to the lattice work surrounding our sun porch, but most important of all, mudding and painting our 23-year-old garage, which was banged up and heavily stained. Brian's work far exceeded our hopes for the project. The quality of the work, which was completed during a stretch of very hot and humid days, was precise and quite frankly, exceptional. The garage looks brand new. As I noted in our last review, Brian is the consummate professional. He is thoughtful and was respectful of our home. Brian is very personable and so easy to work with, especially given our lack of expertise. Needless to say, we have several other projects that we are hoping Brian can add to his schedule. We highly recommend Brian Kopf and if we could give him 10 stars, we would."

"Christopher is highly skilled and handled whatever came up throughout the whole job of renovating my 1850's home! From demolition to reconstruction, he covered it all! He is always punctual, used top quality materials, knows how to do brick work, builds beautiful custom doors, does everything else in between and is very competitively priced! I am so happy I found Christopher to do my job, it made life much easier dealing with one person rather than many different contractors. Thank you Christopher!"

"I hired Artie and was completely satisfied with all the jobs he did. He fixed front steps, built new back steps, new screen door, screen replaced on window, a few shingles replaced, and painted the garage. He also cleans up after his work. I enjoyed working with Artie and will definitely call him again when I need some work done. Mike"

"Mike and his crew were very professional and presented a positive appearance. It was easy to talk with him and he is quite knowledgeable in many facets of the job to be done. He doesn't take shortcuts, but he doesn't try to add on additional steps that other larger contractors try to sell. I have have or had homes in NC, NV, CO, UT, and NY. I have dealings with contractors like Lowe's, Home Depot, and other large contractors and subcontractors on everything from roofs down to tree roots; Mike will definitely be on my future projects. I'm sorry that I didn't find him before. He's also prior MILITARY, and that may have a lot to do with it."

"Bob was very professional. Explained why shingles were coming off and gave a honest estimate on replacing roof. Will definitely hire again."

"Joe and Chris exceeded all of our expectations with the job. The job consisted of having to remove the left side door frame and molding from our bathroom door which they took great care in doing thus minimizing any destruction of the plaster walls. They expertly installed the new frame and rehung the door perfectly. They also repaired out front exterior door which was out of plumb and not closing properly. And also replaced our exterior basement door. They also replaced a damaged tongue and groove knotty pine board in our stairwell leading to our upstairs bedroom. Joe and Chris explained everything they had to do to complete the jobs and Joes estimate was reasonable in price. They are both gentlemen with a professional attitude, friendly and easy to talk to about the work and a variety of other topics not related to the job at hand. I highly recommend them."

"After requesting services, Etmond contacted me quickly and scheduled me right away. He was prompt, polite and very professional. Our porch needed repairs as the floor boards were popping up and some were dropping down. The base of each post that supports the roof, were falling apart. Etmond was a pro! He knew what was wrong and fixed all the unsafe floor boards and secured both ends of the porch (something the original installer failed to do). Etmond also replaced all post supports with the proper product. Our porch is now safe to walk on and we can't thank him enough for the excellent work he did. We will be contacting him again for some indoor projects I have in mind."

"Frank was reliable, punctual and did our job as we requested. All work was done with quality and he and his assistants worked neatly and with little disruption of our daily life. The work was done on time and I would highly recommend them."

"I highly recommend HDC Roofing! Wayne's attention to detail and highest quality craftsmanship is exceptional. I had had a puddle indoors after a bad rainstorm. Wayne took the time to explain how a ridge vent is supposed to work, and why my old one allowed the driving rain to push rain into the house. He showed me a sample of the new ridge vent, matched new shingles to my older roof, and I ended up with a beautiful new ridge vent to protect the space below. His pricing is fair and honest, he and his son arrived on time, did the work as agreed, and also did a great job cleaning up. Wayne and his son are amongst the most pleasant and courteous contractors I've ever met. I would definitely recommend HDC and will use their services again if need be!"

"Chris came at a time of family crisis and immediately responded to our needs. I would highly recommend him, professional, dependable and will be asking him to help with other projects that need attending."

"I'm pleasantly0ppl surprised. These brothers arrived on time, were courteous, professional, skilled, and hard-working. They completed the job a day early, leaving no trace that they were ever there. I highly recommend them and will call them again, if needed."

"Tony and Alex were great to work with and painted our home in a timely manner. Fair prices and excellent quality of work!"

"It is with deep satisfaction that I recommend Gradys Painting and Plastering & Construction. Mr. George Grady is a skilled craftsman. He was hired to correct long neglected and extensive masonry and window issues on a large, beautiful Presbyterian Church built in the Civil War era in Philadelphia. The property was neglected with only minimal maintenance performed over the last 40+ years. The building was in severe decline and in need of stabilization and restoration on many fronts. Cracked ledge plates were chipped out and reestablished, internal walls damaged by leakage were broken out and repaired, brickwork was repointed and in severe cases reestablished to original strength and beauty. Leaks around the base of the building were addressed to stabilize deterioration of the foundation. Large rotted window sills under beautiful stained glass windows were restored after significant masonry reestablishment due to water damage under the rotted out sills. Broken and missing stained glass windows are in the process of repair and replacement. The process started with new metal frames cast by Mr. Grady. The new frames will hold clear painted replications of the original stained glass, also crafted by Mr. Grady. Regular windows all around the church and manse were also repaired and restored. Roof leaks were accurately identified and repaired. A sagging plaster ceiling has been torn out and restored. All this work was done by Mr. Grady alone or with an occasional helper. He worked with care, expertise and respect for the original structure. The results far exceeded our expectations and have injected new life into a building on the brink. This building, owned by the Presbytery of Philadelphia, now houses a new urban ministry in a newly gentrifying area of the city. We are happy to have had the good fortune to be connected to Gradys Painting and Plastering & Construction by Service Magic."
