"Andy is a professional contractor. He followed up as promised, and his price was affordable. On the day of the installation, he arrived early with his crew they completed the work and cleaned up afterwards. Additionally, my Zelle only allowed a certain amount per day, but Andy was very understanding allowing me to send the funds as my bank allowed. I will definitely recommend this company to do my renovation work. I am looking forward to working with them in the future. Thank you so much Andy for your honesty, respect and understanding. Happy holidays to you and your family."

Wood Flooring
"Alberto is a hard worker, honest and friendly. He was honest about how our floor will look after refinishing. He gave us choices regarding the finishes and how it will look. Honest about the pros and cons of using oil versus water base finishes. Our floors were old, a little buckled and yellow/orange. He made them look brand new and smooth. Took the old yellow oil base finish away. Brightened up the entire first floor and made the wood grain and natural color appear again. We are very happy with his work and would recommend him to everyone."

"We absolutely loved the work that Elia did on our living room remodel! He built beautiful custom shelves to flank our fireplace. He didn't waste a minute and built them and painted them in his workspace and brought them ready to be installed. He tiled the front of our outdated fireplace and helped bring it to life! He worked tirelessly and tidied up each time he worked. Elia we can't wait to have you back for future products."

"I hired BEX Contracting to repair the and paint the wall after electricians had installed wall mounted nightstands on my bedroom. Bex and his team closed the wall to perfect finish and painted my room. They were careful to cover the furniture and protect the floors. I highly recommend BEX Contracting"

"Tony did an outstanding job remodeling two bathrooms in my apartment over the summer. His is very professional and responsive. Our building is old and like any remodel in an old building, we had some complications, but Tony handled these challenges very well and was very attentive to my feedback and priorities. I also want to note that Tony has a good eye for design and in some cases he suggested ideas that improved the overall look of our bathrooms compared to our original plan."

"Finding an honest and reliable contractor has been grueling, luckily I find Bobby and Sims construction. Bobby gave me a fair price and most importantly of all completed the job on time and his work was top notch. The apartment looks great! Thank you!"

"Al made this project easy. He was patient as I made my way thru my coop requirements. Then, when the work was done, he had excellent workers do the job in two days with no undue disruption. He replaced plumbing under the kitchen sink, replaced the rotting cabinet and installed a dishwasher. I recommend him highly."

HomeAdvisor makes it easy to connect with pros near you. You can read reviews, get quotes and book appointments all in one place.
Depending on the type of project, you may find subtle differences in the hiring process. Here’s a look at task-specific advice.
You can use HomeAdvisor to help evaluate a contractor’s qualifications. We put pros through a screening process, and award badges to high-performing contractors. You can find these badges on a pro’s HomeAdvisor profile, and sometimes, his or her website.
Your research doesn’t stop here. Once you’ve found a few prospective companies, make an call to ask a few questions about work history, licensure and more:
In most cases, the responses you get to these three questions will give you a very good idea of the right pro for your project. If you have more than one front-runner, these additional questions can help you narrow it down.
Any good contractor will answer these questions, and most will appreciate dealing with a client that takes such an active interest in finding good service. On the other hand, if a contractor gives you a hard time with these questions, you probably want to find someone else.
