What We Handle For You

Our general contractor services cover the full range of home improvement and construction projects. Kitchen and bathroom renovations, room additions, basement finishing, roofing, siding, and structural repairs. If it involves construction, we can handle it.

We work with homeowners throughout Lake Ronkonkoma Heights who need everything from small repairs to major renovations. Each project gets the same attention to detail and quality workmanship, whether it’s a bathroom update or a whole house renovation.

You get one point of contact for your entire project. We coordinate all the trades, manage the timeline, and ensure everything meets code. No juggling multiple contractors or wondering who’s responsible if something goes wrong.

Timeline depends on the scope of work, but most kitchen renovations take 3-4 weeks, bathrooms 2-3 weeks, and room additions 6-8 weeks. We provide realistic timelines upfront and stick to them. Weather, permit delays, or change orders can affect the schedule, but we communicate any adjustments immediately. The key is proper planning and coordination from the start, which is why we spend time getting the details right before we begin work.
Yes, we handle all permit applications and coordinate inspections as part of our service. We know the local building codes in Lake Ronkonkoma Heights and what the town requires for different types of projects. This saves you time and ensures everything is done correctly from the start. We factor permit costs into your estimate so there are no surprises, and we schedule inspections at the right times to keep your project moving forward without delays.
Costs vary based on project size, materials, and complexity. Kitchen renovations typically range from $25,000-$60,000, bathrooms $15,000-$35,000, and room additions $40,000-$80,000. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for. Our pricing is competitive and transparent – no hidden fees or surprise charges. We also discuss different material options so you can make choices that fit your budget and quality expectations.
Always ask to see current license and insurance certificates before hiring any contractor. In New York, general contractors need proper licensing for most projects over $200. We carry both liability insurance and workers’ compensation to protect you and our crew. You can verify our credentials and check for any complaints with the Better Business Bureau or your local building department. A legitimate contractor will gladly provide this documentation upfront without you having to ask multiple times.
Good contractors address problems immediately and communicate solutions clearly. If we encounter unexpected issues like structural problems or code requirements, we stop work, assess the situation, and present your options with cost implications before proceeding. We document everything and get your approval for any changes. Most problems can be resolved quickly when you work with experienced contractors who’ve seen similar situations before. The key is honest communication and not trying to hide issues or rush through them.
We help you prepare by providing a detailed list of what needs to be moved, protected, or temporarily relocated before work begins. This typically includes removing personal items from work areas, protecting furniture and floors in adjacent rooms, and arranging temporary solutions for kitchens or bathrooms during renovation. We also coordinate utility shutoffs when needed and set up dust barriers to minimize disruption to the rest of your home. Proper preparation prevents damage and keeps the project moving smoothly.
