Our Construction Process

Here's Exactly What Happens Next

First, we visit your property to understand exactly what you want to accomplish. We measure, take notes, and discuss your timeline and budget honestly. You’ll get a detailed written estimate that breaks down materials, labor, and timeline.

Once you approve the project, we handle all permit applications and scheduling. We order materials from our established local suppliers and coordinate delivery timing. You’ll know exactly when we’re starting and what to expect each day.

During construction, we maintain clean job sites and communicate regularly about progress. We address any questions immediately rather than letting small issues become big problems. When we’re finished, we walk through everything together to ensure you’re completely satisfied before considering the job complete.

Complete General Contractor Services

We handle everything from small repairs to major renovations and additions. Kitchen and bathroom remodeling, basement finishing, room additions, roofing, siding, and structural repairs. If it involves construction, we can do it right.

Our approach works whether you’re updating a single room or renovating your entire home. We use quality materials that make sense for Long Island’s climate and your specific needs. No cutting corners on things that matter.

You get the same attention to detail on a bathroom renovation as you would on a full home addition. Every project gets proper planning, quality materials, and the kind of workmanship that holds up over time. We warranty our work because we stand behind what we build.

Timeline depends entirely on project scope and complexity. A bathroom renovation typically takes 2-3 weeks, while kitchen remodels usually require 4-6 weeks. Room additions can take 6-12 weeks depending on size and permitting requirements. We provide realistic timelines upfront and stick to them. Weather delays happen occasionally with exterior work, but we communicate any changes immediately. The key is proper planning and having materials ready before we start. We don’t begin projects until everything is coordinated properly.
Yes, Rich’s Construction is fully licensed and insured to perform general contracting work throughout North Haven and Long Island. We carry comprehensive liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage. You’ll receive copies of our insurance certificates before any work begins. We also handle all necessary building permits and inspections required by North Haven building codes. Our licensing and insurance stay current because we understand how important this protection is for homeowners. Never work with unlicensed contractors – the risk isn’t worth any potential savings.
Our estimates break down every aspect of your project including materials, labor, permits, and timeline. You’ll see exactly what you’re paying for without hidden fees or surprise charges. We include allowances for fixtures and finishes, clearly marked so you understand what’s covered. If you want upgrades beyond the allowance, we show you the additional cost upfront. Our pricing remains fixed once you approve the estimate – no change orders unless you request additional work. We believe transparent pricing eliminates stress and builds trust throughout the construction process.
We provide written warranties on all our construction work. Workmanship is warranted for one year from completion date. We also pass through manufacturer warranties on materials and fixtures we install. If something isn’t right, we return to fix it at no charge during the warranty period. Most issues that arise are minor adjustments that take minimal time to resolve. We stand behind our work because we build things correctly from the start. Quality workmanship and materials mean fewer callbacks and happier customers long-term.
Absolutely. We handle all permit applications and building code compliance for your project. North Haven has specific requirements that we understand thoroughly from years of local experience. We submit permit applications, coordinate inspections, and ensure all work meets current building codes. This removes the hassle from you and ensures everything is done legally and safely. Permit costs are included in our project estimates so there are no surprises. Working without proper permits creates major problems when selling your home or with insurance claims.
Changes happen, and we handle them professionally with clear communication. Any modifications to the original plan are discussed thoroughly including cost and timeline impacts. You’ll receive written change orders detailing additional work and pricing before we proceed. We never perform extra work without your approval first. Small adjustments that don’t affect cost or timeline are handled immediately. Larger changes may require additional permits or materials, which we coordinate efficiently. The goal is keeping your project moving forward while ensuring you’re comfortable with any modifications to the original plan.
