In April I called for an estimate, Andrew was fantastic. He was available for all my questions and…read moreshowed he was invested. I went with a different contractor for pricing and warranty reasons. I reached out again the end of June to see if they would like to take a job for gutters and a new shed roof.

I was promised a call by the afternoon. Nothing.

The biggest job I've hired him for so far was to brace/strengthen and refinish my deck. I had the decking replaced last year, but didn't get around to finishing it after it had seasoned. A year passed and the wood was starting to look dry and cracked. My little daughter couldn't go out barefoot anymore because she would get splinters every time. Kris gave me a competitive quote and made an excellent recommendation on a material to refinish and protect the decking. Now the deck looks brand new, it has a little bit of texture to provide traction if it's wet, no more splinters, and it's super easy to clean. It was an all-day job for Kris and two helpers, and I couldn't be happier. I appreciate that Kris is willing to do some little jobs too. I hired him to clean my gutters, and another time I hired him to do some repair work and repainting to part of the exterior of my house. It's good to have a business like KAR that you can always call on to do good work for anything related to home improvement or home repair.

And in two decades none of them have come close to the professionalism, price, trust and expertise KAR brings to job everyday. Kris and his crew essentially rebuilt my entire home over a 3 month period. Spanning from wall removal, bathroom renovation, rerouting electrical, custom sink installs,, adjusting floor deflections, baseboard customization, door installs, crown molding and painting. Literally everything I could throw at him was not only done on time, but it was done right and at the price quoted with no surprises and there was zero worry about leaving him and his team to work without me home or around my dog. Even the most mundane jobs, like silencing every creak in every floorboard and hot water pipe in the house was done and Kris refused to leave the job site until it was completed. You're not getting a guy that does contracting as his job. You're getting a contractor that DOES his job, period. No matter what you're looking to do, I highly suggest calling Kris first for a quote or second opinion. I'll wager the only problem you'll have is being forced to put out an extra plate on Thanksgiving because a new family member will be getting invited over.

If you're looking for a reliable company that takes pride in its work, look no further. ORIGINAL REVIEW: Nobody ever wants to have to deal with a roof leak, but if you find yourself in the same position I was, do yourself a favor and call Randy with Hudson Valley Roofers. He was quick and responsive, answered all our questions and came back on more than one occasion when storms knocked our tarping off the roof and threatened to increase our water damage. Once we scheduled, the work was done in less than a day and done well - we've had no problems since. Highly recommend!

Would never use this guy again. "Larry" is almost impossible to deal with. We had a rotted deck…read morereplaced with a screened in porch. Small, 15x15. It took over a year to get it completed, and that is not including the approval and variances from the town! There were constant delays where he didn't have the staff to show up and code violations that had to be redone. On one occasion he sent his guys here without a ladder and told them "you can just use the homeowner's". REALLY ?!?! Nobody asked me about it and I'm not going to be liable when one of your guys falls off my ladder! On another occasion they used my hand tools I had outside without asking. And one other time they used my lumber I had outside from a project I was working on! The work was structurally solid, but the finish work was not good. Plastic labels were left on lumber instead of removing before installation, cut ends were not hidden when it would have been easy to do so. We had him install a "Drink Rail" on the porch hand rail, but then he installed the screen on the inside of the porch making the wider railing inaccessible and impossible to put a drink on. He installed the screen on the inside because it was easier for him - though he told me it would be easier for me to replace them. I might replace them once maybe twice in my life, but I will be constantly looking for a place to put my drink. At that point I was so done with him that I didn't care I just wanted to be done with this project. His guys were all very nice and helpful to us, but none of them spoke well of Larry. He seems very unorganized, unable to run his staff well, treat his staff well and frankly I'm amazed he's still in business. One of his guys was fired by Larry multiple times but kept being hired back because Larry needed him. Save yourself the anguish and the fights over the phone. Stay away from this guy.

Had our basement finished by them. While the work appears to be of good quality (only one major…read moreissue since completion 5 months ago that was addressed and remedied immediately), communication with Larry often proved to be challenging. While he was always very prompt at responding to us with any questions/concerns, at one point I felt that I needed to have some sort of paper trail and would only communicate with him via text/email as many things that were discussed had been forgotten or confused. The job also took 4 months longer than it was supposed to (contract said estimated completion in April 2018, job wasn't completed until August 2018). However, the basement looks beautiful and I am happy with the final product. One of his main guys Brian, and Larry's partner Kim, were very easy to work with, while we sometimes had push-back from Larry on ideas of ours. Upon final inspection, he pointed out flaws in the work done by some of his "inexperienced" workers (his words) and basically threw his own guys under the bus. I appreciate the honesty but that came off as a bit unprofessional. I believe that doing decks/porches are more their forte, as they have lots of amazing reviews for that kind of work. Maybe finishing a basement is too big of a job for them?

We contracted Bona-Fide Construction in January 2023 for a small bathroom remodel. Initially, we…read morewere informed that this would be a collaborative project in which they worked with the owner of the home to ensure satisfaction so we were looking forward to working with the company. However, we noticed that accessories, and appliance like the bathtup, towel racks, lighting fixtures were mostly their "idea". When they were done, there was quite a bit of cleanup that we had to bring to their attention like messy grout under the vanity which looked awful and paint causing the door to stick. There was also a lot of cleanup we had to do as there was dust all over even though they told us we did not have to move anything "out of the way". Fast forward to June, I contacted them due to several nails popping out of the "new" ceiling and they informed me that the warranty on their work had expired but as "courtesy" they would fix this item. Important to note here here is that the nails were popping out of the ceiling initially when they began the work and this was brought to their attention to which they responded that they would "take care of it". Initial issues included hot water coming out of "cold" water faucet; installation of a vanity which may have been damaged as it seems crooked as installed and the door - to this day - does not close properly. Technically, it was the wrong vanity to replace the old one as it's too high as well. Based on our experience, they do not work as collaboratively as they should with the owners. We depended on their guidance as supposed "experts in the field". I would not recommend them for bathroom remodeling.
