    Reviews With Photos - Modern Citi Group

    (deleted post from 6months ago) [please feel free to message me if anyone would like to know more] Our bathroom renovation journey, which began over a year and a half ago, has evolved into a protracted and frustrating ordeal. What was intended to be a renovation to address water damage on our white marble tiles in a newly constructed building has turned into an ongoing nightmare. Initially, we engaged a renovation group that seemed promising. Their previous reviews were positive, which led us to believe they were competent and experienced. (We now think their glowing reviews are fraudulent). Unfortunately, their performance soon revealed significant shortcomings. From the outset, it became apparent that the group lacked the necessary expertise. They struggled to source materials and hardware for our project. Instead of relying on their supposed industry knowledge, we found ourselves spending hours online searching for suitable materials. They were unfamiliar with some of the well-known luxury material distributors in the city, further complicating the process. Despite these early concerns, we remained hopeful and continued to push forward. However, what started as minor inconveniences quickly escalated into major problems. As construction approached, the group repeatedly assured us that the project would take around one month. A week before construction was set to begin, they discovered that the tub size they had ordered did not match the technical drawings. This mistake forced them to revert to the original hardware--hardware that had caused issues in the initial build of the building. This error marked the beginning of a series of cascading problems. The group's disorganization and poor communication soon became glaringly evident. They drilled the shower rail guards backwards, necessitating the removal and plugging of costly tiles. The tech also filled in the weep holes in the shower holes with caulking by mistake. So water to this day cannot drain through the weep holes. Also, the sink was installed backwards, and they only discovered the error when we pointed it out. Plumbing issues compounded the problems; the sink's plumbing was done poorly, and their plumber attempted to install an illegal trap, which we had to correct based on our family's construction business experience. Then, the plumber had to come multiple times because the sink would not drain. Leaks were another significant issue. Once the pipes were installed, we discovered that both the sink and the toilet were leaking. We had to intervene once more, instructing the plumber and the group on proper installation procedures. Additionally, the caulking used for the tub was apparently defective, requiring them to redo it but they forgot they had to dry the wet tub first. With all these mistakes, the project manager inexplicably never came on site, except for the first day of construction. The tech and the manager just communicated via cell phone photos. Also, we were frequently informed that a technician would arrive to address problems, leading us to vacate the premises for weekends. Unfortunately, these tech visits often resulted in no-shows, with no explanation. The bathroom floor heater still does not work to this day. And, we still don't have a glass shelf they broke, which they said was being cut to size 1.5 years ago. As a $2,500 credit for their errors and an unpaid $900+ does not compensate for the ongoing ordeal, we are now considering other avenues.

    Great experience with my home remodeling! Can't thank Daniil and the team enough for my apartment renovation project! It was an absolute success! Bathroom, kitchen, living room and the rest of the apartment look brand new!

    My husband and I contacted many licensed general contractors via Yelp. We chose Modern Citi Group in the end because of their incredible customer service! Daniil and Anna went above and beyond during the process to ensure that our apartment remodeling project was exactly what we envisioned. They were professional, super responsive and knowledgeable. They worked around the clock with us. The best part is that they took care of everything, including our co-op board package submission, designs renderings, architectural drawings, material selection, etc. We had a great team guiding us though the entire renovation process from the day we called until the final walkthrough. They advised us on a better layout option that we ended up using, and design decisions that were hard to make, such as best paint colors, coordinating matching fixtures, etc. Kitchen and bathroom design feature similar tones so look very uniform and stylish, couldn't be happier! Overall very satisfied with our home remodeling experience and would definitely recommend Modern Citi Group to all of our friends. Thanks guys!

    See all

    My wife and I were lucky enough to work with Kevin Pellón and DSB architecture on gut renovating…read moreour fifth avenue duplex. I truly cannot recommend Kevin and DSB architecture enough. There are certain rare individuals who are not only experts in their craft, but bring with them such a sense an infectious sense of joy and enthusiasm that they make even a potentially difficult and painful experience fun. Working with Kevin was a wonderful experience from start to finish. We went through 30+ designs for our apartment. This was a remarkably collaborative experience where we would discuss features we liked or disliked with Kevin and he would come back (often in only 8-12 hours) with new drawings showing our discussed changes, and then including an additional set of drawings showing his new ideas. This was all included as part of DSB architecture's extremely reasonable price. I was consistently impressed by how hard of a worker and how responsive Kevin is. I would often send emails late at night (11 pm - 1 am) and be shocked to get nearly immediate responses. Not only did Kevin never come close to missing a deadline, but where some architects would take weeks or months, Kevin would take hours or days.

Jim knows how to preserve historic details while bringing the design into the modern era in a tasteful, classic way. He exudes calmness and wisdom and is a pleasure to be around. Full disclosure in that I ultimately had to choose a less experienced architect because Jim's fee, although completely reasonable given his level of skill and expertise, was a bit out of our price range.

Jim is very detailed and each week during renovation, we had him manage the project with the contractor to ensure the final output was done properly. Most Manhattan apartments are not symmetrical, so the early stage on doing things a certain way goes a long way on the final look. He understands plumbing, and electrical well to communicate to our contractors. He referred us to a HVAC engineer. When it came to interior design, we had Sarah who provided feedback and suppliers information. She was also very helpful. Jim knows the DOB process well and helped us resolved many issues even during covid and DOB rule changed in 2020 and 2021. We also had him manage the project with the contractors. The contractors don't have the same design eyes and were a bit sloppy and forgetful so it was imperative to have Jim help us. Urban charges by the hour and provided an accurate estimate of the cost. Make sure what projects he's working on so he can allocate time properly. In the beginning with the design drawing schematic, it took a while cause he was on a couple of brownstone projects but overall still have a very positive experience with Jim. He was responsive.
