My wife and I just purchased a 2BR/2 bath co-op in an OLD building in the Bronx, and it needed a good amount of cosmetic TLC. After being referred to Armando Moreno by our friend/real estate agent (whom we sincerely trust), we contracted him to paint the entire apartment (top to bottom, bathrooms, hallways, closets, ceilings, everything) and sand/refinish the wood floors. He gave us a VERY competitive price (we got quotes from a few other local contractors) and he assured my wife and I would be very pleased at the end.
After 6 days, he had the entire place DONE. The apartment looks BRAND NEW. No exaggeration...it literally looks like a new apartment. We didn't expect the floors to look much different than before, but the wood looks brand new now. I wish I took a "before/after" photo to compare.
Armando, his sons, and his team were so meticulous with the entire job. Armando told me he loves what he does and it realllly shows in his work. He also told me he treats every job as if he was working on his own home and after seeing what he did to our home, it's evident.
Dealing with Armando was very easy and refreshing. After chatting with him for a bit, I had no doubt I was dealing with a man of good morals, who was honest, and a true professional. At the end of the day, he's a family man that wants to take care of his family. So when he says he will do the job right, he WILL.
Wish I could give Moreno and sons 100 stars. No, 1,000,000 stars. I almost never feel compelled to write reviews...this is only my 2nd one since signing up for Yelp. But after Armando and his crew completed work on our apartment, I felt it was necessary to let others know about him. If our friend hadn't told us about Armando, we would have been shopping around and could've hired a "hit or miss" contractor.
I, without an ounce of hesitation, recommend Armando's services a million percent. I know he does work in the general New York City area, but not exactly sure where else he covers. If you need work on your home and aren't sure who to go to, do yourself a favor; go with Armando. read more
