Said he needed to order a part to fix my system and would be a few days, but when I called my landlord who hired him, he had told her he would pick it up himself while telling me he was waiting for it come in. Told me it was coming in Wednesday June 25 and hed come by if it came early enough, so I took off Wednesday and Thursday in case it didnt come in early and I asked Wednesday evening and he told me it was coming tomorrow the 26th, fine. He told my landlord hed be there between 3pm and 8pm on the 26th, no call no show, ignored all texts. Its now Friday the 27th and still no service or parts or even basic common courtesy and communication. I wish I didnt pay him until the work was done, so if you hire do so at your own risk and I highly highly recommend not paying until the work is done and completed. If he ever actually completes the job and didnt scam us Ill update the review and let you know but as of June 27, 2025 this man is a SCAMMER!

This phone number (570) 677-1681 and the guy who called himself "Tony" was registered under the…read morename "PCH Builders". My warrenty company hired him to fix my pool heater. He was supposed to assess it two weeks ago but never showed up. I called him and he rescheduled to the following week. He then never showed up again and would not answer my phone calls (his voicemail is not set up) so I called my warrenty company who then reached out to him and he rescheduled for the next day with them. That day which was a Thursday he never showed up or responded to my texts as he told my warrenty company to tell me to text him. He AGAIN answered the phone not for me but for my warrenty company when I called them. He rescheduled for Monday. On Monday I preemptively called him and texted him to confirm which he did not answer. I called my warrenty company who called him which he did answer. He told them that he would definitely be there that day. He never showed up or responded to my phone calls/text messages. I'm so happy that my warrenty company now replaced him and will find another tech because I do not trust this person. I think that if he showed up he would try to find a way to scam me. At least he only wasted my time which is way more valuable than anything he can offer.

Brener Construction exceeded my expectations. I hired them to completely remodel my one-bedroom…read moreapartment, floor-to-ceiling, and I couldn't have asked for a better partner. Amos and Tzvika are amazing people and outstanding contractors. They are, above all, honest, professional and dependable. They totally got my vision and worked to execute it with perfection. The work done was high quality and delivered on time, and I'm so grateful I placed my trust in them.

His commitment to quality and craftsmanship was evident in every aspect of the renovation, and it gave us tremendous confidence knowing he was overseeing the work so closely. We also can't say enough about Lois, who was absolutely exceptional. She responded to emails and phone calls within minutes, kept every detail organized, and expertly managed the permits, Department of Buildings paperwork, scheduling, and countless administrative details that come with a New York City renovation. Her efficiency, communication, and organization made what could have been an overwhelming experience feel smooth and well managed.

I appreciated how easy it was to work with Elton. He kept us updated throughout and was patient with our co op process. You can tell he cares about the details and this is reflected in the finished product. This was our first renovation project, and I am also very glad we went with Ark Construction because there were no financial surprises - which is something I have heard other contractors will do. We highly recommend Ark Construction!

Do not hire Paul Gambino of PCCM to do ANY renovations. He will rob you. He stole my furniture that…read morehe stored in his office and demanded that I pay him $27k to get it back. He claimed that I pay him in full when the work was CLEARLY not finished. He will keep pushing and adding ridiculous costs in the thousands to your base contract as you continue working with him. He will also keep pushing you to pay in full. He has a reputation (and dozens of ongoing lawsuits) for taking your money and not finishing the job. His team is inexperienced. They completely ruined my bathroom and my kitchen. They cracked my kitchen countertops and it needed to be re-ordered and they broke my toilet. My kitchen cabinets were installed crooked and not aligned. My backsplash and countertop were carefully measured by my interior designer but they still managed to misalign everything and it had to be taken apart to redo it. My cabinets that were shipped from Italy have big scratches. My floors are scratched. I ended up having to hire another contractor and pay more to take everything apart to fix it, clean up the mess, and patch up all the poor quality work that was done. These guys are are a scam. DO NOT HIRE PAUL GAMBINO AND THIS COMPANY. This is a warning. If you go with him you better be prepared for bullying on top of atrocious and unprofessional work.

Someone on…read moreFacebook recommended him to me when my kitchen cabinets had become worn and damaged in the corners. They either needed to be refinished or painted, and we decided to paint them. From the moment I reached out, Samir responded right away. He is an unbelievably good communicator. Because of scheduling and logistics, we did a lot of texting, and he promptly provided me with a detailed written estimate. Once I chose my color, he handled everything -- purchasing all the paint and supplies, and arriving with his assistant fully prepared. They carefully protected and taped off everything before starting. They were highly efficient, clearly experienced, and paid close attention to every detail. On the first day, they meticulously removed all the cabinet doors, drawers, and hardware, organizing everything carefully in containers. Then they sanded everything thoroughly. They took the doors with them, and just two days later returned to reinstall everything. The finished result is absolutely beautiful. My kitchen looks amazing, and I could not be happier. I highly recommend Samir!

One note- I am copy/pasting this review from what I wrote on their Google review as well…read more Samir and team were incredible. I would like to separate out the work product from the service aspect. The work product you can seen from the pictures - our bathrooms are transformed. It's one thing to select nice finishes and materials and another thing to install them with care and quality. They delivered on both. Then, there is the service aspect. My wife was late into her pregnancy when we started the work and then we had a newborn and a young child too while the work was being finalized. Samir and team were so conscientious - there were times when we weren't even sure they were there because the were working so quietly. I recommend them without reservation and will turn to them for any future work we do.
