"Jon was very thorough from beginning to end. He took the time to make recommendations that helped me a lot. I will recommend him to anyone needing similar projects."

"After contacting a few kitchen design companies in our area, they would not meet our demands, we choose to work with AG design when we drove by their showroom and decided to give them a shot. We worked with Alicia, and let me just say this, she is very talented and knowledgeable. She presented us with a 3D design of our dream kitchen and we fell in love. Went ahead and ordered everything through AG design from the cabinets, to the countertops and tiles. And had them do the installation as well. Seamless process. Highly recommended! P.S. we love our Calcatta Laza countertop!"

"We hired Ernest and Sons to construct our patio tiles. We purchased 2' X 2' Tiles and I have to say they did a gorgeous job. I was so pleased with the way they showed up when they said they would. The men that laid out on my job worked so hard. The labor was very strenuous but they never took a break. They were the most conscientious and polite workers I've ever dealt with. They worked neatly, cleaned up totally afterward, and just had a great deal of respect for our property. They really did a beautiful job and Ernest, the owner is a real gentleman also. Love this company!"

"Tarrytown, NY Sep 2023 We bought our house right after the Pandemic in 2021. At that time, the house was only 3 years old. It was more house than we thought we wanted, but we fell in love with it anyway and knew it would be the kind of house our family could grow in to. The main feature was the unfinished ground floor. Roughly 2600 sq. ft of endless entertaining possibilities! After almost 20 years of apartment living, my wife and I had no idea about how to even begin such a substantial undertaking. We interviewed a few general contractors and were left unimpressed. To tackle this project, we needed someone who not only had the know-how, but someone with a flexible, experienced and creative approach. My wife happened upon the Chrysalis Awards for Remodeling Excellence website and saw the work of APEX Contracting and Remodeling. We scheduled an appointment and were introduced to Andrew Ramirez. On our walk-thru, we were immediately impressed with Andys attention to detail. We had loose idea of what rooms the space could hold, but the specifics were still very fuzzy. He carefully listened to our ideas, and in a matter of minutes, he was taking us through an infinitely more detailed imagining of what could be done. It never felt like he was selling us a bill of goods and our skepticism quickly gave way to excitement! When Andy met with us again with a more detailed rendering. It was like watching a magic trick being performed right in front of our eyes. We loved his professionalism and approach. We discussed what the process would be - Timelines, the initial steps to undertake, and the contract process. Andy brought in the Architect, and within a few weeks, we were off! The APEX crew arrived on day 1 and were courteous and total Pros. Andy was thoughtful and meticulous in the way he guided the work and he quickly became a fixture around our home. He set an agenda and was communicative when the work hit a snag, (as is often the case under the best circumstances!) We knew what was happening..(so IMPORTANT!!!) The site was ALWAYS clean and organized. There were inevitable delays throughout the duration of the project. And we had a TON of them. Procuring materials, post-Covid, as well as the inflated cost of materials, created delays that no one could have predicted. At several points during construction, it caused a slow down in the pace of work. But our anxieties were often soothed because Andy was so good at helping us manage our own expectations. We built a Gym, Movie Screening Room, Pool Room/ Lounge, full Bath, custom storage throughout the space, and a Spectacular Bar! I had a specialty request, a professionally designed Recording Studio. I would brought in a firm that designs these types of spaces and required a separate contractor to perform that work. In a truly magnanimous gesture, Andy made space for me to contract a specialty company for that work - going above and beyond to accommodate their crew and made himself available to answer all questions and the two teams worked together, seamlessly. Andys sub-contractors were top-notch! Electrical, Plumbing, HVAC, Architect, Interior Design Consultant, all served as an extension of his care to detail and doing the work, the Right Way. Everyone was coordinated - and they executed the plan. Trust is often the hardest thing to have when a contractor is involved. But because of the way Andy has always been with us, he is proven time and again, that our trust in him AND his work, is well founded! We LOVE our space! We love showing it off and sharing it with our friends and family! And we have already made plans to start a few future projects in the home. And when we are ready to get started, there is only one company we would trust to do it. Andy Ramirez and APEX Contracting and Remodeling!"
