Full service remodeling, roofing and siding contractors serving Long Island. Whether you are in need of new roof installation, roof restoration, or roof repairs; new siding installation, siding repairs; new windows & doors installation; kitchen remodeling; bathroom remodeling; we are the Long Island home remodeling contractors to call, due to our professionalism and affordability.
"The initial meeting with John was promising. He was straightforward, easy to talk to, and quickly provided a quote without being pushy. I appreciated that he offered light recommendations without trying to upsell us. After that first meeting, I felt comfortable moving forward. I had John come out one more time so my boyfriend could meet him, ask a few more questions, and finalize the siding and color choices. The next morning, John texted early, saying he’d be by within the hour to pick up the $10,000 deposit. We were told materials would be ordered right away and the project would begin by the end of the month. However, as that date approached, we hadn’t heard anything. When we reached out, we were told it would be delayed by another week — and then again, another week. We were okay with some delays, but the complete lack of communication was extremely frustrating, especially since we needed to coordinate our work schedules. We were also told the work wouldn’t involve anything on the inside, but that turned out not to be true — which was a big issue since we have two pets. During the project, our flower beds and garden were completely destroyed. While some wear and tear is expected, there was no reason for a large boxwood bush to be crushed with a cinder block when there was clearly space to work around it. Several things were damaged, including blinds, window sills, a shelf, and part of the entrance flooring. While I understand that accidents happen during construction, what bothered us most was the lack of accountability. None of these issues were addressed until we specifically called them back out to deal with them. John never showed up for a single walkthrough, and to our surprise, the entire job was done by a different company altogether — not his own crew. That was something we hadn't anticipated, and unfortunately, we didn’t think to confirm it beforehand again our fault. The windows installed were low quality and very off-brand compared to what we expected. We had also discussed having decorative grills/grid lines in the windows, which were completely left out. In the end, while everything listed in the contract was technically delivered, the overall experience left a lot to be desired. The workmanship felt sloppy, communication was almost nonexistent, and the lack of oversight from the owner was disappointing. We definitely feel we overpaid for what we received. It’s partly on us for not being more proactive during the process, but someone who takes pride in their business would have at least done one final inspection or walkthrough."

These three materials have different backstories and care needs. Solid-surface counters are molded from resins, pigments, and minerals, so they give you a seamless, low-maintenance look. Engineered stone—often called quartz—mixes ground quartz with resin, creating a durable, stain-resistant surface. Marble is quarried straight from the earth, which means every slab has one-of-a-kind veining and a classic feel, but it also needs regular sealing and a bit more TLC than its man-made rivals.
Marble’s high-end look can definitely boost a home’s perceived value. Buyers respond to its unique veining and luxe finish, so a marble kitchen or bath can help your listing stand out. While no upgrade guarantees a certain sale price, marble’s timeless appeal makes it one of the stronger surface investments you can make.
With the right care, marble countertops can last anywhere from 20 to 100 years. Routine sealing, wiping up spills before they stain, and steering clear of abrasive cleaners all protect the surface. Follow that simple plan and the stone’s natural strength—and beauty—should stay on display for decades, giving you a long-term return on your investment.
It hinges on how you cook and how much upkeep you’ll tolerate. Marble stays cool—great for rolling pastry—and gives a classic, upscale look, but it needs sealing and quick wipe-downs. Granite is tougher, shrugs off higher heat, and asks for less day-to-day attention, making it a go-to for busy kitchens. Match the stone to your habits and style preferences.
Skip setting a sizzling pan straight from the stove or oven on your marble countertops. The stone handles moderate heat but can discolor, crack, or chip under extreme temperatures. Use a trivet, hot pad, or heat-resistant mat instead. That small habit protects your investment and keeps the surface looking showroom-ready.
