Get matched with top shelter or outbuilding builders in Leonia, NJ

"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!"

"Jay & Eddie were great !! they helped me finish a exterior stormdoor that I had installed a few month ago.I ran it to a little problem door frame was not true square. Door was sagging and quite not aligned. Jay called within minutes came out and got the job done! Thank you!"

"They were not the cheapest but came highly recommended. They didnt disappoint for being a small outfit. Friendly and they know their stuff. They worked almost everyday and were very professional if any delays or issues came up. Solid, would recommend for sure."

"I walked up the second flight stairs, everything was clean. When I reached the top landing there were no boxes, no debris, and all evidence that a renovation had taken place was gone. It was the day before the renovation was going to be finished and I was feeling a sense of relief. And I felt a second emotion, a sense of feeling cared for. Working Construction had completed my 100+ year old bathroom renovation on time, in a clean and orderly fashion, at a reasonable price, with hardly any glitches. I started this project with a great deal of trepidation, but the experience turned out to be a first time major renovation rite of passage. I could hardly believe my eyes when I saw the finished product and have barely used it since fearing I would somehow awaken from a dream too good to be true. With that said the bathroom has been used by others including my sister, brother and guests. Seasoned renovators may view my account of this renovation as overdramatic, but owning a very old grumpy Brownstone who relentlessly hurls obscenities at you in the form of bad plumbing, boiler complaining, cracked walls, poorly insulated windows, creaky unlocking doors, peeling linoleum floors, screaming ugly navy blue tiles, greased up fifty year old orange kitchen cabinets, moldy walls, and many and all matter of home repair nightmares, we could only imagine what would be unraveled when completely gutting out a bathroom. Vince and Harold arrived on a Sunday morning to assess the situation. They were reassuring and listened attentively and intently as I discussed my concerns. They assured me it would all be okay and warned me of any possible problems that we might encounter. Of course these were two businessmen that wanted to close the deal, but I sensed sincerity in their voices, and their faces did not indicate any sneaky salesman tactics. There was No macho posturing which I can not stand. I explained that I was sort of in a time predicament. If we were going to start sooner than later the project had to be done quickly, otherwise we would have to start in the new year. Later that day Vince got back to me with a quote and a timeline. He said they could get it done in one week for 11,000. They had the best offer with the quickest turn around and the best demeanor. I said “Yes.” And we were off. The bathroom was gutted out and the building didn’t collapse. Harold and his crew fiercely attacked demolition and the bathroom was completely gutted out in one day with all materials moved off site. They met their objective. Prior to the renovation the bathroom was composed of pink mauve tiles from floor to ceiling, which were starting to come off the wall. Once the walls were removed mold was revealed. We discovered that starting the whole project turned out to be imperative as the loose tiles that had come off the wall had allowed water to seep through causing mold. Harold showed me the decaying wood once all the walls were eliminated. Our new bathroom consists of white modern subway tiles (4 x 6), a hardwood ceramic tile floor, a round mirror with three lights above, a white cabinet, white toilet, and white sink vanity. To create a larger feeling in what was a very small bathroom Harold expanded the bathroom ceiling. I’m not sure why the original ceiling was only about eight feet high since the apartment ceilings are ten or rather twelve feet high, but Harold raised the ceiling making the bathroom feel more expansive. Not only did Harold replace the light fixture, but he added high hat lights inside the shower stall as well, which added additional brightness reflecting off the white tiles. Seriously, when I saw the new bathroom I was like one of those people on a home renovation show rendered speechless. I can’t describe the overwhelming sense of relief I feel having found Working Construction. The project wound up costing a total of 13,000, which was still under budget from what my sister and I had expected to pay. I have additional projects which I plan on seeking their help for, but more than this Working Construction has given me a clearer sense of the possibilities of this building. This bathroom is the best Christmas present I could have asked for and it was delivered by my Christmas angels at Working Construction."

"Sorry for the delay in getting this review out.  Dave and his crew are outstanding, being very competitively priced, having excellent quality, and pride in their work.  
At times it was difficult to contact Dave LOL, but he does eventually respond, usually in the late afternoon.  When we scheduled the start of the project, it had been 11 days since my last communication with him, but he did indeed get back to me the day before the project, and confirmed he would be there on the scheduled day to start, and there him and his crew was!  He is so popular, that if he answered the gazillion phone calls during the day, he wouldn't get work done.  This is why he makes most phone calls after his work day.
Him and his crew went right to business, tearing down my wall, saving my bay window even though I only asked him to try since my friend wanted it, and kept it in great shape while removing it!  
The first day the door was in, and the subsequent days put the siding they had initially removed, put up drywall, sanded and painted.  
I even paid extra to patch up the butcher job of a hole on another wall i attempted to fix earlier this year.  I also paid extra for debris removal, 
They went above and beyond to complete the job as they patched up and painted an adjacent wall in my dining room where my wife keeps her "Wall of Fame"  with 50 + framed pictures.
These negative reviews are borderline comical.  ALL contracting companies have 1 or more laborers to assist the with the process of completing jobs.  Do you want the head contractor spending time going to his/her work truck to pick up tools that will be needed in a future process of that respective job?  Come on people!  These guys are perfectionists who know you have a deadline you want to meet with the completion of your job as well!
I have already told my friends and family about Nilsen Building and Remodeling, and I highly recommend them.
I have several pictures of the job they did for me start to finish, and will post them if Angie's List allows me to.

"My experience with Vinny and his team was great. Phenomenal to work with and very knowledgeable. I will recommend him everyone because he knows his profession and very honest with his pricing. I was very hesitant going into such a huge remodel but Vinny made it a great experience and kept the job moving with his team. Very happy working with his team and the quality of the job came out great!"

"Everything the building concepts did for me from beginning to end was exactly what they said was going to happen before signing the contract. I am more than pleased, and I will highly recommend them."

"It turned out perfect. There were about 3 or 4 guys that came out. They were done in a timely way. He was always back and very dependable. We'll use him in the future."

"Frank was awesome, very professional and kept me abreast of the project as we worked through the steps with my town regarding plans, permit, etc... When the job was completed, I was very pleased and have subsequently hired Frank to do several other jobs at my home."

"My family has been using MTL contracting services since 2009. They’ve done everything from building an addition on our first home to completely updating and renovating our second. The qualitily of every job is incomperable. Look no further."
