"I recently had siding repair work done at my home, and I’m very pleased with the entire experience. The quote provided was honest and accurate, with no surprises or hidden costs. The team completed the work professionally and right on schedule, which I truly appreciated. Elson stood out with his deep knowledge and attention to detail—he clearly knows what he’s doing. He was also very polite and made the customer experience smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend their services!"

"I recently hired Slate General Contracting to renovate my entire apartment, and once again they delivered outstanding results. I’ve worked with their team in the past on several commercial projects, so I already knew they were reliable and professional—but they truly exceeded expectations on my home renovation. The biggest highlight was the kitchen transformation. They completely elevated the space with a smarter layout, beautiful finishes, and exceptional craftsmanship. It genuinely looks like something out of a luxury design magazine. Their communication is always clear, they stay on schedule, and the quality of their work is consistently top-tier whether it’s residential or commercial. Slate takes real pride in what they do, and it shows in every detail. If you’re looking for a contractor you can trust for any type of project, Slate General Contracting is amazing. Highly recommend!"

"I recently closed on my new-build condo in Stuyvesant Heights area of Brooklyn this past March 2023, & needed a local general contractor to execute a long list of works to bring my designs for the unit to life & add some character to it. When I contacted Waxtel LLC, Dave (owner) priced the large job I requested (general contractor, electrical, and plumbing works) reasonably within my budget, was very responsive, & kept communication clear. Rich (PM) helped support the contractor team in execution of the works, but myself/husband did have to handhold some of the contractor works to ensure it was done on time & met our quality standards."

"I reached out to Chattel Construction when I was closing on my home. I was anxious to get work started (and completed) as soon as possible. Scott and Paul were great from the start. They were very open about ballpark prices, what was realistic, and what isn't worth spending money on. Doing a major renovation is daunting as a single woman with no construction experience. But with CCC, I was treated with nothing but respect from everyone involved. Scott quickly prepared a thorough quote and worked to make sure it covered everything I wanted. Their prices were as I expected and the only change orders I received were for extra work I requested. I had a reasonably large project in a 125 year old victorian home. CCC renovated the two upper floors by gutting two big bathrooms, changing the floor plan to move walls and doors, built out a big closet, installed, new radiators, replaced the stair treads, and brought the original floors back to life. CCC worked quickly and efficiently, did great work, and resolved every issue that came up. My top floor is "difficult" with varying gabled ceilings that impacted the bathroom and closet space. Scott helped me figure out how to harmonize and work with the angles while making the most of the space. Everything turned out beautiful and even better than I expected. I am so happy I found CCC! I've already begun planning the second phase of my renovation and wouldn't even consider reaching out to anyone else to do the work."

"I had the absolute pleasure of working with KBR Design & Build for a major home remodel, and I couldn't be happier with the results! From start to finish, the entire team demonstrated exceptional professionalism, expertise, and dedication to bringing my vision to life. Edison Liao, the designer, was incredible in reimagining my space. He listened to my ideas, provided insightful recommendations, and designed a layout that was both functional and aesthetically stunning. His attention to detail and ability to blend modern and timeless elements truly elevated my home. Sal Vines and Colin Devlin, the project managers, were outstanding in overseeing the renovation process. They kept everything organized, maintained clear communication, and ensured the project stayed on track. Their problem-solving skills and hands-on approach made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Any concerns I had were promptly addressed, and they made sure every aspect of the remodel met the highest standards"

"We recently hired Starlight Construct to paint our entire apartment. We needed ceilings, doors, windowsills, moldings and all walls painted. We also needed some repairs to cracks in our walls and previous paint. Basit and his team were professional and efficient. They completed the project a day early and the work was meticulously and beautifully done. I would definitely hire Starlight again for any home improvement projects."

"Jason was wonderful to work with. We contacted many contractors to discuss our renovations. Jason was by far the most responsive, thorough, professional and easiest to work with. He was available and patient with all of our endless questions. We had many issues along the way including configuring kitchen layout, broken medicine cabinets, floor refinishing, delayed appliances, etc. It was all extremely stressful, but working with Jason made the process more manageable. I joke that he was also a marriage counselor for us since my husband and I didn't agree on everything, shockingly. :) I highly recommend working with Jason!"

"As someone who can be skeptical of handyman jobs in homes, this company earned my trust and my business. Not only did they assist in fixing various problems in my residence, they worked with me every step of the way and did everything possible with professionalism and care. Their communication was always on point and were open to suggestions and new ideas and concepts. Discreet, kind, and moderately priced, these guys are my new top choice for any work in my residence, from electrical to plumbing to construction. They can do anything. Try them first before you pick anyone else. You'll thank me."

FAQs for major home repair (general contractor) projects in Manhattan, NY

In many cases, it’s much less expensive to convert a bus than to buy an RV, especially if you’re considering a newer RV model, which can exceed $100,000.

Another huge benefit of school bus conversion is that you are in control of the renovation project. You get to pick your camper's new layout and all the appliances and furniture.

While school buses can easily cost $300,000 when they're new, you can often find used buses for just a few thousand dollars. These vehicles experience extreme depreciation due to government regulations; they can only be used for so long before they must be replaced. Due to those same regulations, other government agencies cannot purchase them for their own uses, so the consumer market is the only place they can go.

The length of time it takes to convert a bus depends on the scope of the project (and size of the bus), how much work is DIY vs. done by a professional contractor, and how much work you’re doing up front.

In general, expect at least a couple of months for a conversion, but larger conversions could take six months to a year. Remember: You can tackle projects as you go: Get the basic work done so that it’s livable, and then continue to enhance your living space over time.
