"Luis performed multiple projects including patching and painting damaged drywall, painting base of outdoor deck, placing saddles in a number of doorways, repairing damaged concrete floor and installing wood flooring, and adjusting the closing mechanism on a glass door by adjusting the hinges. His workmanship was excellent and he was very knowledgeable about all the details needed to accomplish a good result. I will be hiring him for all future house projects. I highly recommend him."

Installation and painting went very well.  The company made sure any scuffs on the walls and ceiling were repainted and properly blended into the rest of the surface.


All workers were pleasant and respectful.  I will be contacting them again for more work.

FAQs for projects in Yonkers, NY

No, installing a privacy fence isn't rude as long as you respect property boundaries and comply with local regulations. By building the fence entirely on your property and following zoning codes, you're creating a safe space without causing offense. Informing your neighbors before building your fence can also help maintain good relationships.

A privacy fence should be between six and eight feet tall to offer clear privacy and security. This height range provides an effective barrier that meets both design and safety standards. It gives your property a balanced appearance while protecting your space without encroaching on your neighbor's area. Be sure to check your local building codes, as regulations may limit the maximum allowable height.

A professional can install a privacy fence in about 20 to 30 hours, while doing it yourself might take 40 to 50 hours. Factors like obtaining permits, preparing the site, and leveling the ground can affect the installation time. Additional tasks like removing an old fence or dealing with uneven terrain may also extend the project duration.

Yes, horizontal fences are more expensive than vertical ones, but offer enhanced durability and a modern look. Their design often requires more materials and can result in a stronger structure with better resistance to weather conditions. If you're looking for superior longevity and a stylish appearance, the extra investment in a horizontal fence may be worthwhile.

Yes, hiring a land surveyor is important because it confirms your exact property boundaries. This step helps prevent costly encroachment issues and legal disputes by ensuring that your fence is built entirely on your property. An accurate survey guarantees compliance with local zoning laws, facilitates a smooth installation process, and helps maintain good relations with your neighbors.
