Home Renovation & Remodeling in Lake Mohegan.

“I thought that finding an honest contractor who follows through with what they promise would be impossible but decided to take the chance with Essential and finally do my first renovation. I was very nervous at first but the contractor Peter was extremely patient and was with me every step of the way. His team which included a talented designer put together a picture perfect kitchen, powder bathroom and master bedroom bathroom. I was blown away by the attention to detail and if you’re looking for a wonderful experience limiting your stress level for such a major project then Peter and his team are a great fit.”

“My wife and I hired Kling Brothers Builders/Keith Kling to build an addition onto the back of our house, which included a new kitchen, family room, patio, mudroom, and other modifications to the interior. From the start, I was very impressed with Keith’s preparedness and diligence. He created a very detailed and transparent budget (approximately 10 pages), which outlined each item to be done and the price. More importantly, his estimate was accurate, and the prices that we agreed to did not change throughout the project. Keith is also very hands-on. He was on-site every day during the project. He is extremely responsive by email and phone, and if I emailed him a question while I was at work, within a very short period of time, I would receive a response. He was also available on weekends to meet with me, which was more convenient for my schedule. The workmanship of Kling Brothers Builders is top notch. Their on-staff carpenters are excellent, and their subcontractors are all superb. I did not have any issues with shoddy work or questionable characters walking around my property or in my house. Keith is very diligent about the “structure” and integrity of the building, and takes pride in how well built and solid the “bones” of the project are. Although I am not a builder myself, you can just tell that something is well put together by looking at it. Keith stresses quality and perfection, and was not satisfied until we were satisfied. He has access to some of the best craftsmen in the area, and in particular he introduced us to a custom cabinet maker who created a showcase kitchen for us. His other subs, such as the electrician, the plumber, etc., were all personable and flexible. All in all, we were very impressed and happy with Keith Kling. Although my wife and I are reasonable, we also have very high standards. Given the size of our project (to us), we expected top service and attention. Keith came through with flying colors, and he was very friendly, personable, and professional throughout. I have no tolerance for service providers who do not do what they say or make you feel as though you are doing them a favor by giving them your money. Keith is certainly not one of those people. Our project came in on budget, and any additional work that I wanted done was communicated and agreed-to up front. There were no surprises and the communication between Keith and us could not have been better. I give Kling Brothers Builders/Keith Kling my highest recommendation. I hope to use them again on a future project.”

“Best contractor and team in Westchester. Reliable. Responsible. Trustworthy. Honest. Professional. They take the anxiety out of home renovation and make it an exciting and pleasurable experience.”

“I highly recommend KH and Ken Huebner. I couldn’t get a decent looking lawn until I found Ken. He’s extremely knowledgeable, and not your typical landscaper. Excellent results every season!”

“Mr. McHugh helped me with redoing my kitchen a few years ago. Beforehand, I had very little knowledge of cost or labor, but he waled me through the process, and the kitchen was done in a tremendously timely manner. Patrick McHugh is a knowledgeable member in the professional field; he is competitive, communicative, and he sincerely works to provide the client with a high- quality end product.”

“Chris was reliable and honest , he followed through on everything he promised. What I really appreciated is that he takes personal responsibility for all of the work that is done. The contract clearly defined the work to be done and the amount I was to pay. I added work afterward, and Chris gave me more than a fair price for it. My new addition came out better then expected and my family will enjoy it for years.”

“Arthur was very flexible with all my needs, from the design to the budget. We worked together on the decisions, and details. He taught me a lot of things I didn’t know about remodeling. But the best of all, he is a great person. Can you imagine professionalism, knowledge, and a caring person all together? I am happy I hire him for my job.”

“Rivertown renovated my bathroom last summer. They are a pleasure to deal with. On top of the job every step of the way. Their subcontractors were great and respectful of my house (and dogs). My bathroom came out amazing. Highly recommend.”

“I have used Palette Pro numerous times to paint both the inside and outside of my home. The owner Rodrigo and his crew are extremely accommodating, neat and reliable. They consistently do a professional job and their pricing being extremely reasonable.”

“Highly recommend Grain and Steel contractors. Keith and his team did an excellent job of complete remodeling of two bathrooms in an older home. Nothing was too much trouble and his advice and Robin’s design choices were always sound. I would definitely use them again.”
