They coordinated material delivery well. Vadim even returned extra leftover tile back to the store for me.

The design work and initial build was on-schedule and professional. then the "change orders"…read morestarted coming in and it was clear that the "design" was, in actuality, incomplete and the extra costs continued to balloon. Our concerns were brushed off with a healthy does of condescension. They were dishonest in how they sourced materials. Through independent verification, we discovered that we were overcharged by 466% for the windows. We had receipts. We arranged a walk-through with the owner and, even with receipts in hand, they maintained nothing was wrong. This led us to believe that ANY materials sourced by KBR were of interior quality and KBR just pocketed the difference. The other one-star reviews here line up perfectly with our experience. Take them seriously.

TLDR: Avoid working with them. Money grabbing contractors that subcontract everything and work…read moreproduct is sub par. They use KBR and also "1625 Design" as their various entities Quick comments: 1. All the 5 star reviews on this page are paid ads by the company. Read thse peoples other reviews because they are bot generated 2. The company is very poorly run and you can tell by the constant staff turnover. I had multiple point people for my contractor, their supervisors have switched couple times, and my designer was fired. Person that pitched me on the project is also no longer there. Before you hire them, ask them about their recent turnover, you will get the idea very quickly 3. The boss, Noam, only cares about money (examples below). When you get the original scope of work, you need every minute detail listed because if it changes in any way, it's going to cost an arm and a leg as a "change order." My apt was a full gut reno (demolish everything), and because the scope didn't specifically list to remove a built in hamper in the bathroom, they wanted to charge $1k. Hopefully that gives you an idea of the nit-picky change orders that you are signing up for. You want additional outlets because the original person doesn't know NYC code, that's another $1k per... stuff like this... I'm sure this is their way of quick upsells Other money grabs: - They charge a % delivery charge on retail prices for all materials, while they get industry discounts - Noam wanted to collect my final installment before the project was completed. Noam never stepped foot in my apartment but will hound you for the next $ installment 4. Quality of work is sub par. I had a glass panel break 1yr+ post reno. Understood that this is out of their "warranty" time frame. I spoke with the glass manufacturer etc and ordered a replacement glass, there were pads that needed to be installed which were not during original installation. KBR didn't even come to inspect or anything, but said it was installed correctly by looking at a photo clearly showing these pads were not installed properly. Andreas (contractor), Edison (second designer) were good to deal with, relative to others at the company. Avoid paying the 25% down payment before the project even starts. This is 100% my fault. Once you make the payment you won't be able to get it back and essentially are in bed with someone you don't want to do business with. DM if you want more additional details

My family just finished renovating our three story house with Modern Citi Group. We had a great…read moreexperience, both the construction and communication were impeccable. The team was responsive and helpful. Anna kept in touch with us every step of the way and provided guidance on design and layout, answered all our questions and overall she was a pleasure to work with. The construction team was very professional and respectful, the guys were all very nice and knowledgeable, tons of experience in the field. The walls were done impeccably, the wood floors came out perfect, and bathroom is like a real spa now. We are very happy with the final result! For the amount of work and support the team provided, the overall cost of the project seems to be very fair. I would definitely recommend using Modern Citi Group.

Meeting her wasn't like meeting a new vendor, but more like gaining a new friend. We decided on Halina as she provided the most flexible option in terms of choosing our own materials, and she is extremely careful with giving a detailed quote so that the client can see the complete breakdown. Halina helped us with a full kitchen and bathroom renovation. We had a modern kitchen but hated the look. I showed her my Pinterest board which she immediately understood my vision. She brought in an amazing cabinet maker (millworker) who did fabulous custom cabinets for us. I am an avid baker and cook and wanted the small kitchen to be as functional as possible. Halina accommodated with bringing in the millworker who mapped out our entire space for maximum efficiency. This included pull out spice cabinets, utensil cabinets, toe kick and pull out trash bin. We had a custom color sprayed on the lower cabinets and they look and function beautifully; with soft closing drawers and inlay cabinet doors. The bathroom was definitely a complete overhaul. We did a bathtub to shower conversion with hexagon tile flooring, subway tile walls. Halina made sure that all the plumbing was good to go, and while this was a slightly difficult process for us to live without running water for a little bit, the end result is well worth it! We have a beautiful bathroom that makes me feel like I am at a resort every day. The tile work is very well done. As far as change orders, Halina doesn't start anything without asking us. We had a few things that we wanted to change that were on our part - and the prices were fairly reasonable. What we paid at the end was very close to what we were quoted in the beginning. Overall, we are extremely thrilled with our renovation from Aspiro Renovations. Halina's dedication to excellence and continued support is (she has helped us even after the renovation is over) is much appreciated.

I spoke with 6 or 7 contractors before, gratefully, finding Aspiro. Halina's bid was markedly below the other companies. Bringing a sophisticated design sense, and allowing me to choose and order my own materials was a winning partnership that saved money further and created a beautiful end result. Additionally, it should be highlighted that working with a woman contractor brought novel benefits, like attention to detail, emphasis on candid communication to quickly address issues, and a warm collaborative spirit. There was no loss of skill as Halina and her crew are extremely knowledgeable in all areas of construction, engineering and in the trades necessary for renovations. I highly recommend Aspiro for any project big to small--amazing results, at a fair price, while staying sane!

They took feedback very easily and answered all our questions.

Their team handled everything from the co-op board approval and DOB permits to the design and construction, so we had one team to communicate with throughout. The finished result feels like it was always meant to be this way -- modern and functional but completely respectful of the building's original character.
