There I store items not presently needed but not ready for the garbage heap. Sebastian was the first to answer my call and his ideas captured me into rejecting other later applicants. After the stairs came the wonderful suggestion of reconstructing one section of the attic. In this space I could walk standing up and a beautiful bedroom and office was constructed. The work was done quickly and professionally. By Christmas I had an extra bedroom to accommodate my many overnight visitors, particularly grandchildren. The transformation is magical. Here is a picture of before and after. I am hoping to continue with this construction in some months under Sebastian's visionary supervision

I hired Sea Beast Design & Construction (Sebastian Barbagallo) as General Contractor for a…read moreresidential project in Fair Lawn, NJ under a written contract in March 2026.. I paid Sea Beast $68,190 against the contract and separately paid $17,176 directly for materials I had no contractual obligation to pay -- $85,366 total -- yet MULTIPLE major scope items remained incomplete or not meaningfully progressed with only weeks left on the schedule. These included the porticos, exterior brick samples, simple framing and finish details, unable to install simple door hardware, the HVAC condenser pad (the condenser itself was paid for but not on site), step repointing and masonry, main electrical service, exterior hardware, interior doors (despite a $3,000 advance for them), and the kitchen, which was never properly coordinated, ordered or released. Sea Beast also failed to provide the conditional lien waivers, a simple bill that wasn't a demand for money that needs to be today which was required with each progress payment, and continued to demand additional payment while materially overbilled relative to work completed. I issued a formal Notice of Performance Issue on April 4, 2026 requiring a written cure plan, manpower and sequencing plan, procurement status, revised schedule, lien waivers, and payment reconciliation. Sea Beast acknowledged receipt but did not provide the required cure documentation. I issued a Notice of Default on April 8, 2026 under the contract's default provision, which required cure commencement within 36 hours. The required cure was not provided. I terminated the contract for default and am pursuing damages. I would not hire Sea Beast Design & Construction again and would not recommend them for residential general contracting work. I've filed complaints with the Better Business Bureau and the NJ Division of Consumer Affairs.

We first contracted Lou G & Superior Siding in 2002 to side our entire home in Mountain Lakes. Fast…read moreforward to 2013 ,2 homes and most recently a garage, (pictured in this review) later and Superior continues to impress! Not only are the materials they use incredible, but the people Lou employs to do the job are TOP notch! Lou has been in the business for a long time and let me tell you, he knows what he is doing! There isn't a detail that is overlooked! He really treats every customer like family and he wants to make sure you are completely satisfied! I HIGHLY recommend Lou G. and Superior to anyone looking to side their home! BTW, Lou is SO honest, his pricing is consistent across the board. I learned years ago, that in this business, many contractors price based on zip code. So higher end zip codes automatically get a bump in price. This is not the case with Superior!

The prices were competitive, but the quality of materials and the designs they offered were far superior. They did our closets and I absolutely love them, and have already recommended them to friends. Actually they were recommended to me by a friend who had their kitchen done by them as well. I was so impressed by their attention to detail and how careful and respectful of my home. They placed the material they brought for the job on blankets so they wouldn't scratch my floors (who else does that?). I'm telling you if you have ever gotten work done from contractors or cabinet guys and been disappointment, then you are in for a treat!

They were incredibly professional and responsive, gave us a fair price, made it easy to schedule, etc. It was all fabulous service until the crew came today. One employee was in our basement and wanted to show us something. He called up from the stairs and asked, "Where's the man of the house?" I, a woman, looked at him in disbelief. My husband, also appalled, tried to joke that I'm the man of the house. The employee laughed, dismissed the idea, and insisted my husband go down to the basement so he could outline the work they were about to do. Needless to say, this was incredibly insulting, unprofessional, and - for heaven's sake - it's 2024. Other than being made to feel less than, Obar did a good job with the project.
