I was going to change just one half of the roof + garage layover and Carlos advised it's best to change the entire roof and skip the garage layover (this wasn't a upsell because Carlos did the job for the same price). I was very happy with the entire process and job, and would highly recommend this company!

He did everything he said he would do and more. New roof, replaced the eaves and rotted wood, covered all the architectural detail and put in all new gutters. The transformation was nothing short of incredible. All the crews were masters at their craft. Mindful of all my outside things....and cleanup was immaculate. Pricing was very reasonable...and no surprise fees! It came out so much better than I even could imagine. What a pleasure it was to find Carlos and his crew. They made this project a dream come true rather than the nightmare I thought it would be! Trust me..call Carlos...you'll have no regrets!

Building management sent Papermill and I was not expecting anything more than the minimum acceptable quality. Boy was I mistaken! Not only did they fix everything in under a day (including laying down and hanging plastic sheeting to contain any mess) but they took a paint sample and came back the next day and painted. By the time they were done the area they did actually looked better than any other part of my ceiling! The paint was a perfect match and there wasn't a speck of dust to be found. In my decades of working as an IT project manager and on new construction and remodeling jobs I have never found a contractor as conscientious and skilled as them! I wholeheartedly recommend them.

I had an absolutely horrendous experience with Alberto. If you value your time, money, and sanity,…read moredo yourself a favor and avoid this company at all costs. From the very beginning, their communication was abysmal. He rarely answered calls or emails, leaving us completely in the dark about the progress of our project. The quality of their work was shockingly poor. Walls were uneven, paint was sloppy, and they made countless errors that required expensive fixes. It was clear they lacked the necessary skills and experience. Their workers were consistently late, and on several occasions, they didn't show up at all, causing significant delays. To make matters worse, they went way over budget without any prior warning or explanation. When we questioned the additional charges, they became defensive and rude. Their lack of professionalism and respect was astounding. All of the good reviews are made up. !!!!!!!!!!!!!AVOID ALBERTO AT ALL COST!!!!!!!!!!!!

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!! I ditto everything J.W's review…read moresaid. I hired them to gut reno my bathroom and paint my apt. Unprofessional, sloppy, non-compliant work. They ruined my shades, broke a vase, got paint splatter on so many things. I already have 4 cracked shower tiles-it happened the week they finished. They didn't level walls, or tiles or use spacers. They didn't trowel thinset. Grout lines are below standard width. Now I have to sue him to get money back for a redo.

We own a two bed room co-op on Ocean Parkway. The building is well over 70 years old and our…read moreapartment walls were in horrible shape. Al (owner and worker) scraped the walls and plastered the entire place except for the bathroom and kitchen which were in good shape. He painted the entire apartment. He gutted and installed a new shower stall and re did the internet cable so it looked great. He did other stuff as well but those were the major pieces. My wife and I live 250 miles away in Washington DC so hiring a contractor for our project in Brooklyn was intimidating as many of the quotes we got were from contractors who were hostile or hard to work with. When we found Al we knew we hit gold. He did an amazing job on every front. And when he made a mistake, he took care of it at his cost. This only happened a couple of times when his guy broke the shower handle and they took off the picture hook molding by mistake. All gave us regular updates and moved the project along quickly. I can't say enough good about his attention to detail and his desire to look out for our well being. I am sad that he works so far from our home as I would hire him in a heart beat to do all the work we need on our 100 year old house. Often he would suggest better ways to get something done. Such as the plastering. They gave several coats of plaster and used a mesh so that these walls would last another 30 years if not more. He redid the shower stall when it did not look exactly perfect. He got the job done on time and within budget and with renovation there are always surprises. He just took care of them and was so friendly and communicative. He rocks! He lives his word and is totally trustworthy. I told Al my wife and I would give him references if he ever wanted them from us. When we first started to talk to him he gave me four folks to call and all had great things to say about him. He is not the cheapest and he is not the most expensive, he charges a fair price that made me feel great about paying him. Your friends may tell you to pay less or that it should not take so long. And I can tell you from experience the end result is the only metric for success in a project where you are taking apart a 70-80 year old apartment and bringing it up to speed. For example when they dug out the old shower he found leaky pipes. He could have ignored it and just did what we paid him for, but for another 600 dollars (which our building will pay for) he made sure it was fixed and saved us thousands of dollars down the road when another contractor/plumber would have to dig it all up and do it again. He always consulted with our super to make sure everything was done to the buildings specification. Al was at the job site doing the work most of the time. He is a skilled worker and not just a manager.

Firstly, my husband was tasked with finding a contractor to redo our only bathroom. We met with 3…read moredifferent individuals and ultimately we chose Carlos because of his attention to detail, transparency and reliability. If you ever dealt with contractors you know some can be extremely shady and not show up or not deliver a quality job. We've been through it and had very sloppy jobs in our home. But from the beginning Carlos was very professional. He drafted out a detailed contract and we felt he was the best to do the job. With two small children we needed a specific set of dates and he was able to accommodate our request. We trusted him and we are glad we chose to work with him. We look forward to working with him on future projects.

All other contractors wanted to remove and replace fence ENTIRELY! I appreciate someone that I pay, try to save ME money. He will be back to do main bathroom soon.

The big problem with Nelby Contracting is that they made a complete plumbing disaster in the bathroom and left us without heat for the entire winter. I had to hire a professional licensed plumber to fix the bathroom. In addition, we had hired Nelby Contracting to fix our sidewalk and backyard. I thought they had done a good job until 5 months later the sidewalk pavers began to swell up and rise. I let Nelby know of the situation and he promised to pass by and repair the issue. Nelby never showed up to fix the problem. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend Nelby Contracting and had to hire another contractor to remodel the rest of my apartment.
