    By far, this is the worst person and company I've dealt with when it comes to contracting. I was given his number from a referral for my very specific project. Joe was asked to replicate a piece of tin molding for a historic building. When asked, he stated yes, he replicates molding. He stated that he required $50 to provide an estimate. He was paid immediately with no questions asked because this is a time-sensitive job. After going back and forth with trying to schedule the first appointment. It was scheduled successfully but when the person was on his way Joe called and stated he would need to remove at least 5 feet of existing molding from this historic building. My question to him was why not make a mold on site? If you can duplicate molding, removing the molding from a historic building should not be part of the scope. Making a mold on-site should be the task, because had he shared this information with me from the beginning I would never have moved forward with his company. Instead, Joe kept adding twists and turns along the way. He took the $50 for the estimate and could not provide results. After weeks of going back and forth, we decided that we would have someone come on-site and duplicate the molding. The gentlemen came but guess what? No molds were made for the moldings to be duplicated but the gentlemen stated that Joe would get back to me. About seven days later Joe gets back to me and states that now he needs a permit and scaffolding. He all of a sudden needs these different things that are not required for what it is that I am requesting. Similar to going into Home Depot and purchasing a box of prefab molding. We are asking that he duplicate what we already have. We don't need scaffolding- the molding is visible and touchable by me who is 5 ft 2 inches. We don't need permits because we have a company of contractors with permits who will be installing the molding on the building, he just needed to duplicate the mold and provide it to us. Joe then sent a quote for $1200 and $12,000 without measurements. I asked him how someone give a quote with measurements for $12,000 or $1200 he said this is how he does his job at this point. This was a waste of time. This is a waste of energy and this was a waste of money. I go online and I see that Yelp reviews are horrible and learn that this man can't do the job! This is why there is excuse after excuse and reason after reason. It's evident NOW that he's NOT a person who does molding. He's a general contractor who is a painter and plumber. He could not do the job and this is why it's not turned into an OSHA, permit, license, and scaffolding thing. This is why the job was not done and why there was so much back-and-forth. Had just had to be honest from the beginning we would never be here. Do not use Got Work!

    I have been a customer of "Joe's Got Work" (JGW) for about five years now, and value the company as a "go-to" service provider.

    I spoke with Damian. He was excellent, very honest and helpful.. I highly recommend this company.read more

    Working with Damian and his team has been a pleasure. We emailed for a quote and he asked some…read morequestions and for some photos of the space. (Every other person we emailed for a quote did the same. None came to visit, and with COVID I was cool with that.) His quote was consistent with most of the other highly rated folk we reached out to for quotes. What set him apart was his clear emails with detailed pricing. It was clear that he knew painting was expensive, and people imagine doing everything at once and think of it as all-or-nothing. His pricing model showed it was some-at-a-time. (We did go all in though :) ) He was very responsive on email and answered questions from the mundane to the esoteric with patience and clarity. He came the day before the job was supposed to start to drop off supplies and map out everything that was should happen with me and his team. His team was great, polite, and professional. The speed and quality of the work was amazing. Everyone was happy to answer questions and explain what was happening. For me, the true test was with an accident that happened. Relatively minor, but Damian took full ownership and made it right without any discussion. That is how you do it. He gave great advice throughout the process, and respected what I needed. Have already asked for quotes on additional spaces in the house. Highly recommend.

From start to finish celso and he's team were professional, punctual, and incredibly detail-oriented. They prepped everything carefully, protected our floors and furniture, and made sure every seam and edge lined up flawlessly. The wallpaper looks like it's always belonged there, and the paint job is clean, smooth, and beautifully done. Communication was great throughout the project, pricing was fair, and they finished right on schedule. It's rare to find craftsmanship like this anymore. Highly recommend, I'd happily hire them again!

The first person who answered stopped me before I could finish my question. He didn't work with peel-and-stick wallpaper. "Goodbye." Click. The second person never answered and never returned my call. Then I called Celso. He picked up on the third ring, immediately confirmed that peel-and-stick was no problem, and was happy to come to Brooklyn. Within 24 hours of our conversation, his installer was on site and the wallpaper was beautifully installed and finished. I cannot say enough good things about the experience. Celso's communication was excellent from start to finish. His installer was patient, meticulous, and took great pride in the work. The finished result exceeded our expectations. Professional, responsive, skilled, and fairly priced. I have absolutely no reservations recommending Celso and his crew.
