West Village must be one of if not the best contractor in New York. I hired them to complete a…read moretotal renovation of my apartment after a building-wide flood and received my home better than it was before the water damage. Throughout the project the team had multiple touch points with us including a weekly video call to discuss progress & next steps and weekly summaries of work completed. They were thoughtful in sourcing materials and provided excellent recommendationss as we considered modifications throughout the space. The work was completed not only ahead of schedule, but also within budget, which was crucial given this was an insurance claim. The quality of the work exceeded expectations and the positive attitude of the team made the entire process stress-free. Any future construction projects I need will be awarded to them!

West Village General Contractors is as good as it gets. They are professional, deliver what they…read morepromise, and absolute perfectionists. They are expensive but worth every penny. If you want a perfect job, completed when promised, this is the company to use. I began with one project and added to it. They were careful about making sure I knew exactly what each additional thing would cost, and the length of time that would be required. I got several bids before beginning my project and various timeframes. WVGC was honest about the length of time that would be required. We had weekly meetings and they remained exactly on schedule. They were referred to me by someone else in my building who'd used them, and who was equally impressed with their work. They were right on top of every detail the entire way through the project. They finished exactly when they'd promised, and everything was perfect. In finishing up with a very short punch list, they have been as responsive after having been paid as they were along the line. I would hire WVGC again in a minute. I am afraid I'm spoiled. I have used many contractors over the years, and these people were by far the most professional. They told me when it was not worth doing something I considered adding to my project. I should also say that they are extremely careful and their work is neat. When my apartment was turned back to me, I was extremely impressed with how they had been so careful in protecting other parts of the apartment. My building staff also mentioned to me that they were very impressed with their professionalism and told me how they stood apart from other contractors. The entire staff was a pleasure to work with, and they were amazingly responsive. Any time anything needed to be approved, changed, or ordered, there was always the project manager or assistant project manager who would be available to accomplish what needed to be accomplished. The two principals were also a pleasure to deal with -- so, I guess you can tell from this review that I was extremely happy with their perfectionistic work, their fair prices, and their attention to detail, as well as their responsiveness. They are not the least expensive contractors, but their work is clearly so superior that it is worth paying a little more. I really cannot too highly recommend WVGC.

Let's hope that I will not need them to follow up on their guarantee. They guaranteed that it will be done before Chinese new year, done 2 days before the date. This company sweeps and cleans every hour to minimize the amount of dust and debris for my dad (who was living in in the house during the reno.) Every time we pointed out a concern they fixed it on the spot. They are a full service company. Design. Materials and supply recommendations as well as requisitions. Addressed all my concern promptly. We communicated mainly through email and text. Lastly Maia, Alex, Robert & the techs are just really nice people and very easy to work with. I would recommend them to my family. I will work with them in the future.

The most impressive part was that they finished the work pretty quickly, which saved us a lot of money in the end because we were staying at an airbnb during the renovation.

He was confident he could pull it off and his assurance was a relief. It seemed like every corner we turned there was a problem with asbestos, old pipes, structural floor damage or wiring in the way. Matt was extremely adaptive and creative on the fly. His communication through everything was our saving grace. From steam pipes in the way or the floors caving in, it was extremely impressive to watch the solutions come into play. He had pipes rerouted or removed altogether and completely re-framed portions of our floors. One part of the floor was a brick floor over a basement that had started to cave in. Matt knocked out all the loose brick and poured a slab that tied into the solid brick. I had no idea how a giant hole in our brick floor was going to be fixed but he adapted seemingly without a hitch in the entire project. I would highly recommend Matt and his company Exedra!

Matt is a true partner throughout the process, and gave me great advice every step of the way. This was my first remodeling experience, and his guidance was both invaluable and comforting - I felt like I was in really good hands. He worked closely with me in designing our space, and then handled every single aspect of our renovation - from sourcing materials, to demolition, to coordinating with the plumber and electrician, to installing our kitchen cabinets and appliances, and re-tiling and re-grouting both of our bathrooms with new fixtures and lighting. My apartment is pre-war and therefore a little tricky when it comes to making things look level and even, however, Matt figured out how to make everything look flawless and brand new. He always remained within my budget, and continually offered solutions for how to trim costs or source materials for less. Matt is also incredibly responsive; he and I communicated frequently throughout the day when he was working in my apartment, which I really appreciated. He was a pleasure to work with, and I definitely plan on hiring Matt again if I move (although he's made my current space so wonderful, I'm not sure that will happen any time soon!). Matt is a total professional - his work turns out beautifully, and he's a pleasure to work with.

We did a gut…read morerenovation of bathroom and kitchen, sanded and stained floors, built out two closets (wall work), did some large demolition, and did electrical work such as adding fixtures. Hiring a contractor is like getting married - you are going to be spending a lot of time with the person, so trust and communication are key. I met three contractors at my apartment to get an idea of price and their approach to the work. One contractor came recommended by someone in the building, but when he told me that he recommended scaling back part of my bathroom renovation to make the project easier, it didn't sit well with me. If the contractor is saying "No" at the beginning, imagine how that is going to sound one month into the project. One contractor seemed great in person, had a lot of ideas, sent me a detailed quote, and then was very hard to reach for weeks, explaining that he was doing a lot of traveling. I believed him, but I am on my phone all the time, and I wanted someone more accessible. Although I was tempted to go with the second person, I was a little weary about the communication issue. A friend who works in real estate told me that is normal with contractors, that you have to bug them to get a response. I believed him until I spoke with Jeff, who is the owner of Prime Renovations. He met me on time, replied to my emails and phone calls quickly, and had a lot of ideas for make my renovation happen. There were a number of pros to choosing Prime Renovations: - Communication: This is huge, Jeff is available by email and phone all the time. This is so important when you are dealing with all the stress of a renovation. - Quality: Very high. I am a little shocked when I look around my apartment. It looks so nice that my wife and I can't believe that we live here. This also meant that many little things were done that make the project look high end. - Subcontractors (flooring, painting, electrical, plumbing): These guys were excellent. When we had an issue or wanted to change things, such as the location of our chandelier, moving a ceiling fan, dealing with a problem dishwasher, etc., Jeff was quick to deal with it. - Integrity. I don't use this word lightly. I am a psychiatrist and spend all day trying to help people understand their motivations. I believe that Jeff is an honestly good person who would not cheat a client. Although renovation is inevitably stressful, I trusted him with my home. As a result, we love living in our renovated apartment. I am thankful I chose to work with Jeff and Prime Renovations. ONE YEAR UPDATE: The quality still looks great. We had an issue with the W/D and Jeff came out himself to look at it and then sent the plumber, who came for free. Outstanding guarantee. Also, my father is an engineer and home builder outside of the city and he specializes in spotting mistakes and errors in construction. He stayed with me for a few days and spontaneously said that the construction was very well done, especially the small details. Huge compliment and it speaks to the quality of my renovation. I love my apartment post renovation.
