I thought I properly protected a minimalist, blonde wood frame before we moved from White Plains to…read moreThe Catskills- but when I started unpacking my picture frame boxes, one of them had a nasty break during the move with the company we hired. I've had luck in the past taking pictures frames to my local Michael's in Westchester, but now that I'm up here, I wanted to support a small business. Valentina Custom Frame & G. on Main St in New Paltz has its own parking lot- which makes it super easy if you can't find any parking on the strip. Between modern, rustic, wood, ornate and other frame styles, this small shop, showcases at least 100, 200+ (if not more) samples to choose from. Valentina aims to please because the moment I came here with a desperate look on my face and showed her the frame, she eased my worries and explained what how she'll fix it. At $25 to fix my frame- not only did I get a banging deal and she brought my frame back to life- but she's professional and passionate about all things frames.

Valentina took the time to understand what I was looking for and walked me through the various…read moreoptions. One item I wanted framed was the embroidered section of a pillow my mom had made. She was able to extract that section and insert it into a beautiful frame that highlights the embroidery. The quality of the frames and the framing itself is fantastic and clearly above what you would find if you tried to do it yourself or went to a Michael's. Plus I now have the peace of mind that my mom's artwork is preserved forever.

He extended our fencing; installed an interior wall; installed drywall and insulation; and also handled adding trim, painting, and installing TVs in the new room. This was our first major project as homeowners, and Mark was very helpful and communicative throughout the process. He did excellent work, and asked excellent questions about what we wanted. He was efficient and thorough, and completed all of the steps of the process well within the time frame we expected. We were very happy with the quality of work performed and would gladly hire Mark again for our next home project.

Unfortunately, once his crew was done, the remaining cement they had from my patio, they packed it along the sides of my new patio, left huge chunks of dried cement all over my yard and left.

Like everyone in our area we have high water table. Disregarding this they dug a small pit for the septic field and placed the infiltrators literally underwater. I'm no expert but even I thought this was not going to work. The "boss" came by to survey the situation and simply dumped gravel on top of it and cover it with dirt in order to obscure the underlying problem. 9 months later our system backed up. Our septic tank is taking on water that's backing up from the septic field. We've had our septic tank pumped twice in one week. I notified them of this problem and they initially said they'd come and survey the situation and offer a solution. But then they just ghosted me. After trying to contact them many times and finally threatening legal action, I finally got an email from the owner, David Friedlander, claiming to offer a solution. But he has since gone silent and never came by. We are now forced to hire an attorney to try to recover the cost of having to repeatedly pump our tank and fixing our septic field which is flowing backwards into the tank. Be warned.

Anthony called me back the next day, and came to look at my house that afternoon. He got back to me within another day or so with options and estimates. We quickly agreed on a price that felt reasonable and fair; it included not only a replacement, but also disposal of all the old roofing materials, and a full lifetime warranty. Today, less than two weeks after my initial call, I got my new roof. Anthony's crew showed up on time, were friendly and polite, and worked hard. They were careful about spreading tarp all around the house to catch everything that came off, and then did a very thorough job of clean up. My roof looks fantastic, and I am HUGELY relieved to know that my house is finally fully protected from the elements. I'm extremely happy with the work North East Remodeling Group did. I'll use them again the next time I need work on my house, and would highly recommend them to anyone.

We were initially nervous about choosing the right team, but seakill brought us into the process like partners, focused on building an excellent home that would make our lives here incredible, and never sacrificed craftsmanship as they executed an incredible timeline. They hired and coordinated the best for each trade and it shows. Seakill is well known and respected in the area and it's obvious why- we will definitely be hopeful to schedule them for an addition (basement finishing and maybe a garage!) They were detail oriented, have excellent communication, built an outstanding energy-efficient home, and the quality is apparent. As this was our first home, we were (and are) incredibly grateful for the seakill team.
