He took the money and did nothing -- no demolition, no construction, not even a permit filed (confirmed by our co-op management). Then he went silent. I told him my 83-year-old mother's health was declining, documented by her own physician, and that she couldn't safely be displaced for a renovation. I asked for our money back. He agreed on the spot -- then never paid. Months of silence forced me to hire an attorney just to get a response. Through counsel, he has already admitted, that he owes us this refund. My mother is 83 years old and sick, and this money is needed for her medical care. Yosef Tatik has known that since May. He has let a frail, elderly woman wait for months on a refund he has admitted owing her. He took our money, did not perform any work, and has shown no urgency or decency about giving it back. Do not trust this contractor with your money or your family!

I reached out to Joseph and his team to remodel and reconstruct my kitchen after discovering that…read morethe open shelving in my new apartment was poorly installed. The open shelving and the cabinets were not reinforced into the walls, had started coming loose, and were at risk of falling down. Joseph and his team solved my problem by building proper load bearing walls, and on top of it, helped to redesign my kitchen and reconfigure my cabinets space. The team handled everything from design, demo, ordering, move out/in, and reconstruction very well. Their attention to detail was spot on and I felt comfortable fully putting this project in their hands. Now I get more utility out of my kitchen from the details that the team put in--no more wasted space in cabinet blind spots, hidden corner lazy susan--and it looks amazing.

On install day, the crew took really great care getting the heavy double vanity upstairs and Paul handled multiple unforeseen complications while communicated them with me. Thank you!!

His workers speak very highly of him and he shows up in the beginning to make sure the job is started properly. My schedule was tight and he did everything to accommodate me sending his guys on a Saturday and they stayed late too! My issue is 90% of everything ended up needing to be repaired afterwards... things were put on wrong /backwards (shower door), messed up my bathroom door where it wouldn't close anymore, did a job with tiles in bathroom and made a decision without consulting with me and I hated the results and told him so I'm stuck with it unless I pay to have it redone. Getting in touch with him and to return was challenging. I was told they would start on a certain date to fix the mistakes.... This is after months and renegotiating when they could come. The reason my ratings aren't lower is because Paulie did send his men to fix the issues (I sent pictures that were undeniable that the work was not up to standards). I decided to push for a week day (which he told me numerous of times it was easier to schedule). 2 men showed up and did a GREAT JOB in fixing the previous issues. So I say do not get work done on the weekends.... It was stressful, they also turned off my dryer or heater without telling me... of course my not knowing I thought it was broken.... The list goes on.... Luckily Paulie caught it when I complained my dryer suddenly stopped working (not realizing his men caused this!)....

We did a full-house renovation and needed a company that could do a quality job in a timely manner…read moreand not bust the budget. We scheduled a meeting with the lead contractor at Goldman Home Improvement, at our home where we discussed the project and we were quite impressed when he shared his ideas during this initial review. He talked with us for a bit to find out our style and lead us in the proper direction related to the aesthetics and structure of our home. We found Dorota to be very knowledgeable of her craft. We met a few more times to review the architecture plans and decided to go with Goldman Home Improvements. To give you an overview, we purchased a ranch-style home and decided to expand by adding our master bedroom ensuite on the upper level. In addition, we had to gut the kitchen, two bathrooms, the family room and the dining room. To open up the space, we had to relocate the stairs and move a few walls. We added new windows and doors throughout the entire home, as well as updated all electrical, and plumbing. Since we added the second level master ensuite, we decided to replace the entire roof and made it all the same color. It was a huge job and oh my goodness, the Goldman Home Improvement team performed well above expectations. We had no idea the amount of work involved in this process and his team of people worked with us, very closely, throughout the entire process. And for this, we are grateful. Of course, during the process we wanted to make additional changes once the walls and ceilings came down. The contractor came out, discussed the project, gave us a 'yes' or 'no' recommendation and we took his advice. And if there was a need to involved the architect, he let us know that too. If something was too costly or could not be done due to the structure of the home, he advised us. Having the opportunity to communicate with your contractor is always a plus because we didn't know everything about this process. So this open line of communication was awesome. We were totally impressed with the workmanship, the professionalism as well as the willingness to stay in communication with us. Always the professional, the team went out of their way to ensure that we were happy with their work. When we stopped by, they walked us through the project, ensured our satisfaction and proceeded to complete their projects. We learned so much during this renovation and never thought we would be selecting products like a transfer valve, a pressure balancing diverter to a square designed shower drain, molding, right-hand or left-hand doors, etc. We thought all we needed were a few toilets, vanities and faucets. Ha! After all is said and done, we probably would not have had this pleasant of an experience without the help of the entire Goldman Home Improvement team. Even though, we stopped by daily to see the progress, we can't tell you how excited we were to see the completed project. Everything, except the basement is new...that's next. Michael and his team gave us that reassurance by delivering an exceptional product through skilled craftsmanship. I would be lying if I said that this was not a tedious, stressed and sometimes overwhelming process; but, in all honesty the Goldman Home Improvement team made it less overwhelming. And we appreciate their patience. It was and still is an amazing feeling when we look around our home. We have a very beautiful and a very comfortable home and look forward to enjoying time by the fireplace or sipping coffee while sitting in the sunroom with the touch of beautiful floors adding warmth to your feet. When family and friends stop by they are very impressed. They love everything, the kitchen, bathrooms, sunroom and of course the fabulous master ensuite. The soaker tub, along with multiple jets and the steam shower adds a sense of luxury to the master bath. And we enjoy every moment of it! Now, would we recommend Goldman Home Improvement; the answer is yes. Would we use Goldman Home Improvement on a future project; yes, as that basement is next. Lastly, based on our experiences we would definitely recommend this company for any home improvement needs. Thank you for creating our beautiful home. Warm Regards, Jacob & Danielle Louis Ossining, NY

I've had to re-post this review a few times now ... somehow my negative reviews of Goldman Home…read moreImprovement keep vanishing from Google, Angi/Home Advisor and Yelp, leaving only 5-star reviews. I don't know how he does that, but I insist on re-posting because I feel you need to hear about my experience before deciding on something as important as a contractor for your home. For starters, Hussein Hussein of Goldman Home Improvement is NOT LICENSED to conduct home renovations in NY State. The license number he listed on his contract is not only expired; it was never a general contractor's license, it was a SALES license. NYS is cracking down on sales people pretending to be GC's, so his license will never be renewed. I urge you to call 311 and check for yourself if you are considering hiring this company. After working with him for almost 4 months I can attest: While Hussein clearly has a gift for sales (he could sell ocean water to a fish!), he lacks the basic knowledge of how a home works structurally; he's only capable of doing the surface aesthetic stuff. For example, I asked him to create tray ceilings in my bedrooms, and showed him many pictures of what a tray ceiling looks like. He removed the ceiling beams ... and then he obviously had no clue what to do next!! He kept staring at the ceiling, then looking at me, then back at the ceiling. Finally, he uttered: "There is no way to reinforce the beams. I cannot guarantee the ceiling will not fall in on you." I kid you not, these were his actual words!!! The contractor I hired to finish the job confirmed that, sure enough, had Hussein finalized my apt, the ceiling would have indeed buckled and fallen in!!! Additionally, Hussein could care less about the efficiency of your home (even though HE was the one who insisted I put in central AC instead of mini-splits, he refused to insulate the whole apartment, despite it being on my dime); he won't even consider doing anything that's out of the norm (I asked him to add soundproofing--again, at my expense--he absolutely refused); he uses the cheapest, unqualified trades (his plumber pitched the plumbing away from the drain, so the water has to travel against gravity!!!); and he uses only cheap materials (he works exclusively with Floor and Decor). When I hired Hussein to conduct a complete gut of my Brooklyn apt, I made the huge mistake of paying him a substantial portion up front ($50,000). After 3.5 months, he had not put in a new kitchen, new bathrooms, or new laundry room. He never replaced my floors, doors, windows or fireplace. He did not deliver central air conditioning as promised, nor did he upgrade my electric panel. He completed about 8% of the scope of work items outlined in the contract, but retained 45% of the payment, and refuses to refund me. My attorney tells me I have a solid case of breach of contract. Worse: THE FEW THINGS HUSSEIN COMPLETED WERE EXECUTED SO POORLY, IT ALL HAD TO BE DEMOLISHED AND RE-DONE. The tray ceiling had to be completely reconstructed and reinforced. The skylight he installed leaked heavily at the first rain, and had to be replaced. The hatch ladder he installed makes it impossible to access my roof -- the whole point of the ladder -- without being an olympic gymnast!! The walls he framed were wobbly. And Hussein instructed me to NOT tell the electrician -- the guy who was upgrading my electric panel -- that I'd be adding a washer, dryer, dishwasher, and air conditioning "because he will charge too much money". Seriously?? How does one upgrade the electrical panel without communicating ones electric needs to the electrician? When I confronted him on these issues, he reacted with mercurial temper--HE QUIT! So I was forced to bring in a qualified contractor mid-project to un-do all the damage Hussein had done and start over -- effectively DOUBLING my renovation budget and timeline! And now I'm mired in a lawsuit. Spare yourself the nightmare, go elsewhere!!
