I asked for a couple of jobs to be done in my apartment (carpentry, painting, electrical work and set up of an AC unit, skylight sealing, shower grouting). Alex was reliable and his team did a great job. He accommodated to my schedule even this was not a big job and he had big projects going on. I would recommend and will ask again for his services when I need. read more

Alex and his team did a great job with my apartment renovations including a kitchen and bathroom remodel as well as flooring and tile installations. They were very professional and responsive. Alex communicated with me daily to ensure that I am satisfied with the work product. Alex personally reviewed the work and if he thought that an addition that I didn't think of was necessary he would recommend it. These were thoughtful , inexpensive upgrades or no cost suggestions, which make a huge different in the feel of the apartment. I was very satisfied with his services and will use him and his team again. read more

I used them to install a barn door on my bathroom and hang an oversized LED mirror medicine cabinet. They had to build part of the wall to actually install the barn door. The whole experience was very professional. I knew everything that had to be done and there weren't any price surprises. read more

Alex and team are professional, run on time and don't go over budget... we continue to use him year after year.

Alex and his team did a really great job and I would highly recommend them!! I asked them to open a wall that was blocking my kitchen and to make it an open kitchen to the living room and they made it turn out to exactly what I was looking for! They are very reliable, detailed and very responsible. Alex took time to explain to me in detail of the plan, to understand my needs, and to let me know of the progress through each stage. He is an expert and very trustworthy. I'm so lucky I have found them. read more

I worked with Alexander for an office project. The place looked like shambles before the construction. Alexander worked with me and my architect to transform the place into a beautiful, workable space. He was always on call and answered any questions I had. I met with him weekly on site and he had great suggestions and was very patient. His team did a phenomenal job and he was very easy to work with. His price was reasonable as well. I highly recommend Underconstruction AKS! read more

Alex and his team renovated our bathroom in the post pandemic shortage period. Despite many delays in getting supplies, they finished the job nicely. They even came back months later to install the mirror which was unavailable at the time. I recommend them as a construction company. Feel free to ask me any questions. Our building is a fussy one and they abided by all the regulations. read more

It's hard to convey how much of a godsend Alexander and his crew have been, and how grateful I was to find a contractor like him. I messaged a bunch of contractors on Yelp asking about a project to renovate our kitchenette at our new office. All we had was a sink, and we wanted to turn it into a full-functioning kitchen with a countertop, dishwasher, cabinets and a shelf for a microwave. The project was small relative to other home improvement projects, and our budget was tight--the two things you can imagine contractors don't want to hear. Nevertheless, Alexander messaged me back quickly to let me know that he could take on the project. I've never planned or overseen a project like this before, and Alexander truly made me feel like I could trust him the whole way through. He was kind, very communicative throughout our month-ish long correspondence before the construction was actually done, and was transparent about any concerns he had in terms of logistics and our individual kitchen space. He explained everything to me--I never felt like I was in the dark. Furthermore, he was very accepting of the fact that I was trying to spend as little money as possible, and advised me based on our very small budget, resulting in a fair price that I feel incredibly fortunate to have found. Alexander was incredibly accommodating and understanding, too. IKEA delivered nearly all of the furniture for the kitchen, but failed to deliver the countertop. The day of the construction, Alexander didn't think twice and drove all the way down to Brooklyn himself to pick up the countertop, without which we wouldn't have been able to finish the project! I assure you, you want to hire Underconstruction for your project. They are kind, knowledgeable, and professional, and most importantly, 100% trustworthy. 20/10 would recommend to anyone with a home improvement project!! PS The kitchen also looks amazing. read more

Just a heads-up to my fellow Yelpers, unfortunately this business doesn't complete "small jobs," doesn't serve the Bronx (or any place outside of Manhattan and Brooklyn), and only accepts projects at a minimum to 10k per project. Perhaps the owner of this business can update their profile to include the above information. On the upside, the phone call was promptly answered. read more

A neighbor recommended Alex and his company to me. I am so glad. They did an outstanding job for me.

Alex is an expert at running his company. He listens to his clients and helps them decide on whats best for them. I have recommended his company to my friends. read more

Excellent, professional, reliable, reasonable. Abdul-Karim was very responsive to my initial inquiry, never rushed me on the phone or in person.

We highly recommend, and will certainly be use him for future projects. read more

Alex at Underconstruction is a rare breed. I hired him for two jobs and although he is usually in the higher end in terms of pricing, he is good at something most contractors are notoriously bad at... CUSTOMER SERVICE! I had to hire a cheaper company for one of two final phases and I am missing him already! read more

Alex was professional, easy to work with, and offered a reasonable quote to begin with. I would most definitely use Alex for future projects. read more

I hired Alexander for two smaller jobs - installing a kitchen backsplash, and installing a carpet runner on my staircase. He was prompt in responding and coming over for a quote; he thought through the jobs with me and had helpful suggestions, and his quoted price was fair. His staffer, Peter, started work a few days later and finished up after two and a half days, making sure to clean up after everything was done. Overall, we're very happy with the results and would definitely hire Alexander for similar jobs in the future! Thanks read more

Alex and his team were great. They installed crown molding for indirect lighting in our bathroom. The team arrived on time with all of their tools and the they were able to install the molding within a matter of few hours. Plus, they carefully cleaned up everything and vacuumed all the dust after they finished. Before the installation, Alex visited our apartment and explained how the crown molding would be installed and walked through the process with us. Very happy with the end result, and would definitely contact Alex for future projects around the apartment read more

My husband and I purchased a hundred year old home in Brooklyn in March 2021, and we knew it needed some work--the inspector pointed out a leaky radiator, some old wiring, but nothing we thought we couldn't handle. We were first time home owners! We closed and immediately started looking for a contractor. I reached out to Under Construction, and the owner Alex scheduled a time to meet with me at the house to look things over. From that initial meeting, I liked Alex's approach: he was honest and practical, aware of the strain buying a house puts on one's finances and quick to offer options and ideas to keep us within budget. We soon realized there was much more work to be done than we'd initially thought--the sewer pipes under the house were the original clay pipes installed in the 1920s, and they basically all needed to be replaced. This meant the basement floor had to be completely torn up and replaced as well. Needless to say, we had not budgeted for this and were concerned about cost, and we had no previous experience with this kind of renovation project. Alex calmly and clearly explained what had to be done, what decisions had to be made, and walked us through an optimistic time table. After we shopped for and selected our new tile floor, he picked up our order, brought it to the house, and worked closely with me to ensure the pattern and overall look was exactly what we wanted. The end result looks beautiful; we're very happy with it. But if that weren't enough, literally the day before we were scheduled to move in the furniture from our apartment, I discovered a massive leak in the kitchen coming down from the shower upstairs. The kitchen was a mess, and our upstairs shower was essentially unusable until it was fixed. Alex came over right away to look over the damage and start scheduling the work that needed to be done. Unfortunately we couldn't delay moving in at that point, which meant we were living in the house with no usable shower--the one in the basement was inaccessibly because the floor wasn't finished, and the one upstairs had to be entirely ripped out and replaced. At this point, we were extremely concerned about our budget, and also impatient to be finished with the work and able to settle into our new home. Alex diverted his attention to completing the upstairs shower as quickly as possible, and he and his team worked every day--including weekends--to get it done. He was able to offer us no-interest financing for part of our project, so that we didn't have to take out an extra loan and were able to keep building back our savings. Because of our budgetary and scheduling concerns, I kept emphasizing that we simply wanted to shower done as soon as possible: it didn't need to look perfect, we could redo it in a couple years if we want, we just needed a way to take a shower! And while he did get it done very quickly, the new tile they put in looks beautiful, expertly cut and installed and water-proof--it's the nicest shower I've ever used, better than you find in the most expensive hotels. Given the age of the house, there's still a lot of work to do--we're planning to replace the boiler, redo the wiring, install new trim...the list goes on. But Alex has helped us make multi-year plans (and budgets) so that we can take our time renovating and address the house's "problem areas" before they become urgent issues. Through all the work we've done so far, Alex has handled our permit applications, kept thorough and detailed track of the work done and the cost, and has never exceeded his initial estimate for any job--everything has come in at our under what he quoted us. I would strongly recommend him to anyone looking to improve their home--great work from a friendly, knowledgeable contractor at an affordable price! read more

We had a mid size project in the form of removing a wall in our new condo. Similar to many others who had posted on Yelp, we had searched and placed inquiries to few other contractors on Yelp. Alex was by far most responsive and professional. Alex and his team not only pays close to the details of their work but also pays close attention to ensuring that the apartment was well prepped and also cleaned up properly after the work is complete. As most of us know, many of contractors will do the work but the same contractors will also leave our happy homes in a mess when the work is done. This was not the case with Alex and crew, they are professional and very cautious in ensuring that nothing is damaged as the work is progressing. Alex also was very good at communicating to us on what him and his team was going to do each step of the way which is definitely a huge plus when you have condo boards and other intermediaries which one have to deal with. The price quoted was also very reasonable compare to other contractors but more importantly the quality of work was exceptional. We also had his team put on a new coat of paint for our condo which was something that was not originally anticipated, but Alex and team once again delivered with exceptional quality and reasonably priced. Thank You Alex and your team for a job well done. Also a special shout out to Troy the foreman, thanks for being so diligent. Mark read more

Honest. Professional. Pleasant. Thorough. Knowledgeable. Flexible. These are all things we look for in a contractor but it's hard to find someone who encompasses all of them. Alexander fits the bill. We needed what we thought was a fairly simple job - replacing a bathtub and some of the tiled wall around it. We had several contractors come take a look. All either wouldn't take the job (too small), or said they'd do it but only if we agreed to renovate the entire bathroom (or they'd just charge an exorbitant amount for their favor). Finally, after asking everyone I know for recommendations to no avail and searching Yelp many times, I came upon Underconstruction's profile (it didn't show up the previous times for some reason). I gave Alexander a call and he came the next day. Then he returned with the plumber he uses (also a fantastic guy in his own right) to get a better idea of what would need to be done, before giving us a final, reasonable estimate. The job took a few days longer than expected but that was because Alexander and his team were very thorough and came upon some underlying structural issues that needed to be addressed. Alexander and his team worked really hard for many hours each day. They also went above and beyond by doing things such as vacuuming up after themselves each day, removing all their garbage, and being very (patiently) communicative throughout the process. They were very pleasant throughout, trying their best not to be in anyone's way. This guy has integrity and is actually good at what he does, which isn't easy to find. Would highly recommend him. read more

We used Underconstruction.Aks to renovate our 30+ year old kitchen. It required: removing several layers of old flooring and installing new; removing old cabinets, retro-fitting one, constructing one, and re-installing both old refurbished and some new cabinets; repairing the ceiling and some walls, both plaster and sheet rock; and adding molding to walls and cabinets. Alexander and his crew showed up every day on time, put in a full day, and cleaned up afterward. They worked hard to accommodate our every need, and I love my new kitchen! read more
