You get a contractor who picks up when you call. Not three days later, not after you’ve left two voicemails—every time.
Your kitchen remodel or bathroom renovation doesn’t drag on for months with excuses about supply issues or crew problems. The timeline we give you is the timeline we hit, and if something changes, you hear about it immediately—not when you notice it yourself.
The crew that shows up treats your home like it’s theirs. Drop cloths go down. Debris gets cleaned daily. You’re not living in a construction zone any longer than necessary.
And when the job’s done, you’re not chasing us down for final touches or warranty work. We’re still here, still answering, still taking care of you—because that’s how you build a business that lasts over 40 years in Nassau County.
We’ve been handling residential projects across Merrick, Wantagh, Bellmore, and the surrounding Nassau County area since the early 1980s. We’re a family operation—Ray and his son work directly on your project, not some rotating cast of subcontractors you’ve never met.
We hold a BuildZoom score of 125, which puts us in the top 1% of all licensed contractors in New York State. That’s not marketing speak—it’s based on permit history, project completion, and client feedback. We carry a $1 million insurance policy because protecting your home and your investment isn’t optional.
You’re hiring people who know Merrick. We understand how Long Island winters affect your pipes, your siding, your roof. We’ve seen what happens when contractors cut corners on insulation or use the wrong materials for coastal humidity. We don’t make those mistakes because we’ve been doing this long enough to know better.
First, you call or text us, and we actually respond. We schedule a walkthrough at your home in Merrick to see the space, hear what you want, and talk through what’s realistic for your budget and timeline.
Then we give you a detailed estimate—not a vague ballpark. You’ll know what the project costs, what’s included, and how long it takes. If permits are needed, we handle that process. If they’re not, we move faster.
Once you’re ready to start, we schedule the work around your life as much as possible. Our crew shows up when we say they will, keeps the site clean, and communicates with you throughout. You’re not wondering what’s happening or when someone’s coming back.
When the work’s finished, we walk through everything with you. You point out anything that’s not right, and we fix it before we consider the job done. Then we stay available—if something comes up weeks or months later, you’re not calling a disconnected number.

We specialize in large-scale residential projects—full kitchen remodels, bathroom renovations, first-floor overhauls, dormers, extensions, and whole house renovations. These are the jobs we’re built for, and they’re what we prefer to take on.
In Merrick and across Nassau County, homeowners are investing heavily in their properties instead of moving. With median home values around $716,000 and climbing, it makes sense to renovate the home you already love rather than compete in a tight market. We’ve completed kitchen projects ranging from $25,000 to over $150,000, depending on the scope—new cabinetry, countertops, flooring, lighting, appliances, and layout changes that make the space work better for how you actually live.
Bathroom remodels get the same attention. We’re talking new tile, modern fixtures, improved ventilation, better lighting, and layouts that give you more space or storage. If you’re dealing with an outdated bathroom that hasn’t been touched since the ’90s, we’ve seen it before and know exactly how to bring it into 2025.
We also build additions and dormers when you need more square footage but don’t want to move. These projects require coordination, planning, and crews who know what they’re doing—and we’ve been doing them across Long Island for decades.
Most full kitchen remodels in Merrick and Nassau County run between $25,000 and $150,000, depending on the size of your kitchen and what you’re changing. If you’re keeping the same layout and just updating cabinets, countertops, and appliances, you’re looking at the lower end of that range.
If you’re moving walls, relocating plumbing or electrical, adding an island, or going with high-end finishes, you’ll be closer to the upper end. Custom cabinetry, stone countertops, and premium appliances add up quickly, but they also add significant value to your home.
We give you a detailed estimate upfront so there’s no guessing. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying for and why. And because we’ve been doing this for over 40 years in Nassau County, we can tell you what’s worth the investment and what’s not based on how long you plan to stay in the home.
It depends on what you’re doing. If you’re changing the structure of your home—adding square footage, moving load-bearing walls, building a dormer or extension—you’ll need a permit from the Town of Hempstead. Same goes for major electrical or plumbing work.
If you’re updating finishes—new cabinets, countertops, flooring, paint, fixtures—you typically don’t need a permit. We actually prefer jobs that don’t require permits because they move faster and cost you less in fees and inspections.
When permits are required, we handle the entire process. We pull the permits, schedule inspections, and make sure everything is up to code. You don’t have to deal with the town or worry about whether the work will pass inspection. We’ve done this hundreds of times across Nassau County, and we know exactly what inspectors are looking for.
A full bathroom remodel typically takes two to three weeks from start to finish, assuming there are no major surprises once we open up the walls. If you’re just updating fixtures, tile, and vanity without moving plumbing, it can be closer to one to two weeks.
The timeline depends on the scope of work. If we’re gutting the entire bathroom, relocating the shower or toilet, fixing subfloor issues, upgrading electrical, and installing all new tile and fixtures, it takes longer. But we give you a realistic timeline upfront and stick to it.
We also work efficiently so you’re not without a bathroom for longer than necessary. If it’s your only bathroom, we coordinate the work so you have access to a functioning toilet and sink at the end of each day whenever possible. We’ve done enough bathroom renovations in Merrick to know how disruptive this is to your daily life, and we minimize that disruption as much as we can.
First, make sure they’re licensed and insured. You can verify a contractor’s license through New York State, and they should carry at least $1 million in liability insurance. If they can’t provide proof of either, walk away.
Second, check their track record. How long have they been in business? Do they have a history of completed projects you can verify? A BuildZoom score or similar third-party rating can tell you a lot about whether they finish jobs on time and handle permits correctly.
Third, pay attention to how they communicate. Do they answer the phone? Do they respond to texts and emails promptly? If they’re hard to reach before you hire them, it’s going to be worse once they have your deposit. We answer every call and text because we know how frustrating it is to work with contractors who disappear.
Finally, get a detailed written estimate. Vague quotes lead to surprise costs later. You should know exactly what’s included, what’s not, and what the total cost will be before any work starts.
Yes. Whole house renovations are one of our specialties, and we’ve completed them throughout Merrick, Wantagh, Bellmore, and across Nassau County. These are large-scale projects that typically involve gutting and rebuilding multiple rooms, updating all systems—electrical, plumbing, HVAC—and modernizing the entire home.
Whole house renovations usually take several months depending on the size of your home and the extent of the work. We coordinate everything—demolition, framing, mechanical systems, insulation, drywall, flooring, kitchens, bathrooms, trim, painting. You’re not juggling multiple contractors or trying to schedule different trades yourself.
These projects require careful planning and a contractor who knows how to manage timelines, budgets, and crews. We’ve been doing this for over 40 years, and we have a network of skilled tradespeople we trust to do the work right. You get one point of contact—us—and we handle everything from start to finish.
We serve all of Nassau and Suffolk County, with a focus on Merrick and the surrounding towns—Wantagh, Bellmore, North Merrick, Massapequa, Freeport, and the South Shore of Long Island. We’ve been working in these communities for over four decades, so we know the area well.
If you’re in Nassau County and need a licensed general contractor for a kitchen remodel, bathroom renovation, addition, or whole house project, we can help. We prefer to work locally because it allows us to respond quickly if you need us—whether that’s for an emergency like a frozen pipe in the middle of winter or a follow-up visit after your project is complete.
We’re not a contractor who takes jobs all over the state and spreads ourselves thin. We stay focused on Long Island because that’s where we live, where we’ve built our reputation, and where we want to keep doing business for the next 40 years.
