"UPDATE- after some time has passed I had several tiles come loose. They repaired 5 or 6 of them over several visits but after 2 cancellations (And 1 cancellation of my own) I still have at least 2 loose tiles and many that sound hollow underneath. The frustrating part is that before the job started, I asked if the floor needed to be leveled and was told no. I had them back a 2nd time before starting the project and asked them to double check if the floor needed to be leveled and they said no again. Clearly it did. ----------------------------------------------------------- I used RHP for a tile floor in my basement. The price and time estimate Mike gave me on the first day were precise and the work is great. Mike himself was on the job every day.i would recommend them and would use them again."

"I called yesterday and they did the work early today. When I called, the woman who arranged the appointment was pleasant and helpful. The workers who came were friendly and careful when removing the items. I did one other cost-estimate comparison and the price for this service seemed very fair! I would definitely hire them again because the whole process was very quick and easy!"

"This crew is amazing!  My uncle needed to have a tree removed from our
backyard... I'm talking HUGE with many of the biggest limbs leaning over
our neighbors house.  He came over right away and gave a reasonably
priced quote.  I discussed it with my uncle and decided to go ahead and
use his services.  He removed this tree in two days, even with it being
some of the hottest days its been in a while!  His whole crew was
extremely kind and they made sure to clean up very carefully after they
were done. They even took a look at my broken car when they
noticed me filling my radiator with water!  We were thrilled with the
services this crew gave us and would recommend them to anyone.

"They were excellent. They were very professional and did a meticulous job. They were very neat. They were able to answer questions. They answer their phones. They do not have annoying machines and you have to leave messages that kind of thing. So, that was nice. You get a live person when you call the company. Overall, we just absolutely love them. They did a really nice job."

This was a huge stress for me because of a huge budget and my wife was expecting our first child. I researched construction companies for months and attended two home improvement shows at my local college before getting bids from 3 or 4 companies. The ones I decide were all members with NARI. My contact person with Kenstruction was Gary Conrad. First impressions was that he was knowledgeable and professional. I used photos from remodeling magazines and my own sketches to show Gary what we wanted. About Two weeks later I had all the bids laid out of the table. We decided on Kentruction because of reference phone calls, photos of their work, NARI certifications and price. Their price wasn't the lowest, But it wasn't the highest. The price was reasonable for the job. 

Upon Signing with Kentruction, Gary went to work on permits and detailed plans. The framing was done my Kenstruction staff. The plumbing, electrical, drywall, insulation, tile, wood floors and foundation work was done by subcontractors. I only had quality issues with the drywall subcontractor and the foundation. I understand Kenstruction no longer uses those drywall subs. The foundation sub showed up at my front door with a bill for the concrete as the last truck was pouring. That bill should have went to Gary. Once I let Gary know he immediately took care of it. The foundation sub also tried to burry an old concrete rear patio stoop next to the new foundation, instead of removing it all together. The local building inspector caught it. Gary was informed and his crew broke up and removed the concrete patio before back filling.

Once the crew put the shell up, the rest went without a problem. Gary built a custom wood tub surround so it can be removed for future repair or service. Payment was done is stages as the project progressed. The company owner, Kent showed up at the site to see the work. When the remodel was done they even had someone clean the entire house.

In 2011, I notice one small vertical crack develop on each new concrete wall. I contacted Gary and he came out to look at it. He advised it's normal stress crack and not an issue. If it got any larger he would repair it. I researched it and stress cracks are normal and not a problem. The cracks don't appear to have grown.

Now its 2014, and all the work is holding up well. All I had to is replace the new bath exhaust fan. Any future project, Kenstruction will be on my bid list.


 **** UPDATE *****

July, 2014 I just had Kentstruction here for their 4HR remodel deal. They came over to put up a storage platform in the attic for storage. Gary came over and installed it himself. Looks good. Thanks.

FAQs for excavation major grading or resloping projects in Kew Gardens, NY

You can excavate in winter, but frozen soil slows down the process and increases labor costs. Many grading companies offer discounted rates during their off-season, so ask for a winter quote and weigh the savings against a longer timeline. A brief conversation with a local professional will help determine whether cold-weather excavation is suitable for your site.

Foundation digs can be completed in as little as three days or take up to three weeks. Soil density, access, weather, and hidden obstacles all play a role, so every timeline is a bit different. Have your contractor walk the site and flag any potential issues early—clear expectations help keep both the schedule and budget on track.

You must always call 811 before excavating. Dial 811 a few days in advance so that utility crews can mark underground lines and ensure the area is safe for digging. Hitting a buried cable or gas pipe can be both dangerous and expensive, and many municipalities will not issue permits unless the site is flagged correctly.

To remove soil during an excavation project, your crew will load the spoil into dump trucks with a backhoe or excavator, haul it to a disposal site, and return for the next load. Efficient hauling keeps the work zone clear and the project moving. Depending on the site and volume of osil, multiple trucks may rotate to maintain a steady flow.
