Talk about a transformation - this one is definitely miraculous!Clients of mine from New York City, inherited the family home after the husband's father passed away.  The house is the same one that my client grew up in,  and let me tell you, he was definitely attached.  His dad, who passed away at 96, lived alone in the house for many years after his wife died, and the house was completely neglected.  My client urged his father to let him do some routine maintenance but his dad resisted at every turn.  I had done a renovation for these clients several years ago, and they love their Hudson Heights pre-war co-op. They called and asked if I would help get this family house ready for the market. I visited the house and was horrified by the turmoil and the mess and it was very difficult to s...

A few months ago, we helped a seller by adding carpet to her basement in Westchester .  She was happy with our work and called us a few months later.   Yes, she had sold the house, and much faster than she anticipated.  Not only that, but she found a new home in White Plains and she wanted our help to recarpet her new place.  Sweet.  I love it when that happens.   After I gave her the estimate, she mentioned that she was going to be giving my information (and the other contractors she used) to the new buyer of her original house.  I was so honored.  I knew they would need to do some work in there, especially with sanding and refinishing the floors.  Sure enough, we got a call on Monday from the new buyer.  It was fun to revisit the house - both to see how much it had improved since my o...

I love it when it’s a double win.  Yesterday, I met w/ a really nice customer moving from NYC to Hartsdale.  I believe they initially found us on Angie’s list (and read our reviews) and then they went to our website which they loved.  They need to refinish their hardwood floors in Hartsdale.  Nice family and I’m looking forward to working with them on this job, and hopefully future projects over the years.   I got there a few minutes early, and their real estate agent met me, and she let me in.  She asked me a few questions and then mentioned that she might call me in the future as she needs to sand and refinish her own floors.  That itself is cool, but even cooler is that if she’s happy she may recommend me to her clients in the future.   She told me the hardwood company her brokerage ...

Many of my customers get confused about engineered hardwood flooring vs. laminate flooring. Which is real? Which is fake? What is the difference?   First, laminate is fake. It usually looks like hardwood (and occasionally tile) but it's not real. It's a picture of hardwood covered by a melamine wear layer and on top of a high density core board. The pieces click together and lock into place to create a floating floor. Laminate has really come a long way and looks rather real; but, when you walk on it, you can often tell by the clicking noisy/tinny sound that it's fake.   Engineered hardwood, sounds fake, but it's NOT. It's hardwood through and through, but it's constructed in layers (similar to plywood). It's a terrible term because a lot of customers mistakenly interpret engineered har...

Tile flooring can be stylish and practical for your home in Hartsdale NY 10530.  A week ago, I had the pleasure of revisiting one of my customer's homes in Hartsdale NY.  This is the 2nd job that he does with us after his timborana hardwood floors (which still look stunning). He has been redoing his entire kitchen...taking that bland dated galley kitchen with vinyl floors and laminate cabinets to sleek and stylish.  It's quite amazing to see the transformation.  (I should have taken a "before" picture.) He had chosen maple cabinets with a warm stain - a mid-toned brown with dherry undertones.  They are quite striking.  I found some really chic tiles for him - they have a metallic look (and he wanted some gray (since that color was in the silestone he chose), but he also wanted them to b...

As background, let's just say I'm tired, cranky and overworked and it's not a nice day out which is making me even more tired.  I just about ran out of coffee, so I ran into a store near where I was - Morton Williams.  Well they have some fresh produce and all sorts of fancy foods which I love. So I decided to treat myself right so I can cheer myself up and make it through a couple of days of major catch up this Sat/Sun.  I went to the fancy deli section and saw in the freezer some fancy bon bons.  These aren't just any bon bons - they are Capuchino cheese cake bon bons...yum... Of course it was on the top shelf - too high to reach, so I asked the guy to help me.  They were $10 for the box, and he said a bit expensive, but worth it.  (I figured it was worth the splurge given that I real...
