Glass Wall Manufacturers


Hi Brownstoners. We will soon have a large opening in the back of our house where we plan on installing a glass wall in place of the current wood frame. I’m in search of recommendations for local window manufacturers who can fabricate a roughly 10×9′ “glass wall” based on our plans. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance…

Sprinkler Flow Test


My insurance company needs proof that my sprinkler system is working properly. I’m assuming I need a plumber to come out and test it? Can anyone recommend someone inexpensive that is capable of doing this. Thanks!

Construction Debris Removal Question


Hi,

Does anyone know of a local place to dump demolition debris? I have way too much material to slowly feed to the dept. of sanitation and I’d like to avoid the cost of renting a dumpster or hiring a waste removal company.

Thanks in advance!

Happy Holidays!

General Contractor Recommendation


Hi Brownstoners,

I recently undertook a 4 family Crown Heights renovation project with a contractor that I found here on the forum. We got off to a relatively good start but things took a turn for the worse and I had to let him go today (more on that later).

In an attempt to find a replacement, I’ve searched the archives and set up appointments with the following Brownstoner recommended contractors: Gaudioso Contracting, Jabez Home Improvement and Lino’s Home Improvement.

Has anyone had any good experiences with contractors that I have not already considered?

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!
