Apt Reno: Rafiq, R.K. Constr.

Hi all - I have interviewed many contractors for a large reno project, and I am leaning towards Rafiq of R.K. Construction Co. Has anyone hired him before? If so, what was your experience?? Thanks for sharing - B

Hi Brybrybry,

Just read your post and although have not heard of the contractor you are going to use, but wanted to mention that I just renovated my one bedroom apartment and used J Thomas Construction. They are based in Brooklyn and I can't say enough great things about them. They were honest, fast, reliable and gave the best customer service along the way.

The owner is JT Stewart (917) 699 - 3810. Browse their site too www.jthomasnyc.com to get an idea of the quality. I highly recommend these guys.

Hi Bryan,

I saw your post regarding your renovation project. If you haven't already made a definite decision on a contractor I can also provide you with a detailed itemized estimate for your project.

Don't use Don Perrone. His company did a bathroom renovation mid-January which he said would take 6-8 days to finish. 2 months later and I'm still waiting for his plumber Doug to come replace the shower body that he broke. I call and text and email and they either don't return my calls or they don't show up when they say they're coming or they keep saying tomorrow, tomorrow. Not to mention, Doug put in my new tub not knowing how to install the trip lever (which stops the drainage), and I wound up with a really cheap push drainer because the trip lever will not function unless he removes the tub. STAY AWAY from these guys.
