Englewood Cliffs sits on top of the Palisades with corporate campuses along Sylvan Avenue (Route 9W), the Palisades Interstate Parkway on its east edge, and the George Washington Bridge a few minutes south. The homes are mostly big ranches, splits and colonials from the 50s and 60s, with plenty of them rebuilt larger. We do the rebuilds and the repairs.

Whole-house renovations are common here: a 1960s ranch opened up, a second floor added, new roof, new siding, new windows, new mechanicals. We run all of it under one contract with trades on our own crew — no waiting on someone else's plumber.
Wind off the river is rough on roofs and flashing up here. If you've got a stain on a ceiling, call before it's a collapse. We tarp same-day, document it for insurance, and put the permanent fix in writing.
Emergencies first: burst or frozen pipes, a roof leaking in a storm, sewage backing up, no heat. Call, a person picks up, tells you what to shut off, and sends a crew — in Bergen County that's often within the hour. Planned jobs in Englewood Cliffs get a same-day or next-day consultation, with the price in writing before we leave.
Every town has its own forms and its own inspectors. We handle Englewood Cliffs's. Permit applications, plan sketches, inspection appointments — all on us, all inside your fixed price. If a job doesn't need a permit, we'll tell you that too, instead of charging you for one.
Most contractors don't do the work. They hire people you never met, and when something goes wrong they all point at each other. We work the other way: general contracting, plumbing, roofing, electrical and heating and AC are all on our own crew.
One name on the contract. One foreman on site. One phone number that rings the owner. That's how we can promise the price and the day it's done.
“The estimate was a number on a napkin. The invoice was a novel.”
“Dust in every room of the house. Even the baby's room.”
“The kitchen guy blamed the plumber. The plumber blamed the electrician. I paid all three.”
Yes. Whole-floor and whole-house renovations, additions and outdoor living are run by one project lead with plumbers, electricians and carpenters on our own crew — one contract, one schedule, daily photo updates.
Anything we install that carries water — showers, tubs, pipes, roofs, water heaters, sump pumps. If it leaks, cracks or fails within five years, we fix it and the damage it caused.
Yes. We tarp the roof or board up the same day, photograph and document everything, and write a line-item scope your adjuster can work with. Then one crew does the permanent repair or rebuild.
No. You pay as work gets done. That keeps us honest: we don't get paid for a week we didn't show up.
