The complaint
“Dust in every room of the house. Even the baby's room.”
Our fixThe work area is sealed off, floors are protected, and the site is swept clean every single night. You should be able to sleep in your own house during a remodel.

Garfield two-families: keep them safe, dry and rented
Pre-war multi-families come with cast-iron stacks, galvanized water lines, fuse boxes, plaster walls and flat roofs that leak at the seams. We inspect before we quote so the old stuff becomes line items you approve — not a surprise on day three.
Landlords get per-unit pricing, fast turnovers and one crew for the whole building. Homeowners get the same crew for a kitchen, a bath, a roof or a boiler. Everyone gets a person on the phone 24/7 when a pipe lets go.
Response times
Garfield is inside our fastest zone. A real person answers 24/7, emergencies are dispatched right away — often within the hour in Bergen County — and planned work gets a same-day or next-day consultation with the price in writing.

What people hate about other companies — fixed here
The complaint
“The kitchen guy blamed the plumber. The plumber blamed the electrician. I paid all three.”
Our fixPlumbing, electrical, heating and carpentry are all on our own crew, under one contract. One name to call, and nobody to point fingers at.
The complaint
“The estimate was a number on a napkin. The invoice was a novel.”
Our fixYou get an itemized price in writing before we start — materials, labor, permits, cleanup, each on its own line — and it can't change without your signature on a written change order.
Garfield questions, answered
Do you work with landlords and two-family owners in Garfield?
Yes. Per-unit pricing, fast turnovers, separate kitchens and baths, and the small repairs tenants call about. One crew for the whole building and a written price before we start.
What is the No-Surprise Guarantee?
Three things, printed in your contract: your price is in writing and can't change without your approval; you know the scope and timeline before work begins, with a photo update every workday; and if there's a workmanship issue covered by your guarantee, we come back and make it right.
What does a kitchen or bathroom remodel cost in Garfield?
It depends on the size, the layout changes and what you pick. We come to your home, measure, inspect behind the walls and hand you an itemized price on the spot — typically 15–30% under national-brand quotes for the same or better spec.
Do you take small repair jobs in Garfield?
Yes. A leaking valve, a rotted step, a door that won't latch, a water heater that quit. No job is too small, and the punch list you've been putting off is welcome.
Is there a First Call crew near me in Garfield?
Yes. We're based in Paramus in Bergen County and our own crews cover Garfield every week — plumbers, electricians, HVAC techs, roofers and carpenters, no subcontractors. Emergencies go to the nearest crew, day or night. Call (201) 676-3099 and a real person answers.
