Montvale houses: update, expand, protect
Colonials from the 60s and 70s here are getting new kitchens, master baths, finished basements and second-floor additions. We do all of it under one contract with our own plumbers, electricians and carpenters, so the schedule doesn't depend on someone else's sub.
Townhome owners: kitchens, baths and flooring with the association paperwork handled. Everyone: roofs, siding, windows, heating and AC, and a person on the phone 24/7 when something breaks.
Response times
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 Montvale get a same-day or next-day consultation, with the price in writing before we leave.
Permits in Montvale
If the work needs a permit — moved plumbing or wiring, structural changes, an addition, a new deck — we pull it from the Montvale building department, schedule the inspections and meet the inspector ourselves. It's part of your fixed price, not an extra. You never stand in line at town hall.
Small jobs welcome
A leaking valve. A rotted deck board. A door that won't latch. A bath fan that died. Most contractors won't pick up for that. We will — the same licensed crew that does the additions does the punch list.
Call, or text a photo of the problem to the same number. We'll tell you what it likely is, whether it can wait, and what it costs to fix.
What people hate about other companies — fixed here
The complaint
“They wanted the final check before the punch list was done. Then they vanished.”
Our fixThe Sign-Off Guarantee: you hold the final payment until we walk the finished job together, item by item, and you approve every one.
The complaint
“They said two weeks. It took two months, and nobody would tell us why.”
Our fixThe expected timeline goes in your contract, one dedicated crew stays on your job, and you get a photo update text every workday so you always know what happened and what's next.
Montvale questions, answered
Do you work in condos and co-ops in Montvale?
Yes. Board approvals, certificates of insurance, quiet hours, elevator bookings and protected hallways are routine for us. The wet work is done so the unit below never hears from you, and it's covered by our 5-Year Watertight Guarantee.
My Montvale house is old. Is that a problem?
It's most of what we do. Older houses have cast iron, galvanized pipe, tired wiring and layered roofs. We check all of it before we quote, so the replacements are line items you approve up front — never a mid-job surprise.
Can I just text you a photo?
Yes — same number. Send a picture of the leak, the crack or the stain and we'll tell you what it likely is and whether it can wait until morning. The written price comes after we see it in person.
Will the same crew be at my house every day?
Yes. One dedicated licensed crew and the same foreman from the first day to the last. We don't rent subcontractors, so nobody new shows up wondering what the plan is.
Is there a First Call crew near me in Montvale?
Yes. We're based in Paramus in Bergen County and our own crews cover Montvale 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.
