Northvale is the last stop in the Northern Valley before New York: a small borough with light industry along the old rail line and quiet streets of post-war colonials, capes and splits, with Norwood, Old Tappan and Rockleigh next door. Small town, full-size houses, full-size to-do lists. We handle all of it from our Paramus shop.

Sixty-year-old houses need the big three — roof, kitchen, master bath — plus the mechanicals nobody thinks about until they fail: the boiler, the water heater, the panel. We do it together or one job at a time, always with the price itemized in writing.
Adding space? Dormers, rear additions and finished basements, with permits pulled by us and inspections met. Something broke? A real person answers 24/7, and in Bergen County we're usually there within the hour.
We're based in Paramus. That's why we can promise Northvale what the national brands can't: a live person on the phone around the clock, same-day dispatch on emergencies — often within the hour anywhere in Bergen County — and a free in-home visit today or tomorrow for anything planned. Nobody tells you "we'll call you back in 48 hours."
We pull permits in Bergen County towns every month, and Northvale is no exception. We file the paperwork, build to code, and book the rough and final inspections so the job is signed off properly. That protects you when you sell the house, and it's included in the price you sign.
“The big-brand quote had a "manager's discount" that expired at midnight.”
“The "lifetime warranty" was on the shingles, not on the guy who nailed them wrong.”
“Don't worry about the permit," he said. Then the town made us rip it out.”
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.
We come to your Northvale home, measure, inspect and write an itemized price on the spot, with an expected timeline. Same-day and next-day appointments — call before noon and we're often there today. No obligation, no deposit.
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. If the job needs one — moved plumbing or wiring, structural work, an addition, a deck — we file it with the Northvale building department, schedule the inspections and meet the inspector. It's inside your fixed price, not an extra.
Yes. We're based in Paramus in Bergen County and our own crews cover Northvale 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.
