I have worked with a great contractor. they are based in Brooklyn, NY, and again are a little on the pricey side, but are very customer orientated, and have done out loft renovation. They are Progressive General Contracting & Construction. You would have to speak with Al who is very astute, and quiet. he listens what you have to say, pays attention to detail, and addresses all your needs and questions. Their schedule, pricing, and rep is awesome. I couldn't have had a better experience. Try gving them a call 718-408-0812. Johnny on Mar 1, 2007
Tom,
you as a client get to choose the contractor. The architect usually draw bids from 3-4 GCs (you can insist on having 9J included in the list at that time) and then you make the choice based on price,reputation ,schedule ... We are currently doing a loft renovation in Chelsea and are thinking about hiring 9J also. Our architect is Steve Schappacher from SchappacherWhite and I have nothing but praise for his work. He is very dedicated and spend a lot of time addressing his customer concerns. If you are combining two apartments you will get a lot of issues related to building code, electrical, plumbing... Having an architect will be money well spent. Flojo on Dec 13, 2006
