General Contractor reviews in Farmingdale, New York
-
Outstanding service! Fair prices for big loads! Rupa Trucking Corporation dumps here all the time. Ask for Joe or John, great guys.
-
I don’t know what they do but they were working down the street from my house. They dumped some machinery in front of my property and returned at the end of day to get it but left all the debris.
-
Was behind one of their drivers this morning on my way to work. On Nichols Road between Browns and Moriches at about 6:08am the driver THREW a Twisted Tea can out of the window!! Absolutely classless not only littering but also throwing an alcoholic drink…was he drinking and driving?! Who does this company employ.
-
This review is for the driver in the left lane of the highway(illegal). I had to follow 5miles constantly hitting his brakes on me even after traffic cleared up and nobody in front then trying not let me pass
-
Very impressed so far with this company. Extrermely responsive and willing to answer all of our queries. We will decide shortly if we will decide to choose this company to design, manage and build our 2 floor house extension.

I work with Center Island Contracting for many of my Interior Design projects , they are always knowledgeable, professional and the quality of their work is a step above everyone else.. I know my projects are in excellent hands whenever I work with them.. I highly recommend Center Island Contracting .. The Reilly Design Group

CIC does fantastic work. They should be your first call if you’re looking for quality high-end construction and finishing. Their online showroom speaks volumes on what they can do.

Caleb and his team were amazing! We used them for my parents home and couldn’t be happier with the work that was performed. We look forward to using them for our next project! Thanks again.

CIC team was a great pleasure to work with. Caleb, Mike, Myro and crew on site and office did a great job on my project and are highly recomended

By far the most unprofessional, rude & unreliable company I have ever dealt with. I was told by Evan he would have an estimate for a commercial job I needed done in 3 days. I immediately emailed him the architect’s plans. After I week I called him and he rudely, discourteously, and unprofessionally told me to stop calling him and that he would call me with estimate. Now it is over two weeks and I have not heard a word from Evan. If you want the worst customer service you have ever experienced than give this miserable company a try. If I could have given zero stars I would have.
-
Caleb and the guys are very professional, polite and on point. They will help you thoroughly through your build with ideas, suggestions and ways to cut costs without losing quality. They completed my entire basement and I would use them again. Thanks again guys for making my dream basement come true.

Prompt friendly service. Start to finish- No hassle or issues. Very professional. 100% satisfaction. All my questions for my new wood floors were answered quickly and the work was finished beautifully. My new go to for home improvements in New York!
-
Very pleased with my new bathroom and wooden floor in the bedroom. Makes a total new look for the space. Caleb, Evan, Mike and both Nicole's were all very helpful in pulling it all together. Thanks I totally love it.
-
We were very happy with our kitchen renovation and appreciative of Caleb, the owner, for being extremely responsive when some problems did arrive. So appreciative, in fact, that we decided to use them again several months later for a basement remodel. Thanks!

Writing this on behalf of my MIL. “Very impressed with attention to detail and quality of work. Everything went smoothly and efficient. All the hired subcontractor were reliable and trustworthy. I am even impressed over time when compare my renovation experience to other renovations in see locally. I feel like I made the right choice.”
-
Center Island Contracting has done multiple projects for me over the years, roof, gutters, windows, interiors. The work has always been top quality, and completely professional. The organization is easy to work with, and I will continue to partner with them in the future!

I want to start this review by saying that I would never negatively review a company unless there was very good reason. My family and I have been taken advantage of, lied to, and disappointed in more ways than I can explain and I am writing this review to hopefully provide some insight for any future families looking for a contracting company.
Last year we signed on with Caleb and his Center Island Contracting team to do the build on our 1200 sq. ft. extension to make room for our soon to be growing family. Unfortunately, this very exciting project turned into a very stressful situation quickly. To start, the job began weeks later than promised and it was very difficult receiving a straight answer regarding a definitive start date. If a contractor won't give a time frame (not even a specific date, just a rough estimate) in writing it should raise concern, and I stayed blind to it. Also, be very careful as to how much money you pay for each phase of work relative to the amount of job progress that has been completed. We were blindsided by this as well.
Before signing on with Center Island I had read a few negative reviews on the usual homeowner research sites. I had noticed that each negative review was followed by the company denying that they had completed work on the reviewer’s home. Again, this should have raised a red flag and I am embarrassed to say that I wasn’t more thoughtful about what I was reading. After having dealt with this company for the past year, the arrogance in the denial of working for the reviewers has become all too familiar. Caleb and his Project Manager Orlando take zero responsibility for their mistakes and their lack of respect for their customers is very disturbing.
This whole process was a nightmare. The entire job was poorly planned and the sub-contractors were not supervised properly. We were told our home would be habitable throughout the duration of the project; however we were forced to find another residence for 2 full months to avoid the dust and debris left behind. No preventative measures were in place. There were no zip walls or tarps to prevent dust and damage to the rooms in our current home. Respect for our home was not a priority. Respect for our family was not a priority.
As we stand today, about a year from our first contact, over 8 months from the scheduled start date, and almost 4 months past the max total time frame told to us during the interviewing process I was presented with a "Settlement Agreement.” The agreement stated that they will not come back to complete the final items in their contract until this agreement is signed. This is where I had enough of their games and arrogance. The agreement stated that I would have to wave any and all future claims and reviews about Center Island Contracting. Having to ask your client to sign a waiver like this says an awful lot about their company and confidence in customer relationships. I chose to not sign the waiver and as a result they chose to remove themselves from the permits leaving the remainder of the work incomplete.
I leave this review as a warning to the next family that is looking to take on a project on any scale with Center Island Contracting. -
Center Island did an amazing job renovating my home and staying on schedule up until completion. The final project is beautiful and my family loves the new bedroom and bathroom!

Project type: Addition
First time doing something that big to the house, don't very know what I get myself into, but lucky we found CIC.
Overall the whole process was smooth and they competed everything we wanted/asked for. There are some minor hiccup here there during the built but they handle it well and address any problem professionally. Have no communicate problem, always respond our calls and questions even during holiday. Huge thank to CIC.
