Scott's craftsmanship is excellent. The closet looks like it was always there, and he took the time to ensure we had beautiful doors that matched the other doors in the hallway. The other projects were all well executed and look great. Scott and his team get the work done quickly. Price is reasonable given the quality you're getting from Scott. I would absolutely use Scott again.
Description of Work: Scott completed a number of jobs for us in our new house. The most substantial was the construction of a closet. He also added shelving and bars to existing closets, painted, installed new and realigned existing doors, and did a number of smaller projects, including patching holes and installing saddles between the wood floor and kitchen tile.

Excellent service and workmanship. Project finished on-time and on-budget. Extremely happy with everything about this contractor and his team. Mr. Tobia is a perfectionist and his work is top-shelf. The team worked hard everyday and cleaned up every night. Mr. Tobia communicated daily and explained exactly what he was doing and what would come next. The project took about a month and we saw real progress every day. Mr. Tobia was a complete pleasure to deal with. He was very hard working and dedicated to the project. He is an exceptionally skilled craftsman.

When Scott came to the job, he was able to access it and envision what we were wanted to do. He made suggestions and really worked with us to achieve our goals. Scott is a good listener and is able to translate the customer's requests into a reality. He put us in touch with great vendors who also worked seamlessly with us. Scott and his staff are timely and hard-working and they had the job finished on time. The bathroom came out beyond our expectations and today is one of our favorite rooms in the house.
Description of Work: Gutted and totally renovated a bathroom.

As of today, our project is about six weeks from completion. We have been going for over 3 1/2 months at this point. This is the first major construction project I have lived through, so I really didn't know what to expect relative to a contractor. After hearing many horror stories and watching many movies with awful contractors, I'm so glad we found Scott. He came highly recommended by our architect. He and his crew are very neat (which was incredibly important because we lived there through most of construction with young children), friendly to us and our neighbors (which helps keep the peace when things are looking messy!), and observe all local laws about noise in the mornings and on the weekends. Both the quality of the materials used and work completed is excellent. At every stage of construction, everyone who has come by to see it has commented on the high quality. Scott and his crew gave great advice on selecting materials (e.g. flooring), improving the project (e.g. making our new fireplace work aesthetically and with our plans for the room), and when to purchase things so we didn't have too many extra things laying around the house. They also problem-solved with us when things did not turn out as we expected. For example, when our stairs were installed we had less room than we thought in our new mudroom. But, we were able to talk through the differences to come up with a very workable solution. When it was necessary to subcontract specific portions of the work, all of the subcontractors followed Scott's example with a high quality of work, neatness and professionalism. He has relationships with many different subcontractors, as well as suppliers, and we have had zero issues with anyone we've encountered at Scott's recommendation throughout this process. There have been multiple issues with the building department in town throughout our project. Scott has kept us up with the specific issues and the delays they caused. There have been delays for other reasons, but for the most part Scott has been able to keep us up to date on what has been going on. Scott has been on target with describing the length of the project, how it will happen, and what obstacles we might encounter along the way, which has been a tremendous help in keeping my sanity throughout the process. One thing that came up that proved problematic was that a ceiling had to be taken down in one room to add lighting. We were not expecting this, and based on its location and utility during the project we had to move out of the house for a portion of the work. While we weren't thrilled, the explanation that came about WHY it needed to be done (and why it was not initially anticipated) were enough to make us feel comfortable with the inconvenience. I would highly recommend Scott and his crew for any construction project. We've recommended him to others, and thus far the feedback has all been similar to what was described above.
Description of Work: Add an addition (including crawlspace), elevate an existing crawlspace to make the floor above level with the rest of the house, add a deck, remodel existing kitchen, replace windows in existing room.

I searched for a long time on Google and Angies List before making the decision to have Scott Tobia Construction perform the renovation. I could not be happier with the job that they did and the way my apartment looks now. They showed up every day when they said they would and finished the Job before the completion date estimate that they gave me at the beginning. Scott is a great listener and helped talk me through some ideas that he has used in other apartments like mine to make them more efficient. He installed some new lighting and fans as well and made very good use of the room I have. In New York every bit of space counts! I would recommend Scott Tobia Construction to anyone who wants a high quality Job done at an affordable price.
Description of Work: I hired Scott Tobia Construction to remodel the interior of my apartment in SoHo. They created floor plan outlines and provided multiple options that we tweaked until I had a design that I loved. Scott was overseeing the project from start to finish including new floors, a sliding door, crown molding, and a lot of electrical work to make the apartment more tech friendly.

Scott and team are truly professionals. They are punctual, efficient, and very hard working. Scott asked my wife and I what we wanted, and worked with us to accomplish those goals (and within budget). It was a pleasure working with someone so trustworthy, as finding a reliable contractor is stressful when there is a newborn baby involved. Thanks for the great experience!
Description of Work: Scott completed a major addition/renovation of my family's home. He built a brand new front entrance room and a new bedroom for our newborn child. He also completely updated our kitchen and living room. I have been getting compliments on our new home every single time someone walks in, it is truly beautiful. My favorite aspect is the abundance of light throughout our home due to the new layout of the windows and rooms themselves.
