He also gave amazing input while I was deciding on a color. He his passionate about his work and it shows in the quality of the finished product. So happy! **Comment from Greg Vabre:** > Thanks Gabriela Rose! I enjoyed painting your Havana room. Like in your artwork and fashion designs, your attention and overall experience of work at hand is really nice to be a part of :) **★★★★★ — Carol Wilkinson, Aug. 2020** > I can strongly recommend Greg for your home projects. He built a custom desk for me to fit into a corner of my living room. He did a wonderful design job so that the desk was unobtrusive and elegant at the same time. He has appreciation for his materials and has attention to details in finishing. He listened to what I needed, was flexible and his suggestions reflected an understanding of the my needs as well as enhancing my vision. He is reliable. I recommend him to help you realize your apartment's potential. **Comment from Greg Vabre:** > What I most enjoyed about this project was the discussion. Our teamwork appears to mirror the one between the desk, breakfast-cart, and box-shelf as they sit, roll, and hang next to one-another in the corner of your living-room. THANK YOU FOR THAT CAROL! **★★★★★ — Linda Fentiman, Aug. 2020** > I highly recommend Greg Vabre, who updated our pre-war coop. He reconstructed two rooms, refinished the floors, installed new lighting fixtures, and repainted every room. Greg did excellent work and was a delight to work with – he had a good aesthetic sense, gave accurate and realistic time estimates, and paid careful attention to details. His prices were reasonable. We were extremely pleased with the results. Our apartment looks bigger and brighter, more modern, and the space is much more livable and great for entertaining. **Comment from Greg Vabre:** > Thank you Linda for making your renovation so collaborative, enjoyable, and really setting us all up for success. I have fond memories of your project and time spent with you, Arthur, and Mark. Continued happiness in your lovely home. **★★★★★ — Sonia Manzano, July 2020** > I've know Greg for many years. He is reliable and professional. He has painted our apartment, renovated our bathroom and built some cabinetry. Greg has an artistic flair for design and even shopped for fixtures needed. His has a wonderful sense of color. I'd hire him in a minute! **Comment from Greg Vabre:** > Thinking back at your projects (all of them) and thankful for the trust that anchored every room, each nail, brush, and fixture. And can’t forget that morning we brought in a new custom radiator-cover, painted, and installed the blinds in your 2nd bedroom. You shared with me about a hand-painted cabinet, your dream from the night before. Now,,,that has made ALL the difference coming from you. THANK YOU SONIA **★★★★★ — WILLIAM TYLER, July 2020** > Greg VABRE Co. was contracted for my condo renovation. It included floor replacement and door removal, wall restructure and bathroom upgrades and tub glazing. I was impressed with the expertise and care in performing the various upgraded to my home. The pricing was fair and accurate and I was extremely pleased with the overall results. Visitors always ask me who did the work! I will certainly contract Greg VABRE Co. for future work I will have done this year. **Comment from Greg Vabre:** > Thank you William & Andrew. It’s a real treat to work for the both of you. Looking forward to seeing our next project **★★★★★ — Gail Horton, July 2020** > Mr. Vabre’s first job with me was in 2006 when he and his crew repainted my entire apartment. I gave him a set of keys to my apartment then and have never taken them back as he has done at least 6 more jobs for me. His knowledge and professionalism are of the > highest quality and his work impeccable. I recommend him without > reservation. **Comment from Greg Vabre:** > GAIL ,,, from our first meeting and initial project, you’ve made working for you a joyful celebration.
