Versatile Renovations

We were doing a remodel of a modest apartment and needed someone who would manage effectively without us being on site. We solicited bids from five contractors. Johnatan’s bid was competitive and comprehensive, and we feel that he provided great value at reasonable cost. We specified the appliances, cabinets, countertops and fixtures ourselves. Johnatan was very helpful in providing guidance when necessary and he delivered well on our design intent. The communication with Johnatan was excellent in managing our expectations and understanding of costs. The quality of the work was excellent. We found out a couple weeks into the work that all the wiring and some of the plumbing needed to be replaced, and Johnatan brought in good subs who completed the work with minimal impact to schedule. We are very happy with the workmanship; they had great attention to detail. We had an aggressive schedule which extended due to holidays and a delay in cabinet delivery. We had to move in before construction was completed, but the crews were great about keeping us updated, and kept the apartment clean and livable. One other really great thing about the team - we were new to the building and nervous about the impact of the construction. Johnatan’s foreman was wonderful about communicating with neighbors and the super and helped us get off to a great start with the building. We highly recommend Johnatan’s firm. He was responsive, thoughtful, had a good contract, and did great quality work.

Johnatan Cardona and his crew transformed two dreary, cramped bathrooms into a cheerful, bright bath for the children and an elegant, sleek bathroom for me. Johnatan had creative ideas for how to deal with some of the quirky aspects of renovating a 120-year-old house. I would definitely hire them again.

My wife and I live in a 10 unit coop in Brooklyn and have had renovation and remodeling done there on a number of occasions, as we have upgraded our two bathrooms as well as having general remodeling work done. We have used the services of Versatile Renovations for most of this and have always been very satisfied. We have also recommended this company to the coop and to specific neighbors there and their work has always been very consistently, very good. The people we have worked with on this have been courteous and professional. They really listen and they are careful in all that they do. They do not leave a mess behind as some contractors do. And they show up and work when they are scheduled to. The date and costs that I list only represent one of the jobs we have hired them for.

Johnatan was amazing to work with. He set true budgets, gave very good advice, and did excellent work. Every detail was perfect. His team spent a ton of time figuring out where the cable wire went through and how the corner cabinets fit it - all the little stuff that makes the renovation lovely. We then had a major (completely unrelated) flood during the time of our renovation, and Johnatan went out of his way to save our home and our children's things. He then re-built our home more beautifully than we could have imagined.
