“Lasley Brahaney's crew did beautiful work on our new addition. They executed their tasks with skill and professionalism, handling all the details and keeping the stress level as low as possible. The workers were friendly, easy to talk to, and always willing to discuss any aspect of the project. Although our project was not a large one, the owner Marc took personal interest in making sure we were happy with all aspects of the work. We recommend Lasley Brahaney highly, and will definitely use them again if we have future construction projects.”

“Working with PK was great. He understands the customer's needs and is able to bring the vision to life in his blue prints. He is willing to give you ideas and also show you where you can save money. Although slightly pricy, the relationship PK offers with the customer is a great relief as they are available at all times for any questions or ideas! Definitely would recommend PK!”

“IDEAL CDR has helped us with several major projects in our home, including a deck, a kitchen upgrade, a family room upgrade with a gas fireplace and a shower repair. They are incredible--everyone is extremely professional, friendly and kind. And, most importantly, their work is absolutely top-notch. They are attentive to detail, timely and concerned about doing the best possible job and they hold their subcontractors to the same high level of performance. In addition, they are creative and have terrific suggestions as to how to improve upon basic ideas as to how projects can be carried out. We have received many, many compliments about our family room "makeover" and it is now the focal point of our home. I would heartily recommend working with IDEAL CDR--they are our "go to" contractors!”

“I hired Showcase to renovate and expand a newly purchased home in Glen RIdge, New Jersey. The project lasted over 15 months in duration and involved renovating the entire house and expanding the home from 2600 square feet (excluding the basement) to 4450 square feet (approximately 5950 square feet including the fully finished basement). The project included a new family room, gym, sauna, downstairs bath, master bedroom, office and master bath. The existing kitchen and three and half baths were demolished and redone. New trim, windows, doors and closets were also installed throughout the original structure. Finally, all the plumbing, heating and air conditioning and electrical systems were replaced. I have extensive experience working with contractors. At my previous home I undertook seven separate remodeling projects ranging from bath and kitchen renovations to the addition of a family room and master suite. I also built a 3000 square foot architectually designed second home in Wisconsin. SHOWCASE WAS BY FAR THE BEST CONTRACTOR I HAVE EVER WORKED WITH AND I WOULD RECOMMEND THEM WITHOUT HESITATION FOR ANY RESIDENTIAL PROJECT. Several things made our experience with Showcase so good: - its a one-stop shop. You get design and build services and they order all the materials. This is highly convienent and allows them to ensure product and service quality. - its a third generation family business. The owners are experienced, reliable and service oriented. They proactively made a number of suggestions which improved the final product. We still frequently call them if we have a question or issue and they are extremely responsive. In the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, for example, we had an issue with our natural gas powered back up generator and they showed up and got it fixed within hours of calling. - their construction crew and sub contractors are uniformly outstanding (as you would expect from a large established contractor). Given the project's size and duration we got to know all the key subs very well. The construction foreman, tile guy, plumber and electrician were especially good. They do extremely high quality work and also frequently offered up good suggestions for improvements. Proof of the quality of their work is the fact that we passed every single inspection the first time. - their designer, Haviva, is also very good. While we used our long time architect on the project, Haviva made a number of significant improvements to the original plan. - last, they are fair and reasonable. When issues or unexpected costs came up, we were quickly able to get to a solution that left everybody feeling ok.”

“We hired Nigel to build us a natural swimming hole in the forest next to our vacation home in the Poconos. He did a beautiful job down to the minutest detail! Everything was down so expertly and innovatively! He was a pleasure to deal with, his easy personality.... Looking forward to enjoy our natural swimming hole.”

“I have worked with the Aanensen team for over 30 years! As an Interior Designer I know what to expect from a Contractor! The Aanensen group has worked with me on various projects with my clients and in my own home. They are professionals always! Organized from the drawing board to the completion of the project...and years later always returning to service or improve! A third generation family business and long-time employees contributes to this superb Company!”

“My husband and I hired John to completely rebuild an old stone house. We chose him over two other builders not because he was the cheapest, but because the quality and workmanship he displayed were just what we were looking for. John oversaw the entire job, from demo to the finished trim, inside and out. The job entailed tearing the roof and second story, adding a sun room, and then completely rebuilding the house. It included a new second story, all new plumbing and electrical, new kitchen, new bathroom, everything. We wanted to rebuild the house even better than it had been, and that's what we did. We were extremely pleased with John's work and that of the sub-contractors with which he worked. John was on the site every day either overseeing the work, or doing it himself. He was always professional, enthusiastic, and up front about the costs and time the job would take. He gave us great ideas about finishing trim and even milled it himself. Our house is beautiful and well built. If we had to do it over again, we would hire John.”
