My husband and I hired MyHome
to design and renovate two
bathrooms in an apartment that we recently purchased in Manhattan.
We also had them paint the entire apartment, refinish the hardwood
floors and install several lighting fixtures and ceiling fans.
We interviewed several contractors, and we were most impressed with
MyHome due
to their responsiveness, skill and experience. We could not be more
pleased with the work that MyHome
did under the direction of Inna Smertenko and Jesse Rabinowitz.
Jesse, Inna and their team worked professionally and diligently
to complete the project within our extremely stringent deadline.
Most importantly, the end result of the work is a stunning, transformed
apartment.
Our initial contacts with MyHome
were primarily handled by Inna, our MyHome
project designer. Inna was always quick to return our calls and
emails, and handled our many questions like a seasoned professional.
Inna also took the initial measurements, helped us evaluate the
bathrooms,
and assisted us with designing spaces that would be within our budget
and reflect our tastes. We met with Inna several times to choose
materials, and she was always very helpful in guiding us to items
that fit our parameters. She also went above and beyond the call
of duty, searching for substitute materials when something we wanted
was not available and pushing vendors to deliver goods within our
very tight time schedule. Inna is a highly talented designer and
a wonderful advocate for her customers.
Once the design and material selection were complete, Jesse stepped
in to oversee the work at the apartment. Under his watchful eye,
the workers and subcontractors kept to a strict schedule. Despite
a few unexpected bumps in the road, Jesse kept a level head at all
times, and kept the job on schedule while refusing to sacrifice
the quality of the work. He kept us in the loop at all times, holding
regular meetings with us and frequently updating us via email and
telephone on the progress of the demolition and construction. He
was also sensitive to our many concerns about the process (being
both first-time homeowners and first-time renovators!). When Jesse
anticipated or noticed any type of problem, he dealt with it swiftly
and ably. Further, he quickly responded to our concern about moving
in just after the construction by sending a cleaning service to
scrub the entire apartment up and down just prior to our move, free
of charge. Although a few details had to be finished up after our
move, thanks to Jesse we got settled in our new home with functional
bathrooms, which had been completed in less than one month!
The end product of MyHome's
work speaks for itself. Our apartment is utterly transformed from
what it was before their work. The
paint job, the refinished floors and the bathrooms have made
our new apartment into a warm and welcoming home. We are so appreciative
of Inna and Jesse's hard work. Our investment will surely pay off
in the future as well.I would highly recommend MyHome,
and particularly Inna and Jesse, to anyone and everyone. Indeed,
my husband and I plan to call them again in a year, when we will
be renovating our kitchen!
