Mega Construction

My Park Slope brownstone needed the front stairs resurfaced and areas of the brownstone which had chipped off needed to be restored. The contractor who did brownstone work for me in the past was unreliable in showing up for the job and careless regarding onsite safety and supervision, I did not consider rehiring him and did an extensive search through many reviews of contractors and interviewed at least 6 contractors. By far the overall best reviews were those of Mega Construction. The price quoted for the job was reasonable in that it was neither the highest nor the lowest bid. Nazim, the owner of the company has some difficulty with English and it was necessary, after discussing the scope of the work, to give him specific examples of what i wanted included in contracts for the work. In this, as in every part of the work process, he was agreeable and easy to work with. We are in a landmarked area and he took care of obtaining the landmark permits. His crew, who largely did not speak English well, were courteous and conscientious in attempting to keep the worksite neat and relatively passable for tenants living in the building who needed to walk over wet concrete and wet brownstone cement. I suppose I expected them to build a wooden staircase over the wet cement. However in thinking about it, I realized that would have added considerable cost to the job. Instead of covering the stairs, pieces of wood were placed over the stairs and the tenants walked on the pieces of wood placed on the wet cement. Remarkably, this worked well and was free of problems. While they worked of the front stairs and the ornamental areas where brownstone had chipped off, a painter working in the top floor apartment advised me of leaks to the top floor ceiling. I asked Nazim for an estimate to resurface the roof. Again, the estimate was reasonable and as he was onsite so I had him do that as well. And then...a long ignored problem of chipped concrete flooring in the cellar and much needed Thoroseal paint on walls. I hired them to do that and they did a fine job there as well! In all, as I was pleased with their work as they proceeded through a job, I hired them for further work. The finished work is highly professional. Needless to say, there was some disruption to myself and my tenants while the work was being done. However, Nazim was largely onsite throughout the work and saw to it that the work was completed in a timely fashion and disruptions were minimized and even more important, he supervised his workers and maintained worksite safety. I recommend him without reservation for all of the types of masonry, roofing, and carpentry he performed on my brownstone.

We hired Nazim to fix and repaint the facade of our brick house . We had to add a scaffolding to our project as the cornice was not safe for the workers to work, Nazim helped quickly with this unexpected hurdle and we were back on the right track - along the way we asked for a few modifications and Nazim was always present when needed and came with great options He remains very calm and is extremely helpful - his pricing is totally fair and the quality of his work is excellent We are continuously congratulated on our beautiful facade and are so happy we selected Nazim for our project The cornice looks outstanding too , I didn’t think it’ll look so nice and sturdy We highly recommend Nazim For this type of work and are planning on rehiring his fantastic crew this winter for some interior work we need to get done - a real pro - such a change, in Nyc so many contractors cannot be trusted or are taking advantage of the smallest issue as a way to overcharge the job . Nazim Is not like that - His team is extremely pleasant and polite and answered all our needs very graciously

First time homeowner and you find shingles on your driveway after a bad rain storm?! What do I do first? Panic! After meeting with overpriced, seemingly uninterested contractors, I contacted Mega Construction and set up a meeting. Luis, the owner himself, meet with me, climbed up on the roof, and made a professional assessment. Yup, my roof was not only outdated, but falling apart. Luis then had his main man Alex hold my hand and walk me through the entire process. Alex took care of the insurance, adjuster, and my anxiety. Two weeks out and the TEAM showed up just as the light shown through the clouds and did the work in one day. I don't have enough words to explain my relief and how grateful I am to Luis, Alex and the Team for working with me and making this a quick and easy process. They are professional, reliable, and customer service is outstanding. I definitely recommend Mega Construction and will use them again in the future. Thank you to Luis, Alex and the Tram for making it happen. I am so happy with my new roof.

I'd like to recommend Mega Construction after the excellent job they did on the exterior and interior of our small Brownstone co-op. Nazim gave us an excellent price and went above and beyond the scope of the job. His crew was professional, punctual, cleaned up at the end of the day, and worked smart. Nazim was a hands-on manager, showing up every day to ensure his crew was staying on task. Don't be thrown off by Nazim's soft-spoken demeanor--he's a seasoned professional who knows exactly how to get the job done. Most contractors won't give our small co-op the time of day for job bids. Nazim was an excellent fit for the scope of work we required.Work done in our 4-story co-op: Interior hallway painting, re-plastering, installed ceramic tile on ground floor, painted & waterproof back of building, scraped and re-painted fire escape on back of building, fixed crack in apartment wall, re-tiled entryway, restored & painted wood cornice on top of brownstone.

At first this company was very responsive. Probably to get our business. After 2 weeks of demolishing the bathroom and bedroom they stopped showing up to work. We were told the project would take 3 to 4 weeks but in actuality it took 4 months.. with constant lying from them that it would be done the next week. The homeowners were told that the fixtures bathtub, sinks, faucets for shower, sinks and tub were to be provided by us. All these fixtures were purchased before the floor tiles were finished hoping the would get the hint we needed this work done promptly. The tub was inspected by both the homeowner and the plumber to determine the exact location of the tub and it was in perfect condition. Those items sat in the middle of construction for months. With constant phone call and more lies from the contractor. After our constant pushing to get the tub installed the contractor called and told us that the tub was cracked and we would have to purchase another one. At this point we had moved out of our home so there was no one there but the construction workers. The contractor refused to take responsibility for the damage and had the tub reglazed. Then it took several more weeks to have the tub installed. We are very unhappy with this company and if we had known that it would take 4 months to finish our projects we would have put a contingency clause in the contract. Please be very careful if you consider this company to do any work for you. They are very unprofessional and will never be truthful.
