Babaj did a fantastic job installing “peel and stick” flooring in my NYC apartment bathroom. He was very responsive; easy and effective communication. Install was clean and seamless. He also helped with caulking my bathtub, and adjusted my dishwasher. I highly recommend his service, and am hiring him again for a paint job. A+++ (He’s also very handsome.)

Mr. Babaj did wonderful work putting together a queen bed-frame. He was extremely efficient and very professional. I will be using him again for other projects that need to get done in the apartment. I highly recommend him!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I had a fantastic experience with this contractor! He came out to my apartment to install a new water line from my sink to my refrigerator, and everything went perfectly. The work was done quickly, neatly, and with great attention to detail. He was professional, friendly, and took the time to make sure everything was working properly before leaving. It’s such a relief to have everything done right the first time — I couldn’t be happier with the service. Highly recommend!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Customers should know that I offer two types of pricing: an hourly rate for smaller jobs or a total price for larger projects after I assess the work.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to start by talking with the client to understand their needs and see if it’s something I can help with. We discuss the price so the client feels comfortable and knows what they are paying for. For larger or more complex projects, I prefer to see the situation myself, either through a video call or by visiting the site, before giving a final price. This way, everything is clear and organized from the beginning.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I went to a technical school and have a strong background in electricity, plumbing, and painting. I have always been involved in construction, working in different companies in areas such as HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and painting throughout my life.
