Testimonials

I have renovated several homes and offices and no experience compared to working with Sandy and his team. Due to the work he and his staff, especially Lisa, provided, I will always call upon SF Construction for services no matter how small or large the project may be. Because of the assuredness they gave me about our decisions and guidance through the process…I have a trust in Sandy and his company that is rarely achieved. I personally recommend them to everyone I know and meet who is looking to renovate their home or office.

Sandy and his team have been instrumental to my and my husband’s well-being when it comes to our homes for over 15 years. Renovations, especially in NYC, are extremely stressful. We learned our lesson the hard way, through disappointment with other contractors.

Whenever Sandy’s team is involved, everyone is happy. Lisa Otterbeck, our project manager, is intelligent, positive, organized, efficient and relentless in assuring we were 100% satisfied with every detail. Junior is outstanding as well. They can handle anything and love and respect our home as much as we do.

Investment property of ours in upstate New York suffered significant damage from Hurricane Irene in August 2011. We were out of the country on vacation and asked Sandy Friedman of SF Construction to step in.

He handled the situation with grace and aplomb. He interviewed several local contractors, found an honest company that named a fair price, and monitored their work. All over the phone and on internet! By the time we returned, the job was done and the house looked better than before. I don’t know what we would have done without him.

Sandy Friedman of SF Construction is at the top of his game. They specialize in remediating emergency situations.

An example is an apartment we are currently working on that had serious fire and water damage. We relied on SF Construction to relate to the fire marshals, investigators, insurance adjusters, as well as the building’s managing agent and board. He shepherded the entire process through and is currently rebuilding. Through a combination of patience, perseverance, and diplomacy, SF Construction knows how to get things done. I wholeheartedly recommend working with them.
