Best Building Inspection in New York NY

HBNY performed our Local Law 152 inspection. They were on time, professional and submitted report to the city right away. As a property manager a company like HBNY is a pleasure to work with because they are reliable, affordable and responsive.

Crooks. They told my super that the flood in the apartment below me was because I needed my flange replaced. I called other (honest) plumbers and my insurer and they said my flange only needed to be replaced in my apartment if there was visible flooding in my apartment and a stench. There was neither. Because they said I needed the flange replaced I had to get it done. They spent hours in my bathroom sitting on the flood doing nothing (I was getting billed hourly) and then went to charge me $855. And of course there is still flooding in the apartment below mine.

Very enterprising gentleman, Mr. Watson. Wish him all the best..

I've used Kew Forest twice this past year. Once for the installation of a water heater in my commercial building in Astoria and for a relay in my personal home. While Kew Forest might be a little more expensive than others, their service and expertise is, in my opinion, among the best! The only reason that I didn't give them five stars, and believe me, the only reason, is because I had a recent question about my last bill. I called their office and explained the reason for my call to the lovely receptionist who assured me of a timely response from one of the principals. I never received that call! Perhaps I'm a little jaded, but as a retired owner of a successful software company, I made such an inquiry from my valuable customers a priority! Perhaps this was only an oversight, and I will treat it as such. I plan on continuing to do business with Kew Forest in the future.

I've been struggling with my bathroom sink leaking for the past month and my apartment did a horrible job fixing it, which just made the leak worse. I called up today and requested service, and thankfully Neha was able to find the time slot that works with my crazy schedule. The plumber came today - found out what was causing the leak, fixed it, cleaned up and double-checked to make sure all was good. The entire process took less than an hour. Really recommend!

We have been working with Nivo for quite a while and he has always been very responsible, responsive and has reasonable prices. David is very professional and will help you through any process without hesitation.

Good honest group, on top of their game.

Great service ?

The guy from 72F spent an hour walking through my basement and boiler room, knew exactly what he was looking at, and described all that was going wrong with my steam heating system without even running it or starting up the boilers (which I appreciated given it was a hot summer day). His assessment proved to be spot on and and was detailed in a short report with annotated photos of the pipes and showing clear, specific fixes that ultimately silenced my banging pipes when several others failed to cure these issues in multiple attempts. Pricey service but more than worth it in the end, especially since we seemed to have used less fuel this past season, which definitely saved us money.

Unreliable. Unprofessional. They canceled twice to review the job and when they finally showed up they were not equipped to do a proper estimate. It took them more than 10 business days to provide an estimate that I had to follow up with.

Awful place. They keep standing me up. They make me clear my schedule, and then when they're an hour late, telling me they're not coming. It's so disrespectful and frustrating. The radiator replacement job has also ballooned from $1,500 to about $3,750.

The only way to reach the man in charge of the job, Dom, is to call the office at 8am. If you call at 9am, he's gone for the rest of the day and you'll just play more phone tag. He doesn't have a cell phone, apparently.

I'm so furious with these people. The cost ballooning is bad enough, but the lack of basic consideration for my time and schedule is so infuriating.

Update: The plumber, George, let our cat out the front door and locked it out. He then didn't tell us he had done this. My wife found the cat waiting at the door later. If you have cats, you know how messed up it is for somebody to let your cat out into the street. When I told him about this, he said I only saw one cat which was both untrue and wasn't an apology. Who cares if you didn't realize we have two cats? Don't let cats out. He and his assistant had seen both cats the day before and said it was fine to have them out. They didn't give us any warning that they were coming into that room the next day so we couldn't have locked the cats up anyway.

They almost killed our cat and charged us about 120% more than they quoted. Horrible company.
