Eli Amitay and his crew did an exceptional job upgrading our screened porch to make it more dog proof, and at a fair price. They added cedar balusters all around (about 60). The spacing is even and accurate and they meticulously cut each baluster to fit tightly into the existing frame. They also rescreened the entire porch and took the time to remove 100's of old staples from previous screen installations and sanded down the surface for a tight and smooth screen fit. They also painted all of the trim and balusters. They arrived on time each day and cleaned up before leaving. I selected

Emailed and called them to get a quote. They responded with very brief and vague response. Never bothered to schedule a visit. I guess either my project is too small or those dudes have lots of businesses in their plate. I won't recommended them or use them in the future.

Not able to service, said that they did not have a shop and could not build the custom closets we wanted.

Eli continues to support us through another challenging renovation project. We're looking forward to working with him again to finish it up!

From information and time he took to assess the work and provide options (underwent deck/balcony remodel in DC rowhome) to the timeline and estimate, to the quality of the work, and even to communication (via text and email)--Eli and his crew did an outstanding job.
Great experience all around!
Thanks again, Eli!

So glad we hired Eli Amitay! He is a highly skilled carpenter with a creative eye and great attention to detail, who clearly takes pride in his work. We contacted Mr. Amitay (and a number of other contractors) about a unique and difficult project - building a 30-foot wooden ramp from our high deck to the ground for our elderly dog. Mr. Amitay created the most practical, functional, and visually appealing solution to our problem at a reasonable cost. He was careful to design the project in a way that kept the deck intact and made the ramp blend with its surroundings. He and his crew did an outstanding

I had Eli and his crew build a set of large bookshelves in my basement. It wasn't cheap -- real wood is expensive -- but I was impressed by Eli's passion for doing things the right way. There's no flex whatsoever in these shelves, and he blended in the trim in a surprisingly effective way. The final result exceeded my expectation. As an extra bonus, he got the job done fast. I found him on Yelp, and I wasn't disappointed.

Eli and his team (among other things) built some bookshelves in our hallway and living room. They look great...and more, they are strong. Eli said "you could climb these shelves" and he's right. High quality carpentry and good materials. And Eli was a pleasure to work with.

Mr Amitay wouldn't give a quote for replacing a front door. His exact response to my email inquiry was "Sorry we are very busy thanks."
I won't be reaching out to this company for anything again.

We have a small outdoor (dugout basement) area which was all concrete. We hired Eli to craft a wooden deck/floor. He did a fantastic job and even gave much needed advice about enlarging the (shower) drain our developer put in to better accommodate heavy rain fall. He is extremely professional, has excellent attention to detail, and his craftsmanship is superb. We are very happy with his work and would recommend him to anyone!

Love his work. His crew quickly and professionally repaired my drywall and painted my whole condo for a very reasonable price.

Will definitely use again.
