Kind words from some of our clients:

“The renovation is complete and each time I open the entry door I smile. I love to come home. Restorer Inc., the Art of Construction with Abel Rovner as the captain of his amazing team of skilled craftsman, made my dream of a wonderful New York apartment a reality, transforming the ordinary into an extraordinary space.
Throughout each phase of the project, Abel provided skill and support. He is hands on. He helped me refine and shape my ideas with his knowledge of architecture and design. At times I thought he could read my mind. He led me to resources and showed me materials that were integrated into the plan. He made the suggestions that made a difference. He is a master of detail and strives for excellence in elements large and small. He is an artist loving to restore when you can, replacing when necessary still respectful of time and budget. Open a kitchen wall, add a niche to make use wasted space, put a shower head in the bath ceiling, install new cabinets and appliances to perfection, make a subtle change in paint color, bring the former beauty back to an old but wonderful parquet floor, repair a wall badly damaged by years of mistreatment, these are but a few of the things that make Abel Rovner stand head and shoulders above the rest. His company name, “The Art of Construction” perfectly describes him and Mr. Rovner is the perfect choice for a home restoration project. You can count on it.
I recommend him on every level and am proud to be included with his references.”

“Abel and his team did a beautiful job on the complete renovation of our apartment in a Victorian brownstone in Brooklyn.  His top-quality work — on-time and on-budget — included installing new electrical systems and lighting, building walls and closets, refinishing plaster walls, painting every surface in the apartment, installing glass wall panels and more.  We were especially impressed with the care he took of our woodwork, seamlessly blending new with old.

As a Feng Shui consultant I am very happy to use our apartment as a model of a livable and nourishing space with great Feng Shui.  Thanks, Abel, for taking such good care with your work.”

“We used Restorer Inc. to completely renovate a bathroom in our Manhattan apartment. Abel Rovner runs a very professional operation. Even though this was a small job, Abel paid attention to every detail. He always answers calls and emails. Throughout the process, the crew was considerate and did everything possible to minimize the mess.

The quality of their workmanship is fantastic. Even after the project was done, and payments completed, when he was in the building Abel came by just to check that everything was OK. He really takes pride in his work.

Without hesitation, I’d hire Abel Rovner and his team for any future renovation in our apartment. I recommend him and his company, Restorer Inc., in the highest terms.”
