Remodeling Consultants are in total control (an amazing feat, since rarely are the words total control and remodeling uttered in the same sentence). Theyre so sure of it that the company actually offers a three-year warranty and puts it in writing.

Imagine a home remodeling project that is utterly painless: no cost or time overruns. no execssive mess or disruption during construction, and a result that inspires pride.
That is the service that Remodeling Consultants at 500 Halstead Avenue, Mamaroneck, NY 10543, Phone: (914) 381-6900, strives to provide. Its founder, Jerome J. Zaccaria Sr, has spent over 50 years perfecting the process. What began as a one man operation is now a business with a staff of 200.
The story of Remodeling Consultants begins more than three decades before the company was even founded. Just as the Great Depression was baring its teeth, Jerome Zaccaria Sr. was born into an Italian family in the Hell’s Kitchen neighborhood of Manhattan.
