Tristate Sustainable, llc

Sloppy and incompetent construction work. The mistakes ranged from sloppy light fixture and outlet installation to major screwups on floor and tile installation. Crooked line, improper measurements, uneven walls, etc.

I hired this company and used them in the recent past for a full gut renovation of my studio co-op. And I can tell you this much, this company was incredibly incompetent in multiply areas of renovation construction and showed a lack of knowledge in how to properly perform competent renovation work. Unfortunately, I was taken in by the beautiful pictures on the website and promises of a beautiful renovation. THAT WAS NOT TO BE THE CASE AT ALL. My dealings with Jos Dudgeon of Tristate Sustainable, were from the very beginning a disaster. He began to cut corners and perform inferior workmanship. Like trying to convince me to have tiles around my window (and elsewhere) cut at a 45 degree angle, producing razor sharp edges, instead of using bullnose molding.. Additionally, wall tiles were improperly installed resembling a basket weave throughout the bathroom. Floor tiles were also installed unevenly. Kitchen flooring was too installed unevenly, resulting in kitchen cabinets that are an inch off the floor in places. Ceiling lighting and wall switches were incorrectly and improperly installed, leaving gaps around the recessed lighting, which does not work properly to this day. Large wall cracks appeared shortly after installing a wall. Living room steps and floor were gauged out and left unsightly because of incompetent sanding technique, as was uneven floor staining. I could go on and on and I have the photos to prove everything I say. Don't be fooled by a lot of promises, like I was. DON'T USE THIS COMPANY.
