Client Feedback:
"From our perspective – The Castcapa team did a great job on this project from the management team to the crew performing the work. We would like to highlight that your team went above and beyond on a few occasions, such as agreeing to relocate scaffolds to different locations without charging for additional mobilization or equipment rentals. The quality of work performed was either in alignment, or above industry standards. Also note that your team continued to communicate issues in advance, which leads to transparency amongst the group as well as allows for problem solving efforts to begin so that we can collectively be in a proactive rather than a reactive position." - Joseph Contreras, Principal Consultant at Rimkus

Client Feedback:
"Castcapa did extensive Local Law 11 and roof work for our coop. They did an excellent job and followed up on all outstanding items. Castcapa kept the Board updated appropriately regarding the schedule and any issues that arose. We met with representatives from Castcapa on a bi-weekly basis which was extremely helpful. The project came in on time and reasonably within budget, although as the work was being done, issues came up that had to be addressed and this affected the budget. We can highly recommend them without reservation." – Amy Grossman & Michael Puccio, Board Members for 25 West 13th Street Owners Corporation

Client Feedback:
"Our overall experience on the facade work by Castcapa was excellent. The scheduling was great, the weekly updates were timely and on point and the two schedule delays were entirely due to outside events. We are pleased with the end result and shareholders were delighted that all of the work was finished so quickly. The punch list went smoothly and furthermore all terraces and common roof deck were put back together impeccably as promised. All in all, a great result." – Silvana Vlacich, Board Member.
"Castcapa is always a pleasure to work with. Project management, responsiveness, quality of work and timing is always a top priority for each team member there. Byron house had been a successful façade restoration project, even with a few delays along the road. Client is happy, Falcon is happy – you can’t ask for more!" – Danylo Varakuta, PMP, Division Manager of Building Envelopes, Falcon Engineering

Client Feedback:
“As a building manager, working on any capital project can be challenging. This is even more true when the work requires significant façade repairs, across a large residential building, in the height of a nation-wide pandemic where the majority of residents are working from home. However, after working with Castcapa during my building’s recent FISP cycle, I just wanted to say that they were truly a pleasure to work with. The workmanship was of a very high quality, they were always in compliance with DOB and City regulations, and were accommodating to all of our resident and staff concerns throughout the entirety of the project. I would certainly recommend them for future projects.” – James Gallagher, Managing Director, AKAM
