Comments: We cannot say enough good things about HFM Builders. From Howard, to Derek and his team, everyone is exceptionally professional, helpful, and at the top of their game. Howard and Derek are incredibly responsive and open to questions and working with you throughout a project. They are flexible where they can be to help make a project possible, and are of the utmost polite and professional. I've recommended HFM to both friends and strangers alike and would recommend them to you no matter the project!

Comments: What a great pleasure to write a 5 stars review about the extremely high quality workmanship, integrity, reliability, carefulness, cleanliness, creativity, professionalism, great value and common sense practicality shown us by HFM Builders and Howard Molen. Howard was incredibly responsive to my calls -- including repeatedly over the weekends! -- which was so appreciated because I am a novice as to renovations, and needed a lot of basic advice and guidance. Howard gave us great recommendations and alternatives on many aspects of the renovation, with great suggestions and information always at the tip of his fingers. He was consistently fair-minded and explained things well. He was respectful of our co-op rules and worked extremely well with the property manager. While I am a novice, I know enough to know how rare it is to find a contractor as incredibly responsive (and just plain professional, fair and nice!) as Howard. He uses his own employees, not subcontractors, and as a result there is a consistency of quality and trustworthiness that is highly prized. Kostek, HFM's employee-foreman, is an outstanding individual in every way. To our huge advantage, Kostek's own personal standards are extremely high and he does not compromise on quality of work; more than that, his judgment and great ideas meant wonderful improvements to our design and a truly terrific result. Kostek is trustworthy, open-minded, professional, genuine and fair, and we never had a moment's concern about Kostek and his HFM colleagues being in the apartment on their own. I was expecting, given what one hears about renovations/contractors, to have repeated problems but we had the opposite experience. We felt so lucky to be working with the high quality professionals of HFM and will absolutely hire them for any future work. We cannot recommend HFM, Howard or Kostek more highly!

Comments: Howard and his team remodeled my bathroom six years ago. They did an incredible job. His team was professional in every aspect of the job. The cleaned up everyday and the work was completed within the time frame stated. I have recommended Howard to my neighbor and he did a wonderful job for them also. I am having Howard do a partial remodel of my kitchen as we speak. Highly recommend Howard and HFM Builders.

Comments: I would not hesitate to recommend HFM Builders to anyone looking for top quality workmanship and excellent service. I was extremely pleased with the work they did and would definitely recommend Howard Molen and his crew. They were the complete opposite of every horror story you have ever heard about contractors. I hired HFM for an extensive NYC apartment renovation that took place over a 5-month period. The work included a complete gut and renovation of our bathroom (with all new fixtures and marble finishes), ceiling popcorn removal and re-plastering in living room and bedroom, re-plastering living room and bedroom walls, removal and installation of new wood flooring in living room and bedroom, new crown and base molding in both rooms and a complete repainting. The quality of the workmanship and the level or service was excellent. The crew that worked in our apartment was made up of old school Eastern European craftsmen that took great pride in their work and was attentive to detail (no moonlighting cops or fireman). The men showed up every day on time and got along well with my building super and building staff. Valdek, the crew foreman was routinely on-site and either supervised or did a fair amount of the actual work. He was very responsive to any issue I raised. We re-located to another apartment in our building and were able to monitor progress daily. Valdek frequently met us early in the morning before we left for work. Howard has been doing this for a long time and was a pleasure to deal with. He maintains a stable of specialty tradespeople for tasks like plumbing and tile installation and they were all first rate. Howard manages a staff of about 50 workers so he mainly handles initial estimating and admin. There was no need for him to come to the job site. Howard’s pricing was very much in line with other contractors we approached. If Howard’s estimate ends up being a few thousand dollars more than the next guy I’d still recommend hiring him for the piece of mind of knowing that the quality of the work and the level of service will be excellent. I’ve had other work done in our apartment in the past and by far Howard and his crew were the best.

Review Date: 09/16/2016 |
Comments: Remarkably, an extraordinary experience working with Howard and his men. I have hired a good number of contractors over the years and have never had such a positive process as well as result. Craftsmanship. Responsiveness to my concerns. Doing things the right way and treating workmen well. This job was more complicated than I realized in advance, although still a small job. I am so happy that I hired HFM. Excellent value and heartwarming experience. Doesn't really get better than that.
Review Date: 08/05/2016 |

Comments: Howard Molen is a Knight in Shining Armor! Working with him and his company has been a pleasant change from previous experiences. In fact, Howard came into a job poorly done by a previous contractor. His team was timely in taking care of my project. What a welcome relief! I highly recommend this company to New Yorkers!

Comments: I used H.F.M. Builders for my soundproofing project (ceiling and wall).Howard, the owner is delightful and a true business professional. I could tell from the day the project started I was in good hands. Howard hires true ARTISANS and the workers do not miss a detail, the finished product is magnificent. I would definitely use H.F.M Builders again and refer this outstanding company to others. Thank you. Kind regards,Virginia

Comments: We got our bathroom remodeled by HFM builders and we could not be happier with the results. Not only was the finish product exactly what we wanted, it was also done in the amount of time quoted. Howard and his team are very professional, reliable and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend them.
Review Date: 10/22/2013 |
Comments: Hurricane Sandy damaged my home from a one tone tree. Structure of the house and the roof needed to be replaced and repaired. Dereck and his staff did a great job. They have met my expectation on quality work. They took their time to do the job right. During construction, I was expecting a lot of junk and debris. But Dereck and their staff worked very clean. Such that after work, they cleaned everything. If I am not satisfied with the work, Dereck will resolve it and he did extra work without cost. which I appreciate very much.
Review Date: 10/16/2013 |
Comments: The work that was performed by HFM builders was excellent d on all categories.. I have already planned projects in the near future where HFM builders will be the contractor as well shared my experiences with family and friends.
Review Date: 08/25/2013 |
Comments: Howard and his team were extremely competent in whatever needed to be done for my kitchen makeover. They showed up daily until the work was completed (and it didn't take as long as I thought it would). Howard and Derek were patient and accommodating, especially when I accidentally overloaded a circuit by using an old appliance (dumb!). I called Howard and referred me to Derek, who made time to come and check the circuits and fix the problem. I would re-hire this company in a heartbeat!
Review Date: 06/28/2013 |
Comments: Reliable, Competent, Pleasant! My husband and I feel very lucky to have found Howard from HFM Builders. He returned our calls promptly and arrived at our home right on time for the appointments. Howard and his team are knowledgeable and have access to an extensive network of helpful professionals. We had an emergency plumbing problem on the weekend. We called Howard and within a few hours a plumber came and took care of the problem. It is a blessing to find someone like Howard. HFM does great work with a great attitude. We will gladly recommend Howard to all our friends.
Review Date: 04/23/2013 |
Comments: I hired HFM Builders, Inc. to complete a kitchen and bathroom renovation and from my first contact with Howard (company owner), I knew that the project would run smoothly. Howard was able to provide me with the documentation needed to get my Co-op board to approve the job in a timely manner, and once that was done, connected me with equally helpful and pleasant vendors of all of the materials I would need to get the job done. As someone completely new to the renovation process, I really appraciated all of the advice HFM offered to me. My contractor, Voldic, and his staff were professional, talented and a pleasure to work with.
Review Date: 03/14/2013 |
Comments: HFM Builders are great. I found them using Service Magic (now Home Advisor) to have them build two interior walls in my Manhattan condo. Their work was not only impeccable, but they were extremely patient and accommodating when my condo complex was being difficult and delaying construction. Howard always returned my calls, sent faxes for my condo complex when I needed them, and hired quality workmen who always showed up on time. Howard is also funny over the phone. Their price was midrange compared to other companies, and I am glad I went with them. I am grateful for good businessmen such as Howard and strongly recommend his company.
Review Date: 05/28/2012 |
Comments: very efficient and helpful; did extra work without charging more money- highly recommended!
Review Date: 05/09/2012 |
Comments: Howard (the owner) is quite the character -- warm and funny and yes, professional. We had a bit of a delay starting due to I'm not sure what, but once they got started they were courteous, professional, helpful and in general a pleasure to work with. The deck is beautiful. I definitely plan to use them in the future!
Review Date: 01/03/2012 |
Comments: It's difficult to express my satisfaction with HFM Company. I had four appointments with the company, and the contractors arrived always minutes BEFORE the appointed time. That has never happened with any other contractor. The quality of the workmanship is excellent. The foreman and his crew take pride in their work and do their utmost to satisfy the customer. I would not hestitate to use them again.
Review Date: 09/26/2011 |
Comments: Quick, friendly, quality professional service. Easy to work with and is flexible to meet the needs of the customer. Highly recommended.
Review Date: 08/25/2011 |
Comments: We used HFM to replace a steel security door & frame in our basement. Howard was very friendly. Since he was busy (which is a GOOD thing!) with other jobs, it did take 1 1/2 weeks before he could see us for an estimate. After that, we had to wait for a custom fit door to be made - not in HFM's control at all. Once the door was ready, the crew came within the week. They arrived early, made minimal noise, left the place cleaner than when they arrived and were very pleasant and professional. I would highly recommend HFM and will keep their card for future jobs!
Review Date: 03/14/2011 |
Comments: The guys built a new porch in my garden. The work was nice, the price reasonable, and the guys were incredibly nice, polite, and responsive. Mid-project there was a change, and the revised cost was reasonable. I'd definitely recommend them.
Review Date: 03/06/2011 |
Comments: HFM is a quality company that does quality work. Id like to thank Howard Molen, the head of HFM, down to staff members Valdic, Artur & MIrek 4 a job well done! Mine was a small soundproofing job which they treated with great care & professionalism. HFM gets 2 thumbs up and many thanks from me! regards, rob , ben w

Comments: Howard is a love machine and Dereck and his boys were born to swing hammers and smile. The cleanest worksite I have ever witnessed. I would return home in the evening after the crew was gone and there would not be an errant piece of sawdust. They worked tight, quick and solidly. Super care went into everything they did and the results are clear. Our new deck has changed our home. We adore it and can't thank Howard, Dereck and the crew more. Truly awesome and amazing!

Review Date: 06/20/2008 |
Comments: Installed a new bathroom with a Kohler Performance Showering System, new patio doors and a new air conditioner thru solid concrete. Unbelievably courteous and skilled workers who put in a full day of work and never slowed down. They kept the work area in pristine condition so no worries about tracking construction debris throughout the house. If there were any other major construction to do in my home again, I would not hesitate to call Howard. I LOVE HIM!

Comments: HFM did a great job keeping their work on time, on budget and to my design. There was a permit problem after the install that we are resolving now but has been handled very professionally. I even got a compliment from an architect how clean the installation was! I'll try to use HFM on every project I can.

Review Date: 08/18/2007 |
Comments: HFM did a great job on my total bathroom remodel - gutted the old bathroom and they built a new tile shower with tile floor, installed new fixtures etc. Also added overhead lights/fans - new electric to entire two bedroom apartment. The guys were very professional and polite - and great craftsmen - they took great care to not cause any more damage than was necessary. My co-op management company and next door neighbor were thrilled at the quietness and cleanliness of the common areas during the work. I felt that the prices on the "change order" items were a bit high - esp. Since the original quote seemed very fair. Overall - great.

Review Date: 10/20/2006 |
Comments: Howard is the man. He was professional, easy to work with, and his workers delivered on our expecations for the work that we requested. Also as an added bonus because of his experience in working in our building in the past, he was able to tell us a little bit of history about the people that lived in our co-op before us. We would welcome the opportunity to work with Howard again, and I would HIGHLY recommend him to others.

Comments: They were absolutely professional !!! Highly recommend and will certainly use their service again.
Review Date: 06/27/2006 |
Comments: I can't say enough good things about Howard, Kostek, and the team - they may not be the cheapest people in the business, but they are certainly some of the best. They show up when they say they will, the job gets done to a very high standard, and they leave the jobsite clean and tidy. The job that they did on my kitchen was fantastic, and their industry contacts meant that with everything from tiles to appliances to cabinetry I was in the hands of people who knew what they were doing. I would be very happy to recommend these guys to anyone, and will definitely bcalling them when I have more work done.
Review Date: 05/29/2006 |

Review Date: 04/30/2006 |
Comments: We will recommend HFM to everyone! They are doing an amazing job!
Review Date: 12/29/2005 |
Comments: They say that there are three aspects to a job: quality, price, and speed, and that you can have the best of any two, but not all three. In this case, I was satistified with the price, and with the ultimate quality, but the extreme slowness of the project was very frustrating. Some of this was because there turned out to be extra problems, but most of it was that the contractor was working on so many other jobs in concert with mine. And for better or worse (probably because they involved a lot more money than my small job, and the customers were a lot more demanding and less easygoing than me), completing my job was secondary priority. When the workman did show up, they were very industrious and skilled. No slacking, no fooling around. They were meticulous and precise and the workmanship was excellent. I thought the materials used were good quality as well. And even though some areas had to be taken out and redone because of complications, and extra components had to be found, the contractor did not increase the original estimate. So that counts for a lot. However, they would show up and work away for two days, then disappear for a week and I was never sure when they would show up. Then they'd work for a day and disappear for two weeks. I think about HALF the delays would have been sufficient, and would have factored in to make the overall value "very good" instead of just "good." Still, they were very nice, and I would use them again for household projects. But I think I'd set more parameters at the beginning.

Comments: I was extremely happy with the HFM CO. and the job they did remodeling my bathroom. The workmen actually showed up early everyday! They worked very hard and did'nt cut corners anywhere(they even carried a bathtub up 5 flights of stairs and worked on saturdays). I would definitely recommend them,they are true craftsmen and they finished the job ahead of schedule. HFM's owner,Howard Molen and his foreman,Kastik,were both a pleasure to deal with. I will definitely use them again in the future when i'm ready to remodel my kitchen.

Review Date: 08/11/2003 |
Comments: Very happy with their work, demeanor, and price. HFM work crews were reliable and clean (friendly too). Took a little longer for work to start due to weather/scheduling issues, but once it started, they were very efficient and conscientious. I did discover one window where they forgot to caulk around on the exterior which would have been disastrous and let water into the walls. However, after a quick call, they were back and all was fixed.

Review Date: 04/10/2003 |
Comments: Howard responded very quickly (about 12 hours) to my request for repair to a toilet that won't flush properly. After listening to my description of the problem, he suggested a fix that I could try myself to save the time and cost of having his crew come out, and then to "call him in the morning." If the quick fix didn't work, he offered to send a truck out (even on a Saturday) to take a look at it. Although I can't comment on the quality of HMF's work, I believe Harold displayed a great deal of integrity in suggesting the quick fix before incurring the cost of hiring his company. This gives me a great deal of confidence in the likely quality of work he provides.

Comments: HFM installed a second bathroom in my home and remoldeled the current bathroom. Both were done very well. All the workers were very meticulous about evey deatil. We did encounter some minor problems with the celeing they installed, but they came back witout a problem to fix the situation, and even on a Sunday, just as long as that was ok with us. I would recommend HFM to anyone who was looking to get house work done. In the future when I need work done, I will definatley use HFM. Even if I could find someone to do the same job, no one does it better as HFM does. Not only is the work they do imporatant to them, but also your house and personal belonings.

Review Date: 01/26/2002 |
Comments: These workers were the best and easiest part of my entire bathroom renovation. They were on time, they were knowledgeable, they were courteous, they were thorough. They asked me questions (instead of waiting for me to ask things I knew nothing about) and they were able to work under less than ideal circumstances. They even followed up during and after the job to make sure it went well. Hire this company!
Review Date: 01/21/2002 |
Comments: We used HFM to have the entire house painted. They were very meticulous about scraping and applying the paint. They did not seem to take any shortcuts. Howard Molen is very enthusiastic and, unlike most of the other contractors I considered hiring, made me feel like he really wanted to work with me. There were a few problems along the way but nothing that wasn't resolved quickly. When the ladder accidently crashed through my window, they fixed it in a timely fashion. In spite of indecision about the house color, they were very patient in showing us many options. We are very happy with the results. The cost was a bit more than we had anticipated but the price he quoted us was what we paid. Not a dime more. The only other problem was communicating with his workers. It was a little hard trying to tell his foreman what we wanted and were unsure he understood us even though he said he did. (Apparently he did understand, because he never got it wrong) His crew did not understand English at all, so any immediate problems had to wait until we could call their boss. Even though the communication wasn't very good with them, they were very courteous and pleasant. Unlike other contractors, they were reasonably quiet which I and the neighbors appreciated. All in all I was pleased with their work and our house has never looked better. I would use them again, and I recommend HFM

Review Date: 02/25/2019 |
Comments: I would like to give a reference for Howard Molen and HFM Builders. I had been recommended by our building, 45 Tudor City Place in New York City to reach out to him for some renovations to our studio apartment that needed completing. When I spoke with Howard by phone he was extremely professional and answered all of my questions and made me feel at ease with the whole process of renovations. We basically wanted for him to re-paint our studio apartment with minor wall repairs and his pricing was very reasonable and was able to get all of the necessary approvals, insurance, needed to get the job done. He even came to our apartment at 5am to meet with our tenant before she had to goto work to asses the scope of work that needed to be done. Such dedication. In the end we hired him to do the job which took a little less than one week to complete which he promised to do so we were able to get our place listed in a timely fashion to find a new tenant. I would highly recommend Howard and his crew at HFM builders.

Comments: Howard Molen of HFMCompany Inc. is someone I was fortunate to find through Home Advisor and he is nothing short of a treasure. I hit the Mother Load! Howard is not only a contractor and builder, but a man of great source and greater talent. He is simply, in a word, wonderful. Having lead TIME World News Service and 200 correspondents around the world including earning Pulitzers, I should be able to reach for words to describe him, except to also write that he is professional, generous, fair, and a whiz at what he does. I could not be in better hands, and I’ve done a lot of remodeling in my day. I admire who he is and what he does, and he not only supports with great advice, but has relaxed a difficult situation, finding a remedy, with spirit, trust, and all the good stuff we’re lucky to find. He is a credit to Home Advisor. Thank-you for creating this opportunity and contact for folks like me and many more to come.

Howard came back immediately when I had a concern about a job he did for me 3 years ago. He came back to resolve my concerns and I am completely satisfied with the result. This is the caliber of person Howard is. Again, I highly recommend him!
