Why choose us We are a full service remodeling and renovation company catering to homeowners & businesses alike. Being in business for over Thirty years you learn from experience what works and what is important to our clients. Communication To assure your complete satisfaction we return all phone calls the same day. We know one of the most frustrating things is not to be able to reach someone when you have a question. Communication between the contractor and the client is one of the most important parts of the job. During the job we are available to schedule meetings or just to touch base, all according to your schedule. Showing Up We know when you arrive home you are anxious to see all of the progress that was made. It can be very frustrating to find out that no one showed up at your home without even a phone call. Now after a long day at work, you have to make phone calls and leave massages to find out what is going on and wonder if someone will show up tomorrow. This is something we take very seriously. We give you a courtesy call the night before and let you know of any schedule changes, inspections, and deliveries you may be receiving. Informing our clients of scheduling is of most importance to us. Cleaning up This is a very important part of the job for the client as well as Your Way Contractors. We cover all work area openings with plastic. We use air filter machines outside of the work area to catch any dust that may find its way out of the work area. We keep the interior & exterior of the job site clean. We vacuum the work area at the end of everyday. Keeping the job site clean makes the client happy, and if the client is happy I learned that I am happy. We have our own dumpster and are registered with the DEP. This allows us to make frequent trips to the transfer station so as not to have a dumpster sitting at your home for the duration of the job. Not only is it an eyesore sitting in your driveway for weeks at a time, it can also be dangerous. Professionalism Everyone on our team is courteous and willing to help you in anyway. Insurance We are fully insured with liability and workers compensation insurance. I am the owner of the company Eugene P. Engelman I will be the one coming out to give you an estimate. I also personally supervise the entire job. Estimates Call our office to set up an appointment at: 908-273-5855 We can usually schedule an estimate within two business days and weekend estimates are also available. The average turn around time for you to receive your written estimate is within five to seven business days.

We contracted with Your Way Contractors (Ywc) in June to completely remodel our half finished 1300-sq. ft. basement. In short, we were (a) satisfied with the work, (b) would use YWC again and (c) would recommend YWC to others. Our 1300-sq. ft. basement was half finished with teal linoleum floors, wood paneling floor to ceiling and a dropped ceiling with the 2x2 panels found in older offices. We were seeking to completely remodel the basement with a modern look and feel. We wanted to finish the unfinished portion. Finally, we also wanted to add a full bathroom and an in-law suite with an egressed window. PROPOSAL / QUOTATION The YWC proposal process was quick and efficient. YWC uses a graphical tool to that helped us visualize a few different basement layouts. No other contractor that we worked with had this tool, so this was a plus. YWC also provided us with a competitive quote in a reasonable timeframe. QUALITY OF WORK The completed work was high quality and looks amazing. Gene used good subcontractors to complete things such as the electrical and plumbing. One concern we had was making sure the basement was warm enough. The basement is now the warmest room in the house due to YWC's solid insulation job. Another thing we liked about YWC was the ability to purchase our own materials and have YWC provide insight into alternatives. If there was one drawback to choosing our own materials, it was that we didn't always choose correctly. We thought Gene could've offered more insight to avoid this upfront. However, all in all it was our preference to be able to choose our own materials. TIMING & ORGANIZATION YWC for the most part was good at getting things done when they said they would. YWC was open to our change requests and kept the lines of communication open. We were always able to get Gene on the phone pretty quickly. From start to finish, our basement refinish project took about 10 weeks. Gene was realistic and upfront with us about delays that could be caused by inspections, etc. PROFESSIONALISM We appreciated YWC's professionalism. Everyday they were careful to place protective cloths on our floors. They kept a relatively clean workplace. OTHER After project completion, YWC returned and helped us fix an issue we had with our subterrean pump. We appreciated Gene's willingness to help us out.

The owner or his son were on site almost always when work was being done. The quality of the work was excellent. I had a minor problem with the shower drain, and the owner came by to fix it himself. He also inquired if there were any other problems he could take care of . I have recommended them to several of my friends.
