Center Island did a great job with all the finishes for my new kitchen and two bathrooms. Raquel was incredible to work with and made the selection process stress free. Everything turned out beautifully!

Thanks for the kind words, Rebecca.
It was a great project to be a part of. Thank you for your patience during the design, permitting, and build stages. The projects that we get to start from scratch, are our favorites.
It was a pleasure working with you.

Center Island Contracting did an excellent job renovating our bathroom. They were professional, easy to work with, and communicated clearly throughout the entire renovation. The quality of the craftsmanship and attention to detail really stood out, and the final result came out great. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable contractor for home renovations.

Top-notch contractor and GC in Suffolk and Nassau County. We had a truly fantastic experience with the entire team from start to finish. Caleb was incredibly accessible, and his entire staff was always responsive, professional, and easy to communicate with. The finished product was well beyond our expectations—the quality and attention to detail really stood out. Pricing was fair and reasonable, the process was smooth, and working with them was an absolute pleasure. Highly recommend without hesitation.

We engaged with CIC to build a 1450 sqft extension with a full bathroom and a wet bar. Evan was our 1st point of contact and stayed highly engaged throughout the process. The technicians that came to perform the construction from start to finish were professional and friendly. If your looking for a company that will confidently build whatever you need - this is it. Ask for Evan , he is very helpful and knowledgeable

Center Island Contracting renovated my home from a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom to a 4 bedroom, 3 full bathroom. It was a massive undertaking but it was successfully completed. My house is unrecognizable from the original structure. My friends and family are always impressed by the outcome. My financing was done through a construction loan and the team was patient and provided whatever documents were required for me to secure the loan. Have a conversation with Center Island to explore your options. It’s worth a try. I love my house!
Reply from Center Island Contracting 2025.10.22
Thank you so much for this wonderful review, Olivia! We're thrilled to hear how much you love your newly renovated home. Transforming your ranch into a custom colonial was indeed a significant project, and we're so proud of the results.

It means the world to us that your friends and family are impressed, and even more that you're happy with the results
We understand that navigating construction loans can be complex, so we're glad our team could support you through that process.
Thank you for recommending Center Island Contracting and for trusting us with such an important project. Enjoy your beautiful home!

I would gladly hire them again for a future construction project, and I can think of no higher compliment. For this project, they updated a bathroom and helped us add a new primary suite. Pictured is the updated bathroom. The job was finished on time with the permit, the work looks great, pricing was fair, and they stayed communicative and patient every step of the way.

We know living through a construction project like yours is always challenging.
But you guys never lost your cool and were always a pleasure to work with.
Thank you for that as well!
We are so glad you are pleased with the outcome and look forward to that next project too!
Enjoy your new space

Recently finished up a large renovation project where we added a new addition to our house which included a new primary bedroom and bathroom. Definitely satisfied with our choice of Center Island Contracting. From the initial quote all the way to the finishing of the project, everything was laid out in detail and done accordingly. Through out the entire process everyone at Center Island answered any questions we had and explained everything they did. Any issues that came up during the renovation was explained thoroughly with multiple options presented to us. I highly recommend them and will be using them for any future renovations.

That's kind of you to say, Kenny.
We are all really proud of how your project came out.
Glad you were pleased as well.
Enjoy your new space and thanks for choosing Center Island Contracting for your project.

We were told it would take about four weeks to gut renovate our existing bathroom, add a primary bath, and stain our floors. It took them five months. How did a four week job turn into a five month job?!? We had all of our selections picked out before the job started. We were ready to go. They kept making excuses (oh, no work the week of Thanksgiving and Christmas) okay, adding an extra two weeks to the timeline still doesn't explain how a "four week" job turned into a FIVE MONTH job!! (Hint: we'd watch on our doorbell camera, workers only showed up 1-2 days a week, so when you're only working on our house 1 day a week, of course it's going to take a lot longer). We moved out on 11/9/23 and moved back in the first week of March. Also, be careful with their "quote/proposal". A lot of our selections were left out of the proposal with the promise that we could add them in officially later on in the process, but surprise, adding our selections in later on = massive change orders. They were obviously keeping the proposal to the bare minimum to keep it as low as possible to get our business. The two stars I'm giving is because after five long months and doubling our budget, the final product was decently good, and we're happy with the final product.

Mr. Redfern, it saddens us greatly that you were disappointed with the process of your renovation. I wish it would have been able to be done faster as well. Many factors come into play during a remodel that can lengthen the time to completion. Please recall that there were some challenges with creating the new primary bathroom in the location desired. The plumbing work to construct a new bathroom in an area far removed from other plumbing is always a challenge, and I am happy we were able to solve this for you with minimal disruption. We are happy with the solutions we found to accommodate what your desired outcome was, while incorporating aesthetically pleasing finishes in the basement area, which needed to have a 3" waste line installed across your finished basement and tied into your waste line under the concrete slab. Also constructing 'dummy' walls to conceal these additional pipes in your finished basement and living room, added some work to your project. All told, this was not an ordinary 'direct replacement' of 2 bathrooms project.

And, while we are happy to accommodate the 12 requests for additional work, of which 9 were approved by you and increasing the scope of the work for the project, the governing rules and regulations of this industry require the homeowner to sign off on any items requested that were not part of the original scope of work. Regarding this project, items such as the flooring work, custom carpentry for your desk area, full floor-to-ceiling tile on all walls of both bathrooms, decorative niches, barn door installation, and removal and installation of the front entry door all increased the timeline for completion, with separate lead times for such materials. In short many times, it may seem that asking for additional work should just be figured into the next day's work schedule. However in order to be in compliance with the rules and regulations governing our industry, many factors are required to execute this additional work including, administrative requirements, submitting a change of scope, waiting for client approval of change of scope, ordering or materials, lead time on materials, and scheduling. This start-and-stop nature does effect our momentum significantly having much more of an impact on schedule than many would assume.

I agree though, that starting a project in November, and being in 'Punch List' until March seems longer than usual but, as was advised prior to starting, we do close down for Thanksgiving and two weeks during Christmas and New Year's (as you were advised). Additionally, your own personal vacation plans prohibited us from working for a week on one occasion.
I am happy you are pleased with the outcome. Our team works extremely hard to ensure the level of finish work exceeds our client's expectations. We love your bathrooms and hope you do too.

It’s a project we all are very proud of. But I will certainly take your criticism to heart and see what we can do better next time.
Thank you for the opportunity and it was nice having met you both.

We recently completed a nearly full remodel of our new home with Center Island Contracting, and we are absolutely thrilled with the results. Caleb, Evan, Bill, Myron, Raquel, Alicia, and every other team member were a pleasure to work with, and it was clear that our project was so much more than a job to them. In addition, the recommendations that they gave us for appliances, HVAC, closet customization, and painting exceeded our expectations for both pricing and job quality. We worked with several reputable companies while renovating our previous home, but I would unhesitatingly recommend CIC over all of them. It has been almost 3 months since we moved in, and we are still amazed at how precisely and impeccably CIC converted a vision in our minds into our dream home.

Toni & Will, thank you so much for the kind words. You were truly a pleasure to work with on this "whole house makeover". Thank you for your patience, enthusiasm, and overall demeanor. We think the project came out fabulous and we really appreciate the trust you placed in us.
We hope your family enjoys the 'new' house for many years to come.
Thabks again!

Nothing could have ever prepared me for the overwhelming process of completing a full home renovation but with the team at Center Island, they guided me every step of the way! Despite the exhausting list of frustrations related to any construction project, Center Island did their very best with making the process as seamless as possible. Center Island is absolutely a one stop shop for all of your construction needs especially their great design center to assist you with all your design needs. Working with Evan and Bill was a pleasure, as they always addressed my questions and concerns promptly. Even during the times when I was not the most patient client, Evan and Bill always remained professional and committed to achieving the desired outcome. Most all of all, I could not be happier with the outcome of my beautiful home! I am forever grateful for Center Island making my dream house become a reality.

Project type: Addition First time doing something that big to the house, don't very know what I get myself into, but lucky we found CIC. Overall the whole process was smooth and they competed everything we wanted/asked for. There are some minor hiccup here there during the built but they handle it well and address any problem professionally. Have no communicate problem, always respond our calls and questions even during holiday. Huge thank to CIC.

After reaching out to different contractors to complete a dormer/first floor renovation to our home, we came across Center Island after seeing a project being done in a neighboring town. CIC did a beautiful job putting up our dormer. We were very happy with how quickly the dormer came about and how respectful the team was to our neighbors. They kept the neighboring properties on both sides of our home clean and undisturbed. CIC made it easy to design our home and make decisions, especially with having an architect and designer on staff. We have been very happy with quality of work they have completed so far. Anyone who comes into our home cannot stop talking about how beautiful it is. We are looking forward to the project being finished soon and having the home we always dreamed of! Thank you CIC

We can't thank Center Island Contracting enough or the beautiful job they did renovating our home. Everyone who was part of the project was professional and thorough. Evan listened to our ideas and made them even better with his vision and expertise. John handling the architecture and making the permit process on our end effortless. Bill, our project manager, patiently addressing all our questions and concerns, making sure everything got done as it should. Caleb coming through in the clutch with the line voltage thermostat and flag pole lighting. Louis, Louis, Myron (and his son), Chris, and the entire crew who put in all the hard work doing the build. Their skill is top-tier and the nicest people you will ever meet. We are so happy we went with CIC for our project and would absolutely recommend them.

Stumbled across CIC randomly searching contractors & so happy we did. Evan offered many options & worked with us to get our dream off the ground. Bill (their project manager)has positioned our job to be the best quality craftsmanship we could ask for & made us thrilled to work with them for one of the most important decisions people can make in their lives. Improving our livelihood is an understatement! Many thanks to the entire team @ CIC.
