18 trades. 12+ cities. One tough network connecting New York homeowners with vetted local pros.
New York homes get hit differently than anywhere else, and we've learned what that means. New York ranges from lake-effect snow and nor'easters upstate to humid summers in the city, driving demand for heating, ice-dam and roof work, and storm restoration. Our pros in New York live with these conditions daily, so diagnosis is faster, the materials chosen actually hold up here, and scheduling fits your seasons instead of fighting them.
Credentials first: New York does not license general contractors at the state level, licensing is handled by cities and counties, so always verify local credentials. We check every pro's trade and municipality credentials before their first job, because a paper license and a real one are two very different things.
Emergency at midnight, remodel next spring, same standard across New York and all 50 states. Vetted pros, written upfront pricing, clean job sites, fixed-right guarantee. The trades below each carry their own dedicated New York line, answered by a person, not a phone tree.
If it's an emergency, don't wait on a form. Water spreading, power out, a tree in your living room, emergency trades dispatch 24/7 across New York and emergency calls go straight to the front. Open the trade you need and call, a dispatcher gets moving on your problem immediately.

The trades New York homeowners call us for most, each with a dedicated local line.
Stuck garage door? Fixed today. Your garage door is the largest moving part of your home, and when a spring snaps or an opener dies, you're stuck, literally.
Brighter rooms, lower energy bills. Old, drafty windows are one of the biggest sources of energy waste in a home, and one of the most visible.
Tough siding that transforms your curb appeal. Siding is your home's first line of defense against weather, and its biggest visual surface.
The right dumpster, delivered on time. Every big project creates a mountain of debris, and hauling it yourself means endless truckloads, dump fees, and wasted weekends.
Clean, serviced portable restrooms, anywhere. Whether it's a months-long construction project or a single-day wedding, people need clean, reliable restrooms wherever they gather.
Fast water extraction and complete dry-out, day or night. Water damage gets worse by the hour.
The fastest hire is usually the one you regret. A bad job costs twice, once to do it, once to fix it. Here's the checklist our dispatchers wish every New York homeowner ran through before signing anything, built from the mistakes they hear about daily:
1. Verify the license, don't take their word for it. Ask for the license number and check it against New York's licensing records. Licensed pros have passed exams, carry required insurance, and can be held accountable. Unlicensed operators vanish when problems surface.
2. Demand proof of insurance. General liability and workers' comp, current and in force. If a worker gets hurt on your property and there's no coverage, the liability can land on you. A real pro shows certificates without blinking.
3. Get the scope and price in writing. Verbal quotes evaporate. Your written estimate should spell out exactly what's included, what isn't, the materials being used, and the timeline. Every Rock Hands estimate comes this way, free, before work starts.
4. Never pay the full amount upfront. A deposit for materials is normal on big jobs; full payment before completion is a red flag. Milestone-based payments tied to finished work keep everyone honest.
5. Ask about the final walkthrough. A pro confident in their work wants you inspecting it. Our fixed-right guarantee means the job isn't done until you sign off, and if something isn't right, we come back and make it right.
6. Check how they handle surprises. Every home hides something, old wiring, rotted subfloor, a previous owner's creative plumbing. Ask upfront how change-orders work: are you notified before extra cost is incurred, and do you approve it in writing? Pros who answer clearly have done this before. Pros who dodge the question haven't, or worse, they profit from the ambiguity.
