  • professional and punctual
  • clean work and jobsite
  • willingness to problem-solve on site

YDY Professional Construction LLC

Reviewers consistently praise YDY for responsive scheduling, skilled work on kitchens and tile floors, and owner Yuniel's availability. Craftsmanship and finish quality earn repeated five-star ratings for everything from hurricane repairs to custom hoods. Two credible complaints emerge: one customer faced cabinet quality failures (cracked wood within a year), plumbing gaps requiring $800-1000 extra work, and broken warranty promises over two years; another felt uneasy about the lack of a physical office. The bulk of evidence supports their ability, pricing, and communication during the initial job.

Perfect Choice's sales team wins customers with fair quotes and professional initial consultations, and many installers deliver clean, precise work. However, post-contract service fractures sharply: crews have left homes chaotic with AC running and bathrooms unusable, warranty claims are disputed with excuses, and communication collapses once payment is made. One two-year dispute over protruding nails was only resolved months after complaint escalation. The business does complete large reflows and specialized repairs (carpet stretching, transition fixes) quickly when engaged. But multiple reviewers report having to chase staff for updates, dealing with shifting project managers, and being denied warranty work that seemed rightful. Results are strong when installation is fresh; the friction emerges when something goes wrong and the customer needs support.
