By Bruce E.January 20, 2022
My Manhattan apartment was left a disaster in May of 2021 after a massive steam break that went undiscovered for 2 days. The apartment looked like an abandoned warehouse with pain hanging off of ceilings and walls, beautiful wood flooring unrecognizable with imbedded plaster and paint, and damage to wood trim and doors.
As a construction manager for the City of New York I'm always a bit leery of contractors but after a short time dealing with Mr. Michael D'Antoni and his crew I felt a sense that Urena took personal pride in their workmanship and now that the work is completed, and believe me it was no easy task, I am so happy with the finished product.
In fact, my floors which were a total disaster, are the crown jewel and my neighbors cannot believe how beautiful they came out. I should charge admission to have them walked on.
Thanks Mike D'Antoni and the crew at Urena Construction and Design -

In June 2020, our home suffered a fire that due to smoke and water damaged, needed to be totally rebuilt from top to bottom Ureña Construction was recommended by our public adjuster and we could not have been any happier. We met Odalis at his office in August and by November, work was underway The staff at Ureña was always available to discuss, responsive and attentive and the work done was top notch from granite, cabinets, floors, bathroom accessories, lights, fans, electrical, painting, building and structural, all items were extraordinary and everything was done to code. The water was always polite, able to answer the many questions that I had.. Odalis, the owner is very knowledgeable with years of experience and project manager, Jonathan always followed through with me on the many items that needed attention & went above and beyond to insure that my home would be rebuilt exactly as we needed. The staff, Michael, Chris, Javier, Alejandro, Carolina, Michelle & Zoe treated me with the utmost of professionalism and I would recommend Ureña Construction and Design for anyone looking to remodel or rebuild their home.

Unfortunately, we had a fire and it was horrible.
When we had lost hope, Ureña construction came along and made us feel good. They always responded when we had any questions or add-ons for the house. They did amazing work and it feels like a different house. I will definitely contact them for more projects in my home. -

This Spring we had a leak and our kitchen sustained major water damage:
cabinets buckled and peeled, oak floors warped and cupped, lower trim and kickboards damaged.
John Stella (water mitigation with PuroClean) highly recommended a contractor
for the demolition and rebuilding. He cited good teams and a thorough
command of restoration details, as well as familiarity with the intricacies of
working in Manhattan co-op apartments.
We called Mike D'Antoni of Urena Design Construction for an appointment. He
came by the next day, viewed the damage and outlined the steps to rebuild
the kitchen. He was knowledgeable, reassuring, and organized. His "pitch"
was so practiced that my skeptical self felt "this is too good to be true".
As we spoke though, I sensed that this fellow was authentic and enjoyed
rescuing people and their building calamities.
When we asked the time-line for all of the work, Mike said they could start right away - in 3 days! Mr. D'Antoni handed us off to Jonathan, the organized and efficient Project Manager, who sent 3 different teams to work in our apartment.
They were all punctual, careful, skilled, and friendly.
Most impressive: Mike, Jonathan, and team members communicated expertly
by phone, text, and email. They always answered our calls or got back to us
quickly to discuss scheduling, work details, timing, or procedure.
Total 5 Stars (*****!) for marvelous communication and responsiveness!!
CONCLUSION:
This was a great resolution to a stressful disaster. Everything Mike outlined
unfolded just as he predicted it would!
We would certainly choose Urena for any future building projects we undertake!Review by Peter M.

Urena Construction was recommended to me after a major water leak I had in my house. They have done an excellent job and I would not hesitate to call them again for anything I might need in the future. Odalis and Michael have been very courteous and respectful to me and my house. Michael was responsible for the job and he has done a wonderful job, made sure everything was clean, and finished in a very timely manner. I actually called him for another small job that needed immediate attention and he managed to fit me in the schedule as quickly as possible. Thank you Michael for your courtesy and professionalism. Thumbs up to Urena Construction!

We would like to compliment Michael D’Antoni and Urena Construction and Design for the absolutely superb work and service they provided us. We had a flood two days before our departure for several months abroad, and frankly were rescued by Michael. He came to our Manhattan apartment on the day we called, evaluated the work that needed to be done and got it done it in a timely fashion. The workmanship of his team was excellent, the electrician solved a short others did not find, and his team worked diligently with no delays. Michelle did a great job with all the paper work. Michael scores a 10 in communications with lots of phone calls and pictures. We thank Urena and Michael D’Antoni for the dedication they showed throughout the project. We look forward to working with Urena in the future and certainly highly recommend them.

By The S.August 13, 2020House Fire
We were introduced to the team at Urena construction after a terrible house fire. After meeting and speaking with the team I felt confident that they would do their very best to get us back home. I was not disappointed. Odalis and team showed great professionalism as they explained the entire process of the renovation. We were kept up to date during the entire process, even when faced with unexpected problems along the way. Thank You Odalis, Jonathan and Javier. A special thank you to Javier who throughout this difficult process was especially professional and patient. He is great at interior design and gave great suggestions on choosing designs that went perfectly together. I am grateful for the team whose great skills and attention to detail have given us back a beautiful new home. We gotten so many compliments on the house! Also, special thank you to Zoey for everything you have done for us.

AMAZING WORK!!!JOB WELL DONE!!! Odalis and Johnathan, Project Supervisor, are very professional and efficient. They were able to accommodate me around my hectic schedule. Nothing was impossible for them! URENA did an exceptional job on one of my apartments that had to be gutted out due to water damage. They worked hard to get this project done in a few days, although they assured me a week or so... I was pressed for time and they delivered!!! THEY WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND!! I was very stressed over this project cause I was in the middle of closing on selling and the apartment was totally destroyed. Johnathan made me feel confident and reassured me there would be no problems or issues. He was able to assist me in picking out flooring, kitchen cabinets , doors, paints... the works! I was so confident... I had him pick out the countertops...and they were absolutely fabulous!!!!!I ran into some complications when the work was done which had nothing to do with the services provided by URENA , but after reaching out to them for their advice, they were able to assist me and asked for nothing for this service to me!!! I highly recommend URENA and will be bringing them back for more wok. Their services exceeded my expectations. Everything ran smoothly without any stress for me( these projects can become very stressful )

Odalis and crew has changed my family lives. My family house burned down 2 years ago. UCD started right away and took care of my family as if it was his own. He allowed me to stop by during the process and ensure my satisfaction. He enhanced so many thing under the insurance coverage and managed to do some special things for us. He made special accommodations for my mother in a wheelchair, which I'm forever grateful. The crew is now part and forever be a part of my family.Thanks staff and crew
Special Thanks to Odalis -

My 4-family property has a fire on December 5th, 2018. The fire was on the second floor but caused great damage to the roof, second floor, first floor and the basement. We had several contractors approach us but we did not know which contractor was good because they all promised the same things and we didn't know anything about their work quality. Venessa, a violation removal specialist at expertviolationremoval.com, was very helpful at explaining how our property violations could be removed, and she also recommended Urena Const & Design Inc as my contractor. I then gave Urena Odalis a call late that night. He was very professional and thoroughly went over the different stages of the repair. He was patient at explaining what repairs and paper work had to be done in the correct sequence and at explaining how insurance claim work. His direction and advices made him standout from all other contractors, and I knew Odalis was the right person for the repair job of my property.
After signing the contract, he immediately applied for City permits and soon after that he started the repair using his own money without any payment from the insurance. Odalis used the proper construction materials that meet New York City Building codes. His workers had excellent skills and they paid great attention to work details. Odalis took me to several supply stores in Queens, and he said I could pick any materials for the floors, kitchens and bathrooms. He did not care about how expensive these materials were. Odalis was also a great interior designer as he made outstanding suggestions on how to pick materials that match colors and look good together. At the end of May 2019, Odalis finished the repair job, 3 months earlier than estimated on the contract. He removed all city violations on my property.
I was blessed meeting Odalis and Venessa during the time that our family was devastated by the fire. Another important person was Anthony Luparello at New York Adjustment Bureau (http://nyabclaims.com). He was my public adjuster who helped claim excellent amount of money from the insurance. These people help restoring our building and our lives. Now we have a beautiful house. Thank you for the Great job you have done and you certainly will have my business again. Toan Nguyen -

We had a house fire in Queens NY, 2018. A friend of the family recommended Urena Construction & Design. They got permits 3 weeks after the fire. It took them 3 month to completely remodel our 2 family home. Odalis Urena went beyond what the insurance payed for. I will forever be grateful thank you Urena !!

Im really Surprised at the review recently posted, I hired Urena Construction and they were excellent! Took them approximately 6 months to 7 months to start and finish my house in Mt. Vernon despite all the pre inspections and restrictions in my town. I would recommend this contractor anyday. Odalis went above and beyond with what the insurance paid for and what he promised.
