JFA Renovations Work in Progress

At JFA Renovations, we redefine attention to detail, offering meticulous craftsmanship and personalized service that transform spaces into works of art.

Joe has an extensive history in the construction industry coming from both sides of his family and spanning multiple generations. This taught him the value of bringing artistry and integrity to every project. Samantha was born in a construction zone, as her mother, a renovations expert emulated innovation and precision in every project.

Joe and Sam Ferraro founded JFA Renovations to reimagine a concierge approach to the kitchen and bath industry. We are driven to create a legacy through modeling hard work and dedication to our clients. Our promise is to take care of your home like we would our own, which means thorough communication from first conversation to final touches and cleaning up after our projects.

Our staff and our clients are an extension of our family. We maintain a consistent set of staff that are vetted long before your install or project starts. We use our trusted and talented contractors to ensure your construction fulfills your vision, is in budget and on time.

What the people are saying

We are absolutely delighted with our bathroom remodel by JFARenovations. Samantha’s expert advice made selecting the tiles, the plumbing fixtures, and accessories much simpler and certainly resulted in a more polished look than we would have achieved on our own. Joe and his crew, including the subs, were very professional. All work from demo to finishing touches was expertly done. Every effort was made to keep the work area neat with the minimum amount of disruption. Joe and the subs were flexible and accommodated our special requests. The job was meticulously planned out and the day-by-day schedule made it easy for us to keep up with what was happening. When our schedule created some snags Joe and Samantha both stepped in and handled details for us that went far beyond what most contractors would do. The project finished right on schedule and within what we budgeted. We give JFA our highest recommendation.

—Joe and Roanne Angiello

Joe and Sam have done multiple projects for me over the last several years including smaller items like replacing front doors and the big ones like gutting and replacing our kitchen. Joe is extremely organized and methodical in his construction process. He is also a very creative problem solver when inevitable construction issues arise. Sam is great at listening to what you think you want and then guiding you to a design solution that you will be happy with. All their work has been executed on budget and on time. We are completely happy with every project JFA Renovations has done for us and enjoy our home even more.

We have lived in Ridgewood for over 30 years and feel so fortunate to have been connected with Joe a few years ago. He has graciously completed dozens of projects for us over the years and with each one we are more and more impressed with his extensive expertise, professionalism and attention to detail, but most importantly he is incredibly reliable and his work is impeccable. It is truly a pleasure to work with him and the team he has built.

Joe Ferraro of JFA renovations recently did work on our home that included a complicated installation of replacement custom windows on a house built in the early 1900s. The work involved a large amount of precise measurement and planning, as the windows were large and curved around a portico entry to the home. In addition, it required custom carpentry around the windows that needed to match the original wainscotting. He did an excellent job, was timely, on budget, meticulous in his work and we would highly recommend him to others for any job. Joe is also unique in he has a great interpersonal style – when there were complications on the project he proposed efficient, cost effective solutions that he implemented quickly. Thanks again Joe for the excellent work!

All of my favorite features in our home were built or installed by JFA. From the ideation process to accompanying us to vendors and product selection to installation, Sam and Joe were with us every step of the way. Interiors, exteriors—they do it all. Sam is thoughtful in her recommendations and has incredible taste. Joe’s professionalism and attention to detail is second to none. Sometimes, I think we find projects around the home just to work with them again! Cheers to the next job. We are lucky to be your clients.

I cannot praise JFA Renovations enough for my newly updated full bathroom! From design advice to installation and through finishing touches, the renovation experience was easy and reassuring. JFA Renovations consistently demonstrated professionalism and impeccable precision, and now I have a beautiful full bathroom that was completed just under budget and before deadline.

—Susan Sperling

JFA construction is such a pleasure to work with and I look forward to using them again in the future! Samantha created an amazing kitchen layout and executed the perfect combination of function and beauty!! Joe is always meticulous and makes any project a success! Thank you both for all your help to make my house a home! Looking forward to our next project

Joe and his phenomenal crew have completed numerous jobs for our family both in our home and in the home of my parents. His work is meticulous and artful. He converted an underutilized closet into a beautiful laundry station and in so doing sourced materials creatively and within our budget. Joe installed a gorgeous front door where there once was an ugly and drafty old wooden slab. As our home was built in the 1800s this required a bit of work retrofitting as there were no standard doorways back then. When he was done we were hard pressed to imagine another door in its place . He also replaced the rotting wood columns on our front porch with a more durable and long lasting PVC wrapped column. Joe climbed my parent’s roof to tar a leak when all the while I was worried that I was facing a costly roof replacement….problem solved! He also installed a grab bar in their bathroom (this was done without my asking but just because he knew it would be a great help for my mom) . I should note that he did these last two tasks out of pure kindness and at no cost to my folks (that’s the kind of guy he is). Finally, you will never have to chase Joe; he is responsive and communicative. I have absolutely no reservations recommending Joe and JFA Renovations.

JFA Renovations has completed several projects at our home over the past 6 years. Joe and his team completely renovated our raw 1901 unfinished basement into a safe, comfortable, spacious, enjoyable space for our family to enjoy. They updated our kitchen and porch areas, and Joe spearheaded a team that brought all of our electricity and plumbing systems up to code. Joe is the contractor who responds to all inquiries. He is the contractor who provides honest opinions. He is the contractor who shows integrity. His meticulous, precise work produces phenomenal results. We absolutely, wholeheartedly recommend Joe and his team at JFA Renovations.

Joe Ferraro and his team re-built our entire basement after we experienced a major water leak that caused massive damages. From start to finish, their professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail were truly exceptional. They communicated with us regularly, ensuring we were informed of the progress and any necessary adjustments. Their commitment to quality was evident in every aspect of their work, from the materials used to the meticulous craftsmanship. The end result was nothing short of spectacular. Our basement is beautifully finished and we are so happy that we used Joe to help us put back together our beautiful basement. We are extremely grateful to Joe and JFA Renovations for their hard work and dedication. If you’re looking for a reliable, skilled, and customer-focused company to handle your renovation needs, look no further than JFA Renovations. They truly are the best in the business.

Joe, Samantha and their crew have done a considerable amount of work at our home over the years (three bathrooms, a mud room, and a three-season room) and we could not be more pleased with all of the results. The crew at JFA renovations is wonderful. From the estimate, to the design, to the execution…everything was easy and flawless. The attention to detail (including the daily clean up!!!) is second to none. Samantha gave great advice throughout the design process and helped us pick out all of the materials and finishes and their recommendations turned out fabulous. All this, and on top of it all, they are genuinely kind people who will go above and beyond in their care for you and your home. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone I know and have done so many times already.
