There were a couple of change orders and issues that arose but were promptly taken care of. I get compliments all the time in mybhome now and couldnt be happier.

Doug, our project mgr. was very pleasant to deal with and accommodated us whenever, wherever possible. He delegated and orchestrated the entire project efficiently and expeditiously given the unexpected hurdles and obstacles thrown his way. We were very fortunate to have him as our project manager after retaining Ambassador Home Improvements for the job. Employees; Sunil, Sinbad, Annen, José were very nice and considerate throughout the phases. They have top-notch siding guys, plumbers, electric personnel, etc. The approval process proved a breeze, too, because of Doug's excellent coordination. More...

Gary and his team at Ambassador Home Improvement were everything we wanted in a contracting company. With both my husband and I working full time with two small children to take care of, we wanted a company that not only did a good job, but were easy to reach, returned phone calls, addressed concerns, and finished in a timely fashion. That’s exactly what we got. We never felt like they were too busy with other jobs to pay attention to us. Our project manager Joe was great. I spoke with him daily and he worked with us tirelessly. Kathie and Michele at the main office helped out with all the finances and administrative concerns and were extremely helpful. I honestly would not hesitate should the need arise to use them again. I know If I ever need help I can just pick up the phone and call Gary and joe and they will be there. More...

We contacted Ambassador on the guidance of our architect, on a whole-house renovation project in Plainview. During our bidding process, we included our longtime contractor, another smaller firm and Ambassador. Ambassador’s bid was competitive in this phase, and their reputation and warranty won out over the others. As we have a split-level, we needed a team with experience for a project of this scale and able to manage the complexity of the town codes. Gary, Doug and team had that experience and backed it up with a customer first approach, supporting any questions or concerns, change order considerations with a great consultative mindset—guiding our decisions that came up along the way with options and recommendations that eased the challenge of taking on a big renovation project.In the end, we more than doubled our square footage—and ended up with a well constructed and finished property in eight months. We extended our foundation on two sides, and added an attached garage and outdoor living spaces while extending existing basement and den spaces significantly. Gary and his team (Doug was our project lead) were great throughout the project, giving clear guidance on all stages of the project, from demo, tradesmen management, and final inspection. We were given great advice on additional projects that happen during long term projects; for example, we were able to leverage existing cabinetry in the basement, adding storage with a nice finished look, and closet space to help structure a very large open flow space. They were also extremely responsive during all phases — you will never feel like a number with this team. I highly recommend them, and have contracted them for additional projects, and will continue to do so in the coming years. They have my trust as a homeowner here in Plainview in perpetuity. More...

So after meeting with several contractors, my wife and I felt very comfortable with Ambassador, despite them being the most expensive. We felt they understood our vision for a custom basement so we engaged Ambassador for our project. The work was very good and we were very pleased with the outcome as it aligned with our expectations. Were there hiccups along the way? Sure, but we felt that was par for the course when dealing with home improvement contractors. We ended up with a beautiful basement and everyone is quick to notice the high-end work, materials, and craftsmanship. Dan and Doug were also great to work with. While all of this sounds like a five-star rating is warranted, it is the post-project communication and service that warrants a three-star rating. To be honest, it’s been frustrating to get Ambassador’s third-party contractors to come back and service issues that have arisen within a year of project completion. Ambassador offers a lifetime guarantee on their work, but I’m not sure how much value I would put on that considering the lack of responsiveness and service post-project. It’s a shame that we have to accept a beautifully done basement is just short of perfect. I’ve been waiting weeks and months for people to come back and adjust cabinet doors, tighten a leaky pipe in the bathroom, and service the ductless units so at this point, I feel like we will have to accept these imperfections or hire someone else to resolve these issues.Overall, great work and great outcome, but post-project communication and service was really poorly handled.This is an update to my earlier 3-star review above...Gary the owner had acknowledged my concerns and reached out directly to address the post-project issues that I had experienced above. You can tell Gary is passionate about his business and cares deeply about his customers and their satisfaction. He reached out to me immediately while he was away on vacation with his family to let me know that he will take care of any outstanding items. As soon as he was back in town, he stopped over to gather feedback on how him and his team could improve. I was actually shocked by this as I didn't expect to hear anything after I had posted my initial review. Needless to say, Gary took care of everything quickly and treated me like an important client and made it a point to let me know that he will do whatever it takes to make me a forever client. Gary's attentiveness and client care is worthy of a 5-star review. I will absolutely consider Ambassador again for any future home improvement projects, large or small. More...

A few years ago, Ambassador resided my house and built a portico. Gary and his staff did an excellent job - I'm still getting compliments. Since we decided to do some inside renovations, there was no question in our minds who to call. We met with Gary twice and he covered exactly what was required in doing an open concept living and dining room. This job involved removing walls and installing ceiling beams, window installation, flooring, etc. Liking what we discussed, Gary measured and ordered steel/material. A week before job was to start, my husband came down with some medical issues which caused us to cancel the renovation with no new date in sight. Thank goodness Gary is a compassionate and professional businessman. He totally understood our situation. Regardless of the fact that he already received material, he took no money and relieved us with no penalty! All I can say, he cares about maintaining a client relationship, which is hard to find these days, as well as producing high quality of work. I hope my next review will be about the fantastic renovation by Ambassador. More...

Dear Gary,

I hope all is well.

My apologies for this long overdue note but I truly wanted to express my gratitude to you and your organization. As you are aware, we contracted with Ambassador to build our home and it turned out to be the best decision we ever made. Going into this enormous project Pat and I had no Idea what to expect and your guidance, caring and professionalism proved to be just what we needed. You helped us in every way possible – from discussions with the architect, creative and thoughtful suggestions (i.e. large glass doors in dining room awesome idea), dealing with the town, recommending vendors and much more.

As we came to know you and your staff, we realized we were dealing with a top rate organization - extremely talented, knowledgeable and trustworthy individuals (btw Doug is Amazing!). But what really convinced me that Ambassador was best in class – execution! The professional manner and attention to detail that everyone displayed throughout the project was simply stellar. The high standards and accountability you demand of your employees was on display every day throughout the project. Most impressive was 2 years post project you honored your commitment and addressed any issues.

The end result was a stunning home that my family and I enjoy every day – and I thank you!

Thanks again!

I used Ambassador Home Improvement for my renovation or rather transformation from a small ranch to a large colonial home. From start to finish I couldn’t have been happier with the decision.

It was nice to have the owner of the company walk you through the process.

My project manager Doug was also great. He was constantly updating me on the status of the project and always on the ball. (And the company was right on the money in terms of timing and completion).

All of their employees were very clean and organized and extremely knowledgeable. I highly reccomend the team we used to do your future project. Gary has assembled a great team who will go above and beyond to make the home you desire. More...

We used Ambassador home improvement for a kitchen and bathroom renovation. We chose Ambassador based on positive reviews and positive interactions with their employees and project manager. The job went smoothly and all ambassador employees were very responsive and reachable to address any concerns and questions. All workers and trade staff who worked in my home were respectful, neat and a pleasure to work with. I am very pleased with the outcome of the overall project and outcome of the job. I would use ambassador again and recommend them to anyone seeking to renovate their home. A home renovation is a large undertaking that is disruptive and can be messy but ambassador made this bearable! More...

After interviewing 4 different contractors, we decided to go with Ambassador to do our project addition for our new home. We did thorough research and with the great reputation they had with numerous referrals we made the best possible decision we could have made .

We recently purchased a ranch and decided to redo the first floor and add a second story on top.

We specifically requested Doug to be our project manager after hearing AMAZING reviews from others that had him for similar projects. I capitalize amazing because that is truly what he is. He is responsive at all times, including after hours and weekends. He continuously is updating you on what’s going on with the project at all times.

The trades were very neat and professional. They make you feel very comfortable being in and out of your home all the time.

They stuck to schedule and the contract was on point for what was listed out with no hidden fees. That is very important and came up from time to time with other referrals that we met with for other companies (mostly smaller guys)

We checked up on the house every day (highly recommend doing so) and the materials that were used were impressive to the eyes of those that came in and knew the business. Any time we had a question on something Doug would clarify right away and help us with whatever questions we had

In closing, Ambassador by far and away was the right choice. When it comes to larger projects there will always be occasional speedbumps, what’s important is having the right people in place to help during these times. Some smaller companies or untrustworthy companies will walk off a job or disappear when things go south. Doug was there every step of the way and I couldn’t say enough great things. He single handily made this process easier on my family and I. I was very nervous about this entire job but with the great referrals we received and confidence I had walking into the Ambassador office I knew I was making the right choice.

Feel free to reach out to me directly if you have any further questions. More...

We did a total house renovation in our 3500sq foot house with Ambassador. Everything came out beautiful. Every part of our home inside and out was renovated. Our project manager Doug was amazing. He was so attentive and responsive to us through our entire process. Living through the renovation was challenging but Doug made sure the Workman were always tidy and respectful of our space as we were living in our home throughout the Renovation. I would totally recommend hiring Ambassador and of course having Doug as the Project Manager. Gary the owner was wonderful as well. No matter what your visions, Gary will find a way to make happen for you. More...
