Its own website describes work from custom residential homes to commercial builds. It holds a BBB grade of A+ and 4.7 stars from 13 Google ratings. A 2025 customer said the company remodeled a very old home, updating it while keeping its character, and that the company was handling the Planning and Zoning process on a second project.

A 2025 reviewer said Sylvester Pecora helped them through pool permits and got the job done quickly.
