FR Review:
Hot with Manhattan’s smart set, this busy contractor is a professional’s professional. Having evolved from high-caliber millworker to top-gun GC over the course of 27 years, Steve Mark of SMI specializes in significant townhouse rehabs and apartment renovations. The firm also offers construction management services and does its own tiling, plastering and general carpentry, all of which adds to the efficient big picture.

Mark, a “rare talent,” has produced superb service since 1977. Clients admire Mark as a “straight shooter” who’s dedicated to getting every detail perfectly right. They say that he and his crew and “exceptional” subcontracts deliver a level of finished product above expectations, even given the high price. Ten jobs are undertaken at one time, primarily on the Upper East and Upper West Sides, with budgets from $1 million to upwards of $35 million.

Representative Client Comments:
“In a league of his own.” “Only if you want the top–Steve is a cut above the rest,” “By far they are the best contractors–no one like them.” “Steve is a finisher. He never leaves anything halfway.” “We sent out six bid packages. Only two contractors bothered to respond in any detail. Steve Marks was at the apartment the next morning with six subcontractors to make sure the numbers in his bid would be accurate.”

SMI was an absolute pleasure to work with. The quality of the work is top notch and they made the process of such a large renovation stress free and best of all it was all on schedule. The outcome is an absolutely gorgeous loft in Tribeca with stunning details that are all perfectly executed.
