  1. Vincent and his team did a BEAUTIFUL job restoring the front doors of our brownstone coop. It is an 1890 brownstone in Carroll Gardens with a beautiful wooden front door, which had been severely distressed over the years. Not only was it in desperate need of a refinish, but parts of the wood had been destroyed due to neglect, certain design details were missing completely, and the interior door had a hinge damaged beyond function. The result is an impeccable job, with the door fully repaired and restored to its original beauty, including the hardware replaced with new but original shiny brass – which Vincent also managed procuring.

    His team is highly reliable and professional, showed up each morning to work and cleaned up thoroughly when done. Very fair pricing, and amazing quality. Vincent is a pleasure to work with, kind and with high integrity, clearly possessing as deep of an expertise in this type of restoration as you could hope to find. Highly Recommend!!!

  2. When I saw Vincent Battiloro’s restoration work on the Internet, I said he is the one!

    I am happy I chose Vincent for the job!

    His devotion to quality and expertise for his wood working skill was amazing, a true artist.
    Interacting with Vincent and his workers was easy; he understood my concerns with our landmark building. Vincent is a sincere and respectable man.

    I truly recommend Vincent Battiloro.

  3. Vincent and his team greatly exceeded expectations in refinishing the arched double door on our 2 family brownstone coop in Park Slope. Our over hundred year old doors had fallen into a serious state of deterioration, subjected only to a very rough chipping off of flaking paint and black paint recoating 10 years before. Hinges on door were old and worn, leaving doors somewhat ajar and door hardware, locks and bolts, were likewise in semi dilapidated state, as was the carved archway side columns around the door.

    Vincent and his team painstakingly striped and sanded doors and adjoining woodwork to what appeared almost new condition, repairing and filing holes and areas of rot, as well as replacing, adding and/or restoring door bolts mail slot and kick panels, and insulation, truly bringing the doors back of life – and refinishing them exactly to our wishes based on photos we had taken of other doors in the neighborhood. Vincent’s helpers, one in particular who worked tirelessly through many freezing days in December in open air conditions, are extraordinarily skilled craftsmen. Their attention to every detail was truly impressive as was their willingness to go the extra mile every time, to address the unique problems of our very old doors, including misalignments, warping, and separations from door jams and associated air leaks that we had suffered with for many years.

    Throughout the project, Vincent stayed fully engaged and was always accessible, arriving on the scene to personally attend to on the spot decision making and pitching in directly in the oversight or performance of difficult or problematic tasks. Vincent also provided critical help in our decision making on door hardware purchases and installation, coordinating with the excellent locksmith with whom he routinely works to bring the whole project, down to the placement of a new house number plate on the building, to a successful and very satisfying conclusion.

    One of the best investment ever made by the coop. Doors now perhaps good for the next hundred years.

  4. Vincent and his crew exceeded all my expectations ! I had a serious door problem in the historic district of Cobble Hill. The brownstone facade was completely redone with all of the detail. Now the double doors at the top of the stoop looked worse than ever and were falling apart. Vincent and his guys brought the doors and the entire surround back to their original grandeur. His crew was neat and courteous and Vincent was a pleasure to deal with. They knew exactly what to do and how to do it.
    Thank you for a great job.

  5. Vincent replaced the solid oak panels on my front door with glass. He did a fantastic job and I’m kicking myself that I didn’t do this earlier. The entry way is so much lighter, the existing wood has been beautifully spiffed up, and it was as painless as construction can be. His crew was so nice I actually enjoyed having them around.
    I fully expect to use him again.

  6. Hello,
    I would like to share my experience with Vincent and his team.
    I hired Vincent to restore both sets of doors at my coop building.
    This was a big job, I don’t think our doors had ever been touched beyond their original installation. We even debated replacing the doors with brand new ones instead of restoring.
    Vincent talked me out of that. He is very passionate about his work and keeping original details whenever possible. He assured me they would be just like new when he was finished. He was so right! The doors are absolutely beautiful and just like new.
    His team was always on time and always professional. Easy to talk to and very friendly.
    I highly recommend Vincent and his team. You will not be disappointed.
