The Schenectady, NY Construction Company Built On Trust, Craftsmanship, and 24/7 Reliability
Apollo Brothers Contracting LLC has earned a reputation across Schenectady, NY and the greater Capital Region as a construction company and general contractor that homeowners can actually count on. We answer the phone when others send it to voicemail. We show up on the day we said we would. We give a fixed, honest price before a single nail is driven. And we treat every Schenectady home — whether it's a Stockade Victorian, a Bellevue ranch, a Mont Pleasant bungalow, a GE Realty Plot center-hall colonial, or a new Niskayuna split-level — the way we'd treat our own family's home. That is the standard our family business was built on, and it is the standard we hold every member of our crew to, every single day, on every single job site.
Choosing a contractor in Schenectady can be intimidating. The wrong choice costs you months of frustration, thousands of dollars in change orders, and sometimes a permit headache with the City of Schenectady or the Town of Niskayuna that lingers long after the contractor has moved on. We exist to make that decision easy. Apollo Brothers is fully licensed in the State of New York, carries general liability and workers' compensation insurance well above the minimums, pulls every permit in our own name (never the homeowner's), and stands behind every project we complete with a warranty depending on the job. We are members in good standing of the Schenectady, NY business community and we work with the same suppliers, lumberyards, plumbing supply houses, and tile distributors that the best builders in the Capital Region have trusted for decades.
What truly sets Apollo Brothers Contracting LLC apart is the people. Our crews are not day-laborers we pulled off Craigslist last week. They are tradespeople with years of experience in framing, plumbing, tile, drywall, painting, deck building, and finish carpentry. They are background-checked, drug-free, uniformed, and trained to communicate clearly with you every day they are inside your home. When an Apollo Brothers truck is parked in your Schenectady driveway, you can be sure the person stepping out of it is exactly the kind of professional you want walking through your front door — polite, respectful of your space, careful with your floors and furniture, and serious about the craft.
One Schenectady, NY Construction Company For Every Project In Your Home
Apollo Brothers Contracting LLC operates as a true full-service general contractor and construction company for Schenectady, NY and the Capital Region. We self-perform the core trades — framing, plumbing, water heater installation, drywall, painting, deck building, tile, and finish carpentry — under one roof, with one crew, on one schedule. This is a huge difference from contractors who subcontract everything and disappear between phases. With Apollo Brothers, there is one phone number, one project manager, and one company accountable for the result. If a question comes up about how the new bathroom plumbing ties into the kitchen remodel, the same team has the answer. If your deck builder needs to coordinate with your painter for trim color, they already work together.
Plumbing and water heater installation in Schenectady, NY is one of our specialties. We install tank, tankless, gas, and electric water heaters across the Capital Region — usually the same day you call. We stock the most common 40-gallon, 50-gallon, and 75-gallon units, plus a range of tankless models from Rinnai and Navien. Our licensed plumbers handle the full job: drain and remove the old unit, set the new one, vent it to code, fill it, fire it, and pressure-test for leaks. We register your manufacturer warranty, haul away the old tank, and leave the mechanical room cleaner than we found it. We also handle pipe repair, slab leaks, fixture replacement, drain cleaning, sewer line repair, sump pump installation, and full repipes in older Schenectady homes whose galvanized steel piping has reached the end of its life.
Kitchen remodeling in Schenectady is where many of our long-term relationships start. A kitchen remodel touches every trade in the house — demolition, framing, plumbing, electrical, cabinetry, countertops, tile backsplash, flooring, lighting, painting, and finish carpentry — and homeowners are right to want one accountable contractor running the entire show. Our crews have completed kitchens from quick refresh-style projects (cabinet painting, new hardware, fresh countertops and backsplash) all the way up to full gut-and-rebuild renovations with structural wall removals and brand-new layouts. We work with quartz, granite, butcher block, and high-end laminate counters; semi-custom and full-custom cabinetry from suppliers we have personal relationships with; and a wide range of tile and LVP flooring from Capital Region distributors.
Bathroom remodeling in Schenectady is another area where Apollo Brothers brings deep technical know-how. A bathroom that is not waterproofed correctly is a leak waiting to happen — and a leak inside a wall or under a tile floor is one of the most expensive repairs in residential construction. We build our showers using modern membrane and pre-slope systems, vent fans correctly to the exterior, use moisture-rated drywall and backer board everywhere it belongs, and pressure-test every plumbing connection before we close up the walls. Walk-in showers, curbless showers, tile tub surrounds, heated floors, freestanding tubs, and double-vanity master bathrooms are all in our wheelhouse.
Deck building, additions, and exterior construction round out our services. As an established deck builder serving Schenectady, NY, we build pressure-treated, cedar, and composite decks (TimberTech, Trex, Fiberon) ranging from simple back-door platforms to multi-level wrap-arounds with built-in seating, pergolas, and custom railing systems in wood, metal, and cable. We pull town building permits, dig and pour code-compliant footings, and pass every inspection from initial footing to final. For larger work — second-story additions, accessory dwelling units, and full restorations — Apollo Brothers acts as the licensed general contractor on the project from architectural drawings and town approvals all the way through final certificate of occupancy.
Local Schenectady, NY Construction & Plumbing — Every Neighborhood, Every ZIP Code
Apollo Brothers Contracting LLC is based in Schenectady, NY at 1025 University Pl Apt 3 — right in the heart of the city. That means we are minutes away from nearly every neighborhood we serve, and we know the housing stock intimately. The Stockade Historic District is home to some of the oldest standing residential architecture in the United States, and renovation work in the Stockade requires a contractor who understands historic preservation, plaster walls, original millwork, and the City of Schenectady's historic district review requirements. We have completed sensitive interior renovations, kitchen and bathroom upgrades, and plumbing repipes in Stockade homes without compromising the historic character that makes those properties so valuable.
In the GE Realty Plot, the early-20th-century center-hall colonials, Tudor revivals, and Dutch colonials demand a contractor with a finish-carpentry eye and a respect for original detailing. Our work in the Realty Plot has included custom built-ins matched to existing trim profiles, kitchen remodels that preserve the formality of the original floor plans, and additions that read as if they were always there. In Bellevue, Mont Pleasant, Hamilton Hill, Upper Union, Woodlawn, Goose Hill, Vale, and the Eastern Avenue corridor, we work on the full range of Schenectady's classic single-family housing — bungalows, capes, ranches, foursquares, and post-war split-levels.
Beyond the city limits, Apollo Brothers serves homeowners across Niskayuna, Rotterdam, Scotia, Glenville, Gloversville, Duanesburg, Princetown, and Schenectady County as a whole. We are equally comfortable in a 1950s Niskayuna split-level with a finished basement remodel project, a Rotterdam ranch needing a new kitchen and primary bath, a Scotia colonial getting a back deck and three-season porch, or a Glenville cape needing a roof, siding, and full exterior repaint. We also work throughout Albany County and Saratoga County — Albany, Colonie, Latham, Loudonville, Delmar, Clifton Park, Halfmoon, and Saratoga Springs — and we are happy to give free in-home estimates anywhere we serve.
How Apollo Brothers Contracting Runs A Schenectady Project
Every project we run in Schenectady, NY follows the same four-step process so you always know what comes next. Step one is a free in-home consultation. A real Apollo Brothers project manager — never a commission-only salesperson — comes to your home, walks the space with you, listens to your goals, takes measurements and photos, and talks through realistic budget ranges before leaving. We will give you an honest answer about whether the project we are discussing actually makes sense for the value of your Schenectady home and your timeline.
Step two is a fixed-price written quote. We do not work on vague time-and-materials handshakes that balloon into change-order nightmares. Every Apollo Brothers project starts with a written, line-itemized, fixed-price quote that includes the full scope of work, the materials and finishes we will be using, the schedule with start and completion dates, the permit fees, and the payment milestones. You will know exactly what you are buying and exactly what it costs before you sign anything.
Step three is the build. Our crews start when we said they would start, show up daily, communicate progress with you in person and through text or email, contain dust and debris, vacuum and sweep at the end of every day, and treat your home like the investment it is. Your project manager checks in regularly, handles every inspection with the City of Schenectady or your local town, and resolves any unexpected discovery (a hidden plumbing issue, a piece of rotten subfloor) with a clear written change-order — never a surprise on the final invoice. Step four is the final walk-through and warranty closeout. We walk every surface of the finished project with you, capture a punch list of anything that needs touch-up, complete that punch list quickly, hand over the warranty details for your job and any manufacturer paperwork, and apply your free gift card reward from the Apollo Rewards Program.
Quality Materials, Professional Brands, And Warranty Depending On The Job
The materials we install in your Schenectady home are the same materials we would install in our own. For plumbing fixtures we work with Moen, Delta, Kohler, American Standard, and Pfister. For water heaters we install Bradford White, Rheem, A.O. Smith, Rinnai, and Navien. For paint we recommend Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore exterior and interior lines — never builder-grade paint that fades and chalks in two seasons of Upstate New York weather. For decking we install TimberTech, Trex, and Fiberon composite systems alongside premium pressure-treated and western red cedar lumber. For tile, cabinetry, and countertops we work with Capital Region suppliers whose product lines we know inside and out so we can tell you honestly which choices hold up and which do not.
Warranty depending on the job — every project is different, so the exact warranty coverage is outlined in your written contract based on the scope of work. Manufacturer warranties still apply to the products we install, and we always stand behind our craftsmanship. If something we installed fails because of our workmanship within the agreed warranty window, we come back and fix it — at no charge, no argument, no run-around. That promise is part of the contract you sign, not a verbal handshake. It is the same promise that has earned us a 4.9-star rating on Google from Schenectady homeowners, and it is the reason so much of our work comes from referrals and repeat customers across Niskayuna, Rotterdam, Scotia, Glenville, Gloversville, Albany, Colonie, Latham, Clifton Park, and Saratoga Springs.
Free Gift Cards And Honest Pricing
Every Schenectady homeowner who completes a project with Apollo Brothers Contracting LLC qualifies for our free Apollo Rewards Program. The reward is a tiered gift card sent to you at project completion — ranging from a $20 thank-you for smaller repairs all the way up to a $600 reward on larger remodels and additions. There are no codes to enter, no rebates to mail in, no fine-print loyalty signups. If you do the project, you get the reward — period. This is our way of thanking the Schenectady, Niskayuna, Rotterdam, Scotia, Glenville, and Capital Region homeowners who have built this company through their trust and their word-of-mouth referrals.
