A.O.K. Contraction, LLC is your
neighborhood General Contractor. Your home is our home. We work by one
standard “To produce quality year after year”. Below find
out how it all started...
I have lived in Orange and Sullivan Counties for more then 35 years. I
now reside in Wurtsboro, N.Y. with my
wonderful fiancé and son.
It all started In 1987 when I owned an operated a small business inside a gym in Sullivan
County. My business included selling clothing and health food related items.
In addition I also worked for
the owners of the Gym as a personal trainer for new members along with
some private training sessions.
I did this for a couple of years and in 1989 one of the people I was
training mentioned he was in construction and ran a framing crew in Rockland
County. I told him as a kid I worked mostly doing labor related things
around construction and new my way around a job site... On the spot he
offered me a job to learn about framing. After a day of thinking about
it I took him up on his offer so I could earn some extra money. I did this
for about a month and it felt great. So a short time later I decided to
leave the gym, & pursue the construction.
I work framing homes, additions and all types of things for a short time
while traveling form Sullivan to Rockland County. I moved to Pine Bush
a short time later to ease the commute and worked with this company for a year and a half.
During this time I also picked up some side work and as time went on
people I would work for would say to me, "it’s so hard to find a
dependable contractor and you should do this full time!!" Well we all know the customer is
always right so I took a chance and in 1991, A.O.K. Construction was
born.
The name of my business has an interesting origin. The A.O.K. are
Initials & not the catchy phrase A - OK as most people first think. The
letter A is from my Grandfather name Alexander, the O is from my then
wife’s Grandfather Otto and the K is from my last name Karpinsky. A
short time later I added the logo of the hand as it was a good fit.
Well it’s been 15 years now and A.O.K. Construction, LLC has severed more
then 2,500 customers and as a result we have become a trusted name among
home and business owners. I look forward to serving more of my
neighbors in the Hudson Valley for many more years to come!!!
Thank you All, Greg D. Karpinsky, President |
