Our Story
"To us, you're not just a client; you're part of our extended family."
Guy DiNapoli spent decades building in New York City — commercial construction, where schedules are unforgiving, inspectors don't negotiate, and the building either passes or it doesn't.
In 2020 he started Essential Builders in Elmsford with his sons Joseph and Steven — father and sons on the same jobs, taking on commercial build-outs and residential work across New York, Connecticut, New Jersey, and Florida with the same rigor either way.
Then clients started asking who could clean up after the work was done. Now the family does — Essential Cleaners, run by Angela DiNapoli, Guy's wife, out of the same Elmsford shop. When a builder cleans up after builders, the standard is different.
Between them, the DiNapolis carry 65+ years of construction experience. The company is young; the hands are not.

Why it matters
Commercial habits, on every job.
Paperwork handled
Commercial work runs on permits and sign-offs. We bring that turnkey habit to everything — from design through construction to the final Certificate of Occupancy.
A family answers the phone
No call center, no account manager. The people who own the company are the people on your project, and they're who you talk to.
Built, then cleaned
With Essential Cleaners in the family, the job ends the way it should: finished, cleaned, and ready to hand over — one accountable crew end to end.
