General Contracting & Home Renovations in Brooklyn, NY
Brownstone renovations and gut jobs in a borough where every block has its own permit rules.
Get a free quoteBrooklyn's housing stock runs old and narrow: limestone and brownstone row houses from the 1890s through the 1920s in Park Slope and Bed-Stuy, wood frame houses in Bensonhurst and Bay Ridge, converted industrial buildings near the waterfront in Williamsburg and Sunset Park. Shared party walls and zero side yards mean any structural change touches the building next door, and landmark districts like Fort Greene and Cobble Hill add a layer of approval before exterior work even starts.
Most renovation work here means opening up chopped up floor plans, digging cellars for extra headroom, and replacing plumbing and knob and tube wiring that predates the block's own paperwork. DOB filings move slower in landmarked sections, so scheduling has to account for that from day one.

What Brooklyn calls us for
Kitchen Remodeling
Galley kitchens original to brownstone floor plans usually need a load bearing wall addressed before they can open up.
Bathroom Remodeling
Cast iron stacks and old shutoff valves common in pre-1930s buildings often surface once tile comes off the wall.
General Contracting
Landmark district rules in parts of Brooklyn change what can be touched on a facade or front stoop.
