Remodeling in Manhattan can feel like a lot of work. There are co-op boards to please, tiny elevators to schedule, and strict city rules to follow. You do not have to worry about any of that. We are licensed, fully insured experts who do this every single day. We protect your home, talk to your building managers, and make sure your project is smooth from start to finish.

Your Questions Answered Clearly
Simple, honest answers about remodeling your Manhattan apartment. Click a question to open the answer window.
Yes, if you are moving things around. If your renovation shifts water lines, gas connections, or electrical boxes, the city Department of Buildings requires a permit. This is called an Alteration Type-2 filing.
If you are just doing a cosmetic swap—like putting in new cabinets or tiles right where the old ones were—you usually do not need city permits. Either way, our professional team handles all the paperwork for you.
Yes, it restricts where you can put new sinks or toilets. Most co-op and condo boards in Manhattan will not let you build a kitchen or bathroom directly over a neighbor’s bedroom or living room below.
This rule protects apartments from water leak damage. Our architectural designers know exactly how to work inside your building’s existing plumbing spaces to give you a gorgeous layout without breaking the rules.
Yes, absolutely. We carry $5,000,000 to $10,000,000 in full liability insurance and full workers’ compensation coverage. This meets or exceeds what the strictest luxury buildings in Manhattan ask for. We will email the proper insurance certificates (COIs) directly to your super before we start.
We use heavy plastic zip-walls to close off active work zones completely and block your vents so dust cannot travel. Our team sands walls exclusively using advanced dustless tools with HEPA filters. We also run commercial air scrubbers non-stop on site to keep your home’s air clean, safe, and breathable.
Yes, we are historical experts. If your townhouse or building is in an official landmark zone, any exterior look changes must be approved by the city Landmarks Preservation Commission. Our office coordinates these filings directly, matches original historic colors, and sources identical material structures to ensure full compliance.
