Kitchen Remodeling in Harlem

Harlem brownstones have the best kitchen opportunity in the city: a deep rear room that can open to the garden and become the center of the house. We rebuild those rooms end to end, from framing to final hardware.

Harlem kitchen remodeling FAQs

Do you remodel kitchens in rental units?

Yes. We do owner-occupied kitchens and turnover units, and we can phase them to limit vacancy.

Can you open the rear wall to the yard?

In most rowhouses, yes. It needs a structural engineer and a DOB filing, both included in our scope.

What does a Harlem brownstone kitchen cost?

Most fall between $50,000 and $120,000; opening the rear wall adds roughly $25,000 to $45,000.
