Why Us
How Contractor Licensing Works Here
Many homeowners assume New York licenses contractors statewide. It does not: New York has no statewide general-contractor or home-improvement license; contractor licensing is local. In Westchester, Westchester County licenses home improvement contractors through its Department of Consumer Protection, and operating without that county license is a violation of county law. On top of that, plumbing and electrical licensing is also handled locally.
So before you hire anyone, ask for the county license number and check it with the county, ask who the licensed plumber and electrician are, and ask who files the permit with the City of Yonkers Department of Housing and Buildings. You should get clear answers in writing.

Kitchens in a City of Hills and Prewar Homes
Yonkers is known as the City of Seven Hills, and its housing is as varied as its streets. You will hear the word prewar often here, and in an older home it can mean plaster walls, a narrow galley kitchen, and older wiring that was never meant for a modern appliance load. Opening a wall in an older kitchen calls for care and a realistic contingency.
We work in Park Hill, Crestwood, Ludlow, and across the city. Whatever the house, the work follows the same order: demolition, rough-in for plumbing and electrical while walls are open, drywall and paint, cabinets, countertop templating and installation, backsplash, flooring, and appliance hookup.
Cabinets normally go in before the floor, which protects new flooring and saves material under cabinets. Large-format tile and some hardwood are exceptions, laid first when you want a seamless floor. We decide that with you at the design stage.

What Your Estimate Covers
Each estimate lists the scope, cabinet and counter selections, which licensed trades handle which work, whether a permit is needed, and a schedule from demolition to walkthrough. Cabinets have the longest lead time, so we order them early and keep demolition close to delivery so your kitchen is out of service for as short a time as possible. Payments follow progress.
Designed for How You Cook
Before we draw anything, we ask how the kitchen gets used. Who cooks, and how often? Do people gather around the counter while dinner is made? Is there a place for mail, chargers, and school bags, or does it all land on the counter? Is there enough light where you chop? Those answers shape the layout far more than any catalog photo. A small galley kitchen may need smarter storage and better light more than a new footprint, and we will tell you so.
Common Questions
Kitchen Remodeling Questions
How much does kitchen remodeling cost?
Scope drives it: refacing or new counters cost a fraction of a full remodel with a new layout. Moving plumbing, gas, or wiring adds permit work with the City of Yonkers Department of Housing and Buildings. You get a written number after the consultation.
When remodeling a kitchen, what comes first?
Design and ordering, then demolition, rough-in while walls are open, inspection by the City of Yonkers Department of Housing and Buildings, drywall and paint, cabinets, countertop templating and install, backsplash, flooring, and hookups.
How do I choose a kitchen remodeling contractor?
Because New York has no statewide general-contractor or home-improvement license; contractor licensing is local, ask for the county license: Westchester County licenses home improvement contractors through its Department of Consumer Protection, and operating without that county license is a violation of county law. Also ask for references, a written scope, and a payment schedule tied to milestones.
Does remodeling a kitchen increase home value?
Directionally, yes; kitchens are consistently among the most valued rooms. Over-building past the neighborhood rarely pays back, so we match the finish level to the home.
