The kitchen is considered the nucleus of the home. This is the space where you and your family start your day and end your day together. Meals are cooked with loving care and enjoyed around the dinner table and it’s the place where friends and family gather to make lifelong memories all year round. It’s also the central hub where homework gets finished and long talks about life’s most important decisions take place. Of course, it’s also where your favorite snacks and beverages are available any time of day or night.
With so many important events taking place here with guests and loved ones gathered around, it’s no wonder the kitchen is often the one room of the home that can make or break the decision of a potential homebuyer to submit an offer on a home for sale. You may not be planning to sell your house now or anytime in the future, but you don’t have to justify renovating your kitchen with an eye towards putting it up on the market.
Why not give yourself the dream kitchen you deserve for you to enjoy?
An out of date kitchen with damaged fixtures, faded cabinets, and outmoded appliances can put a strain on the look and feel for your home, reduce the property value, and impact the functionality and efficiency of the most important space in the home.

We work with you to build a three-dimensional rendering of your new kitchen taking into account all of your specifications, preferences, and other essential factors for realizing your specific vision of the perfect dream kitchen. This three-dimensional rendering will let you visualize how your kitchen will look when the project is finished. We want to make sure that you fall in love with your new kitchen from the first time you see it. If there is anything – and we mean anything – you wish to adjust, replace, swap out, or enhance in any way, it is imperative that you make your opinions known from the start.
Ask questions, offer ideas, tell us about any concerns you may be having during the design phase, because now is the time. Consider this part of the process your time to play and have fun. Try new things, indulge your wild side, and take aesthetic risks. These ideas may not make it to the final phase of the project, but it allows you to brainstorm your kitchen with full freedom of expression and imagination.
Your renovation project will be supervised by one of our highly-skilled and experienced project managers who will be your liaison throughout the process. This way you aren’t reliant upon multiple contractors and supervisors just to get a question answered or to change your mind about going with marble instead of quartzite for your countertops.
We do everything in-house and this brings your kitchen remodeling costs down while still providing you with the high quality materials and excellent craftsmanship that our customers have come to expect from us.
The design phase is finished once you sign off on the 3D rendering of your new kitchen. And now preparation of your kitchen renovation project begins.
The next stage of the kitchen renovation project starts with your NYC Kitchen and Bath project manager coming to your home, taking measurements and gathering all of the important data about the space where your kitchen currently exists. Keep asking questions, offering ideas, and consider any major changes to the renovation plan now. Maybe you want to add some extra storage space or shelving, perhaps you want to change the color of the cabinets, or you may have your heart set on adding more components that you weren’t sure about incorporating into the design before.
Once we take all of the measurements and apply your specifications to your kitchen renovation project, we update the 3D rendering of the space so you are able to explore the latest version of your new kitchen renovation including the cabinets, flooring, countertops, the backsplash, surfaces, fixtures, handles, all of it – from the major essentials to the tiny details.
If everything looks good and you love everything from the colors and patterns to the surfaces and materials that make up the project, then we are ready to proceed to the next phase of the project.
At this time, you will be requested to make an initial payment on the project and we will obtain all of the building and project materials needed for the project. We’ll schedule a date that is convenient for you to have our team come to the home and start construction on your brand new dream kitchen.
Important! If your home must be compliant with condominium board or HOA rules, you must ensure that your planned kitchen renovation does not violate any rules or regulations or if the plan must be approved by the board prior to the start of work. However, if you do not have to remain in compliance with any boards of homeowner associations, then we can proceed with the project, securing all necessary building materials and obtaining the necessary permits to start work on the project.
Constructing your new kitchen starts by removing and relocating your kitchen appliances. If they are all staying, they will be relocated and returned once the job is finished. If they are being replaced, they will be removed. After that, our crew starts the demolition portion of the construction phase, your countertops, fixtures, flooring, cabinets, everything that is being replaced is first taken out.
Walls are knocked down or repaired if needed, spaces made for any new windows that are being installed, and any electrical or plumbing systems are updated or converted in accordance with the project.
After the demolition portion is complete, we begin installation of your new kitchen components. Countertops and surfaces, cabinets, flooring, backsplash, new fixtures, whatever the project calls for using the 3D rendering as the model for your new kitchen.
Once construction is complete, the kitchen is painted and detailed with the final step of your appliances being returned and hooked up in the areas where they belong.
All you have to do now is enjoy your brand new dream kitchen.

While a kitchen renovation can yield a significant return on investment at anywhere from one third to one half of your spend, it’s important to know that an increase in home value relies on a variety of factors, such as the location of your property, the strength of the housing market at the time your property is on the market, the condition of your kitchen when the home is on the market, and other possible factors.
But you don’t have to perform a renovation simply because you plan to sell now or in the immediate future, you can renovate the kitchen for you and your family to enjoy instead of upgrading everything for a potential sale. You can enjoy the advantages of a modern, fully functional and efficient new kitchen for as long as you reside in your home.
Every NYC Kitchen and Bath renovation is covered against defects in labor with a one-year warranty. The building materials, appliances, and other components that are a part of the renovation project come with their own separate warranties. These will often vary as some of the warranties may last for one year, others may cover defects for five or more years, and some may offer a lifetime warranty against product or manufacturing defects for as long as you own them.
