Kitchen Remodeling in NYC, Westchester and Nassau County

The kitchen is the room most people want to change first, and it is also the most complex room to renovate. Cabinets, plumbing, gas, electrical, ventilation, stone, tile and appliances all have to come together in the right order. Dacaj Construction manages every trade under one contract, so you get a kitchen that looks beautiful and works the way you cook and live.

Since 2006, our family-owned team has remodeled kitchens in Manhattan co-ops, Brooklyn brownstones, Westchester homes and Nassau County houses. Whether you are updating finishes or completely reworking the layout, we bring the same attention to detail.

Apartment Kitchens in NYC Co-ops and Condos

Renovating a kitchen in a New York City apartment means working within building rules. Your board may need to approve drawings, your managing agent will require a certificate of insurance, and many buildings limit where sinks and appliances can be relocated. Venting a range hood to the exterior may not be allowed at all.

We handle these details every day. We review your building's alteration agreement early, work with your architect on plans that will get approved, and schedule deliveries and work around your building's approved hours. Getting a large slab of stone into an elevator or up a stairwell takes planning, and we plan for it.

Kitchens for Homes in Westchester and Nassau County

In a house, you often have more freedom to move walls, add windows, extend plumbing and create the open layout you want. We remodel kitchens in single-family homes across Westchester County and Nassau County, including projects that combine a new kitchen with a family room, mudroom or home addition. Our team handles permits with your town when the scope requires them.

Our Kitchen Remodeling Process

  1. Consultation. We visit your home, measure the space and talk about how you use your kitchen, what you want to change and your budget.
  2. Design and selections. We work with your designer or architect, or guide you through cabinets, counters, tile and fixtures ourselves. While we are not interior designers, we give practical advice on materials, finishes and layout.
  3. Detailed proposal. You receive an itemized proposal and a realistic timeline, including cabinet and stone lead times.
  4. Construction. Our crew protects the rest of your home, keeps dust under control and gives you regular updates from demolition through installation.
  5. Final walkthrough. We review every detail with you and complete any punch list items before we call the job finished.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a kitchen remodel take?

Construction for most kitchens takes several weeks, depending on scope. Cabinet and countertop lead times can add time before construction starts, so we plan orders early. In co-ops and condos, board approval also needs to happen before work begins.

How much does a kitchen remodel cost in NYC?

Cost depends on size, layout changes, cabinetry and finishes. We explain the main cost drivers in our NYC kitchen renovation cost guide, and we provide an itemized proposal after visiting your space.

Can I move my sink or stove in a co-op kitchen?

It depends on your building. Many buildings restrict relocating plumbing and gas, and some enforce a wet over dry rule. We review your building's rules before design so there are no surprises.

Do I need to move out during the renovation?

Most clients stay in their home during a kitchen remodel. We seal off the work area and keep the rest of your home clean. For larger apartment renovations, some clients choose to stay elsewhere.
