Renovation Services in Jersey City

We focus on full renovations and additions in older Jersey City homes, plus the kitchen, bath and layout work that goes along with them. Every job is priced from a defined scope, and one team builds it.

Primary Services

Full Home Renovations

Everything from targeted upgrades to complete gut renovations, from demo through final inspection. Most of these jobs are about how the house works, not just new finishes. We coordinate the structure, mechanicals, permits and finishes as one job.

Structural changes

Layout reconfiguration

New plumbing, electrical and HVAC

Finish carpentry, tile and millwork

Home Additions

Rear additions, extra floors and bump-outs. The hard part is where new meets old, so we check the drawings for buildability and cost before you commit to the addition.

Foundation and structural tie-ins

Framing and roof integration

Matching interior and exterior finishes
