Home Renovation & Remodeling in New York. 4 Stars And Up

“Monks just finished my kitchen renovation. I can’t say enough wonderful things about this company. A+ workmanship! Everyone from the initial meeting, the design process, all of the contractors and the implementation of the project was excellent! Thank you Bill, Cortney, Ward and the entire Monks Team! I’m thrilled with everything! I highly recommend this wonderful company!!”

“Project: Apartment Combination & Gut Renovation (150 W 79th St) Timeline: May 19th – Nov 14th We hired KBR Design & Build for a pretty massive undertaking—combining units into a single 1,200 SF home. If you've ever dealt with NYC co-ops or pre-war buildings, you know how stressful this can be, but Noam and Yosi have a really solid operation. The biggest thing for us was the peace of mind. KBR is a well-established company with an actual, permanently staffed office. Knowing that Eleena (Project Coordinator) was there during business hours to handle the logistics, and that we weren't just chasing a contractor on a cell phone, was huge. They’re clearly in this for the long haul. Our Project Manager, Will, was the one making it happen on the ground. He managed a very technical scope, including: Full MEP Overhaul: They didn't just move things around; they did a complete mechanical, electrical, and plumbing update. This included a new multi-zone HVAC system, Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV), two new electrical load centers with all new branch circuits, and all new sanitary piping in the cinder concrete slab. Complex Flooring: We did hardwood throughout the whole place, and they were diligent about the subfloor acoustic underlayment, which was a strict requirement for our building. Superintendent Coordination: Will was great at working with our building super to keep things moving and ensure we stayed in compliance with all site protections. Michelle also did a great job helping us bridge the design gap between the two units so the final result felt like one cohesive home. If you want a team that can handle the high-stakes technical side of a Manhattan combination without disappearing on you, hire this crew.”

“When I was at my wit's end after a catastrophic flood from the apartment upstairs destroyed my studio, I found a wonderful team in Perry, Michael, and Rojda. Perry was my biggest champion against the insurance company to make sure the renovation job was done right, and Michael was the absolute prince of execution. Timelines were realistic, and actually finished ON SCHEDULE and ON BUDGET, which was an amazing feat in itself. Rojda kept me informed / looped in throughout the entire project, and I felt very assured that I was receiving top notch service, quality, and incredible value for what was paid. I had complete faith in my team, and highly recommend NYTDR to anyone needing a dynamo team to achieve their vision for their space.”
