What is behind the walls in a Glen Cove house?
A genuine range: dense older city housing, 1920s and 1930s houses, waterfront property, and large North Shore estates on the outskirts. Older housing stock with plaster, dated service and, in some cases, lead paint requiring EPA-certified handling. We are a certified firm.
Do I need a permit for a kitchen renovation in Glen Cove?
If you are moving plumbing, altering electrical or taking out a wall, yes — filed with City of Glen Cove Building Department. Glen Cove is a city, not a village or a town hamlet. It runs its own building department, its own code enforcement and its own review process.
How long will my kitchen be out of action?
A full gut typically runs eight to twelve weeks on site. The schedule is usually set by cabinetry lead time rather than labour, which is why we order early and set up a temporary kitchen before demolition starts.
Will the electrical service need upgrading?
Often, in older Glen Cove housing stock. A modern kitchen adds significant load, and where the existing panel cannot carry it we price the upgrade in the original estimate rather than raising it as a change order.
Do you do the millwork and tile too?
Yes, with our own finish carpenters. The crew that frames the opening is the crew that hangs the trim, which is why the reveals line up.
