Expert kitchen remodel services for Brooklyn homes and businesses
A kitchen remodel is one of the most impactful home improvements you can make — and in Brooklyn, the specifics depend on your building type, layout constraints, and neighborhood character. Whether you're opening up a galley kitchen, installing custom cabinetry, or creating a chef's kitchen with professional-grade appliances, Lion Construction Management handles everything from design coordination through final installation — plumbing, electrical, custom millwork, countertops, backsplash, flooring, and lighting — with the precision and quality that Brooklyn homeowners demand.
Brooklyn's building stock tells the story of over a century of New York architecture — from the brownstone rows of Park Slope and the limestone townhouses of Brooklyn Heights to the converted warehouses of DUMBO and Williamsburg and the pre-war apartment buildings that line Ocean Parkway. Renovation in Brooklyn often means restoring historic details — original plaster crown moldings, pocket doors, decorative fireplace mantels, and ornate stair balusters — while modernizing kitchens, bathrooms, and building systems. Lion Construction Management specializes in this balance of preservation and modernization that Brooklyn homeowners value.

Brooklyn renovation projects reflect the borough's architectural character — brownstone gut renovations, townhouse floor-through reconfigurations, and condo updates each follow different paths. After your consultation, Lion Construction Management develops a scope of work tailored to your building type. Brownstone renovations often require structural engineering for load-bearing wall modifications, LPC review if you're in a landmarked district, and DOB permits for any plumbing, electrical, or structural work. We manage brownstone-specific logistics: narrow stairway access requiring pre-cut materials, party-wall considerations with attached neighbors, and cellar-level waterproofing for below-grade spaces. Expect weekly check-ins, detailed photo documentation, and proactive communication about schedule and budget throughout the project.
A typical kitchen remodel in Brooklyn takes 8–14 weeks depending on scope. Brownstone kitchens often involve structural considerations like load-bearing walls and aging plumbing stacks that can extend the timeline. Lion Construction Management provides a detailed timeline during pre-construction so you can plan accordingly.
Kitchen remodel costs in Brooklyn vary widely based on scope, materials, and building requirements. A moderate renovation typically starts around $50,000–$75,000, while high-end gut renovations with custom cabinetry and premium finishes can range from $100,000–$250,000+. We provide detailed estimates during the planning phase.
Most kitchen remodels in Brooklyn that involve plumbing, electrical, or gas work require DOB permits. Many Brooklyn neighborhoods are in historic districts, which may require Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC) review in addition to DOB permits. Lion Construction Management handles all permitting and inspections on your behalf.
Yes, most homeowners remain in their homes during a kitchen remodel. We set up temporary kitchen stations, contain dust and debris, and phase the work to minimize disruption. Clear communication about daily schedules helps you plan around construction activity.
