Gut Renovations in Manhattan & New York City

A full gut renovation brings every trade together. Home Evolutions manages demolition, structural work, mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems, millwork, tile, stone and finish carpentry under one contract and one schedule.

Our work includes high-end apartment, townhouse, condo and co-op renovations throughout New York City. From the earliest planning through final finishes, the objective is to keep the construction aligned with the drawings, budget and design intent.

Complex renovations benefit from decisions made before demolition begins. We provide constructability review, trade-level estimating, scheduling and long-lead procurement, with pricing broken down item by item.

Working alongside architects and interior designers, we coordinate shop drawings, mock-ups, templates and finish selections before fabrication and installation. This allows potential conflicts to be addressed early and gives the project team a clearer understanding of scope, cost and schedule.

Gut renovations in Manhattan often involve more than the work inside the residence. Co-op and condo projects can require alteration agreements, insurance documentation, building approvals, protection plans, restricted working hours, freight-elevator scheduling and coordination with building management and neighbors.

Home Evolutions incorporates these requirements into planning and sequencing so construction can move forward while respecting the building and its residents.

Once a residence is opened up, the work behind the finished surfaces becomes just as important as what will ultimately be seen. Our scope can include structural reconfiguration and repairs as well as new mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems.

We also work in pre-war apartments and townhouses where existing conditions, original construction and building requirements have to be reconciled with modern systems and a new interior.

The final result depends on coordination at the detail level. Custom millwork and stone are shop-drawn, mocked up or templated as appropriate before fabrication. Tile layouts, plaster samples and finish conditions are reviewed in relation to the design so joints, reveals and transitions land as intended.

Throughout construction, Home Evolutions works closely with the architect, designer and client to protect the integrity of the design through execution.
