Thinking About Renovating Your NYC Home? Here’s What You Need to Know (And Why Reset Renovation Is the Team for the Job)

Renovating in New York City is a whole different experience than anywhere else in the country. With aging infrastructure, strict building codes, and space constraints that challenge even the most seasoned designers, you can’t afford to take chances with your home—or your budget.

At Reset Renovation, we specialize in guiding NYC homeowners through stress-free, high-quality renovations that are custom-tailored to the city’s unique landscape. Here’s what you need to know before you begin—and how we make the process easier.


🏙️ Why Renovating in NYC Is Different

If you’re planning a remodel, you’ve probably already encountered the complexity of:

  • Co-op or condo board approvals
  • Permits from the NYC Department of Buildings
  • Historic preservation restrictions
  • Shared utilities or narrow freight elevator hours

These aren’t minor hurdles—they can delay your project by weeks or even months if not handled correctly.

That’s why NYC homeowners turn to trusted, experienced contractors who know how to get it done right.


📋 What Makes a Successful Renovation?

Whether you’re remodeling a brownstone in Brooklyn or modernizing a Midtown condo, the most successful projects share three things:

✅ 1. Clear Vision & Smart Design

We help you define what you want—and more importantly, what works in your space. Our design team focuses on:

  • Maximizing every square foot
  • Integrating storage and light
  • Making your home work for your lifestyle

✅ 2. Full Compliance with NYC Regulations

At Reset Renovation, we handle:

  • All permit applications
  • DOB paperwork
  • Landmark approvals (when needed)
  • Scheduling and managing inspections

You’ll never be left guessing what’s happening next.
