Commercial remodeling · New York City

Commercial spaces that work as hard as you do

Competition in New York is fierce and square footage is at a premium. Whether you need a look that attracts customers, impresses clients or suits your staff, we design around your end user, even if that end user is you.

When you invest in the look of your office, showroom or practice, the team you choose decides whether you meet your goals. We listen to your vision and your company's needs so the design aligns, and our interior designers and project managers see every detail through the way you hoped.

How it works

From first call to final clean

Designers, coordinators, foremen and project managers all under one roof. You deal with one team and one point of contact at every stage.

  1. 01

    A 30 minute zoom call

    Tell us your ideas, the approximate size and the age of the home. You leave with a cost range and a realistic timeframe.

  2. 02

    The home measure

    Our measuring specialist calls an hour before the visit. The measure takes 30 to 45 minutes and the drawings are emailed to you and your designer.

  3. 03

    Design and proposal

    Your designer turns the measure into a plan with finishes, a scope of work and a fixed proposal. Board paperwork starts in parallel.

  4. 04

    Build, with one team

    Your project manager is on site daily. Weekly check-ins with you, the designer and the manager keep everything on schedule.

Testimonials

What commercial clients say

4.9/5300+ five-star reviews on Google, HomeAdvisor and Houzz
  • This is my third time doing a renovation, and honestly? This was the smoothest one yet. KBR is organized, transparent, and knows what they're doing. There were no surprise charges, no missed deadlines, and no excuses. Just quality work, excellent communication, and a seriously talented team. I wish I had found them sooner.

  • Every stage of the project was well-organized, communication was clear, and timelines were respected. The craftsmanship in every room reflects their experience and high standards. If you're looking for reliable contractors who take pride in their work, this is the company to trust for your next renovation.

    Rivka L.Stamford, NY
  • KBR was a lifesaver during our brownstone renovation in Brooklyn. We had a ton of issues with outdated plumbing and uneven floors, and they handled everything with so much patience and care. The team showed up on time, communicated clearly, and didn't make me feel rushed through any of the decisions.
