Our services
Whole-home interior refreshes — flooring, paint, trim, lighting, and built-ins.
Interior renovations refresh and modernize your home without the scope of a full structural remodel. We handle hardwood and tile flooring, trim and millwork, paint, lighting upgrades, custom built-ins, and finish carpentry.
Interior-only renovations are typically 4-10 weeks. They're the right scope when the layout works but the finishes are dated — common in Bergen County homes built in the 1990s and early 2000s where the bones are excellent but the cosmetic finishes don't match the value of the property.

Scope of work
Hardwood Flooring
Site-finished or pre-finished hardwood — oak, walnut, hickory, or wide-plank European white oak. Sub-floor leveling, proper acclimation, and finish coats applied with the dust-control standards Bergen County homeowners expect.
Trim & Millwork
Crown molding, base trim, chair rail, wainscoting, coffered ceilings, and custom door surrounds — designed and installed to elevate the architectural character of the home.
Custom Built-Ins
Window seats, bookcases, banquettes, mudroom benches, and home-office walls — designed to fit your space and stained or painted to match your existing trim.
Paint & Wallcovering
Whole-home interior paint with prep work that survives — caulking, sanding, primer, and two-coat finish using Benjamin Moore Aura or comparable. Wallpaper and grass-cloth installation where requested.
Lighting Upgrades
Recessed lighting, decorative fixtures, dimmer integration, and smart-home controls (Lutron Caseta, Vantage, Crestron) where requested.
Tile & Stone
Foyer, kitchen backsplash, bath, and accent-wall tile — installed by long-term tile pros, not framers learning a second trade.
