Construction and Installation
Following demolition, our construction team installs your new kitchen, starting with plumbing and electrical systems, which includes inspection. Our teams work quickly and efficiently to achieve quality results without drastically impacting your routine.
Our inclusive design-build teams are fast and effective. We give you one team with engineering and construction professionals who can expertly execute our interior designers’ plans for your kitchen.

Client-Centric Approach
At Essential, we manage each project from the client’s perspective. From the initial consultation to the final installation, our team explores all your options with you, resulting in a well-thought-out and expertly executed renovation.
Transparent and open communication alongside our “zero change order” model allows us to manage each client’s expectations and make the kitchen remodel process a more pleasant experience. Our Essential Portal lets you view all components of your project including the schedule, action items, renderings, permits, and other documents. We value each client’s input and listen to their needs to successfully execute each kitchen remodel.
High-Quality Craftsmanship
Working with suppliers offering the highest quality craftsmanship results in a striking design that withstands the test of time. Materials including sturdy, natural wood, locally sourced stone, and strong yet stylish fixtures add value to your home and reduce the likelihood of premature wear and tear.
Timely and Efficient
The one-team, “zero change orders” model perfected by Essential ensures timely completion of your kitchen remodel. With a single design-build team, we can manage the process from start to finish rather than coordinating a large team of multiple contractors.
With Essential Portal, our clients can access the project schedule and see critical action items. This approach keeps you involved throughout the process while keeping you from getting overwhelmed by design choices.
No Change Orders
One of the standout features of our service is our “No Change Orders” policy. This means that once the project scope and budget are agreed upon, we commit to delivering the project without any unexpected additional costs or changes. Our detailed planning and thorough communication ensure that all aspects of the project are considered upfront, providing you with peace of mind and a smooth, predictable remodeling experience. This approach not only saves you time and money but also guarantees a stress-free renovation process, allowing you to focus on enjoying your new kitchen.
One Team to Manage All Construction and Remodeling Needs
Each client works with one team and a single project manager throughout the NYC kitchen remodeling process. These project managers serve as a single point person for design and build-related concerns. Assigning a single contact for each project allows for seamless and timely communication and a smoother kitchen remodel.
