DCON Renovations is truly exceptional at what they do, and there’s nothing they can’t handle. I had most of the main level of my home gutted and remodeled to create a larger, more functional kitchen, and the entire experience was outstanding. From start to finish, they were incredibly professional, organized, and always on time. The attention to detail was impressive, and the crew was friendly and a pleasure to work with. I was amazed at how quickly and smoothly everything came together. All of the subcontractors spoke highly of DCON, praising the professionalism and organization David brings to every project. I would absolutely recommend DCON to anyone considering a remodel. They go above and beyond expectations, use top-quality materials, and deliver unmatched results. I can’t say enough good things about them!

When you choose to work with DCON you can feel confidently that they will be honest, reliable and follow through on their work. As someone who has worked on projects alongside them and had them also perform work on my personal home I always knew that I had a knowledgeable company and a talented staff on my team. If you ever get the opportunity to work with someone, DCON Renovations is not only one of the best in the business but someone you can trust.

We hired David and DCON Renovations for a major remodel of our home, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the results. They gutted and completely remodeled two guest bathrooms and our master bathroom, and all of them turned out gorgeous! I had very specific design requests, and David was able to accommodate every one of them. He also designed and built an expansive closet in our master bedroom, offering great suggestions for organizing the space. Additionally, he gutted and remodeled our large downstairs family room. My favorite part of the project is the beautiful built-in bookshelves he created along an entire wall. Throughout the entire process, David was patient, accommodating, and always ready to help with our many questions and design changes. If we ever take on another remodel or building project, David will definitely be the first person I call.

A+ renovation on my bathroom. Installed custom handmade tile and fully tiled shower with sloped floor, with complex shower system. It was a challenging job and my bar was high - they met it. Shiloh and team were responsive, hardworking, detail oriented, and professional throughout the process.

I just recently completed 2 bathrooms and kitchen remodeling with DCON Renovation. They also installed wallpaper in the bedroom, and refinished the flooring and painted all the walls. I had a great experience with Shiloh the project manager and his crew! Everything they said they did, which I really appreciate! Highly recommend working with them!

We needed help, from beginning to end. We wanted a company who could truly partner with us to take our vague ideas and turn them into a new living space we would love. DCON did exactly that. Their experience and skill helped us turn our discussions into a design, and turn that design into the modern living space we hoped for. Our project manager was responsive and professional and fair and made things right when a couple issues popped up. (Show me a remodel with zero issues, LOL.) We are excited by the new space, and would recommend DCON without hesitation.

I recently purchased a house in Brooklyn and hired DCON to handle a variety of improvements. Although it was a lengthy list of tasks, it was relatively small compared to other projects. However, the team was eager to take on the work and treated it with the same importance as a large-scale project. The quality of their work and their focus on details were exceptional - the team truly exceeded expectations. The price they quoted was exactly what I paid, except for some unforeseen electrical work, which was done at a very fair price! It was a great experience from start to finish.

The duration of a Brownstone renovation project in Brooklyn can vary depending on several factors. At DCON Renovations, we understand the importance of timely completion while maintaining exceptional quality. Let’s take a closer look at the factors that influence the timeline:

  1. Scope of Renovation: The extent of the renovation plays a significant role in determining the duration. Projects that involve extensive structural changes or complete overhauls may take longer compared to more focused renovations, such as updating specific rooms or enhancing specific features.
  2. Size of the Brownstone: The size of your Brownstone also affects the timeline. Larger properties may require more time for demolition, construction, and finishing touches. However, our experienced team excels at efficient project management to ensure a streamlined process regardless of the size.
  3. Customization and Complexity: If your renovation involves intricate customizations or unique design elements, it may add some time to the project. Custom features often require additional planning, fabrication, and installation, but they contribute to creating a truly personalized space tailored to your preferences.
  4. Permitting and Approvals: The time required to obtain permits and approvals can vary depending on the complexity of the project and local regulations. Our team at DCON Renovations is well-versed in navigating these processes, ensuring a smooth and efficient permit acquisition timeline.
  5. Unforeseen Challenges: Occasionally, unforeseen challenges may arise during the renovation process, such as unexpected structural issues or delays in material deliveries. While we aim to mitigate such issues through careful planning and thorough inspections, addressing them effectively may impact the timeline.

Based on our experience, here’s a general timeline you can expect for a Brownstone renovation in Brooklyn:

  • Phase 1: Planning and Design (2-6 weeks): During this phase, we collaborate with you to define the project scope, create a design concept, and finalize the architectural plans and material selections.
  • Phase 2: Permitting and Approvals (4-8 weeks): We handle the necessary permits and approvals, ensuring compliance with local regulations before commencing the construction phase.
  • Phase 3: Construction (varies based on scope): The construction phase can range from several weeks to several months, depending on the complexity and size of the renovation. Our team works diligently to ensure efficient progress while maintaining exceptional craftsmanship.
  • Phase 4: Finishing Touches (2-4 weeks): This phase involves adding the final details, such as installing fixtures, applying finishes, and conducting quality inspections to ensure everything meets our high standards.

While it is possible to stay in your brownstone during a renovation, we generally recommend temporarily relocating for your comfort and convenience. At DCON Renovations, we prioritize ensuring that your project progresses smoothly with minimal disruption. Here’s why a temporary relocation is often advisable:

  • Noise, Dust, and Disruption: Even with dust barriers and protective coverings, renovation work can generate noise, dust, and disruption that might impact your comfort.
  • Phased Work and Demolition: Our team works in well-defined phases, but demolition and initial construction can be particularly disruptive, making it challenging to stay in the home during these stages.
  • Daily Impact: Despite our efforts to keep the work area tidy and safe, significant parts of your brownstone may be affected, impacting your daily routines.
  • Critical Spaces: If your renovation involves key areas like the kitchen, living spaces, or bathrooms, being without them for several weeks can be stressful. Temporary relocation can ease the inconvenience of not having access to these vital spaces.
  • Structural Changes: For extensive projects that involve significant structural changes, staying elsewhere is often more comfortable and practical. We’ll discuss this option with you during the planning phase to ensure minimal disruption to your daily life.

By advising on temporary relocation, we aim to make your brownstone renovation as seamless and comfortable as possible. Our team is dedicated to delivering high-quality results with minimal inconvenience. If you have any concerns or specific requirements, please let us know, and we’ll do our best to accommodate them.
