house.
Interior work is where the age of the housing stock stops being trivia and starts being budget. Plaster, old service and cast-iron waste lines are all normal here, and all cost money to do properly.

What is behind the walls in a Greenport house?
A dense, historic maritime village with 19th-century houses close together, plus waterfront property and newer construction on the outskirts. Old maritime houses with settled framing, plaster and dated service. Panel work goes through the village utility.
Do I need a permit for a kitchen renovation in Greenport?
If you are moving plumbing, altering electrical or taking out a wall, yes — filed with Incorporated Village of Greenport Building Department. Greenport Village issues its own permits and runs its own municipal electric utility, so service work is coordinated with the village rather than PSEG. Outside the village it is Town of Southold.
How long will my kitchen be out of action?
A full gut typically runs eight to twelve weeks on site. The schedule is usually set by cabinetry lead time rather than labour, which is why we order early and set up a temporary kitchen before demolition starts.
Will the electrical service need upgrading?
Often, in older Greenport housing stock. A modern kitchen adds significant load, and where the existing panel cannot carry it we price the upgrade in the original estimate rather than raising it as a change order.
Do you do the millwork and tile too?
Yes, with our own finish carpenters. The crew that frames the opening is the crew that hangs the trim, which is why the reveals line up.
