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 Sag Harbor house?
A dense, largely intact 19th-century whaling village, with waterfront property and newer construction on the outskirts. 19th-century houses with settled framing, plaster and no insulation. Interior work is as much restoration as renovation.
Do I need a permit for a kitchen renovation in Sag Harbor?
If you are moving plumbing, altering electrical or taking out a wall, yes — filed with Incorporated Village of Sag Harbor Building Department. Sag Harbor Village straddles the Town of Southampton and the Town of East Hampton, which is unusual and occasionally consequential. The village handles building permits, with historic review over much of the centre.
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 Sag Harbor 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.
