Navigating Co-ops and Historic Buildings

When selecting a provider in the Upper East Side, local knowledge is non-negotiable. We understand that many properties must follow strict co-op or condo board rules regarding noise, work hours, and elevator usage.

  • Strict Compliance: We manage permit requirements and coordinate with doormen and building staff to ensure smooth access.
  • Historic Preservation: We respect landmark status guidelines, ensuring materials align with the building's character.
  • Neighbor Consideration: We plan projects to minimize sound transmission and keep common areas clean, keeping your neighbors comfortable.

Our Replacement Process

We take a structured approach that ensures clarity and consistent results, especially in older buildings where subfloors may be uneven.

  1. Assessment: We inspect the existing tile and review layout goals.
  2. Removal: Old tile is removed with care to avoid damaging underlying surfaces or creating excessive dust.
  3. Preparation: We address structural conditions early to prevent future cracking or shifting.
  4. Installation: New tile is installed using precision techniques for alignment and sealed for protection.

Repair vs. Replacement: Making the Right Choice

Many property owners are unsure if they need full replacement. We help you evaluate the condition of your surfaces based on the age of the installation and any underlying water damage. In some Upper East Side homes, limited repair can extend the life of a vintage floor. However, if we see widespread loose tiles or outdated waterproofing (common in pre-war bathrooms) we explain why tile replacement is the safer long-term choice under NYC building codes.
