Jersey City renovation contractor

From Downtown brownstones to high-rise condos at Newport and the waterfront, Jersey City projects range widely. So does the paperwork.

High-rise condos and historic rowhouses

In Jersey City's newer towers, the job revolves around management: insurance certificates, freight elevator reservations, strict work hours. In Downtown's older rowhouses, it's about what's behind the walls and how the house has settled.

Historic districts

Parts of Downtown — including Paulus Hook, Van Vorst Park and Hamilton Park — are historic districts, where visible exterior changes generally need approval from the city's Historic Preservation Commission. Interior renovations usually don't, but it's worth confirming before you plan windows, doors or facade work.

Permits

We file with Jersey City's construction code office and handle inspections, so you don't have to take time off to meet an inspector.

“Jose and his team at DCR are absolutely amazing. They are tidy, polite, and do beautiful work. They have done two of my bathrooms in the last year and have wowed me both times with the attention to detail.”
