Forest Hills general contractor

Building in Forest Hills means working inside a layered set of approvals. A renovation in a pre-war co-op runs through the board and the building's alteration agreement before a single permit is filed, while detached Tudor and attached homes carry their own load-bearing walls, original plaster, and older mechanical systems that shape how the work is sequenced. As your general contractor we read those conditions first, then build a scope and schedule that fits the actual house rather than a generic template.

The Forest Hills Gardens section adds a private architectural review layer on top of city requirements, so exterior changes there need design documentation and sign-off from the Gardens corporation before construction begins. We handle that coordination alongside the city DOB process, filing the right work type, pulling the permits, and scheduling inspections so the project does not stall between agencies. For interior co-op work, we align our timeline with board-approved work hours and building staff to keep neighbors and management on side.

Day to day, our role is to run the project so you do not have to. We bring in vetted carpenters, electricians, plumbers, and finish trades, hold them to one schedule and one standard, and keep a single point of contact for questions, change orders, and inspections from demolition through punch list.
