Property taxes, insurance, and utilities can add up quickly, but New Yorkers also need to consider additional carrying costs like condo and co-op fees when planning their home renovations. This can be frustrating, as carrying costs generally feel like a tenuous number and are often double what you had originally anticipated. When you partner with Bolster on your home renovation, you are partnering with a company that takes all the guesswork out of carrying costs.

Originally used as a rental property, this Midtown East apartment required significant upgrades to make it feel like a home. The flooring also had severe damage due to flooding from the former tenants. Replacing the flooring with this light and bright parquet design opened up the space allowing it to reflect natural light, and making it an energy-efficient solution, too! The results are the beautiful, sophisticated, and functional home it is today.

The homeowners of this Park Slope brownstone, built in 1903, wanted some original features to be kept, while making necessary modern updates to make their new home as comfortable for their family as possible. Modernizing and renovating your home and keeping original details is the best way to preserve the home's personality. We always think of buckets: ditch, keep, restore. This helps contextualize function and form—these stunning stained glass windows were clearly a keep and restore. We love seeing when classic & modern meet—it can add so much personality to a space!

We loved working with the architect homeowner on her beautiful Upper West Side railroad-style apartment. It was a partial renovation, and she came to us with a background in architecture and design, so our Agile X Bolster model suited her needs perfectly. Our goal is to support homeowners' vision for their space and ultimately make their dream a reality!

When a family is on a deadline, we work to make their timeline a reality. The soon-to-be parents who own this Flatiron apartment wanted to update the bedrooms and bathrooms, replace the flooring, make electric and plumbing updates before the birth of their first child. We were up for the challenge, and happy to help make those initial days at home with their little one that much more special.

We worked with the owners of this beautiful Clinton Hill home to significantly alter and upgrade the layout and design—including a two-story extension to better suit the needs of their young and growing family. We envisioned how the family might use the space—the dinners they'll make together or the breakfasts they'll share on the island—and worked to make that vision a reality.

Our Harlem homeowners wanted to update the layout of their brownstone, which had originally been a multi-family home. This narrow home had valuable space that was being wasted with the original, inefficient staircase. We love how the improvements we made completely opened it up, while also making it feel modern and elegant. What had originally been an inefficient layout with renter-grade updates became this sleek and spacious home perfectly suited to our homeowner's needs.
