Harlem’s Most Trusted Flat Renovation Partner
For thirty-seven years we’ve been the quiet force behind some of Harlem’s most beautiful apartment transformations — from landmarked brownstone co-ops on Strivers’ Row and Sugar Hill to sleek new riverfront condos overlooking the Hudson. When families want their home to finally match the soul of the neighborhood — bright, open, full of light and life — they call Zicklin Contracting: the flat renovation contractor Harlem residents have trusted for generations.
We turn chopped-up railroad flats into airy open-concept homes, convert narrow galleys into real chef kitchens where everybody actually fits, craft bathrooms that feel like private spas, and open up walls the right way while keeping every original detail worth saving. Every co-op board package, every landmark submission, every DOB permit — we handle it all so you never have to chase a single signature.
No drama. No surprises. Just flawless work from crews every super from 125th to 155th already greets by first name.
