Upper East Side’s Most Trusted Flat Renovation Partner
For thirty-seven years we’ve been quietly reshaping some of the finest apartments on the Upper East Side: from grand pre-war classics on Park and Fifth to sleek full-floor residences overlooking the reservoir. When discerning owners want their home to feel larger, brighter, and unmistakably theirs, they call Zicklin Contracting: the flat renovation contractor Upper East Side families have quietly relied on for generations.
We specialise in turning formal, compartmentalised layouts into effortless open living, converting narrow service kitchens into proper chef’s domains, crafting bathrooms that feel like private spas, and navigating even the most exacting co-op boards without a single hiccup. Every permit, every alteration agreement, every signature; we take care of it so you never have to.
No drama. No surprises. Just flawless execution from a team every doorman between 59th and 96th already knows by name.
