Renovation Inspiration Straight from Sweeten’s Newest Experts

There are more than 10,000 general contractors in New York City – even if it were easy for a homeowner to do all of the research to make sure contractors are licensed, insured, and have solid references with beautiful portfolios of work, it can still be tough to find contractors who are available in your area, within your budget range, and on your timeline. That’s why we’ve made it our job – at Sweeten, we hand-pick the best experts for major home renovation projects. So much of this happens behind the scenes that sometimes we forget how exciting it is to work with talented renovation professionals across the City. This week, join us for a mini walking tour through the profiles of just a handful of new Sweeten experts!

Renovate to live, Sweeten to thrive!

Sweeten brings homeowners an exceptional renovation experience by personally matching trusted general contractors to your project, while offering expert guidance and support—at no cost to you.

Sweeten Expert Jonathan caught our eye with custom shaker cabinets and contrasting floating shelves in this Upper East Side Manhattan kitchen. Beautiful finishes, a smart layout, and creative use of the kitchen’s central corner saved this space from life as a galley kitchen. Take a look at Jonathan’s profile for information about his team, references from other homeowners, and more great photos.

Sweeten Expert Rob created this stunning series of custom shelves and cabinetry in a few different buildings, but we prefer to imagine these projects as part of the same dream urban home.
