Knockout Renovation At Knockout, our pride in project management equals the pride we take in the quality and creativity of our design work. Nearly 20 years in development, one of the distinctions of our project management is our implementation of progress invoicing, in which - after an initial labor and products deposit - you pay for our services only as they're completed, rather than weeks or months before they've even begun.

Knockout Renovation specializes in residential interiors. In fact, we don't do exterior, commercial, industrial or government work. We have a long list of fans and are often consulted by various media as an industry expert.

Design
Report
This can best be determined by speaking with your management company and by requesting a copy of the building's Alteration Agreement. A project tends to require more processing when major plumbing or electrical fixtures might be relocated and when walls are being removed. However every building is different.
Remodeling
Report
While having your home remodeled should be exciting and fun, It can also be daunting and challenging, both mentally and financially. Knockout's all in one design, products and remodeling service streamlines the process, making it easier for you to have a beautiful, well-planned home without taking up weeks of your time overseeing every last detail yourself.

This company was hired by our neighbors (our homes are attached) and they damaged our house due to their negligence. They hired an engineer who was not an engineer and put their workers in danger. Our children, including our daughter with autism, had their bedrooms damaged. We have been in litigation for years. Knockout will not take responsibility for the mess they made nor will the people who hired them Atkins and Dickerson of East 7th St in Brooklyn.

Knockout took on our ambitious full home remodel and helped us realize our dream home! We moved into an outdated 3 floor row home, which required a bunch of work and by the end of the project they had remodeled our kitchen beautifully, added a half bath, redone two full bathrooms, refinished our floor, removed bulky built-ins, put in a nice banister for our main stairs and more! We are thrilled with the design and the space is super sleek and new-looking!

We live in a coop building in Turtle Bay and recently renovated our kitchen using Knockout. Overall the design process went very well, the quality of the work exceeded my expectations, and we're very happy with the results. Like all renovation projects, once we started we found a few things we needed to fix or adjust. I was worried but the team did a great job handling these curveballs.

One thing you should know: the paperwork took way longer than I expected so we started work later than I hoped. Once we started though, work progressed smoothly. We ended the project on time and actually under budget.

Knockout did a full gut renovation on my 2 bed / 2 bath apartment in 2015 and I cannot say enough good things about them. The designer I worked with was absolutely standout, helped me stay in budget and still get the look I was after. The workers and tradesmen who came to the apartment during the reno (which my dog and I were still living in) all were very careful and did nice work.

I especially appreciated how clean and careful they were to ensure my dog didn't get in to anything, even when the apartment was a fully open workspace. The renovation work came with a 7 year warranty on the work done and now, five years later, I can say that Knockout has 100% stood by their work. I've had only a few minor items arise that I've called them about in the past five years, but in each case, Keith and his team were responsive and the people they sent to address each item were prompt, helpful and very effective. Am loving my "new" apartment and looking forward to my next renovation project with the Knockout team.

When I became interested in renovating and modernizing my bathroom, I reached out to numerous design and build firms. I got detailed quotes from 4 different firms, while Knockout Renovation didn't provide the cheapest quote, it was very competitive and I felt most comfortable proceeding with them. Both June and Keith have been great to work with and they helped me make the best of my space and proposed designs that fit my needs and aligned with what was important to me.

The approval from the co-op board was a struggle and I had to negotiate on some matters with the board. This added significant delays to the work start date and I didn't get approval for everything I wanted. The delays threw some of my plans off. While these delays weren't coming from Knockout, rather from the co-op board, my feedback to Knockout would be to keep track of the average time co-op boards take to approve bathroom renovations and set expectations with clients accordingly.

Once the project was finally started, Knockout Renovation delivered on the actual demolition and reconstruction work on time and made sure everything was completed to my satisfaction. I'm extremely happy with the outcome, the bathroom looks and functions great! I would use Knockout Renovation in the future again. Thank you for everything!

Knockout did an outstanding job with our kitchen & bath renovation. Even though we didn't make any structural changes, it transformed our apartment -- very much for the better. The process didn't go perfectly (nothing ever does!) but Knockout was clear and fair throughout. And their warranty is amazing.

Over the past few years we have worked with Knockout Renovation on a number of projects. They have a professionalism and attention to detail that is rarely seen in the home renovation industry. When dealing with sliding doors and walls the success of the product you buy is inherently related to the quality of installation and Knockout has shown the ability to consistently produce exceptional results.

I had my Kitchen and bathroom renovated along with re-sanding of floors and painting of entire apartment. The quality of work was outstanding with a good value for the cost. I am very satisfied with the company's professionalism & courtesy, communication and customer service. I highly recommend them. I am very happy with the end result. Everyone who comes over thinks it's a totally new and different apartment, which it kind of is!

Thank you Knockout! Dear potential Knockout clients, Renovations are daunting and can be expensive, especially in New York City. It's important to know that you are getting what you paid for and also what you want. Keith and his team do go the extra mile to ensure that you are fully informed throughout the project and very happy with the final outcome. Plus they keep their word and stand behind their work 100%. It's hard to do better that that! Best of luck with your home improvement project.

Knockout Renovation gut renovated my pre-war 1920's Manhattan apartment. They did a superb job. The kitchen was gutted and completely redone, 2 walls were built to create my art studio as well as all the floors refinished, 2 bathrooms 90% redone, apt rewired with new lighting and all new painting. The work was completed on schedule and almost within budget (due to my adding new features, not due to any fault on the part of Knockout).

I would definitely recommend Knockout Renovation to anyone looking to renovate their home. They are professional, creative, friendly and completely reliable. Even my super and building staff raved about their professionalism and neatness/cleanliness. Keith and his group are great!

Keith and Gent are an incredible team that understand your renovation needs, make great suggestions and know how to execute. We had a water problem on the floor of our apartment, needed to replace the wood with ceramic tile, remodel the kitchen and bathroom, re-wallpaper, re-paint, and add trims throughout the renovated area.

Keith and Gent are an incredible team that understand your renovation needs, make great suggestions and know how to execute. We had a water problem on the floor of our apartment, needed to replace the wood with ceramic tile, remodel the kitchen and bathroom, re-wallpaper, re-paint, and add trims throughout the renovated area. It was an extensive job that was done well. Gent and his team are very talented with their hands, while being creative with their solutions. Keith oversees everything, and never was phased with challenges.

Both were flexible and acted professionally at all times. We are now happily enjoying the results, and I appreciate their care throughout the project. I highly recommend Knockout Renovation for any renovation project.

I hired Knockout Renovation to renovate my kitchen and bathroom in my prewar apartment in 2007. After carefully planning the project exactly to my specifications, Keith and his team completed the work on time and within our planned budget.

It was a pleasure working with Keith and Loredana on my kitchen renovation project. I had never undertaken such a large and costly project before, and Keith turned a potentially intimidating and sprawling effort into a straightforward plan.

I have used Knockout Renovation on two separate New York City total apartment renovation projects in the past 10 years. I cannot recommend them highly enough. The quality of service provided by Keith and his team is excellent from start to finish.
