Company Background
About Brener Construction, Inc.
Brener Construction, Inc. is a Midtown Manhattan general contractor that spends most of its time inside apartments, from one-bedroom kitchen and bath updates to full gut renovations of units in luxury buildings. The company's own site says it has more than 20 years of experience in New York City and the tri-state area, and it lists renovation, flooring, painting, electrical, plumbing and millwork as its trades. The work is residential and commercial, though the reviews Google shows are almost all about homes.
Reviewers keep naming the same people. Amos is described as on site every day and easy to reach, and several reviews credit him with keeping crews on time and finding a workaround when a hidden structural limit threatened a budget. Lois, who runs the office, is praised for filing the Department of Buildings paperwork and tracking insurance, contracts and payments, which is the part of a co-op or condo job that tends to go wrong. One reviewer credits Tzvika with design help on shelving and kitchen furniture. We read five recent reviews and found no complaint.
The company lists its Manhattan office at 20 East 46th Street, Suite 200-c, and Google shows hours of 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. every day. Its websites also show Queens addresses in Oakland Gardens, and those do not match each other, so confirm which office will manage your project. The site says only that it is a licensed contractor. It does not print a licence number or a warranty term, and its own site says the firm appeared on Bravo's Get A Room.
4.9 from 239 Google reviews, read October 31, 2026.
Brener suits owners of co-ops, condos and apartments who want one contractor handling the trades and the building paperwork. It suits less well anyone who wants a design studio with a showroom or a published warranty. Before booking, ask for a written quote, the contractor's NYC home improvement licence number and a plan for who files with the Department of Buildings, then look the licence up on the city's search before you pay a deposit.

Brener Construction, Inc. FAQs
Is Brener Construction licensed in New York City?
Its websites call it a licensed contractor but do not print a licence number. Ask for its NYC home improvement contractor licence number and look it up on the Department of Consumer and Worker Protection licence search before you pay a deposit. Also ask who files your plans with the Department of Buildings, since reviewers say the office manager handles that paperwork.
What are Brener Construction's hours?
Google lists Brener Construction as open from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. every day of the week. The company does not advertise emergency call-outs, so treat it as a scheduled renovation contractor. The Manhattan phone line is 646-455-3321.
Does Brener Construction offer a warranty, and where does it work?
Brener Construction does not publish a warranty term or financing offer, so get the warranty in your written contract. Its sites say it serves the greater New York City area and the tri-state region, and the reviews we read describe Manhattan apartment jobs. Ask which crew and project manager will be assigned to your building.
