Excellent work from start to finish. The contractor handled the excavation for the test pit, restored the area with concrete, and cleaned everything up afterward. When I came home, everything was in perfect order. Professional, reliable, and easy to work with.
Professional work, timely and detailed, honest and sincere looking forward to working with NDC again in the very near future.

I highly recommend Adeel and his team! This is the second time I’ve worked with him, and the experience was just as great as the first. They recently put down pavers and created a new carport parking spot in front of my house. The quality of the work is top-notch, and they completed the job quickly and professionally. Adeel is always a pleasure to work with—reliable, professional, and excellent at what he does.

I needed my roof capped. Adel gave me a quote and exceeded my expectations. His crew took their time and followed the design of the building. I have other work and I will work with Adel. I have confidence in giving Adel the highest recommendation possible. He took a dangerous and hard job and made it look easy.

We recently had our garden walls and front steps replaced. We used natural stone on the walls and blue stone for the capping/step material. The results are amazing! It looks beautiful. The workers are excellent-highly skilled, clean, and just nice people. We have received many compliments from friends and neighbors.

I recently had my driveway redone, which included both pavers and concrete, as well as a planter installation, and I couldn't be happier with the results! In fact, two of my neighbors had followed in my steps and used this contractor for their driveways as well. After interviewing several contractors, I found this one to be the most responsive and reasonable. He not only had a clear vision for my driveway but even presented it alongside an image, which helped me visualize the final outcome.

To my delight, the finished driveway turned out even better than I had anticipated! This contractor is brimming with innovative ideas for enhancing the area he works on, and it was evident that he treated my project and my home as if they were his own. He was always respectful, polite, and kept every promise he made. It was obvious to me that he valued a returning customer and for him keeping a good relationship with a customer even after the job was finished was just as important as gaining a new customer.

Throughout the process, he was consistently available to communicate and always listened to my input. The experience felt like a productive and positive dialogue between myself, the contractor, and his crew. I would not hesitate to work with him again for any future projects. Highly recommend!

Window Lintels & Caulking FAQ

How much does window lintel replacement cost in NYC?

It depends on how many lintels are failing, their length and location, how much brick above has to be removed and rebuilt, and access on upper floors. We inspect each opening and put the scope in a written estimate. Ask for a free inspection.

What is a window lintel and why does it fail?

A lintel is the steel or masonry beam that carries the wall above a window or door. Steel lintels rust over decades, and as the rust expands it cracks and lifts the brick above, a process called rust jacking. Left alone it damages the wall and lets water in.

What are the signs my lintel needs replacing?

Rust stains bleeding down the brick, cracks stepping out from the top corners of a window, brick lifting or bulging above the opening, and gaps where the lintel meets the wall. Catching it early keeps the repair smaller.

How long does lintel replacement take?

A single lintel is often one to two days including cutting out the old steel, setting the new lintel, and rebuilding the brick. Multiple openings or upper floors with scaffolding take longer. You get a timeline in the written estimate.

Do you re-caulk and seal windows too?

Yes. We remove old failed caulk and re-seal around windows, joints, and transitions with the right sealant so water and air stop getting into the wall. Good caulking protects the lintel and masonry behind it.

Will you match the existing brick and mortar?

Yes. We match brick and mortar color and tooling as closely as possible so the rebuilt section above the window blends into the existing wall instead of standing out.

Is lintel work considered structural?

Yes. The lintel carries real load, so it has to be replaced properly with the right size steel and support while the wall is open. This is not a cosmetic patch, which is why it is worth using an experienced masonry crew.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. National Design and Contracting is a licensed NYC home improvement contractor, DCWP #2127843-DCWP, and fully insured. We replace lintels and seal facades across the five boroughs since 2014. Free estimate: (347) 335-5005.
