Home Improvement FAQs

Yes. Westchester County law requires home improvement contractors to hold a license issued by the county's Department of Consumer Protection — New York has no statewide license for this work, so it's handled at the county level. You can verify any contractor's license through the county's online licensed-contractor search. CC Fabian is fully licensed and insured for work throughout Westchester and Putnam Counties.

Search the contractor's business name in Westchester County's "Find a Licensed Contractor" database on the Department of Consumer Protection website, or call the department at (914) 995-2155. Licensed contractors in Westchester also display a green sticker on the rear bumper of their vehicle showing the license expiration date. Check that the name on the license matches the name on your contract.

Yes. Federal EPA rules require that paid work disturbing painted surfaces in housing built before 1978 be performed by a lead-safe certified firm using lead-safe work practices. The requirements apply above roughly 6 square feet of interior surface or 20 square feet of exterior — thresholds most repaints on older homes will exceed. Contractors must also give you the EPA's Renovate Right pamphlet before starting.

Yes. Much of Westchester and Putnam is older housing stock, and we've spent 25+ years working on it — from historic homes in Bedford to century-old colonials across Putnam. Older homes need more prep: careful scraping, spot priming, wood repair, and attention to original trim profiles. We price that prep honestly rather than skipping it.
