Who we are
A local Manhattan contractor for water damage and property repair
JR General Contracting Group is based at 307 W 93rd St on the Upper West Side and serves property owners, residents, landlords and building managers across Manhattan. Our work centers on water-related damage: removing standing water, drying the affected structure, controlling remaining moisture, and then rebuilding the surfaces and finishes that were damaged.
Because we operate as a general contractor as well as a water damage restoration service, the repair stage does not require a separate company. The same team that documents the damage and dries the space can also handle drywall, ceiling, wall and interior restoration work once the structure is ready.
Water damage services
Water damage cleanup, removal and drying
Water problems in Manhattan buildings often start with a burst pipe, an appliance failure, a roof or window leak, or water travelling down from an upper floor. Each situation is handled in a defined sequence so the property is dry before any repair work begins.
Water Removal & Extraction
Pumping and extracting water from floors, subfloors, carpets and enclosed cavities to stop damage from spreading further into the structure.
Structural Drying
Air movers and dehumidifiers positioned to dry framing, subfloors and wall cavities, with moisture checked until readings return to normal.

Repair and restoration after the water is gone
Drying a property is only half of the job. The visible damage — stained ceilings, soft drywall, damaged trim and finishes — still needs to be rebuilt. As a general contractor in Manhattan, we carry out that repair work directly.
Repairs we handle
- Ceiling and wall repair after leaks or water intrusion
- Drywall removal, replacement, taping and finishing
- Trim, baseboard and door frame replacement
- Interior painting and surface finishing
- Flooring removal and reinstallation where required
- General contracting repairs for apartments, brownstones and commercial units
Our process
A simple three-stage service process
Every project follows the same order, from the first inspection to the final repair.
Stage 1
Assessment
We inspect the affected area, identify where the water came from and how far it travelled, take moisture readings, and explain the scope of work needed.
Stage 2
Water Removal & Drying
Standing water is extracted, unsalvageable materials are removed, and drying equipment is set up and monitored until the structure reaches dry readings.
Stage 3
Repair & Restoration
Drywall, ceilings, walls, trim and finishes are rebuilt so the space returns to a usable, finished condition.
Property types
Residential & commercial services
Manhattan properties vary widely, and water damage behaves differently in a pre-war walk-up than in a modern commercial build-out. We adjust access, equipment placement and scheduling to suit the building.
Residential
Apartments, condominiums, co-ops, brownstones and multi-family buildings, including work coordinated with residents, owners and building staff.
Commercial
Offices, retail spaces, restaurants and small commercial units, with attention to reducing disruption to daily operations wherever possible.
