BILT/DFI is a fully licensed, bonded and insured General Contracting firm based in Brooklyn, NY. Founded in 2006, our projects include luxurious residential renovations and highly conceptual commercial projects.  Starting with the design and development phase, we work with the client and their architect to help ensure that schedule, budget and design are in agreement before the construction phase begins.  Clear and concise scheduling, line item budgets and a clear understanding of design intent set us apart from our peers in the industry.  BILT/DFI, has developed strong relationships with vendors and fabricators of the highest end materials and we work with them to promote environmentally friendly and non-toxic alternatives to traditional luxury finishes.  Learn how the unique and diverse educational and creative background of our team can facilitate your next  project.


Seth Wachtell: Founder/President, settled in NYC after receiving a B.A from Oberlin College in '97.  Prior to founding BILT/DFI, he worked as a Set Designer, Cabinet Maker and constructed art installations for NY's finest Museums and Galleries. This experience brings a thirst for innovation and a deadline oriented approach to the construction process.
