From facade inspection through DOB filing — we get your building back to SAFE status, get the sidewalk shed off your sidewalk, and protect your tenants. Serving all five boroughs from Queens since 2010.
If you own a NYC building taller than six stories, this law affects you — and missing a deadline gets expensive fast.
Local Law 11 — officially the Facade Inspection Safety Program (FISP) — requires NYC building owners with structures over six stories to have their exterior walls and appurtenances examined every five years by a Qualified Exterior Wall Inspector (QEWI) and to file a report with the NYC Department of Buildings.
After the inspection, your building gets one of three classifications: Safe, Safe With a Repair and Maintenance Program (SWARMP), or Unsafe. Anything other than Safe means repair work is required — sometimes within months, sometimes immediately with a sidewalk shed up the entire time.
From scaffolding to final DOB sign-off — one team, one accountable point of contact, no subcontractor finger-pointing.
We work directly with your QEWI engineer or architect to schedule inspections, install drop scaffolds, and document conditions properly the first time.
Color-matched mortar repointing for failing joints. We use NYC-approved Type N and Type O mortar mixes appropriate for your building's age.
Parapet failures are the #1 cause of FISP "Unsafe" classifications. We rebuild, brace, and waterproof to current NYC code.
Sheet metal, terra-cotta, and wood cornice restoration that satisfies both DOB and Landmarks Preservation Commission requirements.
Penetrating sealers, joint sealants, through-wall flashing, and full waterproofing systems to stop water before it causes the next FISP issue.
We pull permits, do the work, and shepherd the file through DOB until your violation is dismissed and your building is back to SAFE status.
Corroded steel lintels and crumbling sills are a Cycle 9 inspector's first stop. We cut, replace, and seal — without disturbing tenants inside.
Shed permits, installation, monthly compliance, and rapid removal once repairs pass final inspection. Every month a shed stays up costs you money.
For buildings within historic districts, we handle LPC permit applications and use period-appropriate materials and techniques.
Most facade contractors are spread across all five boroughs and treat Queens jobs as overflow. We're based here, our crews live here, and we care about getting your building right.
No "we sub that out" runaround. Inspection coordination, scaffolding, masonry, waterproofing, and DOB filings — all under our direct supervision.
Every month a sidewalk shed sits in front of your building costs $400–$1,200+ in shed rental alone. Our average repair-to-removal time beats the industry by weeks.
Detailed line-item proposals after on-site inspection. No "T&M" surprise invoices. If we miss something in the scope, that's our problem, not yours.
Insurance certificates available before contract signing. We carry the coverage co-op boards, condo associations, and commercial owners require.
We've filed hundreds of permits and navigated dozens of LPC reviews. Your engineer doesn't have to walk us through the process — we already know it.
We'll give you the addresses of completed Queens, Brooklyn, or Manhattan projects so you can drive by and see the work yourself.
A clear, predictable path so you know exactly what happens next.
We meet you at the building, review the QEWI report, and document conditions in detail.
Line-item proposal with materials, scope, timeline, and fixed pricing — usually within 5 business days.
We pull DOB and LPC permits, install sidewalk shed and pipe scaffolding, and stage materials.
Skilled execution, weekly progress reports, final inspection, and DOB filing to return to SAFE.
Headquartered in Richmond Hill, Queens, with active job sites across NYC and Long Island.
