brick pointing and repointing in NYC

Your building's facade is its public face and primary shield. In Manhattan, weather, pollution, and time take a toll, leading to cracks, spalling, and potential safety hazards. Our structured facade restoration process is designed for property owners and managers who need a compliant, cost-effective, and long-term solution. We begin with a thorough inspection and analysis, identifying all issues from brick deterioration to structural concerns.

Our team then develops a detailed plan that addresses Local Law 11 (FISP) cycle requirements, landmark preservation guidelines, and your specific budgetary needs. We specialize in brick pointing and repointing, crack repairs, brick replacement, lintel and parapet restoration, and chimney repairs. Every step is managed with precision, from scaffolding erection to the final clean-up, ensuring minimal disruption to your tenants and operations. We are the best choice because we combine decades of technical expertise with a deep understanding of Manhattan's unique architectural landscape and regulatory environment, delivering results that are both beautiful and built to last.

A compromised roof can lead to extensive interior damage, energy loss, and costly emergencies. For building owners in Manhattan, a durable, weather-tight roofing system is non-negotiable. Our roofing services cater to the diverse architectural needs of the city, from historic flat roofs on brownstones to complex pitched systems on modern commercial buildings. We assess your current roof's condition, recommend the most effective materials—such as EPDM, TPO, or modified bitumen—and execute a flawless installation or repair.

The process involves careful tear-off, deck inspection, proper insulation installation, and meticulous flashing details around penetrations like vents and chimneys. We understand that a roof is more than just shingles or membrane; it's an integrated system. Our team is trained to handle the challenges of working in dense urban environments, ensuring safety and efficiency. Choose AARCO for roofing in Manhattan because we deliver solutions engineered for longevity and performance, backed by a commitment to quality craftsmanship and clear project management that protects your investment.

Masonry and waterproofing are the twin pillars of a building's defense. In Manhattan, water infiltration is a leading cause of interior damage and structural decay. Our integrated approach addresses both the visible masonry and the invisible waterproofing barriers. For masonry, we handle everything from aesthetic tuckpointing to critical structural brickwork, parapet reconstructions, and chimney repairs, using materials and techniques that match your building's historic or modern character.

Simultaneously, our waterproofing specialists target vulnerable areas like below-grade walls, plaza decks, terraces, and window perimeters. We utilize advanced materials and methods—from fluid-applied membranes and sheet systems to proper drainage detailing—to create a seamless barrier against moisture. This service is essential for property managers dealing with chronic leaks or preparing for a Local Law 11 inspection. Our dual expertise ensures that the beauty of your masonry is preserved while its integrity is secured from within. We are the best choice in Manhattan because we offer a holistic solution, eliminating the need to coordinate separate contractors and guaranteeing that the finished work is both visually impeccable and fundamentally sound.
