local law 11 facade inspection

Your brick and stone facade is the first line of defense against Queens's harsh weather, and it's also a key part of your property's curb appeal and value. Our expert masonry team specializes in the complete restoration and repair of brick walls, parapets, and stonework. We address the root causes of deterioration, whether it's failing mortar joints, spalling bricks, or structural movement.

Our comprehensive masonry services include traditional tuck-pointing and brick pointing to restore structural integrity and weatherproofing, parapet wall reconstruction, custom color mortar matching for historic properties, and pressure washing to revitalize your building's appearance. We are particularly adept at navigating NYC's Local Law 11 (FISP) cycle, ensuring your facade not only looks great but passes critical inspections. Using meticulous techniques and the highest quality materials, we guarantee work that stands the test of time and protects your investment.

By stopping leaks at their source, we protect your building's foundation, interior spaces, and the health of its occupants.

A damaged sidewalk or failing concrete balcony isn't just an eyesore; it's a significant liability and safety hazard for your tenants and the public in Queens. Our licensed concrete repair team is highly experienced in fully restoring sidewalks, balconies, and other concrete elements to like-new condition, all while efficiently managing the NYC Department of Buildings (DOB) violation process.

We begin with a thorough inspection to assess the steel reinforcement and concrete integrity.

We handle all aspects, from securing the necessary permits to constructing compliant sidewalk sheds and scaffolding for safety. More importantly, we resolve the underlying DOB violation, providing you with the certification needed to clear your property record and eliminate fines.
