What We Do
Missing or expired sidewalk shed permits and unsafe scaffold installations trigger serious DOT violations with daily fines. We renew permits, repair or safely dismantle non-compliant structures, and coordinate DOT compliance inspections to clear your record fast.
NYC law requires a licensed contractor to erect, maintain, and remove scaffolding under permit. Expired permits are one of the most common — and most expensive — DOT violations in the city. Our team handles the full permit cycle, performs any required structural repairs, and can manage emergency dismantling when an unsafe condition order has been issued. We work around your tenants and building operations to minimize disruption.
- Sidewalk shed permit renewal & new filings
