Manhattan facade repair, Local Law 11, masonry & roofing
Co-ops, condos, walk-ups, townhouses and commercial buildings — where facade work, parapets and violation cleanup are part of owning property.
In Manhattan, masonry work often comes with extra layers: co-op and condo boards, managing agents, tight access, sidewalk sheds, and Local Law 11 facade inspections for taller buildings.
We work with owners, boards and property managers on facade repairs, parapets, roof and terrace waterproofing, flat roofs and sidewalk repairs — and coordinate with your engineer or architect when a filing or inspection report is involved.

Manhattan questions
Do you perform Local Law 11 / FISP repairs in Manhattan?
Yes. We perform the facade repair work called for in your QEWI’s report — repointing, brick replacement, parapets, lintels and more — and coordinate with your engineer or architect.
Do you work with managing agents and co-op or condo boards?
Yes. We provide written, itemized proposals that can be shared with owners and boards, and schedule around building rules and access.
Do townhouses need annual parapet observations?
Many do. NYC’s parapet rule covers buildings with parapets fronting a public right-of-way regardless of height, except detached one- or two-family homes. See our parapet guide.
