Local Law 11 / FISP Repairs in NYC

Owning or managing a building in New York City means the façade can never be an afterthought. Loose brick, worn mortar joints, cracked parapets and rusting lintels can start as small issues and turn into expensive repairs if they are left alone.

Local Law 11, also known as the Façade Inspection & Safety Program (FISP), applies to buildings over six stories. The inspection itself is handled by a qualified exterior wall inspector, but once repair work is identified, you need a contractor who understands what the engineer is asking for and can actually execute it in the field.

S&J NY Construction Inc. works on façade repair projects throughout New York City. We handle brick replacement, repointing, lintel repairs, window sills, parapet walls, coping, stucco repairs, waterproof coatings, concrete restoration and other exterior masonry work.

We are comfortable working from an engineer's scope, marked-up photos or repair drawings. Our goal is simple: complete the work properly, keep the job organized and make it easier for the owner and engineer to move the building toward compliance.

If you already have a Local Law 11 report or repair scope, send it over. We can review the work, visit the property and put together a clear proposal for the repairs.
