Question 1

Do you repair sidewalk damage caused by city trees?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we coordinate root pruning with NYC Parks Department guidelines while repairing elevation damage and trip hazards.

Question 2

How much does sidewalk repair cost per square foot?

Accepted Answer

Typically $10-20 per square foot for patch repairs, $15-25 for full flag replacement depending on location and access.

Question 3

How long do sidewalk repairs take to complete?

Accepted Answer

Individual flag repairs take 1-2 days including curing time. Multiple flags may require 3-5 days depending on scope.

Question 4

Can you match existing sidewalk color and finish?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we custom-match concrete mix designs and brooming techniques to blend seamlessly with existing adjacent sidewalk sections.

Question 5

Do I need a permit for sidewalk repair?

Accepted Answer

Yes, sidewalk repairs require DOT permits. We handle all permit applications and coordinate inspections for you.

Question 6

What is a NYC DOT Sidewalk Violation and how do I clear it?

Accepted Answer

A DOT violation is issued under NYC Administrative Code §19-152 for trip hazards, cracked flags, or improper slope. To clear it, a licensed contractor must pull street opening permits, replace defective concrete, and submit a formal dismissal request.

Question 7

How much time do property owners have to repair a DOT sidewalk citation?

Accepted Answer

Property owners have 75 days from the notice date to complete repairs. If ignored, the City may dispatch its own contractor to perform the work at premium municipal rates and place a tax lien on the property.

Question 8

What concrete strength is required by NYC Department of Transportation?

Accepted Answer

NYC DOT specifications mandate a minimum compressive strength of 4,000 PSI with 6% air entrainment, poured 4 inches thick for pedestrian walkways and 7 inches thick across active driveways.

Question 9

Who is responsible for sidewalk damage caused by City street tree roots?

Accepted Answer

While adjacent property owners must maintain safe sidewalks, repairs involving City street trees require coordination with the NYC Department of Parks & Recreation for root pruning permits. We handle all agency coordination.

Question 10

Do you handle DOB violations for illegal basement entries or foundation defects?

Accepted Answer

Yes, our foundation team pulls DOB permits, executes code-compliant structural remediation, secures Special Inspection Agency sign-offs, and files AEU-2 Certificates of Correction.
