Why owners call us
A sidewalk problem does not stay a sidewalk problem
In New York City the sidewalk in front of your building is your responsibility, including what happens to anyone who trips on it.
The DOT clock is already running
A Notice of Violation gives you 75 days to cure the defect. Miss it and the city can do the work itself and bill the property.
The violation follows the deed
An open sidewalk violation shows on the property record and turns up at exactly the wrong moment: refinancing, selling, or a title search.
Trip-and-fall liability sits with you
Raised flags, tree-root lifts and spalled concrete are the injuries that become claims against the owner, not the city.
Permits, DOT spec, inspection: a full-time job
Getting it wrong means paying twice: once for the pour, again for the re-do when the inspector fails it.
What it looks like when we handle it
- We walk the sidewalk, measure the flags, and price it per square foot in writing.
- We file the DOT permit under our licence, so nothing lands in your inbox.
- Old concrete out, sub-base compacted, new slabs poured to DOT thickness and finish.
- Site swept and reopened; we stay on it through inspection until the violation closes.
- Leave your details and we reply the same business day.
The rules, in plain English
What the City actually requires of you
Every number below comes from the City’s own published rules, not from us. The links are at the bottom of our violation guide so you can check them yourself.
- Who has to fix a broken sidewalk in NYC?
- The property owner does. In New York City the owner is responsible for maintaining, repairing and installing the sidewalk next to their property. That stays true no matter what caused the damage.
- How long do I have to fix a sidewalk violation?
- 75 days from the date on the notice. The clock starts the day the Sidewalk Violation Notice is issued. It is not a reminder date. It is the deadline.
- What happens if I miss the 75 days?
- The City can do the work and send you the bill. If the repair is not done in time, the City may repair the sidewalk itself and bill the property. An unpaid bill can turn into a lien, which then shows up when you sell or refinance.
- Does my contractor need a licence?
- Yes, for any job over $200. Work above $200 needs a Home Improvement Contractor licence from the Department of Consumer and Worker Protection (DCWP) to be legal in New York City. Ask to see it before you sign anything.
- A City tree broke my sidewalk. Do I still pay?
- For 1-, 2- and 3-family homes, usually not. The City no longer issues violations for sidewalk damage caused only by a City tree at 1-, 2- and 3-family homes, and it cancelled existing violations and liens in those cases. Commercial buildings, co-ops, condos and properties with four or more units are not covered.
- How does the violation come off my record?
- A dismissal inspection has to be filed after the work. Once a licensed contractor finishes, you submit a sidewalk violation dismissal inspection using your violation number and the construction permit number. DOT re-inspects and closes the file. Skip this step and the violation stays open even though the concrete is new.

Our Sidewalk Repair Process
We make sidewalk repair in NYC simple and hassle-free.
Every project follows four clear steps, ensuring quality,
safety, and compliance from start to finish.
That is the range most NYC sidewalk repairs land in. Where yours falls depends on square footage, slab thickness, tree-root damage, curb work and access. We measure before we quote, so the estimate you get is the number, not a starting point.
Free, on-site, no obligation. We measure the flags and put the price in writing.

Your risk
You are not committing to anything by calling
Free estimate, no obligation
We measure the sidewalk and give you a written price. If you want to think about it or get another quote, that is a normal thing to do.
Permit filing included
The DOT filing goes under our licence at no extra charge. You do not chase paperwork, and you do not pay twice if an inspector wants something changed on our work.
We follow it to dismissal
The pour is not the finish line. We stay on the file through re-inspection until the violation comes off the property record.
