Paperwork, not just pipe

Survey to strike, in order
How a job runs

We walk the building, measure, photograph the conditions and check access, egress, vault lines and neighboring properties.

Filing
Permit applications and supporting drawings prepared and filed, and adjoining-owner notices where the scope calls for them.
Erection
Delivered and built on schedule, coordinated with the GC's sequence so we're not in the way of the trade behind us.
Service
Inspections on schedule, repairs and lighting maintained, permit renewals filed for as long as the structure stands.
Strike
Dismantled, hauled, sidewalk and facade left clean, and the close-out paperwork handed to your project file.

Scaffolding & Sidewalk Shed FAQs.
Generally yes if you're doing construction, demolition or facade work on a taller building, and in most cases where debris could reach the sidewalk below. The thresholds are set by the NYC Department of Buildings and depend on building height and the type of work. Send us the scope and address and we'll tell you what's required before you file anything.
Pricing is driven by linear footage or square footage, the height and complexity of the structure, how long it stands, site access, and whether permits and engineering are included. Sheds are usually quoted with an erection charge plus a monthly rental. We survey the site and give you a written number with the term and inclusions spelled out , no phone estimates.
Yes. We prepare and file the permit applications and supporting drawings, coordinate the sign-offs, and track monthly renewals so nothing lapses while your structure is standing. Owners and boards get copies for the project file.
Pipe scaffold , tube and clamp , is built from the ground up and can be shaped around setbacks, cornices and irregular facades. Suspended scaffold hangs from the roof on outriggers or parapet clamps and moves vertically, which makes it the practical choice on tall buildings where a ground-supported structure would be impossible or uneconomical. Height, duration and the trade doing the work usually decide it.
Straightforward jobs are often surveyed within a day or two and erected shortly after filing clears. Emergency conditions , a stop-work order, falling material, an unsafe facade , get mobilized ahead of everything else. Filing time is usually the longest variable, and we'll tell you upfront what to expect for your scope.
Yes. We perform pre-use, periodic and post-incident inspections on third-party equipment and issue written reports with photo documentation. If we find something, you get a repair recommendation and a price, not just a finding.
Yes. We carry general liability, workers' compensation and disability coverage, and we issue certificates naming owners, boards, managing agents and general contractors as required. Send us your insurance requirements and we'll confirm compliance before we mobilize.
