How it works
Done fast and done right. We make it easy.
Seven steps, the same every time. You know where the job stands at each one.
Consultation
A free consultation to walk through what’s open on the property and whether we’re the right fit.
All Boro estimate
We research your violation and give you an estimate for the project, so there are no surprises about cost from day one.
Research the property
The cited condition has to be documented and drawn up in a form the Department of Buildings will accept.
Create a work plan
We assemble the work plan: the time, the team and the budget for each task, plus any fines or expediting that need attention before the job can move forward.
Expediting (20–45 days)
Along with the drafted plans comes a large amount of DOB paperwork that has to be completed before the next step.
Submit the paperwork to ECB and DOB
Filing a job is often the hardest part of an expediter’s work: bringing the professional’s drafts and documentation to the DOB, getting it accepted and keeping it moving.
The violation is dismissed
Your job is done right and the violation is cleared. We send you an email with the link to the record on DOB’s website.
The agencies
Who you’re dealing with
Most jobs touch more than one agency. These are the three that come up most.
Housing Preservation & Development
The New York City department responsible for developing and maintaining the city’s stock of affordable housing, and for housing maintenance violations.
Department of Buildings
Enforces the city’s building codes and zoning regulations, and issues building permits and licenses.
Environmental Control Board
An administrative tribunal, now a division of the NYC Office of Administrative Trials and Hearings (OATH), that hears civil penalty cases.
