Facade Restoration in Brooklyn, NY and the Surrounding Areas

Q: Is façade restoration required by New York City law?

Yes — especially for buildings over 6 stories.Under Local Law 11 (FISP), owners must maintain façades to prevent falling debris and safety hazards. Unsafe conditions must be fixed quickly to avoid fines and sidewalk shed mandates.

Q: What’s the difference between repointing and tuckpointing?

Repointing replaces damaged or missing mortar to maintain structural stability. Tuckpointing is more decorative — giving mortar lines a sharp, uniform look. Both improve safety, durability, and curb appeal.
