Carrying out the facade repair work identified in an inspection report, alongside your engineer.
Waystar carries out this work on residential and commercial property in Brooklyn and across New York City. Every project starts with a look at the building, and the scope, the materials and the figures are written down before anything begins.
When might you need it?
These are the signs owners usually notice first.
- An inspection report listing conditions that need addressing
- A building filed in a condition that requires remedial work
- Sidewalk shed in place and costing money every month it stays
- Several separate defects that need coordinating on one access
- A board or owner who needs the work priced against the report
What the work involves
- Review of the inspection report and the conditions listed
- Site walk with your engineer where that helps
- Access designed to reach every cited location
- Repairs priced item by item against the report
- Masonry, parapet, lintel, coping and pointing work carried out
- Photographic record of completed items for your engineer
How the process works
Read the report with you
Every cited item is located and understood before anything is priced.
Coordinate with your engineer
The engineer specifies and signs off; we carry out the work to that specification.
Plan the access once
Sidewalk shed and scaffold time are a real monthly cost, so the programme is built around reducing it.
Repair and document
Each item is completed and photographed for the record your engineer needs.
What you get
- Repairs mapped directly to the items in your report
- One access setup serving all the cited locations
- A documented record to support your engineer at re filing
What affects the scope
- Number and severity of the conditions cited
- Building height and the access required
- How long protective equipment must remain in place
- Coordination with the engineer and any filing deadlines
This is a preliminary planning range, not a quote. A property visit is required before any price is confirmed.
Frequently asked questions
Can Waystar carry out the inspection?
No. The inspection and the report must be carried out by a qualified inspector under the city requirements. Waystar carries out the repair work that follows.
Can you sign off the work?
No. Sign off and re filing sit with your engineer. We provide the completed work and a photographic record to support that.
Can the sidewalk shed come down sooner?
Shed time is driven by the programme and by your engineer sign off. Planning the repairs around one access setup is what shortens it.
