In New York City, property maintenance isn’t just about curb appeal — it’s about safety, compliance, and responsibility. With thousands of aging buildings across the five boroughs, maintaining the structural integrity and safety of façades has become a critical priority.
At Express Construction USA INC, we specialize in façade restoration, DOB code compliance, and Local Law 11 (FISP) repairs, helping property owners, engineers, and management companies meet city regulations while preserving building value and appearance.
🧱 Understanding Local Law 11 (FISP)
Local Law 11, also known as the Façade Inspection Safety Program (FISP), is a NYC Department of Buildings requirement for buildings six stories or higher. Every five years, owners must have a Qualified Exterior Wall Inspector (QEWI) assess the building façade and file a report identifying any unsafe or potentially unsafe conditions.
Failure to comply can result in DOB violations, heavy fines, and safety hazards.
That’s where we come in.
