Manhattan Sidewalk Shed
Rental Services
Every type of Manhattan building and every type of project — our full-service shed rental covers the full spectrum of Manhattan construction needs.
Pre-war co-ops, brownstones, townhouses, and landmark buildings throughout Manhattan. We're experienced with the strict DOB requirements and Landmarks Preservation Commission guidelines that govern many Manhattan properties.
Midtown office towers, hotel facades, retail corridors on Fifth Avenue and Broadway. We design minimal-footprint sheds that maintain the maximum accessible sidewalk width in Manhattan's high-traffic areas.
Manhattan has the highest concentration of FISP-subject buildings in NYC. We specialize in LL11 shed systems, coordinating directly with your facade engineer to meet inspection and repair access requirements on any Manhattan building cycle.
Full gut renovations, roofing, masonry repointing, window replacement, and facade waterproofing projects across all Manhattan neighborhoods. We manage the shed for the entire duration of your construction schedule.
DOB violation or emergency safety order on your Manhattan property? We prioritize emergency deployments borough-wide. Call us and we'll begin permit filing the same day — installation within 24–48 hours of approval.
Continuous shed systems for high-rise towers, full-block developments, and multi-building Manhattan portfolios. Volume discounts available for property managers and developers with multiple active projects.
