FAQ

Sidewalk Shed Rental
Questions Answered

Our rental price covers everything: NYC DOB permit filing, PE-stamped structural drawings, delivery of materials, professional installation by OSHA-certified crews, periodic maintenance inspections, and full removal with DOB permit closeout at the end of the rental period. There are no hidden fees.
Permitting typically takes 1–3 weeks depending on the NYC DOB's current workload. Once the permit is approved, installation usually takes 1–2 days for standard residential buildings. We offer expedited permit services for urgent timelines.
Rental pricing depends on your building's frontage, number of stories, site access, and rental duration. A standard 25-foot brownstone shed starts from approximately $1,500–$2,500/month all-in. Larger commercial or multi-story buildings are priced individually. Call us for a free written quote.
Yes — 100%. We file the sidewalk shed permit application with the NYC DOB, coordinate the required PE or RA sign-off, and obtain the sidewalk usage permit from NYC DOT where required. We also handle permit renewals if your project runs longer than 12 months.
Yes, we offer short-term rental options starting from one month. However, because permitting takes 1–3 weeks, very short-term projects may find the overall cost less efficient. We'll advise you on the best structure during your free consultation.
