    Manhattan Building Inspection FAQ

    How much does a facade inspection cost in Manhattan?

    Facade inspection costs in Manhattan vary based on building height, number of facades, and accessibility. High-rise buildings in Midtown typically cost more due to scaffolding and swing stage requirements. Contact us for a free assessment and transparent pricing.

    What is the FISP deadline for Manhattan buildings?

    FISP Cycle 10 deadlines are based on your building's block number. Manhattan buildings are spread across Sub-Cycles A, B, and C with deadlines from 2022 through 2027. Check your specific deadline or call us to verify your building's filing window.

    Do pre-war buildings in Manhattan need facade inspections?

    Yes. Any building over 6 stories in Manhattan must comply with FISP regardless of age. Pre-war buildings often require additional attention due to deteriorating terra cotta, limestone, and brick facades that are common in older Manhattan construction.

    How long does a Manhattan building inspection take?

    Field inspections typically take 1-5 days depending on building size and complexity. The full process from scheduling through DOB filing usually takes 4-8 weeks. For high-rises above 20 stories, allow additional time for swing stage setup.
