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 the last digit of your building's block number. Sub-cycle 10A covers blocks ending in 4, 5, 6, or 9 from February 21, 2025 to February 21, 2027; 10B covers 0, 7, or 8 from February 21, 2026 to February 21, 2028; and 10C covers 1, 2, or 3 from February 21, 2027 to February 21, 2029.
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.
