Ignoring Sidewalk Repairs Can Lead to Big Problems
Even if the NYC Department of Transportation (DOT) hasn’t flagged your sidewalk for violations, cracks, uneven surfaces, or broken pavement can still be a serious hazard.
Damaged sidewalks don’t just create safety risks, they can also lead to injuries, lawsuits, and costly claims for property owners.
According to the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act), sidewalks must be accessible to everyone, including those with disabilities.
Uneven or broken pavement creates obstacles for wheelchair users, individuals with walkers, and those with visual impairments. Failing to meet ADA standards can lead to legal issues and hefty fines.
Ignoring small cracks now can lead to major repairs later. A trip-and-fall accident could mean expensive medical bills, legal fees, and liability claims against you as the property owner.
The good news? Routine inspections and timely repairs can prevent these problems before they start. Contact FY Sidewalk today for an inspection and a hassle-free solution!

Property owners are responsible for maintaining the sidewalk adjacent to their property, even though it is public property. The NYC DOT can issue a violation requiring repairs within 75 days. Failure to comply results in city-imposed repairs billed to the property owner — typically at higher rates than a private contractor.
Sidewalks next to one-, two-, and three-family residential properties may qualify for free repair if damaged by city-owned tree roots. The NYC DOT will inspect the site to determine eligibility. A request for free repairs can be submitted here.
FY Sidewalk typically completes DOT violation repairs within 5 to 10 business days after permit approval. We handle all permit applications and coordinate directly with DOT inspectors for final sign-off.

Yes. FY Sidewalk provides sidewalk repair services across all five NYC boroughs: Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. We have completed over 2,000 projects citywide since 2005.
If a DOT sidewalk violation is not resolved within 75 days, the NYC Department of Transportation will perform the repairs and bill the property owner. City-imposed repairs are generally more expensive than hiring a licensed private contractor. Additionally, property owners remain liable for any injuries that occur on a damaged sidewalk.
