A selection of our successful garage restoration and Local Law 126 compliance work.
Common signs include water leaking through ceilings or walls, concrete cracking or spalling (flaking/chipping), exposed and rusting rebar (steel reinforcements), ponding water on floor slabs, and deterioration of expansion joints. Addressing these issues early can prevent more costly structural damage.
The timeline varies significantly based on the garage's size and the extent of the damage. Minor repairs might take a few weeks, while a full-scale rehabilitation project can take several months. We create detailed, phased work plans to minimize disruption and complete the project efficiently.
NYC Local Law 126 of 2021 mandates that owners of parking structures have them periodically inspected by a Qualified Parking Structure Inspector (QPSI). This is to ensure they are structurally sound and safe for public use. Compliance is critical to avoid violations, fines, and potential safety hazards.
Yes, in most cases. A key part of our service is developing a phased restoration plan. This allows us to work on one section at a time, keeping the rest of the garage open to tenants and visitors. Our goal is always to minimize inconvenience while ensuring a safe work environment.
We stand by our work with a comprehensive workmanship warranty. As certified applicators for leading manufacturers like Sika and BASF, we are also able to furnish the maximum manufacturer's warranties on materials used, such as waterproofing membranes and repair mortars, giving you long-term peace of mind.
