Scaffolding in NYC, Brooklyn-Based Since 2004

Brooklyn Sidewalk Shed and Scaffolding builds, maintains and takes down scaffolding, sheds, barriers and fencing across all five boroughs. One Brooklyn team handles the job, and we file the DOB paperwork for the work we install. 

Scaffolding rental across all five NYC boroughs

Our crews build and take down every setup, for buildings in Brooklyn, Manhattan, the Bronx, Queens and Staten Island. A brownstone facade in Brooklyn and a tower on Park Avenue get the same team and the same process. 

Who we work for

Property owners and managers with facade, roof or exterior work coming. General contractors who need a scaffold subcontractor that reaches the job's borough. Co-op and condo boards that must show their neighbors who they hired and why.

How a job starts

Send the building address, the borough, what you need and your target start date, and tell us if a permit already exists. We review the details and quote the job.

Our Services

Scaffolding and site protection from one team

A building often needs a sidewalk shed and scaffolding at once. Each piece below links to its page, and our scaffolding services page lists them all.

Supported scaffolds

Crews stand on these and work their way up the facade. We build them from pipe or from frame sections, and the usual jobs are facade repair, repointing and painting.

Suspended scaffolds

When the work runs the full height of a facade, we hang a platform from the roof and the crew rides it from floor to floor.

Pedestrian protection

A shed is a covered walkway over the sidewalk, so pedestrians keep walking while crews work above. We build it to your frontage and file the DOB permit before work starts.

Concrete barriers

When a job spills into the street or a parking lane, we set Jersey barriers between moving cars and your crew.

Site fencing

A fence around the lot keeps the public out and gives crews a protected place to stage materials.

Need scaffolding and a shed on the same building? Call (929) 566-7313 and we price both together.

What clients say

Clients from a Brooklyn brownstone repair and a Manhattan facade repointing job, in their own words.

Dave M

Brooklyn, 2024

Brooklyn Sidewalk Shed and Scaffolding put up a shed for our brownstone repair… The crew showed up on time, kept the walkway clear for neighbors, and took it down as soon as work finished.

Sanjay K.

Manhattan, 2025

We hired Brooklyn Sidewalk Shed and Scaffolding for a facade repointing job on a tight lot. Their team handled the setup smoothly and made the rental process simple.

About Us

One team from quote to removal

You deal with the same people from the site visit to the day the structure comes down. 

  1. We visit the site and price the job.
  2. We file the DOB permit the job needs before work begins. DOB decides every filing, so we promise no outcome. 
  3. The crew sets up the scaffold, shed, barriers or fence.
  4. The same team maintains it through your rental term and takes it down when the work ends.

Based in Brooklyn, working in all five boroughs

We work out of Brooklyn, on blocks where brownstones and rowhouses leave narrow sidewalks. Our 2019 shed at 136 Chester Ave is one example. The same team serves Manhattan, the Bronx, Queens and Staten Island. Read about scaffolding in Brooklyn or see the areas we serve across all five boroughs.
