About Brooklyn Sidewalk Shed and Scaffolding

We are a Brooklyn-based scaffolding and sidewalk shed company, and we have been putting up and taking down site protection on New York City buildings since 2004. We work in all five boroughs: Brooklyn, Manhattan, the Bronx, Queens, and Staten Island.

Building owners, property managers, and general contractors call us when a job needs scaffolding, a sidewalk shed, jersey barriers, or temporary fencing. Many exterior projects require two or more of these systems at once. By providing full site setup from a single source, we simplify project management, reduce staging conflicts, and keep job sites moving on schedule.

What We Do

We install temporary structures for facade repairs, new construction, building inspections, and emergency site protection. Our main services include:

Sidewalk Sheds

Covered walkways designed to shield pedestrians from overhead work and falling debris during exterior building projects.

Scaffolding Systems

Pipe scaffolding, frame scaffolding, and suspended scaffolding setups engineered for facade work, masonry repair, repointing, and painting.

Jersey Barriers

Concrete barriers used to establish safe work zones along curbs, streets, and active parking areas.

Temporary Fencing

Chain-link site fencing and perimeter barriers designed to secure construction zones and control site access.

Because we handle all four area protection types, one contractor can manage your sidewalk protection, building access, and perimeter security under a single agreement. You can explore all our options on our scaffolding services page.

One Team From Quote to Removal

We do not use sub-contractors or third-party installation teams. The estimators who inspect your building and price the job are part of the same company that manages the crew on site.

When you work with us, you work with one dedicated point of contact throughout the project:

Site Inspection & Quoting

We evaluate your building frontage, review project scope, and provide a clear quote.

Permitting Support

We verify necessary DOB and DOT requirements before erection begins.

Equipment Installation

Our field crew builds the scaffold, shed, or fencing according to NYC code standards.

Maintenance & Dismantling

We keep the setup secure throughout your rental period and dismantle everything promptly when your work ends.

This direct line of communication keeps your project organized and prevents handoff errors between separate vendors.

Based in Brooklyn, Working Across New York City

Our home base is in Brooklyn, which gives us firsthand experience with narrow streets, tight lot lines, and historic brownstone blocks. We understand how local building layouts affect equipment delivery and setup.

At the same time, municipal rules set by the NYC Department of Buildings (DOB) and the Department of Transportation (DOT) apply across the entire city. Whether your building is a residential rowhouse in Park Slope, a commercial facade in Midtown Manhattan, or a multi-family development in the Bronx, we adapt our setup to match the exact requirements of your property and block. You can see the specific areas we cover on our NYC service areas page.

Licensed, Insured, and Crew-Certified

Proper licensing and site safety certifications are essential for working on NYC properties. We maintain all active municipal requirements to ensure full legal compliance on every job:

  • Licensed by the NYC Department of Buildings (DOB)
  • Licensed by the NYC Department of Consumer and Worker Protection (DCWP) as a Home Improvement Contractor
  • $2 million general liability insurance coverage
  • Experienced crews holding OSHA, NASP/SSS, and NYC Site Safety Training (SST) certifications
  • Serving New York City property owners since 2004
