One vendor. Zero liability.
The ultimate façade partner.
Big Apple provides NYC property managers with a single, elite, in-house team to maintain your entire building envelope.
The façade needs of NYC property managers
Managing a building in New York means facing strict DOB requirements, demanding boards, and high-risk environments. We specialize in taking these headaches off your desk.
Scaffolding-free access
Eliminate expensive sidewalk sheds.
Whether it’s a 50-story tower or a historic courtyard, we deploy SPRAT-certified rope access and an owned fleet of aerial lifts (up to 300′) to reach any height safely. We save your budget by avoiding costly scaffolding rentals.
FISP / Local Law 11 compliance
Stay ahead of DOB issues.
We provide physical access for your QEWI, assist with masonry sounding, and perform immediate make-safe mitigation to address SWARMP conditions and help avoid costly city penalties.
Unified vendor logistics
One call solves it all.
Stop coordinating between a cleaning crew, a glazier, and a rigging team. Your dedicated account manager handles the schedule for cleaning, repairs, and inspections, reducing back-and-forth communication.
VIP tenant satisfaction
We respect your residents.
We understand the demands of luxury co-ops and condos. Our white-glove interior protocols, strict scheduling, and uniformed, background-checked technicians help minimize disruption for tenants.
Comprehensive building services
