Property owners typically have 75 days from the date they receive a Notice of Sidewalk Violation to start and complete repairs.
If repairs aren’t done within that 75-day period, the city may hire a contractor to fix the sidewalk and bill the owner for the work. That cost can include administrative fees and, if unpaid, may lead to a lien on the property.
If you believe the violation was incorrect (for example, the defects aren’t actually present), you can request a re-inspection or appeal. That’s usually done through NYC311 within the same 75-day period. The DOT will then schedule a re-inspection to reassess.
Take the first step toward clearing your NYC DOT sidewalk violation with confidence. Our team will review your violation, inspect the sidewalk, and provide a clear, DOT-compliant repair plan—fast, accurate, and obligation-free.
