We Serve Across NYC’s Departments

We don't only deal with these departments for your Alerts but we also deal with these departments for your permitting and inspection work

DEP/DOH/DSNY

These departments often issue violations based on inspections, environmental data, or public complaints to regulate health, environmental, and sanitation standards in NYC. Failure to respond can lead to escalated enforcement actions, legal complications, or operational halts for buildings and businesses. Staying proactive is crucial in avoiding surprises

Risks of Non-Compliance

Violations can stem from noise complaints, improper garbage disposal, or health hazards and may lead to heavy penalties or service disruptions. Even a single unresolved issue can snowball into multiple fines or litigation.

How PBS Helps

1- Violation investigation and response

2- Immediate resolution support for urgent complaints

3- Ongoing Monitoring to avoid repeat infractions

4- Document submission & communication on your behalf

5- Permitting and Expediting services under these departments

DOB

The DOB maintains strict oversight over all constructions, renovations, and occupancy processes in NYC. From structural work to inspections, even minor oversights can trigger violations. Proper documentation and scheduling are essential for seamless project execution and long-term compliance.

Consequences of overlooking Compliance

Unpermitted work, expired documents, or missed inspections can lead to stop-work orders, violations, and legal consequences. DOB violations can also affect building value and refinancing

How PBS Helps

1- Handling of Violation response

2- Tracking of Complaint Status

3- Preparation of supporting documentation and directly liaise with DOB to bring your property back into compliance

4- Expediting and Permitting

ECB

The Environmental Control Board, otherwise known as OATH, handles hearings for over a dozen NYC agencies, including DOB, DOT, FDNY, and more. Many building owners aren’t aware that missing just one hearing can result in default penalties, liens, or added fees. It's essential to have a structured system to track and respond to ECB notices.

What Can Go Wrong

Failure to appear at hearings or respond to notices can result in default penalties, doubled fines, property liens, and collections. Every violation needs timely action.

How PBS Helps

1- Complete Case study with documents

2- Representation of clients at hearings

3- Monitoring of Case statuses

4- Coordination for resolutions across all agencies involved

FDNY

FDNY Compliance isn’t just legal–it’s about life safety. Fire suppression systems, emergency exits, and alarms must meet evolving codes. The Fire Department has many certificates, permits, and periodic inspection requirements. The department's major requirements include, but are not limited to, a five-year sprinkler flow test, annual backflow inspections, fire alarm approvals, Certificates of Fitness, letters of approval, and Certificates of Corrections.

Impact of Non-Compliance

Non-Compliance with FDNY codes can result in violation orders, closures, and massive liability in the event of an incident. Certain businesses even need specific FDNY certifications to operate.

How PBS Helps

1- Compliance Inspections under this department

2- Scheduling of Official inspections

3- Addressing violations

4- Permits, and acquiring Certificates of Fitness and other FDNY-required documents

HPD

The Housing Preservation & Development violations often stem from tenant complaints or random inspections. The department emphasizes safe, livable conditions in multifamily housing. HPD requires annual registration with many codes to abide by.

Why It Matters

HPD violations can make your property ineligible for refinancing or new tenants. Repeated or unaddressed issues can lead to court cases and severe penalties.

How PBS Helps

1- Managing of Tenant Complaints

2- Performing and Scheduling required inspections

3- Submission of correction proofs

4- Handling of registration and compliance filing on your behalf

DOT

The Department of Transportation controls access to public spaces like streets and sidewalks. Whether it's placing a dumpster, installing a scaffold, or fixing a curb, proper DOT permits and compliance documentation are mandatory.

Delays & Fines Without Proper Handling

Work in public spaces without DOT permits can bring immediate violations, stop orders, and project delays. These violations are costly and public-facing

How PBS Helps

1- Securing of DOT Permits

2- Responding to violation notices

3- Performing or coordinating in inspections

4- Avoid project delays through proper expediting
