Common Sidewalk Problems We Fix in Brooklyn Heights
- Tree root heave on the neighbourhood's historic, tree-lined blocks — Brooklyn Heights has some of the oldest street trees in Brooklyn, and root-driven slab displacement is the primary cause of DOT violations in the area
- Stoop and entry step damage on Federal-style and Italianate townhouses — the junction between historic stoops and public sidewalks is a recurring problem on 19th-century buildings
- High pedestrian volume along Montague Street and near the Promenade — tourist and commuter foot traffic accelerates wear on commercial frontages
- DOT violations on converted brownstones and pre-war apartment buildings, many of which have not had sidewalk work since the mid-20th century
- Basement-level access damage — many Brooklyn Heights buildings have below-grade entrances with sidewalk cellar doors and surrounding concrete that deteriorates independently

Yes. We repair the concrete aprons around basement-level access doors, which deteriorate separately from the main sidewalk surface. This is a common issue on Brooklyn Heights townhouses.
