Exterior Services in Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens & Staten Island

Your building's exterior takes the full beating of New York weather — freeze-thaw cycles, driving rain, and summer heat — and small failures become expensive ones fast. M&M GC Contractor Inc has been performing exterior work across Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island since 2001: facade restoration and repointing, masonry repair, deck construction, and siding replacement.

Because we're a full general contractor, exterior projects get the same project management as our interior renovations: proper staging, protection for the property, clean daily sites, and work that's built to last, not just to photograph well on day one.

Facades and masonry that stand up to NYC weather

Deteriorated mortar joints, spalling brick, cracked brownstone, and failing parapets are the most common exterior problems we see. We repoint masonry with proper mortar matching, replace damaged brick and stone, rebuild parapets, restore cornices and window surrounds, and apply breathable waterproofing where appropriate.

For larger buildings, we also handle facade inspection compliance work — including repairs flagged under the city's Facade Inspection & Safety Program (FISP, formerly Local Law 11) — so violations get cleared properly and documented.

Decks, siding, and full exterior makeovers

We build custom wood and composite decks with proper footings, flashing, and railings built to code — including DOB permits where required. For siding, we install fiber-cement, vinyl, and wood cladding systems with correct weather barriers and trim details that keep water out and look sharp for decades.

Many of our exterior projects combine several scopes: a new deck plus repointed masonry, or fresh siding with rebuilt stoops and new railings. One crew, one schedule, one finished property.

Why homeowners and businesses choose M&M

• Licensed & insured general contractor operating in New York City since 2001 — over two decades of finished jobs, not promises.
• Big jobs only. We do full renovations, kitchens, bathrooms, brownstones, waterproofing, roofing, commercial and exterior work. We don't do handyman calls, which means your project gets a real crew and real project management.
• In-house crews for demolition, framing, drywall, flooring, electrical and plumbing — fewer subcontractors, fewer delays, one accountable team.
• NYC building know-how: DOB permits, co-op and condo board packages, Landmarks Preservation Commission approvals, occupied-building logistics — we've done it hundreds of times.
• Direct line to the owner. Call (917) 251-9318 and you talk to the people actually running your job.

How your project runs, start to finish

1. Consultation & site visit. We walk the space, listen to what you want, and flag anything structural, code-related, or permit-related up front.
2. Detailed scope & estimate. You get a clear written scope and a firm price — no allowances hiding the real number, no surprise change orders later.
3. Construction. Our in-house crews handle demolition through final finishes. The site stays clean, protected, and on schedule, with one point of contact throughout.
4. Final walkthrough. We go through every detail together before sign-off. If something isn't right, we fix it. That's the "built on trust since 2001" part.

Common questions

What is FISP / Local Law 11 and does it affect my building?

New York City requires periodic facade inspections for buildings over six stories. If an inspection flags unsafe conditions, the repairs must be done and documented. We perform the repair work and provide the documentation your architect or engineer needs for filing.

Do I need a permit for a new deck?

In most cases, yes — decks require DOB permits in NYC. We handle the permit application as part of the project.

What siding material do you recommend?

Fiber-cement is the best balance of durability, appearance, and maintenance for most NYC homes. We'll walk you through the options and pricing during the estimate.
