HPD Violation Removal in NYC

HPD violations come from tenant complaints — which means they come with angry tenants, reinspection deadlines, and violations that multiply if the underlying condition isn't really fixed. We clear HPD violations across all five boroughs: our crews correct the condition properly, and we handle the dismissal process.

The HPD Violations That Pile Up

HPD organizes violations by class — A (non-hazardous), B (hazardous), and C (immediately hazardous) — each with its own correction deadline. Miss the deadline and HPD can correct the condition itself and bill you through the Emergency Repair Program, often at eye-watering cost. The violations we clear most:

Mold and moisture — not just wiping it down: finding the leak or ventilation failure behind it and fixing that, so it doesn't come back before reinspection
Heat and hot water — boiler and heating system cures coordinated fast, because C-class heat violations don't wait
Lead-based paint — lead-safe work practices for pre-1960 buildings, with documentation HPD accepts
Plaster, paint, and general disrepair — the B-class violations that accumulate across a portfolio
Pests, leaks, and plumbing defects — corrected at the source, not patched over
Window guards, smoke/CO detectors, and safety devices — quick cures that still need proper dismissal

Why "Fixed" Isn't Enough — the Reinspection Problem

HPD doesn't take your word for it. Violations clear when HPD reinspects and confirms the correction — or when you submit proper proof through the dismissal process. This is where cheap patch jobs fail: the mold was painted over instead of remediated, the leak behind it still active, and the inspector writes it up again — sometimes worse than before. Our crews fix the underlying condition, document the work, and we manage the dismissal side so the violation actually comes off the record.

Portfolio Owners: Stop the Whack-a-Mole

If you run multiple buildings, HPD violations are a volume game — complaint-driven, scattered across units, each with its own clock. We do portfolio violation management: one point of contact, violations triaged by deadline and severity, crews dispatched across your buildings, and dismissals tracked to confirmation. If you're getting our DOB violation or OATH hearing help already, HPD folds into the same relationship.

What happens if I ignore an HPD violation?

HPD can do the work itself under the Emergency Repair Program and bill you — typically far more than hiring your own contractor. Uncorrected violations also support tenant harassment claims and HP court actions. Ignoring them is the most expensive option.

How fast do C-class violations need to be fixed?

Immediately hazardous violations have the shortest fuse — sometimes 24 hours for heat/hot water in season. Call us the day you get the notice, not the week after.

Can you handle mold so it passes reinspection?

Yes — that's the core of it. Surface cleaning fails reinspection when the moisture source is still there. We remediate the mold and fix the source: leaks, ventilation, waterproofing.

Do you work in all five boroughs?

Yes — Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx, and Staten Island.
