Landscaping in New York: what's different here

New York is a city of buildings, not houses: pre-war co-ops and condos, brownstones, and 1920s–1960s apartment stock where steam heat, risers and shared walls shape every repair.

What it costs here: Building rules carry more cost than labor here. Certificate-of-insurance requirements, elevator-protection fees, work-hour limits and doorman scheduling routinely add hundreds to a job.

Where landscapers work in New York

Jobs come from across Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, Manhattan, Staten Island and the surrounding blocks. Post with your ZIP code and nearby landscapers who cover your neighborhood see it.

Permits and rules in New York

The NYC Department of Buildings permits the work

Plumbing, electrical and structural work needs a DOB filing by a licensed professional, and co-op or condo boards usually require their own alteration agreement too.

Building access decides the schedule

Steam risers, water shutoffs and roof access need super or management approval, so get the building's rules in writing before a pro books the day.
