We engineer, permit, install, and remove sidewalk sheds and pipe scaffolding across the five boroughs — so your facade work moves forward and the sidewalk below stays open.
Overhead protection, start to finish
We are specialists, not a general contractor that dabbles. Sidewalk sheds and pipe scaffolding are all we build — which is why every job is engineered, filed, and installed to code the first time.
Heavy-duty and light-duty overhead protection for facade repair, roof work, demolition, and unsafe-condition orders. Engineered decks, lit underside, clear pedestrian path maintained throughout.
Tube-and-clamp access scaffold built to the shape of your building — setbacks, cornices, courtyards, and light wells included. Tied, braced, and inspected on a documented schedule.
Sealed shop drawings, DOB NOW filings, permit renewals, and sign-off at removal. You get one point of contact and a paper trail that holds up on inspection day.
We already build it. New York's updated rules move the city away from the dark green tunnel: more light beneath, more headroom, and colors that don't make a block feel abandoned. We build to the current standard from day one — no retrofits later.
Most owners hear about us the week an inspection report lands. Here is exactly what happens next.
We walk the frontage, measure the sidewalk, note vaults, cellar doors, hydrants, and trees, and photograph the facade condition.
Sealed drawings and the DOB NOW permit application, with your work permit and insurance certificates assembled in one package.
Crews build overnight or off-peak where required. Pedestrian path stays open, lighting is energized the same day.
Documented inspections, graffiti and damage repair, permit renewals — then a clean removal and sign-off when the work is done.
An unpermitted or non-conforming shed generates ECB violations, stop-work exposure, and a hearing calendar you did not plan for. Every Ambedo installation is filed, inspected, and documented so the shed is the part of your project nobody has to worry about.
Send the address and the scope. We will come back with linear footage, a filing timeline, and a fixed number — usually within one business day.
