Sidewalks, Curbs & Roadways Services

Commercial property owners in NYC are legally responsible for the sidewalks in front of their buildings. As a result, cracked, uneven, or damaged sidewalks can lead to DOT violations, fines, and liability exposure.

Key services include:

  • Sidewalk crack repair and slab replacement

  • ADA-compliant pedestrian ramp installation
  • NYCDOT violation resolution

Vaulted Sidewalks & Structural Reinforcing

Vaulted sidewalks are common in older NYC commercial buildings — particularly in Manhattan — and require specialist contractors to repair or replace safely. Unlike standard sidewalks, they are supported by underground vault structures that carry both pedestrian loads and the weight of the surface above.

Malatesta Paladino specializes in vaulted sidewalk repair, full vault replacement, and structural reinforcing for commercial properties across New York City. Moreover, all work is completed with the waterproofing and membrane systems needed to protect the underground space below.

Key services include:

  • Vaulted sidewalk repair and full vault replacement
  • Structural steel reinforcing and shoring
  • Traffic-bearing membrane installation over vaults
  • Load capacity upgrades

Waterproofing contractors in NYC, Malatesta Paladino, providing building envelope protection, traffic-bearing membranes, and caulking services.

Waterproofing, Caulking, and Traffic-Bearing Membrane Services

Water infiltration is one of the most damaging — and most preventable — problems affecting commercial buildings in New York City. When moisture penetrates foundations, plaza decks, or building facades, it leads to structural deterioration, mold, and costly interior damage.

Our waterproofing team provides complete building envelope protection for commercial properties across NYC. Furthermore, we work with a range of proven systems — including Grace Bituthene, Hydrotech, Siplast, and Laurenco — selecting the right product for each specific application.

Key services include:

  • Below-grade foundation waterproofing

  • Traffic-bearing membrane systems for parking decks
  • Caulking and expansion joint replacement
  • Elastomeric and protective coating application

Parking Garage Repairs – Local Law 126 Compliance

  • Concrete spall repair and structural patching

Structural steel fabrication by concrete contractors in NYC, Malatesta Paladino, providing custom steel components and fireproofing services.

Structural Steel Fabrication & Fireproofing Services

Steel plays a critical role in the structure of most commercial buildings in New York City. Over time, however, embedded steel corrodes, lintels crack surrounding masonry, and fireproofing deteriorates — creating both safety and compliance issues.

As structural steel fabricators serving NYC since 1985, our team produces custom steel components and installs them on-site with precision. In addition, our fireproofing services protect steel structures against heat damage and ensure compliance with NYC fire code requirements.

Key services include:
