Fordham centers on Fordham Road, one of the busiest shopping streets in the Bronx, surrounded by blocks of prewar apartment buildings near Fordham University and the Grand Concourse. Easyfix Concrete NY repairs sidewalks and concrete for landlords, co-ops and store owners throughout the area.
Heavy foot traffic wears sidewalks down fast and turns small defects into trip hazards. We replace damaged flags to the DOT standard, schedule storefront work around business hours and handle the permit and inspection.

Fordham FAQs
Can you repair a storefront sidewalk on Fordham Road without closing the store?
Yes. We pour in sections and keep a path to the entrance, and new concrete is ready for foot traffic in 24 to 48 hours.
Do I need a permit for a small repair?
A DOT permit is needed for repairs over 25 square feet and for any repair that clears a violation. We tell you which applies after we measure.
Does grinding a raised flag clear the violation?
No. Grinding can reduce a trip edge, but DOT does not accept it to dismiss a violation. The defective flags have to be replaced.
