Mott Haven, at the southern tip of the Bronx, has some of the borough’s oldest row house blocks alongside apartment buildings, new residential towers and busy retail on East 138th Street, Willis Avenue and around The Hub at East 149th Street. Easyfix Concrete NY repairs sidewalks and concrete for homeowners, landlords and businesses here.
Historic row house blocks and mixed-use corners each bring their own rules. We confirm which rules apply to the frontage, handle the DOT permit and phase storefront work around business hours.

The Landmarks Preservation Commission regulates sidewalk and curb replacement only in historic districts where historic paving is a significant feature; there, bluestone and granite are kept where possible and new concrete is tinted to match. New or enlarged tree pits need LPC review in every historic district. We check your address against the LPC rules during the estimate.

Mott Haven FAQs
My row house is in the Mott Haven Historic District. Do I need Landmarks approval for a new sidewalk?
Not for replacing the sidewalk itself. Mott Haven is not one of the districts where LPC regulates sidewalk paving, but new or enlarged tree pits and areaway changes still need LPC review. We confirm this for your address.
Can you repair the sidewalk in front of my store?
Yes. We pour in sections so customers can still get in, and the new concrete takes foot traffic after 24 to 48 hours.
Do I need to fix the corner ramp too?
If your building is on a corner, the intersection quadrant and its pedestrian ramps are your responsibility. We include them in the estimate when they need work.
