Upper Restoration - NYC Field Office
About
Old buildings in New York don’t stay standing by accident. They require periodic facelift work—masonry repointing, terra-cotta repair, waterproofing, and structural stabilization—that most contractors sidestep because the margins are thin and the scaffolding permits are a headache. Upper Restoration runs a field office on the Upper East Side, handling exactly those jobs. Their crew arrives with lifts instead of ladders, and they know which landmarks commission still prefers lime mortar over Portland cement. You’ll find them at 355 E 72nd St, New York, NY 10021. The block is quiet, lined with pre-war co-ops that keep the same superintendents for decades, so word travels fast when someone shows up who actually returns calls. If your parapet needs tuck-pointing or your cornice is shedding chunks, they ask for photos first, then a site walk; no estimate is ever final until the last brick is counted. For directions, pull up the map. Add contact info once near the end: call (516) 777-7001.
