LL126 Facade Inspection Safety Program (FISP)

Buildings 6 stories or taller must have their facades inspected every 5 years by a Qualified Exterior Wall Inspector (QEWI).

The cycle

FISP has a rolling schedule — every building is assigned to Sub-Cycle A, B, or C based on the tax block, and the inspection window rotates on a 5-year cadence.

The three ratings

• SAFE: Facade is compliant. File a report and move on for 5 years.
• SWARMP (Safe With A Repair And Maintenance Program): OK for now but has repairs due before the next cycle.
• UNSAFE: Immediate hazard. Erect a sidewalk shed within 60 days, complete repairs, then re-inspect. Fines: $1,000/month for the shed permit, plus violation penalties.

What Pijexa does

We pull your FISP filings from DOB's dataset and show your current status, next inspection window, and any open items. When your window approaches, we email you so there's time to hire a QEWI.
