25 COMPANY-PUBLISHED, NOT CONFIRMED
25 buildings the company publishes without a matching DOB permit
The company presents these as its work. We found no permit tying it to them. That is common—much residential masonry is done without a permit, and subcontracted work is filed under the general contractor’s license—and it does not mean the work is not theirs.
