Bellet Construction began in 1918 and grew and matured over two generations. Over the years, our corporate focus shifted toward maintenance, repair, and restoration of residential, commercial and industrial properties. Now in its third generation under Wayne Bellet, Bellet Construction has evolved and separated itself from its competitors by forging a unique blend of high-tech technologies with customer-driven craftsmanship that few others can match. Bellet Construction specializes in all aspects of exterior construction including: roofing, waterproofing, concrete repair, and facade restoration.
If one were to look closely at the composition of the Manhattan skyline, one detail would quickly become clear: there are a lot of parapet walls. For building owners, the concerns are obvious: Are these walls water-tight and safe? Repairing parapet walls is a comprehensive and detailed process: repairing the underlying steel, replacing bricks and rusted lintels, and installing new waterproofing. Scaffolding and sidewalk sheds are erected and maintained to support our workers and provide for the public's safety.
High above the streets, balconies and terraces undergo significant damage over time, battered by extreme weather conditions and everyday use. New York buildings are in constant need of care, especially in regards to exterior waterproofing, a building aspect that is essential during months of rain and snow. Founded in 1918, Bellet Construction has over 90 years of experience with exterior waterproofing in New York City. At Bellet Construction, we have fine-tuned the process of properly diagnosing a situation and efficiently repairing the structural surfaces, significantly reducing the time and labor required to complete the project and allowing us to lower the cost to our customers.
New York City has over 10,000 miles of sidewalks, making the sidewalk one of the most important exterior features of a building. Damaged sidewalks present trip hazards and act as eye sores for anyone approaching the property. Replacing or repairing a stained and damaged sidewalk can create a new, more positive image for the building as a whole. Aesthetic appeal isn't the only reason you should maintain your sidewalk. It's also the law. According to the NYC Administrative Code, property owners are required to install, repair, and maintain sidewalks adjacent to their properties.
We know that a roof that is 99% waterproofed is not good enough-water will eventually find a way to infiltrate into the building. We've been performing roof repairs in New York City since 1918, and our combination of exceptional work and "double warranty" (manufacturer's plus Bellet's own) and our "renewable guarantees" coverage distinguishes us in the field. Over the years, roofing application technology has changed immensely, and it now features high-tech resins, polymers, torch-applied roofing, and liquid-applied roofing, and we've advanced with it: there isn't a system we don't do.
