  • "We've worked with FBCS across multiple projects over the years. Their knowledge of the NYC code and their relationships with FDNY are genuinely unmatched. They're the first call we make on any new development."

    Former Customer

  • "Having FBCS on-site for our FDNY inspection made all the difference. They knew exactly what the inspector was looking for and resolved questions in real time. We got our Letter of Approval without a single follow-up visit."

    Former Customer

  • "FBCS caught several issues during their plan review that would have required device relocations and plan revisions mid-construction. Catching those problems upfront saved us significant time and money — and kept our TCO timeline intact."

    Former Customer

  • "When we received a Letter of Defect that threatened our TCO date, FBCS had a PE-sealed affidavit prepared and in front of the Borough Commissioner within days. We didn't miss a single deadline."
