Staten Island has the highest share of single-family and two-family homes in the city, and more of them are still heated with oil than anywhere else in NYC. That makes boiler replacements and oil-to-gas conversions, including removing or abandoning the old oil tank, a large part of the heating work on the island.
Staten Island's three community districts all fall within the citywide Local Law 152 schedule, so apartment buildings and commercial properties there have inspection deadlines like anywhere else in NYC. Homeowners deal more often with sewer lines, where a camera inspection can show roots, cracks, or a collapse before anyone digs.
