Superior Management will not reimburse you should you become the victim of locksmith fraud. Emergency after-hours lockout service should never cost more than $ 300.00 and may be less if the locksmith is only replacing a cylinder. The service should cost approximately $ 150.00 – $ 200.00 during ordinary business hours. There are disreputable firms that will conceal their cost and demand payment of $ 600.00 – $ 800.00 for the same service. Always ask for a verbal price quote before agreeing to send a locksmith to your location. You can also contact our offices to arrange for service, especially during ordinary business hours.

The surface of some gas range stoves have standing pilots that must be lit. Sometimes these pilots can accidentally go out, which can result in a small gas leakage. First open a window for fresh air and then re-light the pilot or contact Superior Management to have our staff relight the pilot for you. If the smell remains, please call our emergency line.

To re-light standing pilots:

1. Be sure the surface burner control knobs are in the “OFF” position.

2. Remove the grates and cook top.

3. Locate the pilot ports and light each of them with a match. Replace the cook top and grates.

 

Light the oven burner pilot in the following manner:

1. Be sure the oven control knob is in the “OFF” position.

2. Remove the broiler carriage.

3. Hold a lit match at the top forward section of the pilot. No adjustment is required.

4. Replace the broiler carriage.

No, unless there is a pre-installed air-conditioning sleeve in your apartment. Superior Management is not responsible for the maintenance or weatherproofing of window air-conditioning units. Our superintendents are not trained to install window air-conditioning units and we therefore cannot assume the liability risk. The Department of Buildings has issued an ac_tips guide on how to install an A/C unit. Remember, proper installation always requires window brackets and should be professionally installed. In addition all leases have the following clause:

Window Air Conditioning Units Tenant shall not install an air conditioner in the window unless the unit is professionally installed by an insured contractor who uses the proper metal brackets to support protruding individual air conditioning units on windows to prevent any falling hazard. Any loose objects on the outside of the window such as wood blocking, bricks etc. are expressly forbidden. The installers insurance shall list the building owner and management company as additional insured and proof of such shall be delivered to the management office before work commences. All work must be comply with New York City, New York State building code. Air conditioners may not be installed on windows used for egress such as fire escapes. Permission must be obtained before an air conditioner can be installed.

No, unless your apartment was pre-equipped with these amenities. These appliances can easily overwhelm the historic, undersized waste supply lines found in brownstone buildings. High sud detergents do not mix well with cast iron plumbing and can cause suds to shoot back up the waste line. In addition, if you hookup the appliances improperly, it can cause cold and hot water lines to mix.

Yes. Recycling is mandatory for everyone living in New York City. The Department of Sanitation regularly issues tickets upon discovering incorrect disposal of recyclable materials. This includes mixing recyclable materials with non-recyclable materials, such as placing non-recyclable materials in recycle bins. Recycling rules are as follows:

? Tenants should rinse out all metal materials (cans, aluminum containers, aluminum foil) and place them in the specially designated blue recycling containers lined with blue plastic bags.

? Paper, magazines, catalogs and phone books must be placed in designated green recycling containers lined with clear plastic bags.

GARBAGE DISPOSAL/COLLECTION:To obtain scheduled garbage collection days for both non-recyclable and recyclable materials, follow this link: http://www1.nyc.gov/apps/311utils/addressinfo.htm
To dispose of large items, such as a couches and beds, you must place these items on the curb during bulk collection days. To find the bulk collection day schedule call 311 or visit NYC.gov. A new law requires that all mattresses being discarded be wrapped in plastic. This law is enforced by a fine of $ 100.00.

Section 27-2007 (c) of the New York City Administrative Code says that a tenant can’t “place any encumbrance before or upon, or cause access to be obstructed to, any fire escape, or obstruct by a baby carriage or any encumbrance, the public halls or any required means of egress.” By obstructing hallways or fire exits, a tenant is interfering with the safety of other tenants. If we find that you are storing items such as bicycles in the hallway or planters on the fire escape, we will have to ask that you kindly remove these items, as they block egress in the event of an emergency.

Fire escapes are to be used for emergency egress only. In addition, storing anything on fire escapes or in public hallways violates the New York City Housing Maintenance Code.

Bed Bugs are tiny red dot’s usually found on beds. They can leave a series of bite marks that may appear like a rash. If you have reason to believe that your apartment may be infected with bedbugs, contact us to set up an inspection by our bedbug specialists. If they find evidence of bedbugs, we will send a team to help alleviate this problem. Successful eradication of bedbugs requires tenant cooperation and compliance with extermination directives. Superior Management Incorporated maintains bedbug-free buildings. If bedbug warnings occur, we take immediate corrective action.

 
The following is our standard bedbug treatment protocol: All open crevices in molding and sheetrock must be caulked; mattresses are wrapped in special bedbug-free material; door sweeps are placed at the front entrance to prevent bedbug migration; bedbug prone areas must be sprayed regularly.

Reasonably behaved dogs and cats are allowed. Exotic pets are prohibited. We may ask that you remove pets that bark constantly or are menacing to others.

Superior Management Incorporated leases include a “no pet” clause. The law regarding pets is as follows: “Tenants may keep pets in their apartments if their lease permits pets or is silent on the subject. Landlords may be able to evict tenants who violate a lease provision prohibiting pets. In multiple dwellings in New York City, a “no pet” lease clause is deemed waived where a tenant “openly and notoriously” kept a pet for at least three months and the owner of the building or his agent had knowledge of this fact. However, this protection does not apply where the animal causes damage, is a nuisance or substantially interferes with other tenants. (NYC Admin. Code §§27-2009.1) Tenants who are blind or deaf are permitted to have guide dogs regardless of a no-pet clause in their lease. (Civil Rights Law §§47)”

• Agree to all terms as outlined in your lease.

The below requirements must also be met:

• You must be current on your rent.

As outlined on page 11 of your lease:

EITHER:

Thirty days notice, sent by certified mail, to:

Superior Management Inc.

50 Bank Street, Office

New York, NY 10014

 OR:

Thirty days notice sent by email to [email protected] or [email protected] and an email reply from Superior Management Inc. confirming receipt of your electronic notice to terminate early.

AND:

• A lease can terminate only at the end of a month, never in the middle of a month.
• Tenant must pay the rent for the final month in occupancy and payment must be sent with notice to terminate early. This payment must be by certified check.
• Apartment must be in ‘broom clean’ condition and free of all personal possessions.
• Tenant must vacate three days prior to the termination date stated in the notice to vacate.
• During the last month of occupancy, tenant must provide reasonable access for brokers to show the apartment.
• Tenant surrenders security deposit.
• When a tenant elects to terminate a lease before expiry, any loss in rent shall be reimbursed by the Tenant. For instance, if either Tenant or Superior find a suitable replacement tenant to take over the lease without loss to the Building Owner, then there will be no penalty due by the Tenant. However, when there is a loss to the Building Owner attributable to vacant time (a time gap between tenants), rental amount, or work needed to be performed on the unit (painting or other repairs), then this loss is attributable to Tenant and shall be paid by Tenant in order to terminate the lease with Superiors consent.

Under Section 15-(B) “Abandonment,” all Superior Management Inc. leases read in pertinent part, “If you move out of the apartment before the end of the lease without the consent of owner, this lease will not be ended.” Imagine if Superior Management Inc. told you six months after you moved in that we intended on canceling your lease, effective immediately. You would tell us that we have no right to do so. We are similarly offended when tenants do not bother to receive our consent to end their lease early.  All tenants will be held responsible for any loss of rent and damages for unilaterally ending their tenancy unless they properly follow the procedures outlined in their lease.

Although we are constantly refinishing floors, we will never do so while an apartment is occupied. The wood dust created by the sanding process makes it prohibitively disruptive for tenants.

Decisions are made based upon the age, function and aesthetic appearance of current appliances.

Superior Management Incorporated is committed to maintaining buildings all tenants can enjoy. This sometimes means balancing the right of one tenant to enjoy the ordinary use of their apartment against another’s right not to be disturbed by cigarette smoke. Generally speaking, any preventable, persistent, and excessive condition is prohibited.

We suggest that you politely notify your neighbor of the activity disturbing you by word of mouth or a polite note. Solutions include smokeless ashtrays, opening windows when smoking, and smoking outside of the apartment. In addition, we can help seal cracks between apartments. If this fails, you can request that Superior Management Incorporated write a letter requesting that your neighbor keep second hand smoke to a minimum. Email [email protected] to request a letter.

Superior Management Incorporated is committed to maintaining buildings that all tenants can enjoy. This sometimes means balancing the right of one tenant to enjoy the ordinary use of their apartment against another tenant’s right not to be disturbed by noise. Generally speaking, any preventable, persistent, and excessively loud noise is prohibited.

 
For instance, if the noise is caused by footsteps, this is would be an ordinary, non-preventable source of noise and is permitted. Most of our buildings were built in the 19th century, and unfortunately, moderate impact noise is a reality of brownstone living. Noise may be mitigated by carpeting. We ask that you please be mindful of your neighbors. Your neighbor may be unaware of noise he or she is unintentionally creating, a problem which may be resolved simply by notifying your neighbor.

 
If the noise is jumping up and down to exercise videos, this would be a preventable, excessive, and prohibited source of noise. If the noise is caused by your neighbor’s television usage, depending on the loudness and hours of operation, this could be either a prohibited or a permitted source of noise.
We suggest that you politely notify your neighbor of the activity disturbing you by word of mouth or a polite note. If this fails, you can request that Superior Management Incorporated write a letter requesting that your neighbor keep noise to a minimum. Email [email protected] to request a letter.
