The "wet-over-dry" rule is a building policy in NYC co-ops and condos that prohibits extending or relocating "wet" areas (such as kitchens, bathrooms, or laundries) over "dry" areas (like bedrooms or living rooms) of the apartment below to prevent water damage from potential leaks.
Any renovation that alters structural walls, electrical panel loads, or relocates gas and plumbing lines requires an Alteration Type 2 (ALT-2) permit. Cosmetic upgrades, such as replacing cabinetry or replacing appliances in their exact original locations, do not require DOB building permits.
The NYC Building Code requires that bathroom floors be fully waterproofed with approved materials extending at least 6 inches up the walls. In high-end renovations, we install continuous Schluter® membranes on both floors and walls to ensure a 100% water-tight envelope.
