L&I Violation Correction.
A Philadelphia Licenses & Inspections notice puts a clock on your property. EcoBright reviews the notice with you, completes the agreed in-scope corrections, coordinates appropriately licensed specialists where the item requires them, and documents the completed items in writing and photos. The City controls classification, deadlines, reinspection, closure, and any penalties.

From call to handoff.
- 01Send us the notice
Text or email the L&I notice or case number and any photos. We review the cited items listed on the notice before we walk the property.
- 02Site assessment
We walk the property to assess the cited conditions, and contact L&I when a citation is ambiguous and doing so is authorized and useful.
- 03Documented written scope
One written scope, one fixed price for that approved scope, and the planned schedule and dependencies stated in writing against the notice deadline. No open billing.
- 04Corrective work + documentation
The agreed in-scope conditions are addressed, specialty or permitted items are performed by the appropriate licensed contractor, and completed items are documented in photos and writing. Reinspection support is available where requested; the City alone determines compliance and closure.
Each cited item, its correction, and the supporting photos live on a single BrightWork OS record for the case file.
No separate BrightWork OS software subscription or platform fee for eligible active EcoBright maintenance clients. Approved labor, materials, visits, subcontractor and specialty-trade work, permits, and other project charges are billed under the written estimate or service terms.
Philadelphia Department of Licenses and Inspections notices tend to name specific property-maintenance conditions with a reinspection date attached.
We read the notice, scope the corrective work against what it cites, price it in writing, and document the completed repairs so the case file reflects the work.
L&I Violation Correction FAQ.
- What happens if the correction deadline passes?
- Consequences vary by notice and by case — the notice itself states what applies to your property. Follow the deadline and instructions printed on your actual notice, and contact L&I or your legal counsel about penalties or enforcement questions. Our role is to complete the agreed in-scope corrective work and document it.
- Do you speak to the L&I inspector?
- When it is authorized and useful — for example, to confirm scope on an ambiguous citation. Attendance at a reinspection is possible only if it is arranged in advance, and reinspection timing is controlled by City availability.
- Can you handle roof, masonry, and exterior work too?
- Roof patching, masonry re-point, step and handrail repair, fence and yard-wall correction, and property-maintenance-code items are handled when they fall within EcoBright's scope. Permitted or specialty items are performed by the appropriate licensed contractor, coordinated by EcoBright.
- What if the violation is on a property outside Philadelphia?
- We also work on code-enforcement items across the surrounding counties. Municipal rules and processes differ by jurisdiction, so we review the local notice on its own terms rather than assuming the Philadelphia process applies.
- What do you need from me to get started?
- The case number or a photo of the notice, the property address, and a way to get inside if interior items are cited. That is enough for us to review the notice and schedule the walk.
- Can you correct items that need a permit?
- Permitted work is handled through the normal City process. We tell you during the walk which cited items require a permit, what that adds to the schedule, and we do not start permitted work before it is properly filed.
