From Milestone Inspections to Building Recertifications, our team of experts is committed to providing thorough and reliable assessments. This comprehensive guide will walk you through the various services we offer and how they benefit your condominium.
Milestone Inspections
Purpose: Milestone Inspections are crucial for assessing the structural integrity of buildings that are three stories or higher. These inspections are required every 30 years to identify potential safety issues and ensure compliance with building codes.
Process: Our licensed engineers conduct a detailed examination of the building’s key structural components, including the foundation, load-bearing walls, and roofing systems. The goal is to detect any signs of deterioration or damage that could compromise the building’s safety.
Benefits: Regular Milestone Inspections help prevent costly repairs by identifying issues early, ensuring the safety of residents and prolonging the building’s lifespan.
Structural Integrity Reserve Studies (SIRS)
Purpose: SIRS are designed to assess the long-term structural needs of a condominium and ensure that sufficient funds are reserved for major repairs and replacements.
Process: Our engineers evaluate all critical structural components, such as the roof, plumbing, and electrical systems, and estimate their remaining useful life. This assessment helps determine the amount of reserve funding required to cover future maintenance costs.
Benefits: Conducting SIRS helps condo associations plan financially for upcoming repairs, avoiding sudden financial burdens and maintaining property value.
Traditional Reserve Studies
Purpose: Traditional Reserve Studies focus on the financial health of a condominium’s reserve fund, ensuring that it is adequately funded to cover both predictable and unforeseen expenses.
Process: We analyze the current reserve fund balance, projected future expenses, and the life expectancy of various building components. This comprehensive financial analysis guides the condo association in setting aside the appropriate funds.
Benefits: Regular Traditional Reserve Studies ensure that the condominium is financially prepared for necessary maintenance and repairs, thus avoiding special assessments or emergency levies.
Balcony Inspections
Purpose: Balcony Inspections are mandated to ensure the safety and structural integrity of balconies, particularly in buildings three stories or higher.
Process: Our engineers inspect the balcony railings, floors, and supporting structures for signs of damage, corrosion, or other issues that could pose safety hazards.
Benefits: These inspections help prevent accidents, enhance the safety of residents, and ensure compliance with state regulations.
Turnover Studies
Purpose: Turnover Studies are essential during the transition from developer control to the homeowners’ association, ensuring that all common elements are in good condition.
Process: We conduct a thorough inspection of all common areas, including amenities, mechanical systems, and structural components, to identify any deficiencies or needed repairs.
Benefits: Turnover Studies protect the interests of the homeowners’ association by ensuring that all issues are addressed before the transition, preventing future disputes and costly repairs.
Disclosure of Condition of Buildings
Purpose: Disclosing the condition of buildings is crucial for transparency and informed decision-making for potential buyers and current residents.
Process: Our engineers provide a detailed report on the current condition of the building, highlighting any issues that need attention and the general state of the property.
Benefits: This disclosure builds trust and provides peace of mind to residents and potential buyers by ensuring they are aware of the building’s condition.
Property Assessment Reports
Purpose: Property Assessment Reports offer a comprehensive overview of the building’s structural and mechanical systems, aiding in maintenance planning and budgeting.
Process: We evaluate all major building components and provide a detailed report with recommendations for maintenance, repairs, and upgrades.
Benefits: These reports help condo associations plan and budget for maintenance, ensuring the building remains in optimal condition.
Building Recertifications
Purpose: Building Recertifications are required to verify that older buildings continue to meet safety and structural standards. We handle 25, 30, 40, 50, and 60 year building recertifications.
Process: Our engineers perform a comprehensive inspection of the building, focusing on critical systems and components, to certify that the building remains safe and compliant with current codes.
Benefits: Recertifications provide assurance that the building is maintained to a high standard, ensuring the safety of residents and compliance with legal requirements.
