Attention Condo Owners!

We would like to bring your attention to the recent building safety legislation that has been passed for condominiums and cooperatives in response to the Champlain Tower tragedy. These new laws emphasize mandatory structural inspections and reserves for buildings three stories or taller. We believe it is essential for you to understand the importance of these measures and the impact they will have on the safety and well-being of your condominium.

First and foremost, the legislation requires all existing condominiums and cooperatives to provide important information about their buildings to the Department of Business and Professional Regulation by January 1, 2023. This information includes the number of buildings and units, their locations, and addresses. By collecting this data, authorities can better understand the state of our condominiums and implement appropriate safety measures.

One of the most crucial aspects of the legislation is the requirement for milestone inspections. Licensed architects or engineers will assess the structural integrity and safety of buildings through a thorough examination. These inspections will identify any potential risks, ensuring that necessary maintenance, repairs, or replacements are carried out promptly. By conducting these inspections, we can proactively address any concerns and prevent potential hazards.

The legislation also emphasizes the importance of the Structural Integrity Reserves Study (SIRS). This study evaluates various components of the building, such as the roof, load-bearing walls, plumbing, electrical systems, and more. By understanding the estimated remaining useful life, replacement costs, and necessary reserve amounts for each component, we can adequately plan and allocate resources to ensure the long-term integrity and safety of our condominium.

It is crucial to note that these measures are not only for the protection of the building but also for the well-being of all residents. The inspections and reserves will provide peace of mind, knowing that our ho

Rot Repair

Rot can be an unexpected variable of every condo project. We try to make this process as affordable as possible. Most condo owners fear this process, but we do not try to make money on this service. We provide rot repair as a courtesy to our business – because our guys are so skilled and quick – this process is usually very affordable.

Water Resistant Board (WRB Application)

When doing a condominium project, the most important part is the water proofing process (WRB). The siding and caulking is just cladding and will not protect the building as well as the water proofing will.

The most common WRB system that is used in the business is Tyvek by DuPont. We also use Fortifiber and Vapro shield.

Vapro shield even has a product called Wrap shield RS that has a rainscreen integrated into it. Meaning, you do not have to do the rainscreen furring strips. Most of the vaproshield products are a peel and stick so it eliminates the piercing of staples through the membrane.
