SB326 & S721 Scope of Services

Task #1: Inspect exterior elevated elements to meet the above provisions and comply with SB326 & Civil Code Section 5551. The exterior elevated elements will be selected by our inspector in conjunction with the HOA and property manager for notifying tenants in advance.
- For example:
- The statistically significant sample size of 80 balconies is 66.
- The statistically significant sample size of 40 stairways is 36.
- A minimum of 102 EEE’s are required to be inspected for this complex.
