California SB-326 & SB-721 were developed in response to a deadly balcony collapse in Berkeley, California, in June of 2015. These laws mandate inspections for exterior elevated elements on all multi-family buildings by January 1, 2025, and regular inspections every 6 to 9 years thereafter.

SB-326 declares that all condominium HOAs must also complete inspections by January 1, 2025, and every 9 years thereafter.

Steven DeTray2023-07-17Today I had a wonderful customer interaction with the two young men that came out to inspect my balcony in Long Beach. The lead tech was named Angel and he was professional on time, courteous, and on task all day long. I would recommend balcony for other people, looking for an honest inspection of the maintenance and upkeep of their balcony. Thank you Steven DeTray

Under California’s SB-721 and SB-326 laws, balcony inspections are legally mandated to ensure the safety of exterior elevated elements on multifamily buildings. This bill was passed in response to a deadly balcony collapse in a Berkeley apartment building. By complying with mandatory balcony inspections, you can avoid fines and legal issues while maintaining the safety and integrity of your property.
In California, balcony inspections are legally mandated to ensure that property owners comply with safety regulations. Regular balcony inspections identify potential hazards that could lead to accidents or structural failures. With regular maintenance and inspections, you can prolong the life of your balconies and ensure lasting structural durability.
Exterior Elevated Elements (EEE) refer to any structures attached to the exterior of a building that are elevated above the ground, such as balconies, decks, and walkways. These elements can deteriorate over time if not properly maintained, but regular inspections and repairs can ensure safety and maintain structural integrity.
Typically, property owners and management companies are responsible for balcony inspections. Depending on the terms outlined in lease agreements or property management policies, inspection costs may be shared among property owners in multifamily buildings.
Waterproofing elements prevent water from penetrating the structure of a balcony or building. When applied to exterior elevated elements, membranes, coatings, and sealants can prevent rot, corrosion, and mold.
Load-bearing components are beams, columns, or supports that distribute weight within a building. These components must be properly designed and maintained to ensure the safety and stability of balconies and other exterior elevated elements.
