Helping La Verne Landlords and HOAs Achieve Balcony Compliance

Over time, heat, moisture, and daily use can take a toll on your balconies. Wood begins to rot, metal fasteners start to rust, and waterproofing can quietly fail without any obvious signs. 

Even if everything looks solid from the outside, internal damage could be hiding beneath the surface. Regular balcony inspections give you a clear look at your balconies’ structural integrity, so you can fix small issues now instead of paying for major repairs down the line.

What SB-721 and SB-326 Mean for Property Owners in California

If you own or manage rental units, condos, or HOA communities, California requires you to comply with these balcony inspection laws:

SB-721 (for Rental Properties):

  • Applies to apartment buildings or multi-family rentals with 3 or more units (not condos)
  • First inspection deadline was January 1, 2025
  • Inspections must be repeated every 6 years
  • Late compliance can lead to daily fines, stop-work orders, or legal action

SB-326 (for Condos and HOAs):

  • Applies to condos and HOA-managed buildings with balconies, catwalks, decks, or similar raised structures
  • Initial inspection deadline was also January 1, 2025
  • Follow-up inspections required every 9 years
  • Failure to comply can result in lawsuits, major repair costs, and insurance complications

Our Proven Process for Safe and Compliant Balcony Inspections

We follow a thorough inspection process to make sure your property meets California’s balcony inspection laws and safety requirements. Here’s how we do it:

Visual Walkthrough to Identify Balcony Safety Risks

We assess all elevated structures on your property, including balconies, catwalks, landings, and walkways. Our inspectors look for visible signs of damage or wear, such as:

  • Water stains, wood softening, or mold
  • Loose railings, cracked concrete, or warped planks
  • Rusted metal fasteners or brackets
  • Dry rot or compromised waterproofing

This allows us to flag hidden issues before they become serious safety hazards or costly repairs.

Evaluating Balcony Strength Through Load Testing

Our inspectors assess the strength and stability of your balcony’s framing, joists, connectors, and supports using both non-invasive and minimally invasive methods. With this step, we make sure your balconies can safely handle everyday use without putting anyone at risk.

Clear Inspection Report With Repair Guidelines

After the inspection, we’ll provide a detailed report that serves as official proof of compliance with SB-721 or SB-326. You’ll receive:

  • Photo documentation of our findings
  • Repair recommendations (if needed)
  • A compliance statement signed and stamped by a licensed structural engineer
