Keep outdoor spaces safe
As a multifamily building owner or apartment owner in California, balcony inspections may seem like an unnecessary hassle. However, failure to comply with SB-721 and SB-326 can result in costly fees and safety hazards for your tenants.
Under California law, multi-family buildings with three or more units had to have their balconies, decks, and exterior elevated structures inspected by January 1, 2026 under SB-721 (extended from 2025 under AB 2579), while condos and HOAs faced a January 1, 2025 deadline under SB-326. Both have now passed, and Balcony1 can help you resolve non-compliance with professional balcony inspections in Madera County.
Using non-invasive testing methods, our licensed inspectors check for the integrity of structural components and weaknesses on your balconies without damaging your property. If we find any issues, we’ll provide prompt repairs to help you comply with California balcony laws, preventing structural damage to save you money on future maintenance.
Let Balcony1 help you get back into compliance. Schedule your Madera County balcony inspection to protect your property and keep your residents safe for years to come.
Madera County runs from the hot San Joaquin Valley floor up into the Sierra foothills toward Oakhurst and Yosemite’s south gate, so its balconies face everything from triple-digit valley heat to mountain freeze-thaw, and that range steadily wears down wood, waterproofing, and railings. Load-bearing supports, waterproofing systems, railings, and other structural components can weaken, causing risks that put residents in danger.
Regular balcony inspections can address potential safety issues by thoroughly examining exterior elevated elements. Our licensed contractors provide detailed reports of their findings, pinpointing and repairing signs of wear to structural components to bring your property up to code. We save you money on future repairs and major property renovations by staying compliant with state regulations and catching issues early. These EEE inspections also protect your property by identifying and mitigating structural risks before they escalate, the same reason owners across neighboring Mariposa County stay current.
California’s SB-721 and SB-326 mandate regular safety inspections for all balconies on multi-family properties to keep residents safe. SB-721 applies to apartment buildings with three or more units, while SB-326 applies to condos and HOAs.
The initial inspection deadlines have now passed, January 1, 2026 for apartments under SB-721 (extended from 2025 under AB 2579) and January 1, 2025 for condos and HOAs under SB-326, with further inspections every six years for apartments and every nine years for condos and HOAs.
Now that both deadlines have passed, a non-compliant property owner could face fines of $100 to $500 per day and legal action. Protect your property and residents. Schedule your Madera County balcony inspection with Balcony1 to get compliant and avoid dangerous safety issues.
