As a landlord, ensuring that your property is up-to-date with the latest safety regulations is paramount. Senate Bill 721 and Senate Bill 326 were passed to protect tenants from the dangers of balcony collapses and other similar incidents. Compliance with these bills is mandatory for all multi-family properties in California. Balcony1, located in Los Angeles County, specializes in balcony inspection and repair to comply with SB721 & SB326.
The Importance of Compliance
California has seen a spate of balcony collapses in recent years, leading to tragic deaths and injuries. In response, the state government passed Senate Bill 721 and Senate Bill 326 to ensure that property owners take proactive measures to prevent such accidents. These bills require regular inspections of balconies, walkways, landings, and stairways in multi-family properties. Compliance is not only necessary to avoid hefty fines but also to ensure tenant safety.
Inspection Methodology
In order to comply with SB721 & SB326, Balcony1 uses a range of state-of-the-art technologies to perform inspections.
