SB 721 Inspection Process
Under SB721, a licensed professional will conduct an on-site evaluation to inspect all Exterior Elevated Elements (EEEs) in multi-family residential buildings. This process may include installing small plastic plugs, removing exterior coverings, or drilling as needed to thoroughly assess load-bearing components and waterproofing systems.
A comprehensive report will be delivered within 60 days of contract approval, detailing the findings, conditions of the elements, and recommendations for repairs or replacements, along with supporting photographs. If any immediate safety hazards are identified, such as compromised load-bearing or waterproofing issues, these must be reported to the local building code enforcement agency within 15 days of the report submission, ensuring timely action to protect residents and meet compliance requirements.
