Here is Why You Should Inspect 100% of Your Buildings Exterior Elevated Elements
At PCREI we inspect 100% of your building’s exterior elevated elements to ensure the safety of your tenants, and to protect the assets of property owners and building managers. As a building owner or property manager, building upkeep is at the forefront of your priorities. When it comes to inspecting the exterior weather exposed elements like decks, balconies, walkways and fire escapes, choosing to inspect only a sample size of 15% is not be the best approach. Here are some compelling reasons why you should consider comprehensive inspections for all your apartment decks rather than just a fraction.
Dont Overlook 85% of Your Tenants Safety
The primary reason for conducting inspections is to ensure tenant safety. By inspecting 100% of the areas, you have a complete understanding of each one’s structural integrity. Exterior appendages can experience wear and tear at varying rates for a multitude of factors. Relying on a sample may overlook critical safety issues present in other areas. A full inspection means that all potential hazards are identified and addressed, minimizing the risk of accidents or injuries related to structural failures.
Avoiding Costly Liability Claims
If an accident occurs due to a deck failure, the financial repercussions can be significant. Liability claims stemming from injuries can lead to costly lawsuits and damages. By inspecting every deck, you reduce the likelihood of overlooking dangerous conditions that could result in such claims. Investing in full inspections now can save you from potential financial ruin down the line.
Comprehensive Maintenance Planning
By having a photo report documenting the condition of every deck, you obtain a complete picture of necessary repairs and maintenance needs, and where they stand in their life cycle. This allows for proactive planning rather than reactive fixes. With data gathered from 100% of the decks, you can prioritize repairs, budget effectively, and schedule maintenance efficiently, ultimately leading to enhanced property value and tenant satisfaction.
Enhanced Property Reputation and Value
By prioritizing comprehensive inspections, you demonstrate a strong commitment to safety and maintenance which can enhance your property’s reputation. Knowledgeable prospective tenants are likely to choose properties that are well-maintained and safe. Furthermore, a building owner or property manager known for its rigorous safety measures can retain property value and an upstanding reputation.
