DrBalcony Expands Patio & Deck Inspection Services Across California to Strengthen Structural Safety and Compliance – PR.com

Los
Angeles,

–(PR.com)– SB721
&
SB326:
Why
Deck
&
Patio
Inspections
Are
More
Important
Than
Ever.

In
response
to
the
2015
Berkeley
balcony
collapse,
California
enacted
SB721
and
SB326,
requiring
the
regular
inspection
of
exterior
elevated
elements
(EEEs)
in
multi-family
residences
and
HOA
properties.
However,
balconies
and
decks—often
overlooked
in
structural
inspections—are
just
as
susceptible
to
moisture
infiltration,
wood
rot,
and
support
failures.

DrBalcony’s
expanded
inspection
services
provide
a
comprehensive
approach
to
structural
safety,
helping
property
owners
identify
hidden
risks
before
they
turn
into
costly
repairs
or
life-threatening
failures.

“Balconies
and
decks
may
seem
like
sturdy
outdoor
spaces,
but
without
proper
inspections,
they
pose
the
same
safety
risks
as
balconies,”
said
Omid
Ghanadiof,
Founder
&
CEO
of
DrBalcony.
“At
DrBalcony,
we’ve
streamlined
the
process,
making
inspections
more
accessible,
affordable,
and
technologically
advanced—helping
property
owners
comply
with
California
laws
while
prioritizing
safety.”
