SB721 Balcony Inspections – California Compliance Experts
California SB721 requires periodic inspections of exterior elevated elements including balconies, decks, walkways, stairways, and railings for multifamily buildings. PASSUP LLC conducts thorough SB721 inspections that meet state law requirements and local enforcement standards.
What is SB721?
Senate Bill 721, enacted in 2018, mandates that owners of residential buildings with three or more units conduct inspections of exterior elevated elements (EEE) at least once every nine years. This law applies to apartments, condominiums, and other multifamily residential properties throughout California.
SB721 inspections are designed to identify structural defects, safety hazards, and maintenance issues that could endanger residents or lead to property damage.
