Your Spring Property Maintenance Checklist
Spring is just around the corner — and now is the perfect time to prepare your building for the season ahead.
Here’s a practical March maintenance checklist to help keep your property on track:
✔ Address known repair items
March is ideal for planning and prioritizing any previously identified repairs so work can be completed before peak maintenance season.
✔ Check drainage and waterproofing systems
Ensure drains, scuppers, and visible waterproofing components are clear and functioning properly to help manage spring rain and irrigation runoff.
✔ Review exterior surfaces and common areas
Walk exterior pathways and building perimeters to look for surface wear, cracking, or areas that may need routine maintenance after winter weather.
✔ Plan ahead for the year
Early action helps avoid last-minute scheduling, unexpected costs, and potential compliance issues (such as clearing brush) later in the year.
A proactive approach now supports safety, protects your investment, and keeps your property running smoothly into spring and through summer.
For apartment and HOA managers, now is the time to:
✔ Understand Which Buildings and Exterior Elevated Elements Are Covered
California’s SB 326 and SB 721 apply to many multi-family residential buildings that contain Exterior Elevated Elements (EEEs) supported in whole or in part by wood framing. These elements commonly include balconies, decks, porches, exterior stairs, landings, catwalks, and elevated walkways that extend beyond the exterior walls and are designed for human occupancy or use.
✔ Confirm SB 721 / SB 326 compliance status
If your property is subject to California’s EEE inspection requirements, now is a good time to confirm timelines and ensure inspections are scheduled.
