SB 326 balcony and deck inspections for HOAs and condominiums
SB 326 requires associations to have exterior elevated elements, such as balconies, decks, stairways and walkways, inspected by a qualified licensed professional. Inspections repeat at least every 9 years. Many associations are already past their first deadline.

What the inspection covers
- Guardrail posts and connections
- Deck surfaces, waterproofing and flashing
- Joists and framing, checked for moisture damage
- Ledger connections to the building
