SB721, the “Balcony Bill,” mandates the inspection and maintenance of exterior elevated elements (EEEs) like balconies, decks, and walkways in multifamily buildings across California. This legislation aims to prevent accidents and ensure structural safety.

While SB721 primarily targets EEEs, it also indirectly impacts standards for windows, doors, roofing, and exterior surfaces by highlighting the importance of overall building integrity. Regular inspections every nine years by a qualified professional are required, with necessary repairs and upgrades to meet safety standards.

The legislation promotes proactive building maintenance to prevent hazards, influencing how multifamily homes are maintained and inspected in California. Contact MCC for your SB721 repairs today!
