    Copper (strata) - older piping

    There is some older copper in the building which is a strata issue, usually a building will start thinking about replacement once small repairs are necessary on an on-going basis. Within the unit ceilings (if plumbing above), and around all plumbing fixtures, should be…

    Windows - Old (Strata)

    The windows are old and not energy efficient. Some do not open/close well or lock properly. Older windows may have gaps within the assembly exposing the home to air and moisture leaks. This can lead to higher energy costs and may cause water damage to components. Condensation…

    Window Sill - Maintenance

    One or more window sills needs maintenance. Recommend caulking along the transition between the window frame and windowsill and painting and exposed wood. It is also important to check every windowsill in the home for very small cracks and make sure they are all updated.…

    Interior Doors - Door Stoppers Missing

    Door stoppers were missing or not working and may damage the walls and doors. For solid or heavy doors install rigid stoppers. Recommend installing a baseboard mounted stoppers where possible or better quality hinge mounted.

    Not Self Closing - Strata

    Front doors for strata units should be self closing to prevent fire from spreading. Recommend having a qualified door specialist replace the hinges with self closing hinges at your convenience.

    Cooktop Glass Top - wear and tear

    Glass cooktop had wear-and-tear damage, small cracks or abrasions. This is mostly cosmetic, but can possibly lead to more damage. Recommend an appliance repair person evaluate and repair if needed.

    Legend Substandard

    Panel legend(s) was/were missing, incomplete, illegible or confusing. This is a hazard in the event of an emergency when power needs to be turned off. Recommend correcting the legend so it's accurate, complete and legible. Evaluation by a qualified electrician may be necessary.
