In California, the safety of residents in multi-unit residential buildings is a top priority, particularly when it comes to balconies and exterior elevated elements (EEEs). This is where Senate Bill 721 (SB 721) plays a critical role. Aimed at buildings with three or more multifamily dwelling units, SB 721 requires rigorous inspections to ensure these structures are safe, functional, and free from hazardous conditions.

Fire can cause extensive damage to both residential and commercial buildings, necessitating a comprehensive restoration process. This process involves a range of technical tasks aimed at restoring the structure, functionality, and aesthetics of the property to its pre-fire condition.
