Monthly inspections and maintenance

 


Did you know Orange Coast Building Services, Inc. provides monthly maintenance and inspections to Community Associations (HOA) and apartment communities throughout California?


Orange Coast can utilize an existing maintenance manual for its inspections or tailor a new one to your property's specific needs. Our current client base ranges from weekly full-time on site technicians to quarterly inspections, recommendations, and repairs. Of course our technicians are always available after hours should a non-scheduled maintenance emergency arise. 
    Our technicians are experienced with all types of buildings including low-rise, mid-rise, high-rise, and also mixed use developments. Orange Coast's technicians are skilled in a wide variety of repairs such as painting, welding, drywall, electrical, lighting, rain gutter repairs and cleaning, BBQ and fireplace repairs.

Mold Testing and Mold Remediation


The possible presence of mold can be complicated and needs to be attended to in a timely manner. Orange Coast's team of IICRC certified experts are trained in properly identifying, containing, and removing hazardous molds. Orange Coast accurately and timely identifies and remediates microbial growth. After mold has been removed and the area has passed clearance testing our skilled craftsman can seamlessly patch back the areas where mold was remediated.

Destructive Testing



Since its inception, Orange Coast Building Services has performed Destructive Testing for hundreds of clients throughout California and Oregon. Continuing this tradition Orange Coast Building Services is pleased to announce two Destructive Testing projects in the Los Angeles area. Orange Coast Building Services, Inc. will be performing these tests as an unbiased participant.

Destructive Testing on a 128 unit condominium complex in Playa Vista, California is currently underway. The scope of work has come from various parties such as structural, civil, architectural, mechanical, geotechnical engineers as well as roofing and waterproofing experts.

The other DT in Bel Air, California is scheduled to begin in the next couple of weeks. This will be the largest single family custom home (16,000 sf.) that OCBS has performed invasive tests on.
This DT consists of water testing windows, decks, trellises, and columns. Sections of the roof membrane will be removed, inspected, and patched back. Core samples will be taken at the pool and at a retaining wall to verify the composition of construction.

Orange Coast has dedicated vehicles specifically designed and fully stocked with a wide variety of equipment and supplies for Destructive Testing. These trucks contain everything needed for efficient testing and patch back such as:
  • Spray racks for water testing,
  • visqueen, tarps, and surgical booties to protect interiors of homes
  • stucco, drywall and insulation for same-day patch back

See pictures below of our "Ice Cream Truck" one of our mobile supply vehicles dedicated to this type of testing.
