Commercial Property Maintenance in Ocean & Monmouth County, NJ

An HOA contractor for condo associations and HOA boards

Most HOA boards we talk to have ten vendors for the common areas, the outside of the building and the safety items, and ten invoices to match. The commercial Quarterly Maintenance Plan puts all of it on one schedule with one HOA contractor, so the condo maintenance services the HOA board used to split ten ways come from one company. We wash the walkways and entryways, clear the gutters and roof drains, and test the emergency lighting and alarms. Filters get changed. Small repairs get done before a resident has to call about them. Every building runs off the same seasonal checklist, every visit ends with a photo report, and the treasurer files one invoice instead of ten.

A maintenance vendor for property managers in Ocean and Monmouth County

We run the maintenance for Pinnacle Property Management at the White Sands in Seaside Park, 17 visits a year of common-area, exterior, and safety upkeep, with before and after reporting every visit. On one of those visits, we found that a tenant had dumped planter pots out a window, right onto the siding and the AC condensing units. We had the units cleaned out before a repair was needed. Replacing the condensers could potentially have cost over $20,000. That's what a manager gets from a vendor who's on the property on a schedule. Problems get seen while they're still cheap to fix.

What that looked like at the White Sands in Seaside Park

The full story is in the White Sands post, with what we did and what it would've cost. If you're on an HOA board and want to see what the plan gets you visit by visit, read the four visits, quarter by quarter. The services behind it each have their own page. On the outside of the building, that's commercial pressure washing and power washing, plus building washing and gutters, roof drains and scuppers. Then windows and dryer vents. Water heaters and AC coils share a page, and handyman work has one of its own.

Landlords, restaurants and small commercial buildings

Take a duplex, or a storefront with apartments above. An office building, a restaurant with a drive-thru and a dumpster pad. The work's about the same as a house, but more is riding on it when something gets missed. It's the same four visits a year on the Quarterly Maintenance Plan, so the outside stays clean, the drains stay clear, the safety devices get tested, and the handyman list stays short.
