Update on Attic Inspections by PuroClean

To all owners:                                                                           July 24, 2023

The board has received an update from PuroClean on the recent inspection of attics. Thank you to all owners who assisted with providing access. All but two units were inspected and the results were better than expected.

You may recall from the Owners Information meeting held on April 6th and various communications that were sent this spring, that the board carried budget figures in the recently approved reserve fund study (completed by WSP) to address mould remediation and attic repairs. For ease, we have included a link to the study below.

Categories 2.4.4 and 2.4.5 in the study had estimated $150,000 would be needed to complete the restoration efforts.

In advance of the inspections, the board engaged WSP to review the attics and to provide a checklist of areas where there were either deficiencies or areas that should be addressed, including how the bathroom exhausts are vented, overall attic venting and insulation levels.

The results from the inspection identified only six (6) units that were affected with mould, which when combined with the original five (5) units, amounts to eleven (11) units in total.

Based on the estimates that we have received to perform the mould remediation as well as to address the deficiencies in most attics, the total of the project will come in less than $120,000.

The work will be scheduled for later in the year and will be undertaken by PuroClean. Upon the completion of each unit, a report and certificate of mould abatement (when applicable) will be provided to each owner for their records.
