Balcony Inspections

In the state of Florida, balconies at hotels, apartment buildings, and other public properties are required to be inspected if the structure is three or more stories tall. The professionals at Certified Inspections can provide thorough balcony inspections. Call us at (561) 570-6311 and speak with one of our experienced team members.

The Importance of Balcony Inspection

While inspections do not protect property owners from litigation in the event that balcony failures cause injury or death, they do help reduce the risk of accidents by ensuring the structure and safety features are properly maintained. The top causes of injuries associated with balconies include the following:

Safety railing failure
Structural failure
Improper construction or fastening
Wood rot or metal deterioration
Overloading the weight limit/capacity
