900 Marshy Cove Floors

After 12 years, the floors at 900 Marshy Cove have been refreshed

The latest improvement was the completion of the stairway landings.

The floor has been painted a light gray. The ambient light has tinted the photo making it look brown,

A highly durable epoxy paint was used to ensure long life.

Stairway landings have been freshly painted 

Residents' hallway carpeted

Next on the projects list is to brighten up some of the dark corners in the garage,.

Automatic door openers are also under consideration leading from the lobby to the garage.

After twelve years, it is time to check a few things.

Unit Inspection Program

Is my water heater Ok?

Should my expansion tank be replaced?

Are there leaks around my windows?

Are there any potential fire hazards in my unit?

These are just a few questions that will be answered after a unit inspection.  The purpose of the inspection is to let owners know what to repair, replace, or maintain to avoid costly incidents in the future.

The inspection will be offered at no cost to unit owners.  Twenty minutes is all that it will take to complete critical observations. Each unit owner will receive a private report with recommendations.

We plan to deliver the program in mid-June.  Letters will be mailed to owners explaining the program. Residents need not be present, but, are encouraged to participate.

The timeline and details will be forwarded in a few weeks.

We just ran a pilot with three units and have discovered a few unexpected problems.

Getting better all the time.

What is that guy doing up there?

Doug has been contracted to repair our decks.

We expect that deck edges will be sealed to prevent any continuing degradation with the next week, weather permitting.  This project has been a difficult one to get going.

We feel that this method will endure for several years. 

Full replacement of our balcony decks is quite expensive. The vinyl deck surface should last many more years. It is just the edges that needed sealing today.

Up there where the air is rarified, flying high.....

Working on 309, Say hello to Andy.

Before- Ugly, very ugly

Looking good! Nice work, Doug 

Future projects under consideration 
     (funding has not been approved by the Board of Directors)

• Hallway carpet cleaning, November 2018
• New Hallway Carpets, 2019
• Power washing and caulking of the exterior, Spring 2019
• Any other ideas?

Next Meeting of the Board: Saturday, November 10, 2018

900 Marshy Cove Hallway Painting Project

The painters are now on the second floor.  On Tuesday, doors will be painted.  That requires the door to be opened for two hours to permit painting and drying.  Signs have been posted on each door so residents have been notified.  Your privacy is respected. we will seek the owner's or tenant's permission to prop open the doors. So far, all owners and tenants have co-operated. We appreciate your patience.

What's happening in our building?

We have been confronted with multiple challenges this year.
As we begin the 3rd quarter, it is time to gear up and get though our highest priority projects.

Sentry and the Board of Directors will be making every effort to complete these objectives well before the next regular meeting. Clearing the table of lingering problems will enable us to get on with the longer term projects described in our Reserve Study.

 High Priority Projects:

1. Roof repairs- funded
1. Exterior roof leak repaired on June 7.
2. Repair interior ceiling of condo below leak
3. Repair missing fascia capping on north side peak
2. Deck repairs- 
1. (Survey completed in December, 2015)
2. Collect bids for “glue down” and begin work on selected decks
3. Collect bids on edge replacement, target price $1000-$2000@ for worst cases
3. Vent Cleaning*- funded
1. Purchase Order sent on 6/16/2016
2. Complete work by July 31

*Birds entered a ventilation duct on the first floor, built nests, and died after being trapped. The ducts will be cleaned and the exterior vent covers will be sealed to prevent entry.

Projects:

1. Garage deck cleaning- special industrial cleaning to remove stains
1. Bid received, reference needed.
2. Begin work asap
2. Carpet cleaning 1-4 floor hallways

*Rescue-Recall Function: currently our elevators will cease to operate when there is a power failure. At 700 Cattail Cove, a resident was trapped in the elevator for 45 minutes until power was restored.  One of our residents stepped off the elevator 90 seconds before the power outage. Adding the R-R function will bring the elevator to the lobby level and open the door safely.

We welcome your comments and questions.
