For condominium strata councils
How Sentinel helps condos stay documented.
In a condominium, one missed issue cascades across every owner. Shared envelope, parkade, mechanical, and plumbing systems mean a single undetected failure becomes everyone's special levy. Sentinel keeps your shared asset inspected, recorded, and protected so council decisions stand on documented evidence.
Condominiums carry concentrated risk.
Shared envelope, mechanical, plumbing, and parkade systems mean a single undetected failure cascades across every unit. Councils are expected to manage complex building systems on volunteer time, often without independent technical guidance and with limited construction expertise.
Sentinel provides a consistent, quarterly record of your building's condition so council decisions are grounded in documented evidence, and the right professionals are coordinated when action is needed.
How Sentinel helps condos.
Initial Asset Assessment
A comprehensive baseline covering roof, envelope, parkade, mechanical, plumbing, electrical, balconies, and common areas. One record from day one.
Quarterly inspections
Recurring walkthroughs that track deterioration across shared systems. Issues are caught early, documented clearly, and ranked by severity.
Insurance-ready documentation
Insurers increasingly demand evidence of proactive maintenance. Sentinel's structured records directly support underwriting and renewal conversations.
Coordinated professional engagement
When engineers, trades, or consultants are needed, Sentinel scopes the work, sources vetted professionals, and oversees execution. Council approves, we manage.
Every system is everyone's problem.
In a condo, deferred maintenance on shared systems means special levies spread across every owner. Early detection is the best financial protection your council has.
Roof assembly
Active leaks into top-floor units, saturated insulation, full tear-off required.
Contained scope, no unit displacement
Multi-year project, special levy
Building envelope
Interior water ingress across multiple units, scaffold-access rehabilitation.
Planned maintenance window
Scaffolding, resident disruption
Parkade & drainage
Slab corrosion, post-tension cable exposure, excavation-level waterproofing.
Manageable repair, no closures
Structural intervention, stall closures
