transition from one Management firm to another. With our
experience, we can guarantee as smooth a turnover as
possible. If we were awarded the contract, we would
commence immediately to work closely with the existing
Management and Board of Directors. In the beginning
whatever additional time is required will be spent at no
additional cost to the Corporation.
We will not come in and make sweeping changes. We listen
to the Board, we will review all aspects of your present
operation and make the necessary recommendations and
implement as directed by the Board. |

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE SERVICES
All the Property
Managers at Andrejs are trained in the philosophy of
preventive maintenance in all areas of building
operations. We believe that planned, timely maintenance
of structural and mechanical building components will
extend their useful life and reduce costly breakdowns. |
BUILDING INSPECTION LIST
With the use of
our Building Inspection list your Property Manager is
provided with a breakdown of daily, weekly, monthly and
annual maintenance requirements for your building. This
list is a guideline that prompts each Manager to
inspect, order or perform all of the numerous ongoing
tasks that are required to ensure the professional,
smooth operation of multi-residential sites today. All
areas of administration, health and safety and
mechanical, structural and landscape maintenance are
included. The Building Inspection list will be tailored
to suit your building and your Property Manager will
maintain this list on a monthly basis and submit it to
Andrejs Head Office for review by Senior Management, and
if requested by the Board. |
INSPECTIONS (other)
There are
inspections that should be performed from time to time,
by engineers or contractors and not the Property
Manager. These inspections are invaluable in ensuring
that the mechanical and structural components operate at
optimum efficiency and for the full extent of their
useful life. |
Mechanical Inspections
Inspections should be carried out of all mechanical
equipment to ensure that the pumps, motors, boilers,
fans etc. are maintained at manufacturers suggested
levels. A report concerning any problems will be
submitted to the Property Manager. |
Structural Inspections
An engineering inspection should be made of the
walls, roofs and garages of your building to look for
areas of potential water penetration, weak caulking,
flashing problems etc. A report concerning any problems
will be submitted to the Property Manager. |
Seasonal Operations
Your building is inspected and staff is trained to
ensure that all systems and building areas are properly
prepared and operating as required for the appropriate
season. The Property Manager will submit a report
concerning any problem areas. |
Elevator Survey
Every three to five years an independent elevator
consultant should be hired to inspect all elevators. A
report concerning any problem areas will be submitted to
the Contractor and Property Manager. |
Energy Monitoring
Where a building has installed an energy
monitoring/control system, we will check the operation
at least once each year to ensure it is performing
within the set parameters. A report concerning any
problems will be submitted to the contractor and
Property Manager. |
CONTRACTS
Three quotations
are presented to the Board prior to the renewal of any
contract. Complete breakdown of costs vs. budget will be
provided. The Board's decision is to select the proposal
it feels best suits the needs of the Corporation. |
TRAINING
In addition to
preventive maintenance services we at Andrejs believe
that it is important that both our staff and the staff
of the Corporation are trained in all areas that affect
job performance. Because of the existing legislation
respecting the workplace, it is important that staff is
acquainted with the changes in order to protect everyone
from potential dangers. We provide the necessary
training with the assistance of our suppliers. Areas
addressed are: Building Operations, Mechanical,
Air-conditioning and ventilation, First Aid/CPR,
Workplace Hazardous Materials Information Systems,
Health & Safety.
Monthly Staff Meetings
It is important for Management and Staff to meet
regularly throughout the year to discuss and resolve any
operational problems and introduce new ideas to improve
relations and working conditions
Housekeeping
One of our suppliers has been assisting us in
training staff in the best methods of building cleaning
and proper use of chemicals and janitorial equipment.
Superintendent Training
The superintendent and all other maintenance staff
will be trained to: take daily log readings of building
equipment, perform regular scheduled testing of
emergency generator in accordance with Ontario Fire
Code, react properly power failures, maintain building
heating and cooling, be familiar with location of the
valves and be able to isolate main and risers valves,
understand all building maintenance and responsibility
of the contractors, maintain time logs for contractors. |
