What the board should see on a sidewalk proposal

Boards vote on counts they can walk. A grind and a full panel replacement are not the same line.

Community association managers do not need another paragraph that says the sidewalks are aging. They need a piece of paper a board can vote on. Precision Concrete & Construction writes that paper for HOAs in Orange, Seminole, Brevard, Volusia, Osceola, and Lake counties. Nikki Mejia walks the property. The proposal comes back on company paper with the work split into lines a director can find on the street.

Grinds and replacements are different lines

A trip hazard of about a quarter inch to an inch is often a grind. Past about an inch, or where the panel rocks, is cracked through, or is spalled, the slab comes out. Those are different crews, different days, and different costs. A single line that says “sidewalk repairs” hides which is which. The board cannot tell whether it is approving twenty grinds or six full panels, and it cannot check the work when the invoice arrives.

Each line should carry a count and a place: the street, and the nearest house number or the amenity the walk serves. “Various locations” is how a punch list gets argued in the parking lot. If the curb at that same walk is broken, the curb is its own line. If a ramp or a detectable warning is part of the same corner, it is named, not folded into the sidewalk count. The trip-hazard guide explains the repair. This page is only the paper.

What the manager sends first

You do not have to measure every panel before you call. Send the streets you already know are bad, and say if a previous vendor ground some of them. Nikki will tell you what she still needs. If irrigation heads sit in the panels, or a landscape contract already covers the roots, say that so the first day is not a surprise.

What this is not

This is not the page about what happens on the assessment visit. That visit is a walk. This is what the board should be able to read afterward. It is not a sample price. Call (407) 925-7873 for a free assessment, or email info@precisionpaintandconstruction.com.
