From roof inspection to stormwater management, CAM has you covered

As the winter season approaches, Southern Californians may not experience the frigid temperatures and snowfall that residents in other parts of the country do. However, it’s essential for commercial property owners to recognize that even in milder climates, winter weather can bring its own set of challenges.

At CAM Property Services, we’re uniquely attuned to those needs, and available to assist property managers, building owners and municipalities prepare for the colder, wetter months ahead. By taking a proactive approach to winterizing your property, you can ensure its longevity and the satisfaction of its tenants.

Property Experts Initiating Drone Inspection

Roof Inspection

Southern California may not see snowfall this winter, but rain and occasional storms still pose a threat — especially during an El Niño winter. That’s why you should initiate the winterization process now with a thorough inspection of your property’s roof, utilizing CAM’s Drone Inspection Service.

Our eye-in-the-sky technology can reveal signs of damage, loose shingles, water leaks and other issues. A thorough and professional roof inspection by our Property Pros can identify potential vulnerabilities and prevent more extensive damage from occurring during winter precipitation.

Stormwater Management

Proper drainage is crucial to prevent water damage to your property, especially during the winter months. CAM’s Property Pros will clean out gutters and downspouts, removing any debris that may have accumulated over the year. This can help ensure that stormwater is directed away from your building, preventing potential flooding or damage to the foundation.

The proper treatment of stormwater runoff is important on several levels. CAM can help commercial property owners with compliance, design, and construction to overcome potential penalties and permitting issues. We also perform stormwater inspections and certification for municipalities by conducting regular inspections of their equipment.

Exterior Inspection

CAM’s Property Pros will thoroughly inspect your building’s exterior for any cracks, gaps, holes, or other structural vulnerabilities. Once identified, we’ll repair any openings in the walls, windows, or doors to prevent drafts and heat loss during those chilly winter nights.

Proper insulation not only keeps your commercial property comfortable but also contributes to energy efficiency, reducing utility costs.

Irrigation Systems

Southern California typically experiences cooler temperatures and increased rainfall during the winter months. Commercial property owners can take advantage of these seasonal conditions by having CAM adjust their building’s irrigation systems.

Our Property Pros can reduce watering frequency and adjust the schedule to align with the seasonal weather patterns and daylight savings time This not only conserves water but also prevents overwatering, which can lead to issues like mold and mildew.

CAM has the knowledge, experience, and expertise to beautify your landscaping while reducing water use and costs. We do this by conducting extensive water audits, installing weather-tolerant landscaping and smart irrigation systems throughout your commercial property.

Outdoor Furniture and Landscaping

Our Property Pros can help protect outdoor furniture and landscaping elements from potential winter damage. From moving sensitive plants or covering them during colder nights to storing outdoor furniture in a dry, sheltered location to prevent weather-related wear and tear, CAM has you covered.

By taking these steps, commercial property owners can preserve the aesthetics of their property and extend the life of outdoor assets.

Pressure Washing

The aftermath of winter storms can wreak havoc on your property, not only causing damage but robbing it of its aesthetic appeal with accumulated dirt, grime, and damage. Fortunately, CAM has a variety of tools and techniques to keep your commercial property looking its best. We understand that every hard surface is different and requires special cleaning methods — and we have them all.

CAM employs cleansers, detergents, disinfectants, virucides, germicides, environmental green solutions, and high-temperature agents to clean and sanitize. Our Property Pros get the job done by utilizing pressure washing and steam cleaning to make your commercial building sparkle again like new, delaying the need for re-painting for up to another year.

At CAM Property Services, we are committed to helping commercial property owners navigate the unique needs of Southern California.

    Combating homelessness and graffiti: CAM provides comprehensive solutions for complex problems

    Homelessness and graffiti are two pressing issues that continue to challenge communities throughout Southern California. At CAM Property Services, we recognize the gravity of these problems and are committed to providing comprehensive solutions to address them.

    The statistics paint a sobering picture of the homelessness crisis in our region. According to the 2023 Greater Los Angeles Homeless Count, homelessness in Los Angeles County saw a 9 percent increase to an estimated 75,518 people on any given night. The City of Los Angeles alone experienced a 10 percent rise to an estimated 46,260 people. This troubling trend extends beyond L.A., with San Bernardino County witnessing a 26 percent increase, San Diego County with a 22 percent rise, and Riverside County reporting a 12 percent increase in their unhoused population.

    Homeless Encampment

    CAM Property Services understands that homelessness is a multifaceted and sensitive issue. Which is why our highly informed Property Pros are uniquely trained and equipped to assist landlords, building managers, and tenants in addressing homeless encampments on commercial and residential properties. By taking an effective-yet-compassionate approach, we can navigate local ordinances and regulations, liaise with law enforcement and public officials, and factor in humanitarian concerns to achieve desired results.

    Los Angeles Walls and Stairway Covered by Graffiti

    We recognize that homelessness often intersects with other urban challenges, such as graffiti and vandalism. The recent headlines of a downtown Los Angeles high-rise covered in graffiti serve as a stark reminder of the importance of proactive graffiti abatement measures. Drawing from the broken windows theory, which suggests that addressing minor crimes like vandalism creates an atmosphere of order and lawfulness, CAM Property Services offers expertise in graffiti removal and abatement.

    Property owners, landlords, and managers are often held responsible for promptly removing graffiti from their buildings to maintain a clean and welcoming environment. Failure to do so can result in costly fines and penalties. Our Property Pros are well-versed in the laws and regulations governing graffiti removal, ensuring strict compliance while upholding community standards and values.

    Graffiti Covering Los Angeles Walls

    Whether graffiti abatement requires paint-over, high-pressure steam cleaning, or sandblasting, our team is equipped to handle any job, large or small. We understand the importance of minimizing environmental impact and adhere to specific guidelines regarding the use of graffiti removal products.

    At CAM Property Services, we believe in proactive solutions that enhance the liveability and vibrancy of our communities. If you require assistance with homeless encampment removal or graffiti abatement, don’t hesitate to contact the Property Pros at CAM today. Together, we can work towards a cleaner, safer, and more inclusive tomorrow.

          The Dangers of a Dirty Trash Chute

          Share This Story, Choose Your Platform!

          Have you ever thought about what happens when the doors of a trash chute are opened?  It’s definitely something you should be thinking about and be aware of. Recent studies have discovered the inner surface of a chute can carry more than 30 different biological and bacterial growths. If a trash chute doesn’t receive proper and timely cleaning care, all of these germs and bacteria become airborne every time the chute doors are opened. These bacteria carry all kinds of illnesses and infections throughout the building, potentially affecting occupants.

          Harmful Pathogens

          Trash chutes are breeding grounds for some harmful fungal pathogens; for example: E. Coli, Salmonella, Legionella, Stahylococci Aureus and Pseudomonas. According to Environmental Research & Restoration, the lack of trash chute cleaning is potentially responsible for the increase in frequency of doctor’s office visits. Many pathogenic molds have the ability to inhabit the respiratory tract and become life-threatening. Items found in trash chutes contain organic waste ingredients, a perfect breeding ground for bacteria and disease-causing organisms to thrive and spread throughout the building.

          Pathogens

          Fire Hazards

          Property owners and managers face building violations, odor, and fire hazard risks on a daily basis. The potential possibility for fire risks is the most dangerous. Dirty or substandard trash chutes can cause all of these conditions, although they are entirely avoidable and affordable within a community’s budget. Grease, sludge, and grime build-up, faulty trash chute doors, and clogged air vents are all genuine threats.  When gooey residue builds up, it prevents the chute doors from closing and can even ignite. If, during a fire, the trash chute doors do not close properly, a wind tunnel effect is created, funneling the fire up and down the building. The risk of fire is reduced when a chute is functioning properly and the chute doors are safety-approved. Your building is in violation of fire and safety codes if your chute doors don’t close or latch automatically. In order to keep a chute functioning properly, grease and sludge and grime build-up must be removed on a regular basis; otherwise you risk damaging the components of the chute which occur from build-up, therefore preventing the doors from closing. Furthermore, the collection of goo on the inside of the chute has been proven to be flammable even at temperatures as low as 180 degrees. It’s very important to eliminate risks of a flash explosion by keeping the chute clean and properly maintained. Chute doors that don’t close automatically can create a wind tunnel and increase the severity of a fire.

          Cleaning Schedule

          Trash chutes should be cleaned a minimum of twice a year, preferably in the summer and winter.  It is also recommended that you clean your trash chutes before and after major holidays; tenants welcome a cleaning in anticipation of holiday entertaining and an increase of visitors. A top notch cleaning process should also include maintenance and repair services.

          A properly cleaned trash chute should include the following steps listed below:

          Cleaning Process

          ■ Pre-treat interior chute walls and doors with biodegradable enzyme solution to de-grease, disinfect and deodorize

          Pressure wash interior chute walls and doors at up to 3,000 psi to strip away grime

          Steam clean trash room floor and walls

          ■ Service options: Trash room odor control blocks and water reclamation (important for water conservation during this severe drought or when you have a lack of drainage)

          A properly cleaned trash chute leads to more than just a safe and cleaner living environment, it also eliminates breeding a breeding ground for vermin, neutralizes odors, and reduces the possibility of resident complaints.

          Listed below are several basic maintenance and repair services associated with a properly maintained trash chute.

          Maintenance and Repair Services Offered by CAM Services

          ■ Inspection of intake and discharge door each cleaning visit

          ■ Repair and replacement of worn hardware performed by trained technicians

          ■ Refurbish your existing trash chutes and doors to bring them up to code

          The seemingly small task of cleaning and maintain a trash chute is more important than some would think and can be good for your business.  Putting forth the effort to keep your tenants healthy and happy increases the likelihood that they will stay in your building longer and reduces your liability.

                Parking Lot Maintenance A High Priority for Property Managers

                Share This Story, Choose Your Platform!

                Parking lots have become a focal point for businesses and customers like never before – from order pickup to drive-thru services to outdoor dining. As health concerns increase, people are taking more notice of unclean and unsanitary environments. Parking lots are often the first and last impressions for visitors. It is critical to present the cleanest property possible. Thorough parking lot sweeping is important to keep customers returning.

                Janitorial dustpan and broom sweeping may work for small areas and tight spaces, but industrial sweeper trucks are necessary for the effective cleaning of parking lots. These vehicles use side brushes with rotating bristles to scrape hard surfaces, loosen debris, and sweep the lots clean. Some vehicles use water and liquid solvents for additional cleaning power and to reduce dust. There are also vacuum truck sweepers for lighter duty.

                On concrete surfaces, if a parking lot is particularly blemished with oil, tar, and other grime, it may be necessary to engage in high-temperature power washing or steam cleaning. These methods are effective for breaking down difficult automotive fluids that have accumulated over time. Aged gum or tar appearing as black spots are another common, yet stubborn parking lot blemish removed through power washing.

                Some property managers rely on hand-held blowers for cleaning their parking lots. This is effective in the right cases and ideal for frequent in-between cleanings.

                Another reason for using commercial parking lot sweepers is to extend the longevity of pavement, asphalt, slurry coating, and striping. Leaked automotive fluids are corrosive, while sand and dirt are abrasive materials that can shorten the life of pavement and line striping.

                customer transaction parking lot pickup area clean maintained property california

                There are other benefits to cleaning and maintaining parking lots. Parking lot sweeping is effective at removing stormwater pollutants that can enter or hinder the municipal water sewer system. Fines and lawsuits can be avoided from non-compliance with ADA regulations with proper parking lot striping, painting, and handicap signage.

                It is an ideal time to improve parking lot maintenance standards for a wide variety of reasons. Most importantly it will facilitate the return of customers in an era when cleanliness is being scrutinized at previously unseen levels.

                One more thing to consider is: What areas are included with parking lot sweeping? A company that provides great service and value will include sidewalks, dumpster enclosures, pad areas, and even storefronts with their parking lot cleaning. Be sure you know the boundaries when comparing services.

                Other services can also dramatically improve the appearance of parking lots. Water pooling and poor runoff flow from landscape irrigation or stormwater accelerates the deterioration of parking lots. Improvements in these areas will help extend the life of the affected surfaces.

                Crack repair, pothole filling, slurry seal, restriping, and landscaping can quickly renew the appearance of a worn-out parking lot. Widespread crackling – known as crocodile cracking, alligatored asphalt, or crocodiling – should also be repaired as it leads to further damage and poses a safety hazard. Improve security and traffic flow with bollard or barrier installations.

                One company that provides all these services is CAM Property Services, trusted by top California retailers and companies for their parking lot sweeping and maintenance. With branch offices throughout Southern California and the Central Valley, they are equipped to handle property requests of any size. To learn more call 800-576-3050 now.

                    The issue of homelessness has long been a contentious one in California, with elected officials and property owners facing numerous legal challenges in their efforts to address encampments that pose health and safety risks to both individuals and the community.

                    The Supreme Court has spoken.

                    Last month’s Supreme Court ruling in the case of City of Grants Pass v. Johnson has provided much-needed clarity and authority to these stakeholders, enabling them to implement effective solutions.
