Though only five years old, this Bellevue condominium property had extensive water intrusion problems. The 48 three-level townhouses needed some serious intervention.
After removing all the siding and decayed materials, Charter installed new weatherproofing, flashings and reclad it with Hardiboard. All windows and sliding glass doors were removed and replaced in the process. Due to the large sizes of the front picture windows, they were removed completely to allow a total rebuild of the window rough openings.
To address surface water concerns of the homeonwers’ association, Charter also installed new area drains and French drains throughout the complex.
