Ensuring the safety and compliance of your building’s Essential Safety Measures (ESM) is vital. Critical defects, such as inoperative systems or fire-rated material penetrations, require immediate attention to protect occupants and meet legislative standards. Non-critical defects, while still operational, can lead to diminished safety and escalate into critical issues if not addressed promptly. Non-conformance refers to minor issues like missing signage, which, while not immediately threatening, should still be corrected. Acting on both critical and non-critical defects is crucial to prevent risks, protect lives, and avoid insurance complications. If you have concerns about your building's ESM status, contact Linkfire for expert guidance and timely maintenance services.

Protecting your property from severe weather requires proactive measures. Secure loose items like outdoor furniture, maintain trees and foliage, and ensure gutters and drainage are clear to prevent water damage. Regular roof and window inspections can help identify issues before a storm strikes. During severe weather, stay indoors, monitor weather updates, and report hazards to the property manager. After the storm, document any damage, engage professional services for repairs, and check your insurance coverage. In a strata environment, communication with your strata manager and neighbours is key to a smooth recovery. Need help preparing for severe weather or organizing repairs?

Underinsurance poses a significant risk for strata properties, leaving owners vulnerable during major loss events. Outdated valuations, rising construction costs, and overlooked additional expenses like debris removal and compliance fees contribute to insufficient coverage. Regularly reviewing your sum insured, obtaining professional valuations every 2-3 years, and accounting for rebuilding and associated costs are crucial steps to mitigate underinsurance risks. A well-maintained building also minimizes potential damage and claims. Ensure your strata property is fully protected by consulting your strata manager or insurance broker to assess and update your coverage. Stay proactive to safeguard your investment and financial security. Contact CHU for expert advice on strata insurance and protecting your property effectively.
