244-248 Laurel St, San Francisco, CA 94118

The three-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 244-248 Laurel Street in Presidio Heights, owned by Bruce G Mckleroy Revoc Lvg, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety events over its history dating back to 1900. Most recently, in 2021, the building underwent a substantial reroofing project costing over $82,000. The property has a documented history of fire safety issues, with the most recent violation in July 2024 related to the alarm system maintenance, following a pattern of fire violations in 2017 including issues with sprinkler/standpipe systems, combustible materials, and hazardous materials.

The building has undergone multiple routine housing inspections between 2001 and 2011, with some notable violations in 2006 regarding improperly supported water heater flues and plumbing issues that were subsequently abated. Recent records from 2024 indicate ongoing challenges with driveway blocking, with multiple enforcement actions taken against vehicles blocking the driveway, though this is more of an external infrastructure issue than a building concern. The property has maintained active compliance with most building and fire safety requirements, as evidenced by the prompt resolution of violations when cited.

In addition to the reroofing work in 2021, previous structural maintenance includes sidewalk repairs in 2004. The building has experienced two false fire alarms and one smoke detector malfunction according to fire incident records, with no reported civilian injuries in these events. The property appears to be actively managed, with most violations being promptly addressed and corrected when cited, though the frequency of fire safety violations in 2017 and 2024 suggests periodic attention to fire safety systems may be required.
