435 44th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The 3-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 435 44th Ave in the Outer Richmond, owned by Charles Y & Joanne M Kao Su, has undergone several significant maintenance and repair projects since its construction in 1977. The property experienced recurrent water-related issues between 2014 and 2017, with multiple complaints about window leakage and mold problems.

These issues prompted several repairs, including window replacements in 2018 (4 windows at 2nd and 3rd floors) and siding replacement in 2017. The building underwent comprehensive renovations to address various violations in 2017, including re-roofing work (completed in 2017, previously done in 1996), repairs to ceilings, floor coverings, and water damage sources, as well as addressing interior mold/mildew issues and smoke detector concerns. More recently, a plumbing complaint from November 2022 regarding a malfunctioning shower spout and uneven water pressure was filed, though this issue appears to be unresolved in the records.

The building's plumbing systems were upgraded in December 2021 with work on the sewer lateral and house trap, representing the most recent major infrastructure work on the property. Despite the historical maintenance issues, most of the documented violations were abated by May 2019, indicating significant remedial work was completed to bring the building into compliance with housing codes. The property's maintenance history shows a pattern of addressing both routine updates and specific repair needs, though some recent plumbing concerns remain on record.
