4654 19th St, San Francisco, CA 94114

The three-story multi-family residential building at 4654 19th Street, owned by Richard J. Bidgood, is a 1923 flats and duplex construction containing two units in the Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights neighborhood. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past decades, with the most recent major works including deck renovation (2013), window and door replacements (2011), and a complete roof replacement (2011).

The electrical system was upgraded to 200 amps in 2007, and a plumbing permit for sewer line replacement was issued in 2013, though this permit has since expired. The building has experienced recurring sewer issues, with multiple sewage backup incidents reported between 2020 and 2022, indicating a persistent plumbing system challenge. Additional infrastructure work included repairs to two deck levels (2004), installation of a wind turbine (2007), and periodic maintenance of the porch and various structural elements dating back to the 1980s.

Recent municipal interactions have primarily involved maintenance and repair matters, with the most pressing issues being sewer-related incidents, including three separate backups in 2022 and one in 2020. The property also faces outdoor maintenance challenges, as evidenced by an open sidewalk defect case from 2022 and a tree root issue affecting the sidewalk from 2021, though there have been no reported sidewalk work orders or environmental concerns regarding the actual piping infrastructure. While the building has received regular upkeep and improvements over the years, the recurring sewer problems suggest an area requiring ongoing attention. The property's maintenance history shows responsible management through proper permitting for major works, though two basement-related permits from 1984 were either expired or cancelled.
