3248 Folsom St, San Francisco, CA 94110

This two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building at 3248 Folsom Street in Bernal Heights, owned by Ldmj Incorporated, was constructed in 1907 and has undergone several significant maintenance and safety-related updates over the years. Most notably, the building experienced multiple safety and compliance issues in 2010, resulting in violations pertaining to stair repairs, handrail installation, self-closing devices at exterior doors, combustible storage, and various other building safety requirements, all of which were addressed through subsequent permits and completed in May 2010. The property underwent foundation work and wall reinforcement in 1998 (permit expired) and received a new roof in 1997.

Gas infrastructure was updated in 2012 with the installation of a new gas line. The building's maintenance history shows attention to critical infrastructure, including multiple sewer issues in 2021, with four separate incidents of sewage backup through 4-inch vents that were all resolved through PUC work orders. Previous complaints from 1996-2006 indicate various maintenance concerns, including issues with water damage, heating systems, and illegal unit allegations, though these historical issues were all resolved. The property has maintained compliance with routine apartment inspections, with all identified violations being addressed promptly.

Recent exterior maintenance issues in the vicinity have been documented through 311 calls, including tree damage reports in 2023 and 2024, though these are external to the building itself. The most recent documented incident was a tree-related issue in December 2024, though this occurred outside the building itself. The property has maintained an active approach to addressing both routine maintenance and emergency repairs, as evidenced by the prompt resolution of violations and completion of necessary permits. The most pressing historical concerns related to building safety and infrastructure appear to have been systematically addressed, with no active violations or recent complaints regarding similar issues.
