636 Andover St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 636 Andover St in Bernal Heights, owned by Anthony & Laura Contreras L, has undergone significant improvements since its 1904 construction. Most recently, in 2022, the property received a complete solar panel installation comprising 17 panels with a total capacity of 6.8 kW. The building has seen continuous maintenance and upgrades, including a bathroom remodel in 2018 (costing $15,000) that included both construction and electrical work, and a reroofing project in 2017.

Historical renovations from the mid-2000s included interior remodeling, window replacements, and structural improvements, though some permits from that period expired without completion. The building had several serious issues that have since been resolved, including a significant cluster of violations in 2001 related to lead paint hazards, building repairs, and safety concerns (such as missing handrails and smoke detectors), which were all abated by June 2002. A fire safety complaint regarding blocked exits was filed in 2015 but was found to have no merit.

Recent activity at the property has primarily consisted of external matters, particularly regarding parking enforcement, with multiple citations issued in 2024 for vehicles blocking driveways. Current building maintenance appears to be routine, with no active violations or major infrastructure concerns. Recent 311 calls primarily relate to street-level issues like graffiti, discarded waste containers, and parking enforcement, suggesting these are external neighborhood concerns rather than building-specific problems.
