194-196 Jules Ave, San Francisco, CA 94112

The two-unit residential building at 194-196 Jules Avenue in Ingleside, owned by Brantley P Tidmore/carroll, has undergone several significant renovations and faced multiple maintenance challenges since its construction in 1946. Most recently, in 2020, the property received substantial mechanical upgrades including the installation of two 80% efficient furnaces and a complete repiping with copper pipes.

Previous improvements include a reroofing project in 2005 and a comprehensive electrical system upgrade in 2003 that included new panels, meters, and wiring for both apartments. The building has a documented history of maintenance issues from 1998-2002, including multiple violations and complaints related to water damage, mold, and interior surface problems, though all these violations were officially abated by October 2001. The property recently underwent a tenant buyout at 196 Jules Avenue in July 2021 for $50,000 involving one tenant.

In late 2024, there was an unusually high frequency of garbage and debris-related complaints near the property, with multiple reports between November 2024 and January 2025, though these are more recent and may not directly reflect on the building's condition. There was one notable incident in March 2002 involving multiple broken doors and a roof leak resulting in water damage, and previous complaints in 1998 cited various maintenance issues including electrical problems and bathroom leaks. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of addressing urgent infrastructure needs, particularly in the past two decades, with systematic updates to heating, plumbing, and electrical systems.
