Property Managers

We understand the hard work associated with property management. We also recognize that our doing a good job reflects on the property managers that we do business with. We have identified several areas to focus on with regards to providing above average service as it relates to the managers They are as follows:

We have an excellent, twenty-four hour a day, seven days a week Emergency Response Program. We have a truck that is rigged with a generator, commercial wet vacuum, a submersible pump, sand bags, ropes and pulleys, chain saws and bow saws, hand tools and other equipment for many emergencies. We stock plywood at our shop. If we have even one property with you we will respond to an emergency situation on any property in your care. A fair hourly rate has been established . Please call for more information.

We are big on documentation Every site inspection, committee meeting, or complaint generates a typed report. The report will outline salient points, make recommendations and provide a time line for action. We live and die by these reports and have an excellent reputation of following through.

If you invite us to bid on one of your properties, we will put an impressive bid package together. Our presentation includes a cover letter, standard five page, CLCA recommended contract form (if a contract form is not provided), referral list, sample copies of insurance certificates and some 'drop in' information sheets from our brochure.

South Bay Grounds Maintenance is a division of Pettyjohn Construction Company. Pettyjohn Construction was originally A-1 Concrete Services (we still use this name for our equipment business), established in Redondo Beach in 1963. Our family has specialized in concrete and masonry construction with an emphasis on waterproofing and site drain system work. We have brought waterproofing solutions to many associations who have endured repeated failures. We follow strict engineering guidelines and use the best products available. We no longer offer construction to homeowners or general contractors. We are only available to our S.B.G.M. clients or to the associations under the care of our property managers. We can install or repair concrete and masonry, install interior or exterior catch basins, site drain systems, French drain systems and waterproof planters on decks or attached to homes and structural retaining walls. Our construction services carry varying warranties.
