Performance Audits

Identifying Warrantable Claims in New Condominiums

At Brown & Beattie Ltd., we are here to protect your investment and maximize your warranty coverage administered by TARION. The purpose of the performance audit is to identify any construction deficiencies that may be covered under warranty before it expires.

Audit Timelines

Under the Condominium Act, all new condominiums are required to undergo a Performance Audit of their common elements within the first year. We also provide second and seven year Audits, aligning with TARION milestones.

What's Included in a Brown & Beattie Performance Audit?

Our audits are fully compliant with the Condominium Act and follow a detailed process, including:


Brown Beattie Performance Audits

Document review including project drawings, specifications, and related construction documentation.

Unit owner survey to help us identify common issues and patterns across the property.

A comprehensive review of the building and site to document deficiencies in the common elements to create defensible claims. We recommend prioritized deficiency repairs, identify items suitable for warranty pursuit, and outline anticipated costs or timelines to assist the board with planning.

Where specific concerns are identified, targeted intrusive investigations may be recommended including specialist elevator audits, materials testing, thermographic scans, or localized test cuts through walls or roof assemblies.

Preparation of the Performance Audit Tracking Summary (PATS).

Draft review with the Board of Directors and Property Management.

Submission of the final Performance Audit Report and PATS to the Tarion Warranty Corporation to ensure it is received before the warranty deadline.
