<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#333333">. I've been living in the Echo Lake Waterfront Condos, Shoreline, WA since 2006, when it was converted from an apartment complex. There is a dry/wet rot
issue with the plywood in the landing near my 3rd floor front door which has been slowly spreading. It is a covered exterior landing that is accessed from a covered outdoor stairway. I reported the issue to the Kappes Miller Property Management on March
22, 2022 and a few other times last year. Yesterday, they came out to evaluate it, performing moisture tests on the spot (maybe 2' by 3' in size) and also in my unit's interior kitchen wall shared with the landing. It seemed to me the tests on my inside
wall were dry based on the reaction of the person taking measurements. My fridge and washing machine are located near that inside wall. I thought it would be a good idea to obtain my own evaluation of the damage and the causation now, in case the HOA tries
to blame my unit for the damage to the landing. My own opinion is the power washing they do to the landing on yearly basis caused the initial water intrusion(s), which led to the dry/wet rot getting started. The water would puddle up on linoleum laminated
landing with no drainage. Do you know of a construction specialist that could help me evaluate it? <o:p></o:p></span></i></p>
