Roof Replacements

Starting at the beginning of November, we will begin a comprehensive roof replacement project. This essential maintenance endeavor is anticipated to last approximately 30 days.

The Roof Replacement Project in a Nutshell:

  1. Scope of Work: The project will encompass a total of 58 buildings within our community, resulting in brand new, high-quality roofs for the majority of our condominiums.
  2. Previous Replacements: It’s important to note that two buildings had their roofs replaced last year, which means nearly all of our buildings will soon feature upgraded roofs.
  3. Company in Charge: Roof Advisor has been chosen to carry out this vital project. They are renowned for their expertise and professionalism in roofing services.

Resident Responsibilities:

During this period, we kindly request your cooperation to ensure the smooth execution of this project:

  1. Patio and Porch Areas: We recommend that residents remove any non-essential items from their patios and porches to facilitate the roofing crews’ work and protect your belongings.
  2. Notification: Expect to find a notification on your door providing specific details about the project, including the schedule for your building.
  3. Questions: If you have any questions or require additional information about the project, please do not hesitate to contact our management office. We are here to help and assist you in any way possible.

Important Safety Notice:

While we understand that the roof replacement process may be noisy or disruptive, we kindly request that residents refrain from stopping or interrupting the roofing crews during their work. Safety is our top priority, and we trust that Roof Advisor will diligently follow all safety protocols to protect both their crew and our community.

We appreciate your understanding and patience during this essential improvement to our community. The new roofs will not only enhance the aesthetic appeal of our condominiums but also contribute to the overall value and quality of our living spaces.

We look forward to a more secure, efficient, and beautiful community. Thank you for being a part of Du Page Green Condominium Association and for your cooperation during this project.

2021 Maintenance Season

Many of you may have already noticed some curb work being carried out by CB Asphalt, but that is just the beginning. The management office has lots of projects to do this year.

Road  Work  –  CB Asphalt will also be milling and paving some areas of road this year. The north entrance will be the top priority of road work, followed by a small area near the maintenance garage. This work will require some repair work to a catch basin near the garage as well.

Sidewalks and Curbs  –  Dewey has begun marking sidewalks and curbs for repair this season. The amount of repair relies on two things. The cost of concrete and the amount of money designated by the 2021 budget. This year those two numbers will afford approximately 1500 square feet of concrete.

Curb & number painting  –  Dewey has been instructed by the City of Taylor Building Department to repaint any curb located within a fire lane. These curbs must be painted red. The parking spaces and numbers will also be painted. This project will be carried out in phases throughout the spring and summer.

Porches & Fences – Several porches and fences will be replaced.

These are just a few projects that will be in the works this season. The maintenance team is hard at work to ensure the safety and aesthetics of our community.

Let There be Light!

It’s done; it’s finally over. The new lights have been installed and energized. The Du Page Green Maintenance Staff will begin de-energizing some of the non-essential security lights that were made obsolete by the new lights. Dewey drove around the property last night, and said everything looks great. Remember, if a light goes out or you see any problem with the new lights, call the management office and report it.

The new lights provide ample illumination on the back street.

OPL Installation is Starting

Many of you will notice a couple of crews in the complex this week. These crews are going to be installing the underground wires that will power our new Outdoor Protective Lights. The machines that you see are called “Directional Boring Machines”. These machines snake a tunnel underground and pull the power wires from the transformers to the new light location. This process will eliminate the need to dig trenches. If you have anymore questions about this process feel free to drop Dewey an email at his new email address, dewey@dupagegreen.com.
