In short: a parking garage repair project usually runs in five steps. An engineer assesses the garage, writes a repair spec, the work goes to tender, the contractor repairs one zone at a time, and the engineer signs off each zone. This guide is for condo boards, property managers and building owners planning that work.
A restoration engineer walks the garage, sounds the concrete, looks at cracks, leaks, rust staining and spalling, and sometimes takes samples. The result is a report that says what needs repair now, what can wait, and roughly how big the job is. Many condo boards tie this to their reserve fund planning.
The engineer turns the report into drawings and a spec: where the repair areas are, how deep to go, how to treat the rebar, which materials to use, and where shoring is needed. The spec also lists the items and quantities that contractors price.
The engineer sends the documents to contractors, who price each item on the tender form. Because everyone prices the same items, the board can compare bids line by line rather than on a lump sum.
The garage is split into zones so residents and tenants can keep parking. Each zone is closed, repaired and reopened before the next one starts. The property manager and contractor agree on work hours, closures and notices ahead of time. Typical work includes:
The engineer reviews the repairs as the spec requires, often before concrete is placed and again when a zone is finished. Each zone is cleaned before it reopens. At the end, the engineer confirms the work matches the spec.
The quantities in the spec, how deep the damage goes, the shoring, access for equipment, the number of phases and the hours the garage can be closed. Send the spec or book a site visit and you get a clear, line-by-line price.
