Community Condition Assurance Program (C-CAP)
Condition Assurance for HOA & Condominium Communities
Exterior stewardship does not end when the final coat is applied.
The Community Condition Assurance Program (C-CAP) is Peacock Painting Services's structured exterior oversight framework. Through structured biannual condition evaluations, disciplined documentation, and reserve-aligned forecasting, C-CAP affirms the ongoing performance of exterior paint systems, preserves institutional knowledge, and supports predictable repaint cycles for HOA and condominium communities.
Why Condition Assurance Matters
For most associations, repaint cycles are disrupted by:
- Board turnover
- Lost records
- Changing management
- Reserve assumptions that no longer reflect real conditions
- Repainting delayed until visible failure forces urgency
When exterior knowledge resets, repainting becomes reactive.
C-CAP prevents that reset. It creates continuity, visibility, and disciplined oversight between repaint cycles so boards are never forced to make capital decisions without condition clarity.
The C-CAP Framework
1. Biannual Exterior Condition Inspections
Every two years, we perform a structured exterior condition review of the community.
These evaluations:
- Affirm current paint system performance
- Identify emerging wear patterns
- Document sealant and joint conditions
- Track environmental exposure impacts
- Detect early indicators of potential failure
This recurring cadence provides proactive oversight rather than reactive response.
2. Documented Condition Tracking
Each inspection is photo-documented and recorded.
Documentation includes:
- Paint system specifications
- Color formulas
- Repair history
- Identified condition trends
- Noted performance observations
Documentation is not the purpose of C-CAP — it is the proof behind condition assurance. Without documentation, condition opinions fade. With documentation, institutional knowledge compounds.
3. Six-Year Condition Visibility Window
Because inspections occur every two years, communities maintain a rolling six-year visibility window.
This structured cadence allows:
- Condition trend recognition
- Performance pattern analysis
- Early forecast adjustments
- Confident long-range planning
Repaint timing is forecasted through observed performance — not rule-of-thumb assumptions.
4. Reserve Alignment at Years Four and Six
At the four-year and six-year marks, we provide updated reserve-alignment repaint estimates based on documented condition findings, supporting long-term capital planning alongside broader HOA reserve and lifecycle resources.
This supports:
- Accurate capital forecasting
- Budget smoothing
- Reduced likelihood of special assessments
- Defensible board decision-making
Boards can plan repaint timing based on documented performance, not speculation.
5. Continuity Across Board & Management Transitions
HOA leadership evolves. Property managers change. Records are often fragmented over time.
C-CAP preserves institutional knowledge across repaint cycles. Exterior history does not reset when leadership transitions. Condition data remains structured, accessible, and cumulative.
This continuity prevents repaint cycles from reverting to urgency and guesswork. It protects disciplined planning even as governance changes.
Exterior Stewardship, Formalized
Exterior painting is one of the largest recurring capital obligations an association manages.
C-CAP ensures that obligation remains predictable, documented, and aligned with long-term community stewardship.
It reflects our belief that accountability does not end at project completion — and that disciplined condition oversight is part of responsible exterior management.
