Columbia Point West Condos

Portland, Oregon

Deck replacements for a riverside condominium community.

Located along Portland’s scenic Columbia River, the Columbia Point West Condominiums restoration project addressed extensive water intrusion issues across six buildings, totaling 96 units. Charter replaced back decks and front walkways with waterproof systems, installed new siding with proper flashings, and upgraded railings for safety. The result is a significantly enhanced property ready to withstand future weather conditions.

The Challenge

Space for materials pickup, dropoff, and laydown was extremely limited for this project and had to be carefully managed for safety and efficiency. The building residents stayed in their units during the construction, so accommodating their needs while keeping the project on schedule was a priority, as was providing a safe environment during COVID-19 for both residents and Charter staff.

The Solution

The replacement and waterproofing of the front walkways were carefully coordinated to minimize disruption to residents, with an early communication of the schedule to help them plan their day. Charter worked with residents to schedule necessary work inside units, such as window removal and reinstatement. The Project Manager monitored weather conditions closely to ensure proper application of deck coating. Despite the complexity of managing both this project and a pool and recreation building project for the client, careful oversight enabled both to be completed on time and within budget.

Upgrades for Longevity

The work to waterproof the exterior of the units was comprehensive, safeguarding against future water leaks and damage.
