While it’s impossible to provide an all-inclusive list, a partial list is below. If your answer isn’t here, please ask us and we’ll get it published for the next person who may be wondering.
Roof: The association is responsible for roof repairs and replacement, unless the roof was altered to construct a chimney that was not original to the development.
Interior Damage from Roof Leak: The association is responsible for interior repairs if the damage resulted from a roof leak the association is responsible for.
Gutters & Downspouts: The association is responsible for repairs, replacement and cleaning of gutters and downspouts.
Plumbing: Plumbing is a homeowner responsibility to maintain, and there are no plumbing systems common to the association.
Sewer Back-Up: Sewer back-ups are a homeowner responsibility to clear or repair if exclusive to one unit. If more than one unit is affected, it is an association responsibility. If you are unsure, Bores Plumbing & Sewer Service at 314-352-8022 or AA Quick Plumbing & Sewer at 314-429-7131 should be called. If it turns out to be a shared line affected, you can be reimbursed if you submit a receipt to us from one of these two companies. The association will not reimburse overages for after-hours emergency calls, but will cover standard service costs. If a lateral collapse occurs, the City of Maryland Heights should be called for repair to be covered by their sewer lateral program.
Siding: The association is responsible for repair and replacement of siding.
Exterior Doors & Doorframes: Homeowners are responsible for repair and replacement, but the association provides periodic painting of the exterior side.
Windows & Screens: Windows and window screens are homeowner responsibility to maintain and repair. If windows are replaced, they must be aesthetically identical to the original windows, except basement windows where glass-block windows can be approved.
Light Fixtures: Homeowners are responsible to repair and replace light fixtures.
Foundation: The association is responsible for the structural stability of the foundation and repairing any cracks or defects. This does not include water infiltration due to hydrostatic pressure in areas that were not finished by the developer. If hydrostatic pressure causes water infiltration in an area that was originally unfinished, it’s the homeowner’s responsibility to install a drain and sump pump system.
Exterior Painting: The association is responsible for and provides periodic painting of exterior wood surfaces.
Garage Doors: Homeowners are responsible for repair and replacement of garage doors.

All other chimneys are not original to development and are the full responsibility of those homeowners to maintain and repair as needed.
Patios: Homeowners are responsible for repairs and replacement of patios, unless the patio slab is still the slab original to the development. Because the original slabs were very small, most of them have been replaced over the years, and are thus now homeowner responsibility.
Decks: Homeowners are responsible for repairs and replacement of decks and deck materials.
Lawn Care: The association provides lawn care, except for areas a homeowner has enclosed with a fence.
Snow Removal: Snow removal is provided by the association for driveways. The city plows the public streets. Homeowners are responsible to remove snow from the walkways that lead to their porches if desired. Unless snow accumulation is greater than 2 inches the Board will decide whether snow should be removed or not. Homeowners should be prepared to remove lesser snowfall from their own property if desired.
