When the AOAO’s general manager reported leaks from the rooftop AC equipment tower into the penthouse units below, Aiello responded immediately on an emergency basis to identify the source. His inspection showed the leaks were caused not by the AC equipment, but by failures in the roof membrane and scupper system across the roof.

At the client’s request, Aiello promptly prepared a Scope of Repairs (SOR) and contract documents to define the project. Those documents, together with his strong trade relationships, helped secure a highly competitive price from a roofing contractor able to mobilize quickly. Repair work began within three weeks of the initial call.

Aiello Design Group works with a cadre of Structural Engineers specializing in Settlement and Expansion Crack Repair, Concrete Spall Repair, Post Pocket Water Penetration Repair and General Concrete Reconditioning Projects.  

 As Project Manager, Aiello assesses the extent of damage and provides the client with an initial budget estimate and project schedule. He coordinates the preparation of engineered construction documents for building permits, trade cost negotiations, and construction. During construction, he produces inspection reports with photographic and written documentation for the client’s records. A project closeout report is also provided at completion. .

 The GM requested an assessment of what was believed to be a leak in the pool shell. The pool, located on a raised recreation deck above retail spaces, had been leaking for months. After reviewing the construction drawings, construction photos, and other documentation, Aiello determined that the source was not the pool shell. Instead, the leaks were caused by nearby failed membranes in raised planters, allowing water to migrate between the recreation deck surface and the structural slab. Invasive inspection and dye testing confirmed the leak source and helped guide the repair approach. 

A condo-hotel attorney requested an ADA assessment of the property. Because the building was constructed in the 1960s, access to the main lobby did not meet current DOJ ADAAG standards. ADG’s solution included adjusting access-route gradients, installing a chair lift, updating signage, and revising parking layouts and striping. Construction was completed within a 30-day schedule with minimal disruption to hotel guests, and the project was finished on time and within budget.

The corrective measures met court standards and satisfied the AOAO, the hotel operator, and the attorneys involved.

The GM requested a proposal for roofing condition assessment, development of a Scope of Repair (SOR), bid documentation, bidding support, and administrative services during construction.

ADG coordinates with roofing consultants and reputable roofing contractors to evaluate your needs and provide a timely, equitable bid proposal for Board review and consideration.

Built in 1928, this two-mile man-made waterway has presented ongoing challenges for the City and State since its construction. Today, deteriorating conditions in the basalt rock revetment and foundation failures have severely damaged the concrete promenade along its length. Additional concerns include life safety hazards and known ADA violations.

To address the fall hazard of more than 30 inches to the water, ADG proposed a handicap-friendly guardrail system along the full length of the Ala Wai Canal.
