COMMERCIAL INSPECTIONS

Our team of certified commercial inspectors is cross-certified in multiple inspection disciplines and equipped with the latest technology, offering clients a wide range of services.

Our Commercial ADA Assessment evaluates your property against the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design, from parking and entrances to restrooms, elevators and signage. We document conditions with measurements and photos, identify accessibility barriers, and give owners, managers and buyers clear findings to plan and prioritize next steps.

Due Diligence Inspections

Our customized commercial inspections are entirely tailored to our client's needs. The scope of work can range from a single item inspection, the building envelope, to a more in-depth assessment requiring one or more commercial inspectors and one or more of our specialists who provide expertise in a specific building system or element.

Lenders often require property condition assessments (PCAs) to ensure properties are in good condition and mitigate risk. Factors influencing the need for a PCA include loan amount, property value, age, and condition, as well as environmental concerns and regulatory requirements. PCAs are especially crucial for high-value, older properties with complex systems or in environmentally risky areas.

Thermal Imaging

Opinion of Probable Cost

Specialty Services

A thermal imaging inspection uses advanced infrared technology to detect hidden issues such as moisture intrusion, electrical problems, and insulation deficiencies. This non-invasive method provides a detailed view of temperature variations, identifying potential problems not visible to the naked eye.

Building Envelope

Sewer Scope Inspection

A repair-cost opinion added to your property condition assessment, so you can budget and negotiate with clear numbers for the items we find.

Sewer scope inspections involve a detailed inspection of your property's sewer lines using a specialized camera. This allows us to identify blockages, damage, or potential issues in the plumbing system, helping prevent costly repairs and ensuring smooth operation.

Mold Inspection

Mold inspection and testing involve sampling and analyzing areas of your property to detect the presence of mold spores. Early detection and identification of mold types are crucial for addressing potential health risks and preventing property damage.

Our inspectors leverage advanced drone and infrared technology to thoroughly evaluate your building's exterior, roofing, and structural components. Our thorough assessments identify potential issues before they escalate, helping to maintain safety and energy efficiency.

Roof Inspection

Our commercial roof inspections provide a detailed assessment of your roofing system to identify leaks, structural damage, and wear. Using advanced tools and techniques, we help prevent costly repairs and extend the roof's lifespan, ensuring it remains in optimal condition.
