COMMERCIAL BUILDING INSPECTIONS

Our commercial building assessments are designed around your needs and the individual building. Each inspection is taken very seriously and adapted to the situation. For instance, if you are buying a multi-family building or an office building, working around tenants and being respectful of their space, and giving proper notice is something that we take into consideration. When inspecting commercial kitchens or hotels, inspecting in off-hours is preferable, whereas inspecting parking garages and warehouses gives us some more flexibility.

How we go about our inspections is also dependent upon your needs as our client. We encourage you to speak with us beforehand so we can better understand what the building is being used for now, what it will be used for in the future, and any concerns that you may have.

That being said, being able to enumerate the thousands of components and factors that we take in during your commercial building inspection is difficult at best. Below is a list of just some of the basic items that we cover on a standard property assessment.
