Commercial Building Engineer

Our Commercial Building Inspections are done by a single experienced building inspector or by a team of inspectors. We often deploy teams of 3 to 6 inspectors. The team will always be captained by our senior building inspector and may include sub-specialists; such as a Structural Engineer, an HVAC specialist, an energy auditor, an ADA Inspector, and/or a Licensed Elevator Inspector. The benefits of sub-specialists are great. For example, our building inspector may have inspected thousands of elevators in his or her career, but without an elevator inspector's license, he will not be able to open the shaft and inspect beneath the cab.

Essential Building Inspection Report Findings

Regardless of the level of Commercial Building Inspection (Property Condition Report) ordered, our inspector will find:

  • Inadequate design
  • Improper maintenance or worn systems
  • Equipment nearing the end of its useful life
  • Building code violations
  • Poor workmanship

Most of our clients request a standard narrative Property Condition Report. The narrative report discusses each building system and will describe all of the significant concerns or defects that were found during the inspection. Each report will include a table of immediate repairs and a table of replacement reserves over the desired reserve period.

Let us help you avoid the physical risks associated with investing in a commercial property.
