Commercial Inspection Scope

The scope of work for a commercial inspection can vary based on the type of property, industry, and our client’s specific needs. However, here are some common scopes of work that are typically covered in a commercial inspection:

Structural Components

Evaluate the structural integrity of the building, including foundations, walls, columns, beams, and roofs.

Exterior Envelope

Inspect the exterior components, such as walls, windows, doors, and the overall building envelope, for signs of damage or deterioration.

Roofing System

Assess the condition of the roofing system, including materials, flashings, and drainage, and identify any leaks or potential issues.

Plumbing Systems

Examine plumbing systems, including supply lines, drainage systems, and fixtures, and identify any leaks or plumbing-related issues.

Electrical Systems

Evaluate the electrical systems, including wiring, panels, switches, and outlets to assess their condition, functionality, and potential safety concerns.

HVAC Systems

Inspect heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems to assess their condition, visible components, and general operating condition.

Interior Spaces

Assess the interior spaces, including walls, floors, and ceilings, and identify any issues related to finishes or structural elements.

Fire & Safety Systems

Review fire detection and suppression systems, emergency exits, and other life safety features to assess their presence, condition, and general functionality.

Environmental Hazards

Conduct a visual assessment for indicators of environmental concerns, such as mold, moisture intrusion, or other observable conditions that may indicate potential health risks.

Accessibility Compliance

Evaluate the property’s accessibility features as part of a Tier II assessment in accordance with the ASTM Property Condition Assessment (PCA) standard, including a visual review related to ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) considerations.

Parking & Site Considerations

Inspect parking areas, driveways, walkways, and the overall site layout for safety, accessibility, and proper drainage.

Records Review

Review relevant documents, permits, maintenance records, and available building plans for insights into the property's history.

Zoning Compliance

Report the property's current zoning designation based on available records.

Financial Considerations

Provide insights into the potential financial implications of identified issues, such as maintenance costs or required upgrades.
