Commercial Inspections

Commercial property inspections are a general overview of all major systems and components present in the building including the structure, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, exterior and interior (similar to the complete home inspection).  Light commercial inspections include low-rise office complexes, apartment complexes, investment properties, restaurants, warehouses, churches, motels, resorts, and other types of buildings.

• Access to the roof is expected and necessary to complete the inspection.
• Commercial appliances, dishwashing units, and refrigeration units are excluded from commercial property inspections in restaurants and in other facilities.
• Codes and regulations for commercial kitchens in restaurants and in other facilities vary from county to county and therefore we recommended that you contact the local health inspector for compliances.
• A building manager or designated representative is beneficial to gain access to all areas during the inspection.

A comprehensive, narrative style commercial property inspection report is issued to the client within 72-48 hours of the conclusion of the inspection. This custom report will include digital photos and a summary page of items that require major repair or further investigation.
