Pre-purchase inspection services

Our pre-purchase inspection services provide valuable insights into a building enclosure’s condition. Here’s how we help you make informed purchase decisions:

Condition Assessment

We conduct detailed assessments of the building enclosure, including document reviews, maintenance logs, on-site visual inspections, and, when needed, destructive investigations. You’ll receive our findings in a comprehensive report with recommendations and next steps.

Schematic Budgeting

Our team prepares order-of-magnitude estimates to support project planning, often in collaboration with trusted consultants. This report supports your capital planning efforts specific to purchase value and ownership responsibilities.

Reporting

Our deliverables include written reports with repair recommendations or suggested next steps. These detailed reports may feature marked-up photographs, drawings, sketches, and estimates to provide a thorough record of our findings.
