Our Evaluation Scope

Our Evaluation Scope

San Diego County buildings vary by age, use, layout, and exposure to coastal or inland conditions. Our commercial building inspection services in San Diego County focus on the visible components that influence how the property functions today and what may need attention later.  

San Diego County buildings vary by age, use, layout, and exposure to coastal or inland conditions. Our commercial building inspection services in San Diego County focus on the visible components that influence how the property functions today and what may need attention later.  

Roof Evaluation

We review roof coverings, drainage points, flashing, penetrations, and visible surface conditions. For larger or harder-to-access roof areas, drone technology may help provide a wider view.  

Foundation & Structure Inspection

Our inspectors check accessible structural areas for cracking, movement, settlement patterns, moisture signs, and other visible conditions that may deserve further attention. 

Garage & Parking Structure

Parking areas, garages, paving, lighting, drainage, and access points are reviewed to help you better understand daily-use conditions around the property. 

Attic & Plenum Inspection

When accessible, attic and plenum spaces are reviewed for ventilation, insulation, moisture indicators, and visible electrical or mechanical concerns above finished areas.  

Exterior Spaces & Building Envelope

We inspect walls, doors, windows, trim, drainage paths, and other exterior details that help the property resist weather, moisture, and long-term wear.  

Interior Spaces & Tenant Improvements

Interior areas are reviewed for layout condition, finishes, ceilings, flooring, restrooms, and prior tenant improvements that may affect future use or updates. 

Electrical Components

We review visible panels, outlets, switches, fixtures, and related components to help identify concerns with the building’s power setup and visible electrical condition. 

Plumbing Supply & Water Systems

Our team checks fixtures, visible supply lines, drainage behavior, water-related staining, and other clues that may point to plumbing concerns.

HVAC System Check

We review heating, cooling, and ventilation equipment for operation, visible condition, airflow concerns, and maintenance clues that may affect comfort and energy use. 

Fire & Life Safety Assessment

Our inspectors look at visible fire and safety features, including exits, signage, access paths, and related components that help support safer occupancy. 

Basement / Crawlspace

When a basement or crawlspace is present, we check accessible areas for dampness, ventilation, structural visibility, pest clues, and conditions that may require attention.

Vertical Transportation

For buildings with elevators, lifts, or escalators, we review visible equipment areas and available service details to help you understand ongoing operation needs.  

Pool / Spa Inspection

For hotels, apartments, and multifamily properties, we assess pool and spa equipment, visible surfaces, safety features, and operating conditions. 

ADA Compliance Survey

We look for visible accessibility barriers around parking, entrances, pathways, restrooms, and common areas that may affect how people use the property.
