Building Assessment

Before you buy, renovate or budget for repairs, we tell you what condition the building is in, what needs attention now and what can wait.

Our approach

Our assessments combine on-site inspection with engineering judgement across the structure, the envelope and the mechanical and electrical systems. The result is a clear report with priorities and cost estimates, written so that owners, buyers, lenders and condominium boards can act on it.

What we deliver

Building condition assessments

Inspection of structure, envelope, roofing and building systems, with prioritized recommendations.

Reserve fund studies

Long-term repair and replacement plans and funding forecasts for condominium corporations.

Property due diligence

Condition reports for purchasers, lenders and investors before a transaction closes.

Structural inspections

Investigation of cracks, deflection, settlement and damage, with repair recommendations.

Envelope and roof assessments

Review of walls, windows, roofs and air barriers to find the source of leaks and heat loss.

Parking garage surveys

Concrete testing and corrosion assessment for slabs, ramps and columns.

Thermal imaging

Infrared surveys that reveal missing insulation, air leakage and moisture.

Accessibility audits

Review against current accessibility requirements, with practical upgrade options.

How it works

  1. Document review

    Drawings, previous reports and maintenance records are gathered and reviewed.

  2. On-site inspection

    Our engineers inspect the building and carry out testing where needed.

  3. Analysis and costing

    Findings are prioritized and repair costs are estimated.

  4. Report and follow-up

    You receive a clear report, and we can design and manage the repairs.
