Property Condition Assessments
Property Condition Assessments for Your Commercial Building
Central Florida Building Inspectors provides comprehensive Property Condition Assessments (PCA) for commercial properties in Central Florida. Our inspections are meticulously conducted following the industry-standard ASTM E2018-08, ensuring a reliable and consistent evaluation of your property’s physical condition.
What Does a PCA Inspection Cover?
- Building Envelope: A thorough evaluation of the roof system, including its materials, drainage, and flashings. We’ll also inspect the exterior walls, foundation, and waterproofing for signs of wear, damage, or leaks.
- Structural Systems: We assess the integrity of the building’s structural components, including foundations, framing, beams, and columns, to identify potential safety hazards or areas requiring reinforcement.
- Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) Systems: Our inspectors examine the functionality and condition of your heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC), electrical, and plumbing systems. We’ll identify any outdated components, potential safety concerns, or areas requiring maintenance or upgrades.
- Life Safety Systems: We ensure your property complies with fire safety codes, evaluating fire alarms, sprinkler systems, emergency exits, and accessibility features.
- Interior Finishes: A comprehensive inspection of interior finishes, such as walls, ceilings, floors, and doors, to identify damage, deterioration, or code violations.
Site Features: For commercial properties, we assess the condition of parking lots, driveways, landscaping, and other exterior improvements.
What Does a PCA Inspection Report Include?
- Detailed Findings: A clear and concise report outlining the condition of each major building system, including photographic documentation of any deficiencies.
- Prioritized Recommendations: Our report will prioritize identified issues based on severity and potential impact, providing a roadmap for repairs and future maintenance planning.
- Estimated Repair Costs (Optional): We can provide non-binding cost estimates for identified repairs to aid in budgeting and decision-making (additional service and cost).
- Code Compliance Review: The report will highlight any areas that may not comply with current building codes or safety regulations. We are not code or ADA certified inspectors however our years of experience will help you gain an understanding of what may come up during an evaluation.
