How do you view your building inspector?
The building inspector is a generalist and provides an overview of the present condition of the building. Experience and training provide the basis of their ability to detect potential problems in a building.
In many ways, your building inspector is a General Practitioner. The Building Inspector provides information to you so that a decision can be made whether or not a specialist is needed, whether corrective measures should be taken, or if the condition requires further monitoring.
So what will your building inspector look at?
- Plumbing
- HVAC units and duct work
- Floors and foundations
- Building structure
- Electrical
- Roofing
- Fire and security alarm systems
- Elevators and escalators
Just like the human body, a building must be maintained on a regular basis. A well-kept workplace can result in higher performance, less absenteeism and a safer place to work for employees.
