Looking to buy or lease that commercial space? Getting an unbiased inspection is key to helping you understand what you are investing in.

A commercial inspection is a complete review of the property. This includes an overall review of the property exterior and all interior systems of the space/building. We help identify future problems to inform you of potential immediate or future cost. This will include a detailed report and an overview of deficiencies with you at the end of the inspection. 

Pricing for inspection will depend on size and application. Please call for quote.

“I recently had an inspection done for my shop by Gerry, and I am extremely impressed with the service. Gerry was very thorough, professional, and dedicated to ensuring that everything was checked meticulously. He took the time to explain every step of the process and answered all of my questions with patience and clarity. His attention to detail gave me complete confidence that everything was in order. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable inspector.”
