Commercial Property Inspections in Baltimore: What Investors and Owners Need to Know

1 min read

Commercial property inspections operate on a different level of scope and complexity than residential inspections. Whether you’re acquiring an investment property, retail space, or multi-unit rental, a professional commercial inspection is one of the most important due diligence steps you can take.

What Makes Commercial Inspections Different

  • Roof systems are often larger, more complex, and more costly — flat commercial roofs, EPDM membranes, built-up roofing
  • HVAC systems may include rooftop units and complex control systems
  • Electrical systems often involve three-phase power and higher amperage services
  • Environmental concerns — asbestos, underground storage tanks, lead paint — are common in older Baltimore commercial stock

What We Cover in a Commercial Inspection

  • Complete roof evaluation — membrane, drainage, penetrations, parapet walls
  • Structural assessment — foundation, floor systems, load-bearing walls
  • Exterior envelope — masonry, windows, sealants, grading
  • Mechanical systems — HVAC type and condition, boilers, chillers
  • Electrical systems — service entrance, main and sub-panels, visible wiring
  • Plumbing — supply and drainage systems, water service
  • Fire protection systems — sprinklers, standpipes, extinguishers
