Why Commercial Property Inspection Matters in Calgary Alberta

Throughout its retail unit, office building, industrial warehouse, or mixed-use space, there are individual systems and possible weaknesses in every commercial property. The weather of Alberta and the growth of business areas, as well as the rise in rent in such cities as Calgary and Edmonton, place further stress on building materials and mechanical systems.

Skipping a professional inspection can lead to:

Problems that are structural in nature and deteriorate with time.

  • HVAC issues which increase operating expenses.

  • Safety hazards associated with electrical hazards.

  • Decomposition of roof due to freeze-thaw cycles of Alberta.

  • Aging commercial units have plumbing and drainage problems.

  • Occupancy/insurance code violations.

Spot On complies with certified commercial building inspection and will make you aware of what the real state of the property is.

1. Exterior & Structural Assessment

We closely inspect the building:

  • Linear and Resistance to Settling.

  • Outside plastering, siding and cladding.

  • Roofing systems (such as flat roofs used in the commercial areas)

  • Walkways and drainage, parking lots.

  • Dock loading and warehouse doors loading.

  • Compliance with local standards of safety.

Drone technology is applied by our inspectors in cases where they have to inspect roofs and inaccessible spots. In Alberta, it is challenging to construct the exterior of buildings, and this is why the local experience assists buyers in understanding long-term structural and moisture issues.

2. Interior Systems & Safety Components

Business interiors differ considerably with type of business hence we evaluate:

  • Walls, ceilings & floors

  • Fire safety systems

  • Accessibility & exit in case of an emergency.

  • Internal construction elements.

  • Level of moisture and humidity.

The inspectors of Spot On explain all the findings in plain and simple language that is easy to understand so that you can make the correct choice.

Such systems are essential in commercial premises since they have a direct influence on energy expenses, performance, and the cost in the long-term. Our team evaluates:

  • Wiring integrity, electrical panels.

  • The heating systems appropriate to Alberta winters.

  • Air conditioning systems & ventilation.

  • Commercial HVAC units

  • Boilers, furnaces and mechanical rooms.

  • Performance temperature control panels & thermostats.

Numerous companies in Calgary, Edmonton and Red Deer have old mechanical systems that need repairs or upgrades which we can inspect and know about them earlier and you can determine approximate costs of the future but not before.

4. Plumbing, Drainage & Water Systems

We check all plumbing parts which include:

  • Supply lines & drain systems

  • Pressure systems and hot water tanks.

  • Washrooms and condition of fixtures (Commercial).

  • Drains and pumping sumps in the basement.

Water losses can be expensive and inconvenient to the business activities and our inspectors will make sure that there is no untapped plumbing or moisture problem.

Specialty roofing like EPDM, TPO, modified bitumen membranes is common in commercial property. Our inspection includes:

  • Roofing material condition

  • Flashing & seal integrity

  • Insulation performance

  • Leaks, sagging, and deterioration.

The maintenance of the roof is very important in the climate of Alberta especially during freeze-thaw periods.
