A Structural Building Inspection focuses solely on the structural soundness of key elements of the building seeking to identify structural defects that might impact the integrity of the building.

Our Structural Inspections include, subject to reasonable access:
  • Roof frame
  • Load bearing walls
  • Subfloor structures
  • Concrete slab/footings
  • Safety hazards
