LIGHT COMMERCIAL INSPECTIONS
Light Commercial Inspections
Commercial buildings often involve higher investment, larger systems, and greater liability—making a professional inspection essential. A Light Commercial Inspection from 214 Home Inspections provides a clear understanding of a property’s overall condition, helping buyers, owners, and investors make informed business decisions. These inspections are ideal for offices, retail spaces, warehouses, and small industrial buildings up to 10,000 square feet.
Each inspection evaluates the property’s major components and systems to identify deficiencies, maintenance concerns, or safety hazards that could affect operation or value. Reports are delivered in a clear, organized digital format with photographs, findings, and recommendations prioritized for planning and budgeting.
What’s Included
Light Commercial Inspections are tailored to the property type and intended use but generally include a detailed visual assessment of:
Structure and Foundation: Framing, walls, floors, ceilings, and visible supports.
Roofing System: Materials, flashing, drainage, and overall condition.
Exterior Components: Siding, doors, windows, grading, and site drainage.
Electrical System: Panels, wiring, lighting, and compliance with safety standards.
Plumbing System: Supply lines, fixtures, water heaters, and visible drain piping.
HVAC Systems: Heating, cooling, and ventilation equipment functionality.
Interior Spaces: Restrooms, office areas, common spaces, and finishes.

Understand the current condition and estimated lifespan of major systems.
Identify deferred maintenance or hidden structural issues.
