Inspection Services

Inspecting is more than just ‘looking around.’

Inspection isn’t flipping a few light switches, reading some measurements, and filling out the paperwork. Instead, it’s about discovering the critical information needed to know if the property is structurally sound. SGA Inspection Inc. specializes in thorough property inspections.

Customer Testimonials:

Latest Technology

We also use the latest International Residential Code (IRC) standards to inspect the oldest structures. Old homes are not expected to meet today’s standards. It’s important for a buyer to understand what these differences may be in order to appreciate, understand and, if necessary, correct or update an older building. Old doors may not have safety glass. Electrical systems may not have updated grounding or shock protection.

Honest Reports

We’re here to ensure buyers are provided with a detailed and honest list of the condition of their home. We give an easy to read and implement inspection report. This report gives information on the grounds, landscaping, foundation, roof, residence, and chimneys. All this data, when looked at together, gives an accurate look at what’s going on with the home.

We Love What We Do

We perform these services because we love the history and tales homes, particularly historic homes have to tell. Older homes have a lot of stories to tell. We’re all about sharing a building’s history with clients and helping preserve it for future generations.

About Baseline Commercial Property Inspections

A baseline commercial property inspection (referred to as a Property Condition Assessment or PCA by the standards set forth by the American Society for Testing and Materials) relies on a walk-through survey, document review, and interviews to determine the property’s condition – all performed by a our professional inspectors. The results of the PCA are reported in a Property Condition Report (PCR). The report includes information obtained from the PCA.

This information assists owners and buyers in understanding operation and maintenance required and also helps provide confidence to prospective investors.

The scope of the inspection needed and the specific areas to be inspected are based on various factors. Age, occupancy and type of construction are considered when determining how the property will be inspected and the performance criteria needed to complete a quality inspection. Inspections can range from a visual examination of the property, to a comprehensive inspection of all the building’s technical components.
