Why Building Inspections Are Important Post-Construction
There’s a reason why we tell business owners not to rest easy after the final brick is laid for a construction project! In order for your business to reopen successfully, there are a few obstacles that you’ll need to overcome. While there is still plenty of paperwork to fill out and marketing preparations to be made, one aspect of the post-construction process cannot be overlooked - the building inspection! It’s one of the most important things you can complete before your business reopens, and we’ll explain exactly why below!
They’ll Allow You To Find Out Future Problems
Before a business can get to the process of reopening, they need to make sure that their property is in the perfect condition to do so. Having a building inspection performed will allow inspectors to unearth things that may turn into potential problems in the future. It will enable them to see things like structural defects that could be detrimental down the road, drainage issues, or issues with your building's energy systems (like an HVAC unit). It’s wise to address these concerns sooner rather than later to avoid a worst-case scenario.
They’ll Tell You What You Need To Repair
A building inspector has the same goal for your business as you do: for it to operate successfully without lingering problems after construction. If you hire a good building inspector, they will have decades of experience identifying the problems with new construction builds and give expert advice as to how you can fix them. By the time the inspection is complete, you’ll have a detailed list of everything that you need to repair before you can reopen. Dealing with these concerns now will avoid massive headaches later on.
It Ensures That Your Building Is Compliant
Having a building that isn’t up to code can balloon into a huge issue. It could lead to potential lawsuits as well as big fines from your city for not noticing them. Ensuring that your building is compliant with local codes is paramount. Not only does it give your clients a positive first impression of your business, but it prevents you from having to pay costly fees to get your building up to code. Following the rules is the simplest way to ensure a successful business reopening, and a building inspection is a surefire way of making this happen.
