Structural and Mechanical Inspection. This is the most common pre-purchase combination and looks at all aspects of the accessible structure in the same way that a structural only inspection will. The purpose of the mechanical inspection is to visually inspect and operate the built-in mechanical equipment observed on site and provide an opinion of any deficiencies apparent at the time of the inspection. The scope of this inspection includes visual observations of the mechanical equipment and appliances without disassembly of any unit inspected and without removing items causing visual obstruction. clients may have specific needs.

This type of inspection is intended to evaluate the condition of the foundation, roof, and structure of the building in order to provide information related to their condition and an opinion as to whether they are in need of repair. The data obtained and included in this type of report will provide insight into the overall condition of the property and information that will assist in maintaining it in the best possible condition during future years. The scope of this inspection includes visual observations of those portions of the foundation, roof, and structural components readily visible without moving or removing items causing visual obstruction.
Foundation Inspection. This type of inspection is intended to evaluate the condition of the foundation in order to provide information related to its condition and provide an opinion as to whether or not it is in need of repair.

Construction Quality Inspection. The purpose of this inspection is to make visual on-site observations of the workmanship evident in the construction of the building foundation. The information collected will be used as a basis for an opinion of the apparent quality of workmanship which will be provided in this report. A list of the observed irregularities and suspected defects will be provided as a part of the report. There will also be a separate list of some of the most significant irregularities, even though the irregularities may not be very important. Most of the observed irregularities will be in need of repair or correction to some extent, but it is suggested that the extent and need for repair be discussed with the general contractor responsible for the construction of the property. The list of anomalies is not claimed to be the complete list of irregularities that exist, but a representative list used to form the opinion which is the basis for this inspection. On-site visual observations will be made of the foundation construction preparations and installations with the intent of determining the apparent quality of the foundation and the workmanship related to the construction. This inspection does not include review of the building design or design of any component of the building either completed or planned as of the time of the inspection.
