Property Condition Assessments in Northborough, Massachusetts by Partner Engineering and Science adhere to the guidelines set forth in ASTM E2018. The dedicated team in Northborough comprises certified engineers, architects, and seasoned commercial building inspectors.
When commissioned for a Property Condition Assessment, Partner conducts a comprehensive evaluation of the property’s component systems, encompassing a visual scrutiny of the site, structures, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing, structural elements, exteriors, roofs, interior finishes, and overall amenities. This assessment encompasses an analysis of existing conditions, code compliance, life cycle costs, suitability for intended use, and identification of defects, based on the current appearance of the improvements.
Partner delves into on-site maintenance records, architectural plans, and future capital improvement proposals where applicable. Additionally, they examine building department records and engage in interviews with on-site engineering and management personnel. To ensure a thorough analysis and recommendations, comprehensive information about the site is provided by the Client.
The comprehensive report generated by Partner spans 15 to 30 pages and features an “Immediate Repairs Table,” listing critical issues like life safety concerns, failing building systems, and deferred maintenance, necessitating repairs or replacements exceeding $2,000. Furthermore, Partner prepares a “Replacement Capital Reserve Table,” estimating major capital expenses anticipated over the subsequent 12 years.
