Depending on your needs, you can choose from our comprehensive list of services.
- Pre-purchasing and re-financing reports. Investing in a new building or refinancing your current building means you need to know the full picture about any issues, their urgency, plus associated future costs.
- Pre-lease and end-of-lease assessments. Our condition surveys can protect you and your tenant. Managing expectations on all sides will help you enjoy a trouble-free leasing experience and can mean a smooth leasing renewal with existing tenants.
- Pre-construction surveys and post-construction surveys on neighbouring buildings. Constructing a new building can have an effect on neighbouring properties unless properly planned. A Egis building condition assessment can help you manage potential risks so that nearby owners don’t come knocking for damage payments later on.
- Environmental assessments (both Phase 1 and Phase 2 as per CSA and MOECC) Standards). Making a financial decision can be challenging when you’re not aware of a building’s full history. A residential building may be built on the site of a former dry-cleaning business, for example. With soil and other environmental tests, you’ll know about any conditions that may put you at risk for future cleanup costs.
- Capital planning. Upkeep costs may be inevitable, but timing expenditures can help create financial breathing room and even reduce costs overall. Performing property condition assessments helps you make smart maintenance decisions so that you preserve the value of your property without needless spending.
- Accessibility audits. Provincial regulations, like the Ontarians with Disabilities Act, help ensure that everyone can safely use any large building. If you don’t know if your building complies, finding out sooner can help avoid fines.
- Fire safety plans and reviews. Having an easy-to-follow fire safety plan is essential to avoid severe problems or tragedies and prevent potential legal situations. No matter which way you look at it, it just costs less to follow the rules.
Our surveys can cover everything from the building envelope, mechanical systems and recreational amenities like swimming pools to soil/groundwater conditions. We can also include additional evaluations, for example, performance audits for energy efficiency on request.
